Acupuncture Treatment for Back Pain
E Buckland
I am very pleased to announce that my problems that the NHS could not provide any treatment for appear to be almost cured, thanks to the skilful help of Qing and John, without whom I would probably be out of a job, and either in a wheelchair, or at least using a walking aid of some description.
Whilst not completely over some of the effects of the problem that has bothered me for the past 16 months, Qing and John have given me a new lease of life in respect of mobility, and almost complete relief from the excruciating pain that has for so long been at times, almost
unbearable.
I cannot thank Qing and John enough for the friendly and helpful way in which they have helped me on the way to a (hopefully) full recovery, and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending a visit to these two wonderful people, as I am sure that whatever the problem, the chances are, that a lot of benefit would be gained after even only a couple of
sessions.

I had suffered from a bad back for 9 or 10 months before I found my way here. I had tried a lot of conventional treatments, including steroid injections and physiotherapy. Combined with chiropractic treatment, the treatment I have received here means that I can now live a more or less normal life. I can now get through the day without having to lie down most of the time. I have been coming to the clinic regularly for about 5 months now and would recommend it to anybody. The care and compassion I have received is fantastic. Basically - it works.

I came to see Qing 10 years ago, for acupuncture treatment of my bad back. I had a bad injury in 1976, when I first met Qing I was on two crutches, the pain on my back , hip & my legs was so bad, I couldn't do anything include look after myself. Qing gave me acupuncture, cupping and ultra sound treatment and after a period of time, I gradually got better. I was told that I would be in a wheelchair in five years, well  I am not, I now lead a very active life, Qing has given me the best present! Now I just come to see Qing for a MOT when I need it.

I first went to the Centre for Chinese Medicine for an ongoing shoulder complaint. After 18 months of on/off pain I found tablets no longer working. I phoned and made and appointment with doctor Zhang. After one session it felt as though I never had a problem.
About six weeks later I hurt my back at work lifting something heavy. After being sent home I couldn't move and it brought tears to my eyes. I had to crawl to the telephone and phone Dr Zhang to see if she could help me. When I saw her I couldn't even sit down properly. After an hour or so I walked out with very little back pain and I was back at work within 2 days. so what does it invlove - a very skilled person with a number of small needles placed in certain areas of the body. They are then connected to a machine which causes the muscles to pulse in the affected area and then heat is also put through the needles to warm the muscles. To finish the treatment off ultrasound is used to relax the inflamed area.
I would certainly recommend it to anyone with any muscular problem. No doubt I will be seeing Dr Zhang in the future with other problems.
Try it, you never know.

When I came to Qing I could hardly walk and sitting for even a short while was extremely painful. I have been on strong painkillers and physiotherapies for the last six months and continually having time of work. I first came to see Qing after Christmas , very apprehensive but pain was so bad I said I would try anything to relieve it. Qing was so calming and reassuring on my first visit , my husband had to stay to keep me calm. I was so shocked that the needles didn't hurt. It took a few weeks to start to relieve my pain. I am now back at work and starting to enjoy life again and have start slowly to return to swimming and gentle exercises.
Qing has given me back my quality of life and my self-esteem. Qing 's personally and professionals was outstanding, her caring way and calming manner is truly amazing. Anyone on as much pain as I was I truly recommend.
Qing - Thank you for what you have given me back- My quality of life.
