Heart

The heart is an amazing thing. We all know its very important to take care of it and most of us by now know that if we don't, we face such things as heart disease.
12 more treatments

I wanted to just remind everyone that if you have Health Partners or BCBS, as of the 1st of the calendar year, your acupuncture coverage starts over. You get a fresh 12. If you haven't had acupuncture before, this is a good time to try it out.
A few examples of covered conditions are: headaches and migraines, joint pain, back pain, premenstrual syndromes, and nausea. Call today to see if your condition or symptoms are covered.

Disc Herniation w ith numbness in fingers
I have experienced chronic neck pain due to disc herniation since 2002. I have had 3 MRI's taken. I have also had periodic episodes of numbness in my first 3 fingers on my right hand. Since undergoing acupuncture the numbness in my fingers has dissipated. The constant pain in my upper back and neck is less severe and less frequent. My sleep is better. My overall quality of life has improved significantly.

Chronic low back pain and wrist pain
Initially I came to Christine because I had pain in my lower back and pain in both my wrists due to arthritis. Christine treated my lower back pain and my wrist pain and after the first treatment I started to feel better. Now my back is feeling pretty well and my balance has also improved. The inflammation, sharp shooting pains from my wrists, and slight shakiness in my hands have also decreased since starting acupuncture.
At the time of starting acupuncture, I was and currently am, working with a physical trainer to strengthen my shoulder. My trainer suggested I try acupuncture along with his help to address my shoulder and since using both, it has greatly decreased the pain, my range of motion has improved and I have regained most of my strength in that arm and shoulder.
I am very pleased with the results I have gotten from acupuncture. I would suggest trying it out for back pain or other pain you may be experiencing. It has really helped me.

Shoulder pain
I went to see Christine after I hurt my shoulder playing volleyball. It hurt constantly and I was having trouble even lifting my arm up. The first time I got acupuncture the pain decreased a lot and after a couple more visits during the following week I was able to move my arm pain free. Thanks Christine!

Shoulder pain
I was skeptical about Acupuncture at first. I didn't really understand how it worked, or if it worked at all. But I decided I would give it a try. I saw Christine for shoulder pain that had been bothering me for a few weeks. After the first treatment, I could really tell a difference. I came in for one follow up treatment and my shoulder pain had completely gone away. Since then I have seen her for different issues like headaches, acid reflux, and even hiccups! Every time I get a treatment I am amazed at how effective it is and how well I feel.
