My gastroenterologist recommended that I try acupuncture to deal with acid reflux symptoms that I had been experiencing since February of 2018. I began going to sessions with Dr. Wu in November 2018. I started by going twice a week and found the sessions to be tremendously helpful. Within a couple of weeks I no longer felt discomfort and I was able to get off my medication (Omeprazole and Zantac). At the same time, my husband and I began trying to conceive. I had been experiencing very heavy periods (lasting 7 days) that were accompanied by painful cramps, back aches, and a tingling feeling down my legs. I saw my gynecologist in September after feeling pain in my pelvic area. She found 2 ovarian cysts. I returned in December (after weekly sessions with Dr. Wu) for a follow up ultrasound, and my doctor found that the cysts had dissolved. My cycles were also lighter and I did not have cramping. I got pregnant in January. We had only been trying for about 4 months, so I can completely attribute it to acupuncture, but given how much my cycle improved, I can’t help but feel that it helped!
Overall, I found acupuncture with Dr. Wu to be very calming and relaxing; I often fell asleep during sessions!
