I feel incredibly fortunate to have tried acupuncture after nearly six months of ongoing muscle pain from a fall. I’ve been dealing with bulging discs, spinal stenosis, and osteoarthritis in nearly every joint—hips, knees, feet, back, neck—you name it.

At the start of my treatment, I could barely walk. I had previously tried Aleve for a couple of weeks, but had to stop due to high blood pressure and edema. Acupuncture completely turned things around. My pain became manageable, and I began walking almost normally again.

I can now get up from a chair more easily, and I sleep much better. I’m incredibly grateful for the care, support, and helpful information Dr. Martina Sturm provided. She’s made a significant difference in my quality of life. I plan to continue acupuncture when I return home.
