Dear Dr. Lau,
I would like to thank you and your staff for the professional and courteous treatment I received each and every time I came to your office for an acupuncture treatment.

Prior to beginning my acupuncture treatments with you, I had become frustrated
arid began to worry that I may have to have surgery to relieve the pain that I was suffering. For the past six months I have been suffering pain radiating down my left leg from my hip to my calf After seeing my primary care physician, a chiropractor and a neurologist, it was determined that the pain was caused by a protruding herniated disc which was making contact with my sciatic nerve. I was given a prescription for Motrin by my primary care physician which I took without any relief of the pain. I then went for a few chiropractic adjustments which initially helped, but after a short time the pain returned.

Next, I was referred to a neurologist and was given steroids which gave me relief
for a few days. The neurologist then suggested I try an epidural as that possibly would give me a longer period of relief I decided against the epidural and was told that maybe I should see a neurosurgeon.

Sincerely,
Gail A. Darrow

I have been at Dr. Lau’s three times. The first time, I lost 30 lbs. I do believe acupuncture really works for losing weight, my daughter lost 37 lbs with Dr. Lau and have kept most of it off over 1½ years.

Dear Dr. Lau,

I’d like to thank you for helping me through my bout with Bell’s Palsy. Your expertise undoubtedly helped speed my recovery and perhaps even prevented permanent damage. As you had stated during my initial consultation, significant improvement wouldn’t appear until after several sessions. However, even after only one visit, I experienced improved blood flow to the affected area, which of course helped the healing process. Soon thereafter, the pain and annoying ear sensitivity that was plaguing me ceased and facial movement began to markedly improve.

In addition to the positive effect on my facial paralysis, the sessions helped me relax a great deal and gave me an overall sense of well-being. The entire experience was very pleasant, and I would, without hesitation, recommend you to anyone looking for effective treatment for a variant of ailments. Also, Patricia is very kind and friendly – she is certainly an asset to your practice.

I wish each of you health and happiness in 2003.

Sincerely,
M.C.T.

To anyone who is in pain:

I am writing this as I wait treatment for arthritis in my right knee. This condition results from an operation on that knee 38 years ago. I have had a lot of time to get used to the slight difference between knees but the first 30 years were painless.

Once I started having pain, it grew worse, and I was having trouble getting to sleep at nights. I took a lot of ibuprofen, tried various creams and ointments, and applied heat – all with unsatisfying results. Then I tried acupuncture. A series of treatments eliminated the pain and greatly increased flexibility.

Now, several years later, it began to hurt and stiffen up again. I am playing volleyball several times a week, so I am used to pain, but why suffer if you don’t have to.

I knew it was time for more treatments, so I made appointment with Dr. Lau. It was a wise choice after a very thorough and precise discussion of my medical history and specific condition. I had my first treatment, things started improving immediately the knee felt better and moved better. I could walk normally again after years of limping.

Today is my fifth treatment and I’m even thinking about taking my wife dancing. For anyone who has pain or poor flexibility, I strongly recommend acupuncture. In particular, I recommend the skill of Dr. Lau. He is a concerned and caring, and highly skilled practitioner of and ancient effective healing art.
