Review content:
Nearly two years ago, I fell on a job related field trip. I completely severed one ligament and tore others in my knee . The injury resulted in intense rounds of physical therapy, surgery to repair and replace those ligaments followed by months of more physical therapy.\r
Although the physical therapy was wonderful as I regained a lot of strength in the knee and leg. But a constant throbbing pain remained and after sitting for long periods of time I was and still experience a great deal of pain when I stand and attempt to walk. Let me say here that I almost always refuse to take medication to alleviate the pain, I chose to either suffer through the pain or use herbal ointments, ice, heat, etc.\r
While attending a class at Portland Community College my teacher noticed the pain and difficulty I had when standing and walking during and after class, she suggested I try either acupuncture or chiropractic treatments. I then spoke to Dr. Bowman my Orthopedic Specialist and he agreed that I should try acupuncture. I was at first frightened because all I knew about acupuncture was that needles were inserted in different parts of your body to relieve all sorts of maladies and the thought of being ?stuck ?with needles was something I would never do. \r
My next thought was that I am a 56 yr old African American woman who grew up hearing and knowing about the power of herbs, roots, and ingesting things that may have traditionally been used in cooking or taking a bath in. So knowing that those old remedies were quite successful thought that I would try another non-traditional treatment hence the call to Inner Gate Acupuncture and am now a very willing client of Eric Isaacman, L.Ac.\r
Let me first say that I was never so wrong thinking the needles would cause a lot of pain, it is absolutely nothing like a shot from a needle traditionally found in medical offices or hospitals. The needles are as thin as a thread and are virtually painless.\r
Thanks to Eric, his skill with the instruments and techniques he learned from the masters in China I no longer have the throbbing pain in my knee. I still have pain when I sit for long periods of time, but with the continued therapy, other techniques he is attempting and massages the pain is lessening.\r
I whole-heartedly recommend acupuncture to any and everyone. Whatever your illness or malady, Try It ! No matter your fears, forget them, Try It. Call them for a consultation, you will be surprised at the results.
Pros: This is the first time in 2 yrs I am almost pain free
Cons: Only that I can not receive treatment everyday
