A new approach to healing

by akarden

I was a fertility patient for 7 years and over a year ago sought acupuncture as a last resort to addressing this problem. It was theorized that my fertility problems were caused by a thyroid disorder. I also suffered from asthma and allergies. Although my thyroid levels were considered normal I still experienced significant temperature fluctuations, anxiety, and irregular cycles. I went in for fertility and after two weeks unexpectedly my temperature fluctuations completely ceased. after three months I my allergy symptoms significantly reduced to where I could begin reducing the allergy medications, and my anxiety was gone. I also no longer needed to use my asthma medication. Best of all, I became pregnant naturally. I am now five months pregnant.

The costs for acupuncture are significant but are tax deductable under health services not covered by insurance (itemize). Also, if available to you, one may utlize a Flex Spending Account through your insurance and pay for the treatment with pre-tax dollars.

Acupuncture defenitly required a commitment to a lifestyle change...for example, I gave up dairy (if you knew me - ice cream was a daily ritual).

I visited five different acupuncturist before picking Sonia and have been very pleased with her professionalism and commitment to me. I would highly recommend acupuncture and especially recommend Inner Spring Wellness. What started out as "let's do this for three months and see" turned into a something I have incorporated into my life and will not do without.

• Pros: Numerous health improvements

Want to feel like yourself again, or better?

by annieO1

I have complete faith and confidence in Sonia & Kevin's abilities to heal and listen.

I have suffered from several life long battles, such as allergies, sinus problems, digestive issues & depression, just to name a few. Sonia uses acupunture and herbs to treat me weekly and is completely genuine, sympathetic & caring during her trreatments. I feel like I am a new & improved person after seeing her.

And Kevin's unique approach to massage therapy has made a significant & powerful difference in my life. He has helped me understand so much more of myself than I ever could have on my own.

I reccomend both of them 100% , with all my heart. If you need guidance, answers or just want to feel better, please call Inner Spring Wellness, it is worth it, believe me.

• Pros: easy to find, free parking in lot, soothing environment
• Cons: none at all

I was a skeptic . . .

by Julie630

I have to admit, I was a skeptic but decided to be open minded enough that I would try this thing called acupuncture as a last resort to get some relief from my stress - physically and mentally. Sonia certainly made a difference! I had no idea how much better I could feel! Now even my friends say I am different when I miss a week!

The best part is that Sonia is accepting and understanding to my personality quirks and to my personal life and we work together to improve my health.

I had researched acupuncture providers when I decided to try this and Sonia's name had risen to the top. Testimony to her work I drive in from the West Suburbs to get my treatments.

If you are the least bit skeptic or just wanting to see how different you can feel, through alternate medicine, I recommend Inner Spring Wellness. You are in great hands!

• Pros: Easy to find. Easy parking. Good variety of hours.

You are in good hands

by Jean1M

It's pretty simple:There are two things I want when going to a therapist.

To feel I put my health in the hands of people who care and I want results. Sonia and Kevin will exceed your expectations.

I am looking forward to my weekly appointment, I highly recommend Inner spring wellness, they will guide you to reconnect with your body and the awareness you need to heal.

I am always encouraging my friends to go to them when they need help.

Jean.

Fabulous Accupuncture

by Ann89

Sonia combines her knowledge and experience with an empathic approach that helps you heal. I had tried other accupuncturists and stayed with Sonia for over a year, as she helped me on the journey from 4 years of unexplained fertility to a healty pregnancy. I doubt that I would have been able to stay with the program had it not been for Sonia's calm reassurance and confidence. I have no doubt that the combination of accupunture, herbs, and support from Sonia resulted in the gift I'm carrying now.

• Pros: empathic approach, office ambience, ease of parking, accessible location
• Cons: none
