Dear Dr. Lau,
I want to express my thanks to you and your staff for your professional and wonderful care throughout my acupuncture treatments.
Working as a nurse in an inpatient hospital setting requires a lot of physical demands. For me, because of my history of scoliosis since childhood plus the daily lifting, bending, etc. at work, my lower back was extremely aggravated causing lower back pain and sciatica everyday.
As you know, I had sought out traditional medical treatment and had been following a regular exercise program without relief. I did not want to take anti-inflammatory medications which can upset the stomach.
I decided to try acupuncture as an alternative treatment upon the suggestion of my husband. After a few treatments, I noticed improvement. By the seventh treatment the sciatica was completely gone. My lower back pain has improved by 90%. The stiffness in my lower back has improved considerably.
I am very pleased with the results of treatment. I have recommended acupuncture to many of my colleagues at work who suffer from pain as a result of working as a nurse. I would not hesitate to return for further treatment if needed.
Many thanks.

Sincerely,
Marlene Denis
