I want to share a story that’s close to my heart—a story of hope, perseverance, and a little bit of magic. It’s the story of Mary, and her journey is nothing short of a miracle.

Rheumatoid Arthritis: From Desperation to Hope

When Mary first came to our clinic, you could see the pain written all over her face. Her joints were hot, yet frozen—she couldn’t lift her arms, and even walking was a struggle. The sudden, debilitating pain hit her over the summer, disrupting the active retirement life she loved as an infamous snowbird—biking, golfing, hiking, and more. Desperate for help, she faced a long wait to see a specialist. That’s when she found us.

We worked together withacupuncture, electroacupunctureandFrequency Specific Microcurrent, peeling back the layers of inflammation one by one. There were good days and bad days, but over time, the bad days turned into better days. It wasn’t easy, but Mary was determined. Now, just a few months later, I’m thrilled to say she’s back to hiking, biking, and truly living again.The pain no longer controls her—she's in charge now.
