I have suffered from Sciatica off and on for sometime. I had been hesitant to try acupuncture. My wife who is from Singapore (I am from the US.) researched practitioners in both Atlanta and Singapore. Since she is an Asian, we did not have the same hurdle to clear as a person born and raised here. I still was not sure that acupuncture was for me. That changed though.I was limping with a lot of pain and I was living on ibuprofen when I went to see Dr. He. After my first visit I wondered why I waited. This is science, not some voodoo art. The staff in his practice consists of the nicest people.
I went in. Dr. He suggested a program of treatments. We kept track of my progress looking at a few measurables [I was interested mainly in how the pain was reducing].
After a few visits, I stopped using ibuprofen. My pain reduction progressed with each visit. Instead of having a stabbing pain in my hip, I felt a tightness in my hip – not pain. The visits were worthwhile. I am basically through with my own treatments but I want to go back a couple more times to treat some other things.
I like the people and I like the results.
