During my first acupuncture session, the doctor who treated me was very good about talking me through what was happening every step of the way.

That first experience with acupuncture has morphed into a way of life for me and a journey into understanding and greatly benefiting from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and energetic medicine.

One year after decompressive laminectomy surgery to fix the daily, relentless back pain. After 4 massages, I continue to be amazed that I am back to a life that is totally free of pain for days and now weeks!

After I had my first baby I had gained so much weight that I also suffered from depression.  I joined the food, exercise and health coaching program at HBC and after six months I was fifty-five pounds lighter!  At conferences a year later, people who knew me well didn't recognize me until they heard me speak.

I decided to add acupuncture to my treatment, this was exactly what my body needed. I very seldom take a pain pill or my muscle relaxer, my sleep has improved, the pain has decreased, the headaches have decreased, and my sinus problems have improved.

I tell everyone how the staff at Heavenly Bodies coordinates the best treatment plan each week for my body and depending on what pain I am experiencing.

After a couple of acupuncture sessions, I began to see that the pain was going away, and eventually, after about four sessions, was completely gone.

I now see Dr. Ana, Tammy and Tiffany to maintain my healthy living. They are as supportive and helpful to all of my life goals I've had over the last two years as they were for my first problem.
