Acupuncture treatment works for hypothyroidism

by fletch115

I started going to Cindi for treatment after being diagnosed with hypothyroidism. My TSH levels were elevated. Leery about taking thyroid medications, I decided to give acupuncture a try. I’m so glad I did!

People ask me if acupuncture works. Yes it does! My TSH levels are now in the normal range. I feel much better and have more energy. My moods even improved.

However, you must realize that going the acupuncture route is a commitment. You have to commit to a schedule of treatments and make dietary/lifestyle changes. It was well worth it, I feel great.

Acupuncture-great for your body and mind

by geraldodukes

I want to first say that not in a million years would I have believed that acupuncture would help my problem. Cindi is knowdlegeable, professional, caring and above all wonderful. The treatment that I am getting is for my back. I have tried physical therapy and chiropractic therapy and neither worked for me like acupunture has. It is awesome! Cindi cares about her patients and knows how to make you relaxed and comfortable. Seeing Cindi has been one of the best things that I have ever done for my back and body. If you have a problem with any part of your body, acupunture may help you. What an amazing feelilng for my body, mind and soul.

• Pros: Helps with pain

Life changing treatments, caring practitioner, relaxed setting...

by lnwilliford

I began seeing Cindi 3 weeks ago after researching acupuncture treatment for allergies, eczema, chronic rhinitis and sinusitis. I have suffered with horrible nasal allergies my entire life and have taken numerous prescriptions to work on the symptoms, but nothing really treated the problem. The eczema/skin rashes had recently gotten worse and i was an itchy mess who could basically only breathe through one nostril or my mouth. AFter the consultation I began working on the dietary changes and Cindi suggested once weekly acupuncture treatment. I noticed a difference after the first treatment. Driving home I realized I could easily and clearly breathe through my nose. I was so excited. My skin rash has all but disappeared and the bouts of itching are almost non-existant. The discovery of Cindi and the Acupuncture and Wellness center is life changing for me. I have discontinued use of a nasal steroid because of the outstanding results. I am sleeping better, have more energy and do not feel tired during the day like before. The office setting is very relaxing as is the treatment itself. Cindi is knowledgeable and caring...she knows her stuff.

• Pros: Caring practitioner, effective treatments, relaxing setting, thorough health assessment
• Cons: i doh't even have one...i drive in from out of town and that is worth it

Acupuncture is Awesome

by awb84

Cindi introduced me to acupuncture and I'm so glad she did. It is one of the most wonderful things I've ever done for myself and she has helped me so much. I use to have very bad headaches all the time and sinus problems and acupuncture treatments really reduced the frequency of the headaches and when I was getting regular treatments, the headaches went away completely. I also suffered from carpal tunnel in my wrist and it was so bad that I could not even lift my car keys without being in extreme pain. Cindi gave me specific acupuncture treatments for carpal tunnel for a few months and it COMPLETELY HEALED. It is amazing. Sadly I moved away from the Cary area and no longer get acupuncture from Cindi, but I highly recommend that everyone try it. She is great and really helps out her patients. I am going to continue to get acupuncture treatments to maintain health for the rest of my life.

• Pros: cares about patients, good listener, acupuncture treatments are wonderful

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!

by KMMorris1

The Acupuncture & Wellness Center is just wonderful! Cindi genuinely cares about her patients and goes out of her way to give them the best treatment possible. She spends an hour getting to know your medical history and current conditions and then sets you up with a treatment plan that is appropriate for your condition. I know many people that have had great results with her. I also suggest seeing her just to maintain your health! To first time Acupuncture recievers, do not be afraid. It doesn't hurt and Cindi makes sure you are comfortable throughout the treatment.

Even if you don't live in Cary, it's worth the drive. If you see Cindi, you won't regret it and your body will thank you!

Very attentive care and unbelievable results.

by weychonk

I twisted my back about 4-5 months ago and resulted to severe pains on my legs and knees. Driving was hurting me, watching TV on the sofa was unbearable b/c of the weird throbbing and shooting pains on my legs. Went to the Chiropractor - they healed my back but told me that my other pains would go away. Nope, it didn't. Went to an orthopedic center, and they told me that the pains can go away with certain exercises, but it will take some time. Did exercises for a couple of months, didn't see even the slightest result.

So I checked out Acupuncture with Cindy and she spent about 45 minutes asking me about my health in general. I don't think I've actually met with any doctor who spent that long asking me about how I sleep, what I eat, warm/cold preferences, etc. I definitely learn about myself a lot more with just sitting through that first 45 minutes.

Long story short, after the 4th visit (I did once a week), my knee and leg pains COMPLETELY went away. Cindy also told me that I need to avoid a certain type of foods to make sure the pains do not come back.

In summary, I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a very experienced and attentive acupuncturist. The whole place where she practices is also very relaxing.

Great customer service! Great results!

by 8Linda

I started having frequent reactions to any strong odors such as cleaning solutions/perfumes etc. Symptoms included headache and severe coughing spells. Several physician visits, allergy testing and medication were unsuccessful. I decided to try accupuncture and went to Cindi. It was a great experience, a very professional calming environment. I have experienced tremendous success with these reactions after only a few treatments and have also experienced an overall feeling of wellness. She does a thorough exam and really spends time to understand your health problems. I will continue to see her and have referred several close friends as well.

• Pros: Great results

A very pleasant experience

by pinkbarbie

I would highly recommend Cindi Fox Kemp and her wellness center for anyone suffering from a number of issues. The intitial consultation is very extensive and thorough so that a treatment plan can be established. She takes care and time to determine the best plan of action. A variety of modalities are usually recommended which include treatment, supplements, and/or chinese herbs, etc. The treatment success is a partnered responsibility and I find myself taking her words into serious consideration. I have made a few beneficial life/diet changes that have completely aided in my health. The results were almost immediate. Based on her recommendations, I have noticed a considerable amount of benefit for my particular case. Sometimes the results are instant (post treatment) and sometimes more long term, so you should give it some time and have a realistic approach about the plan. Her practice is extremely busy. Because of this, I suggest making appts. well in advance. The pricing structure is very fair for her services. While it could get costly for extensive/numerous visits, it is well worth it.

The office is always calming and relaxing no matter the traffice flow and she always asks questions to make sure you are comfortable. The professionalism and knowledge provided by her can not be beat! I have recommended her suggestions and her services to other people and I think most anyone could benefit in some way by her treatment no matter what the case.

• Pros: Clean, calm office. Professional, thorough, and attentive practitioner.
• Cons: Hard to get later and frequent appt.s due to busy practice.

Made me a believer in accupuncture

by LeslieMumme

I tried accupuncture because of neck, back and allegery problem. I have seen a massage therapist before for my neck and back however still continued to have problems. I decided to try accupuncture after a family friend had suggested it. Cindi Fox was great at making me feel comfortable considering I had never had accupuncture before. The benefits were amazing - I felt better than I ever had. I also liked that Cindi would offer me advice on other areas such as diet, medicine and exercise. I was also surprised at how RELAXING it is! I highly recommend Cindi and her facility.

• Pros: Relaxing, Addresses Issues with back, neck and allergies, Staff very professional
• Cons: It is expensive but you get what you pay for!

Acupuncture - great experience

by Dominici

I have been going for treatments at the Acupuncture and Wellness Center for over 6 months now and my experience has been great. It's helped everything from knee pain to sinus and allergy troubles. My energy level has increased dramatically as well. I highly recommend it for specific problems or if you just want to feel better in general.
