I got injured on the job early 2008 and haven’t been the same over since. I had gone to physical therapy and so many tests done, that you couldn’t even begin to imagine, but have not had and significant progress for the past year. This all changed within the first visit at Withee. THE VERY FIRST!

My job requires me to be very active and I, myself am a very active person so it was almost scary to me that I had lost so much mobility especially in my neck/shoulder area.

I’ve had countless MRI’s done and met with neurologists, physical therapists, chiropractors, orthopedic doctors, and no one could get to the source of my problem. I had no major fractures of bone/joint problems but I felt pain throughout most of my body constantly. I couldn’t even go to sleep without popping painkillers. I could barely turn my neck and do things that I needed and wanted to do. The only thing that was worth nothing in my tests were slight compressions of my cervical discs but no amount of physical therapy of painkillers could ease my pain. No one could figure why I had so much muscle pain when there wasn’t much structurally wrong and I didn’t even have radiating pain.

So after a frustrating year, I visited Withee after somehow ending up on their beautiful website. I was apprehensive at what I was told at first because I’d already been through so many doctors and no improvement. I had no idea that Chinese medicine consisted of so many different things! Of course, I tried the herbs and the acupuncture which helped a great deal but there were all these other forms of therapy that the doctors used to ease my pain and keep it from coming back. And their massage therapist is amazing as well.

After the first visit, I was hooked. I could turn my neck completely for the first time in one year in both directions! I had never felt like that in a long time – I had more energy and I felt like myself again. I could finally get a good night’s sleep after the treatment. And the herbs are helping me tremendously, too. I feel more vibrant with less and less pain and it really feels like my body is healing from the inside out. I am hooked!
