After visitng any number of medical specialists from January, 2011 to June 2011, and having been subjected to every test in the book, I still had no diagnosis for my low hemoglobin and my swollen hands and feet. The swelling in my hands became so severe I had to have my rings cut off. In desperation, in June I began going to a highly recommended acupuncturist. After the 4th treatment, I started to see improvement and the improvement continued. In October I decided to keep the appointment that had been made for me with a rheumatologist in August even though I was now quite comfortable as a result of the acupuncture. The diagnosis was rheumatoid arthritis. I understand there is not a cure for R.A. but I am very satisfied with the level of comfort acupuncture has given me. I am now on a mild medication for R.A. that I am hoping will maintain that level without damaging my liver or my only kidney. If it does not, I will return to acupuncture, even though it is an out-of-pocket expense. My medical plan, as most, refuses to reimburse the cost of acupuncture which I feel was my salvation.

My main reason for contacting Christine was to try acupuncture to treat my infertility issues (amenorrhea/chronic anovulation) with the hopes of becoming pregnant. Upon my initial visit with Christine, she sought out a very detailed past medical history, along with signs/symptoms I had been experiencing. Although my main focus, was on "having a baby," Christine's main focus was on treating me as a "whole" versus one issue, as I had multiple issues going (mainly gastrointestinal) on when I first started going to Christine. I spent a year seeing Christine receiving acupuncture treatments and trying various herbal teas. Each and every time I met with Christine, which was sometimes twice a week, she was always very personable, eager to hear what was going on with me, and individualized my treatment plan with my current issues. For example, in the course of the year there were times I had sinus/cold/flu issues going on, so Christine would treat those symptoms and within a day or two I was often feeling better. She was always happy to answer all my questions, offer many resources for me to read, and to seek other opinions regarding answers to questions/treatment options. Christine was very flexible with her schedule accommodating my work schedule and appointment needs. Although the end result was not a pregnancy, all the gastrointestinal issues were resolved. I would highly recommend White Lily Acupuncture to anyone who is seeking acupuncture as an alternative therapy. If I were to ever seek acupuncture again, I would without a doubt go back to see Christine.

I started to see Christine at the lowest point in my life as I was dealing with Chronic Lyme Disease and could no longer work.  (I tried acupuncture a year or two earlier with a different person but did not feel comfortable with it.)

My experience with Christine has been so overwhelmingly positive that it is difficult to describe how much she has helped me.  First of all, her training and background help to give her a wide range of knowledge that she is able to share in a very gently and caring way.  Over the past 8 months, I have felt that she has been a special angel that is there to listen to me and that she truly cares about my progress as she has worked to help me.

Treatment for Chronic Lyme Disease involves long term use of several strong doses of antibiotics everyday, which in itself is not easy on the body.  Christine's knowledge and kindness have made my treatments so much easier, and I am much stronger and able to enjoy my family and friends so much more than I was when I first walked into Christine's office.

I have highly recommended Christine's services to my friends.  Christine provides an exceptional acupuncture service for a wide variety of needs and she does this in a way that allows the patient to feel safe and comfortable.  She has been a "miracle worker" in my life and I am very grateful to her for all that she has done to help me.

Thanks Christine for all the ways that you are helping me to continue to heal!

I met Christine while looking for a treatment that would get rid of an overuse sports injury in my elbow. I had tried so many different styles of treatments before coming to her and did not see any improvement. 
Acupuncture was one of the only things that helped a nagging injury.  The care and attention she gave me with each treatment, along with my injury improving had me coming regularly even after the injury had healed.  Christine’s treatments also have helped to create balance in my life in so many ways from stress, hormonal balance, helping with sleep and much more.  I really look forward to seeing Christine and receiving her treatments.  I am so grateful for her help, what she brings to each treatment and how much she has helped me.

“I went to Christine after experiencing a miscarriage the year before.  My doctors would not say why I had a miscarriage, but they did diagnose me with low progesterone during that pregnancy.  Despite taking progesterone supplements for a few months when trying again, I was not getting pregnant right away like I did the first time.  I met with Christine, and she had me chart my temperatures which did in fact confirm some hormone imbalances.  After seeing Christine for two months for acupuncture and taking prescribed herbs from her, I am happy to say I got pregnant again and all is going great.  I am 15 weeks along, and I firmly believe that my treatment through Christine was a strong factor in having a successful pregnancy this time around.”

continue on through untamed grasses
with trusted blade and beast,
with a crust about the soul,
but I stand fast in these very footprints
at the cusp of looming pins
for a glimpse of a whisper,
