READY TO COMMIT: REPAIRED MY HEALTH, CHANGED MY LIFE

12/15/2022

 
Being the quintessential type A, competitive, work hard/play hard kind of person, I began slowly running my health into the ground during my work in the medical/social services field. 
I guzzled caffeine, ran in circles, thrived off intensity, and tossed back antibiotics any time I became ill.  While I always endured respiratory infections having followed the same patterns in college, when I started developing inexplicable and untreatable eczema, I grew desperate for help. 
My poor self-care and health habits where literally crawling up to the surface screaming out for change.  Numerous brilliant doctors worked closely with me, but nothing changed.  No cause could be found and it was just steroids on top of steroids on top of steroids…
I needed help! 
A co-worker RN whom is a veteran referred me to Anjelika and my life has never been the same.
When I started treatment with Anjelika, she assured me after a thorough assessment she could help and asked for a commitment. 
Three times a week for many months I carved out 3-hour round-trip sessions, took the herbs, drank the teas, and practiced the lifestyle and diet changes while soaking in all the wisdom she had to share.  Aside from her skilled practice of Chinese Medicine, she became a life coach to me. 
Anjelika poignantly helped me recognize my maladaptive patterns, empowering and enabling me to correct them in a way that served my body, mind, and really my soul. 
It was HARD work and worth every single effort because what I got back was my best self, saturated with endless life-altering insights and my initial goal of restoring my health. 
I have never felt better.
Having fundamentally restored my basic immunity and gut health, I enjoy trusting Anjelika with all of my wellbeing needs because she continually tackles any fun challenges I throw her way. 
She has alleviated extensive musculoskeletal issues from a lifetime of sports injuries, restored my menstrual cycle to health, and corrected challenging reproductive imbalances.
She has taught me how to prioritize self-care, a healthy diet, and good living in a sustainable way. 
I am seldom sick because on the rarity illness attempts to strike, I know what to do so it doesn’t progress, it’s quite magical. 
I feel rested, energized, light on my feet and sound in my mind. 
Most recently, she helped gift me my darling son after turning to acupuncture once again for fertility challenges. 
When I say she has bettered every single aspect of my life with her treatment and herself, I mean it at my core.
Acupuncture came to me at the perfect time in my life where I was truly ready to dedicate to change and evolve because the way I was living was not serving me. 
Naturally, the benefits I’ve experienced make me want to shout it from the rooftops! 
I am quick to recommend it to friends, family, even strangers, and if you’re reading this testimonial, I hope this speaks to you in some way. 
To pay it forward is the biggest thank you I could give for what acupuncture and Anjelika have done for me. 
My closing advice is to give it solid commitment and trust this gifted healer- you will not regret it.

Chronic Cough

4/24/2016

 
When I moved to Hawaii in April 2015, the VOG from the Big Island caused me to have a dry cough that kept me up at night as well as sounded like I was coughing up a lung.  For months I suffered from coughing fits and took many OTC medications to treat the symptoms.  In October 2015, I finally sought out acupuncture from Anjelika since I knew that she does not just treat the symptoms, but tries to eradicate the core issue of the symptoms.  She also prescribed an herbal formula along with the acupuncture and within a few weeks, the cough was gone and has not returned.

I write to you in regards to the treatment and care my son and I received at the Community Acupuncture & Herbal Clinic.  
I first went to the clinic with severe respiratory distress.  I would have acute attacks that did not respond to the inhalers and asthma protocols given to me previously by medical practitioners.  My son was also experiencing respiratory challenges and would suffer from wheezing attacks, chronic bloody noses, and regular colds (monthly) and lung ailments.  We were told by an M.D. that “he does not have asthma as a wheeze cannot be induced. And, it is normal to sneeze repeatedly and have lots of colds during childhood.”  When I asked about his chronic bloody noses I was told that “bloody noses can also be a regular part of childhood.”  
Since I was still having severe difficulty breathing, I was not satisfied with the results of this intervention and thus sought care from the Community clinic after reading that Acupuncture and herbal remedies can be very beneficial for respiratory problems.   
My son, 7 years old at the time, would have severe wheeze attacks that were extremely scary.  We saw immediate results after a treatment – usually before he would even leave the clinic the symptoms would be gone and he would be breathing completely normally again.  The combination of treatments coupled with the herbal remedies strengthened his entire body.  He stopped getting colds and his immune system is stronger overall. I am very happy to say he no longer has wheeze attacks and is no longer debilitated every month with a respiratory cold.  Additionally, he has also literally grown a lot more since his body is no longer weakened!
The acupuncture treatments I received and the herbs I used helped me get my condition under control.  I was very weak, not sleeping (because I couldn’t breathe), low weight and fatigued.  I feel Sasha and Anjelika saved my life and kept me out of the hospital and able to function.  I no longer had to miss work and have my life stop because I was sick.   

With Regards,

Aloha!
It is with pleasure that I submit my personal testimony as proof of the amazing results received directly from the treatment of acupuncture and herbal medicine. 
I am a female, 44 years of age, and approximately 20 years ago was privileged to have acupuncture treatment given to me from friends who were from China and had learned the art of acupuncture.  I was suffering from pneumonia at the time and my condition was steadily deteriorating.  After just one treatment, the fever broke and I was able to regain my strength and recover fully.  This was in Cape Town, South Africa. 
Years passed and with time, I started to feel less energized and was experiencing ongoing symptoms of sore throat after consuming sugar, severe migraine headaches which would occur at least once a month. The headaches were very severe, not being able to move, having to close the curtains and try to fall asleep to overcome the progressive headache which was accompanied by nausea and vomiting.  Other symptoms included aching knees, not being able to bend down as easily as before and feeling “old” in my movement.  I have had genital herpes for years… with recurring outbreaks almost monthly close to my menstrual period.  Another health disorder that appeared was itching in the anal area; this was very severe and very disturbing to my overall peace of mind. 
I tried many different health alternatives to achieve optimum health of which all had left me feeling exasperated and worried. 
Meeting the practitioners at the Community Clinic was a blessing and a heaven-send. They immediately were able to offer sound advice which I could feel started working immediately in terms of diet guidelines, herbal remedies and acupuncture treatment. I can honestly say that all the symptoms discussed above have completely disappeared and I am experiencing good health and well-being today!  I would strongly encourage anyone who has not tried acupuncture or seen Anjelika for her herbal formulations to offer themselves this life-saving opportunity!
