Neck Pain

"I have been going to Dr. Li for about a year. When I first went to see her I was in pretty bad shape. I had been suffering with severe muscle spasms due to degenerative disk disease and sciatic. I originally was referred to a pain specialist by my primary care doctor however, I explained to the pain specialist that I did not want to take any narcotic pain medication and that I wanted to control my pain as holistic as possible, that's when he stated that he could refer me to an acupuncturist. As soon as I received my referral in the mail, I scheduled my appointment with Dr. Li. I was a little concerned with getting needles stuck in me because I don't like needles but I was in so much pain at that point that I really didn't even care. Dr. Li took the time to do a very thorough assessment of all my issues and she even used a diagnostic machine and explained to me what was going on. She was very comforting and I really didn't even feel the needles to much. On the days I was really in a lot of pain would also use a technique called cupping which really helped. She would also recommend certain herbs to me that helped in my recovery. Here I am a year later and I can truly say that I feel amazing. She has really helped with me being able to regain my life back with out no more pain. I would really recommend Dr. Li if you want to take control of your pain issues with a holistic approach."
