Patient was able to attend his appointment and undress unaided on the second visit. His leg cramp stopped after the first week of treatment. All other symptoms subsided by the sixth visit.

Thank you for the treatment. I came into your surgery an old man could not walk because I ached so much. The acupuncture treatment you gave was fabulous, I became a new person.
