For the last 20 years, I have been suffering from progressively worsening and more frequently occurring sinus infections and G.I. Reflux. I continued to take medications (prescriptions and over the counter remedies), but my health did not change. Summer of 2008, I developed pneumonia. Feeling as though I had nothing to lose, I decided to try acupuncture and was referred by a friend to Sally Abrams.
Sally completed a thorough medical history and started me on a specialized diet. I heeded her advice and with the acupuncture, began feeling better. It has now been months without a sinus infection or having to take anti-biotics (a record). For the first time in 12 years, I had 2 colds that didn’t turn into sinus infections. Instead of taking anti-biotics, I took herbs which supported my immune system and relieved my symptoms.
Since beginning my new diet, I have lost some weight and Sally told me that if I’m on the right diet, I wouldn’t have to worry so much about weight and that my body would settle into the right weight for my body and that’s what happened.
My friends were awestruck by my recovery and my commitment to my diet. Some of them have also started seeing Sally and have benefited from her expertise.
I am grateful to Sally as she has completely changed my quality of life. If you don’t have your health, you can’t work effectively, think well or do the many activities that an otherwise healthy person can. Thankfully I now have a much higher quality of life.
