I, Monique Marie Vredeveld, 84 years of age, has been suffering from a nagging pain in my left hip/butt for more than 4 years. The pain started from a spot in my lower leg approximately 10 cm above my ankle, shooting up to my hip/butt. I have tried physical therapy, a chiropractor, and massage therapy…. no relief at all. My sister, who lives in the Netherlands told me that she was seeing a Chinese therapist for her shoulder and neck pain and got very positive results. So, I search the website and found: “Oriental Art of Healing” and Dr. Henry Wu’s name. I called and got an appointment right away. After every treatment session I always felt so happy. The pain was starting decreased although not completely gone, but I have faith in Dr. Wu. After my fourth session with Dr. Wu’s acupuncture treatment, the pain in my hip/butt was gone, no the painful spot in my lower leg either for 4 days. So on July 4th I participated the “Freedom Run” in Evergreen, although I haven’t been running for 2 years, but I wanted to give it a try. I was alternating between jogging and brisk walking. No pain at all and I won the FIRST PLACE in my age group (70 and up) – a gold medal! I was so happy. It has been now one week since I did the race…. and there is still no pain. Thank you, Dr. Wu, you are THE BEST.
