Testimonial: Now my age 57, I came to the Energy Body Acupuncture Clinic for Anti-aging Acupuncture because I wanted to do something more for my health and well-being than just my regular gym workouts and annual physical. Dr. Yang first suggested that we focus on reducing my anxiety and stress level; following his proposal of dietary changes and supplements, I felt much calmer. I also started a series of Anti-aging acupuncture treatments that immediately alleviate allergy sinus problem, and gave me more energy. And I discovered an unexpected “bonus” when friends began telling me my skin was glowing and I looked younger. I’m so pleased with how the acupuncture treatments with Dr. Yang has improved my facial skin tone that I’ve discontinued my usual quarterly visits to the dermatologist for Botox and fillers. It has been a wonderful, mind-opening experience and an important step towards Anti-aging. --------David R. I have been seeing Dr Yang, for five weeks now, for dry eye, light sensitivity, lower back pain and ED. What I can say is, all of my medical issues are getting much better with Acupuncture treatments two times a week. I’m so happy with the results, I wanted to write a quick blog of more than appreciation. To the great work Dr. Yang is doing. -------- Jackie K. I have been suffering from hypertension for more than 15 years. I have taken different kinds of medicine, my blood pressure is up and down and never gets controlled. I also suffer a lot of side effects from the medication, such as impotence, fatigue, insomnia, etc. Since I started seeing Dr. Yang, my blood pressure is very good, my impotence is gone, and I have much more energy. Dr. Yang really helps me a lot. ---------Tom R. |
