Approx. 20 years ago I suffered a lower back injury in a sporting (volleyball) accident. Over the years the pain from the injured area became more constant and profound. Exercise helped as did medication but the need for medication became more and more often. Conventional medicine just gave more powerful medications. I felt this to be undesirable so I tried chiropractic treatments. These were moderately successful but any relief was of very short duration.

Several months ago I had the opportunity to try Acupuncture with Challen Yee. I noticed a remarkable decrease in the chronic pain only a few hours after the first treatment and stiffness free. I no longer use medication and am extremely happy with the entire process. If things continue as I foresee, the gap between treatments should lengthen while maintaining a vastly improved quality of life.

I am an Engineer by profession and not prone to unconventional thinking but I must say that Acupuncture works exceptionally well for me and I would happily recommend Challen Yee to anyone seeking pain relief and escape from the problems associated with conventional drug treatment for pain.
