I had acupuncture for sciatica from disc herniations about 20 years ago as little else was helping CPT, exercise , yoga and I refused to take OTC or RX medications to control the pain. As a health care professional, I was aware of the applications for acupuncture in China as anesthesia for heart surgery, brain surgery, birthing etc.. and was willing to try a “complementary medicine” approach to resolve my periodic but severe low back pain and sciatica. For about two-month prior to this cruise, I had been experiencing severe low back pain and sciatica.

What started as treatment for weight loss evolved into so much more. Multiple treatments helped with sciatica, weight loss and constipation. During the source of my session, Martina was able to incorporate additional treatment for overactive bladder and constipation. When I developed an upper respiratory infection she also treated that.

I feel better than I have in years. My sciatica is practically non- existent. Overactive bladder is much improved (I can sleep all night) and constipation is resolved.

I started a detox program in conjunction with the acupuncture and I am pleased with the results this far. I am looking forward to using herbs and continuing my program at home.

Thanks!

PS. As an allopathic practitioner – must admit, I was skeptical at first – now I am a believer!

I thought that my sciatica flare-up would literally ruin my trip! I had extreme pain in my left leg. I was so lucky to find acupuncture right here on the ship. In just a few days my pain had been reduced significantly! I was able to enjoy the cruise of a lifetime.

Thank you!
