In August, 2013 I came to Bret under the recommendation of a good friend. My diagnosis was Plantar Fasciitis and I had just endured a year of treatment, multiple doctor visits and pain level of 7 out of 10. I was a candidate for “open release” foot surgery and learned about acupuncture treatment for Plantar Fasciitis through the internet. After reading about the possibilities of continued pain from scar tissue associated with the surgery and long recovery time, I decided to try acupuncture, and I’m SO glad I did!
Bret is extremely knowledgeable about acupuncture and nutrition, and I felt positive results after the very first treatment. After 1 year of intense heel pain after standing for more than 10 or 15 minutes, Bret was able to take my heel pain level from 7-8 to 0-1 after one month of treatments. In addition, I have also been taking recommended supplements that have improved my overall health and eased the intense heel pain.
I cannot emphasize how much acupuncture has changed my life for the positive. To live with pain 24/7 is incredibly debilitating and now I feel I can live my life again and start exercising at the gym. I was able to spend a week in London 2 weeks ago and walked about 5-6 miles around the city every day.
Amazing. Thanks Bret!! You’re the best! Oh yea, and I went back to the gym today and it felt GREAT!
