Since I opened my acupuncture clinic in Baytown in 1984, I have treated more than 30,000 patients. Most of the patients in the Shu clinic are treated with Western medicine and cannot be cured. The Chinese call it "old, big, and difficult." Let me give a few examples. A 40-year-old male patient called and said: "I have had neck pain and shoulder pain for a month..." I treated him three times. More than a month later, his wife called and said: "My husband has had neck pain and shoulder pain for 16 years. I go to the orthopedic doctor twice a week. There are 6 doctors recommending him to have surgery. My husband is afraid of surgery. Because he heard that some people get worse after the operation. Some people suggested that he go to acupuncture treatment..."
He didn’t accept treatment, so I lied to say that it was only one month. Later, he introduced many relatives. My friend came to the clinic for treatment. There is a 50-year-old female with left flank pain for more than a year. She has no abnormal appearance. She has been examined by various instruments of Western medicine and cannot find out the reason. It has cost more than 10,000 US dollars. She was treated 10 times, and it was very painless. She was very happy.
There was a 45-year-old female patient who said: "I told my friend that I was going to the acupuncture clinic to treat low back pain. My friend said, you are crazy, you have low back pain. Let’s go for acupuncture, isn’t it a pain?!......" I treated her 3 times without pain in the lower back. There is also a 41-year-old woman patient with pain in her right arm and neck. The fifth time she came to the treatment, she said, there was no change. I was very anxious. Because, in the United States, the general patient is treated once or twice, and if there is no improvement, it will not come.
I understand that Americans are very busy and I was very anxious. When she came to the clinic for the sixth time, she told me she felt better. I was very happy. After seven treatments, she was feeling well. In China, ten treatments are counted as one course, and one treatment fee is charged once. My wife had a pain in her arm ten years ago after donating blood in China. She married and came to the United States and she didn’t tell me that she had arm pain. Because she was afraid of needles. She saw that I cured many patients, so she told me she wanted acupuncture. I treated her twice and it was painless.
