Re:  Acupuncture

I have been experiencing numbness and pain in both my arms for approximately 6 months.  I was told that I suffered from carpal tunnel and that if the condition got worse I would require surgery.

In conversation with a friend of mine, he indicated that he was taking acupuncture treatments for some of his ailments, from Dr. Liu in Regina that was a world wide expert in acupuncture. 

I told my husband what my friend was doing and my husband’s response to me was “why don’t you try acupuncture for your carpal tunnel problems.”  I immediately called his office and made an appointment.  When I went to Dr. Liu’s office he introduced me to the pulse test, a test that he performed on the pulse of each wrist.  He then went onto tell me what I suffered from.  I must say, I was surprised, as what he advised was problems that I have suffered from for years.

1.  Muscle tightness & stiffness in upper body, neck and arms

      2.  Weak immune system

      3.  Weak pulse that causing cold feet and hands

We then went onto discuss the treatments, and how long it would take for my system to be tree of these conditions.  Dr. Lu suggested treatments everyday for 15 days and then the condition would be gone, but I would notice relief after a couple of treatments.

I started the treatments, was nervous about the needles and found them to be painless, the numbness, the tingling in my hands & arms was gone after 4 treatments, and I have not experienced any problems since.

The stiffness in my neck and upper body is gone.  I am experiencing more movement and rotation of the neck than I have experienced in 5 years.  In addition to these, I had him treat my sinuses as I experienced a cold when I was going to him, he treated my sinuses and I feel I have recovered from the common cold quicker than I have at other times.

After experiencing, these positive results, I would have acupuncture treatments for anything else that I was diagnosed with.

I found Dr. Liu to be extremely knowledgeable and professional in his diagnoses, treatment and explaining the benefits of acupuncture and how it works.

I would recommend that anyone visit Dr. Liu for a consultation and a treatment to experience the positive outcome for themselves.  I am very grateful for Dr. Liu and the improvements it has made to my health.
