Testimonials

I have been seeing Arlene Meyers for a year now at many recommendations from friends and acquaintances her name would constantly come up. I was having hip pain, hamstring and quad pain along with lower back pain. I have been to my primary care doctor "Oh is Advil enough? no I do not think so! I have been to an orthopedic doctor I have had MRI done numerous times and have seen an arthritic doctor to rule out fibromyalgia. I have also at my last stop landed at the sandwich rehabilitation center of cape cod. I received another cortisone shot that did not work this time, and was told not to waste my money as there is nothing they can do!!! No one could find anything yet I was in pain nearly everyday struggling. I am also a fitness instructor and now was having difficulty with my spin (cycle) classes. It was becoming very depressing and debilitating as well. At the final phase I was having trouble getting out of the car and walking with a limp!! I also was having trouble sleeping on my left side because of hip discomfort so I was constantly tossing and turning. Many of the people I would talk with about this would say Have you tried Acupuncture? I would say no...I don't know if that would help at this point. I have had cortisone shots many over the course of four or five years..I have had chiropractic care physical therapy for a year nothing was helping really. I did not spin (cycle classes) for a year which was very depressing as I am an active person!! when the limping started that was it!! So I tried acupuncture with Arlene.....It was Amazing!! So much relief so Fast!!! I could not get over this!! I am in the health field why did I make this my last stop!!! now believe it or not acupuncture can actually become quite relaxing..that's right needles in your body relaxing...because acupuncture does not hurt!! If you should feel any discomfort Arlene is quick to rearrange the acupuncture points so you are in a relaxed state. My quality of life has improved immensely. My insurance does not cover this expense....but it is so worth it to feel like I am myself again doing what I love LIVING!!! My family is happy for me as well as myself!!Do not hesitate to receive acupuncture with Arlene Meyers she is your lifesaver....Let the pain release let your quality of life return!!!

For over 30 years I had lived with the sometimes debilitating symptoms of multiple sclerosis. Symptoms included extreme fatigue, loss of balance, slight paralysis and limited vision, with adverse reaction to bright lights, causing nausea and ultimately projecting vomiting. I was loosing the use of my eyes! No more reading! The various drug treatments were not an option due to my adverse reaction to drugs. The recurring symptoms were managed, with limited success, through rest and a controlled environment. A regular regimen of acupuncture sessions has caused significant reductions in the frequency and severity of symptoms. I now can read! There have also been marked improvement in my overall condition, personal mobility and bodily functions. Weekly visits have changed the quality of my life.

I had been treated for mid-life onset allergies for 4 years when I met Arlene. Although some treatments using Western medicine provided a modicum of relief, I was still experiencing many days where I could not fully function because of flu-like symptoms and sinus pressure. At the time I met Arlene, I was taking 6 different types of daily medicines in addition to weekly allergy shots and, ultimately, oral steroids….and I still felt sick most of the time. Arlene’s approach was foreign to me and we embarked on 2 years of acupuncture and NAET treatments. While with Arlene, I learned a lot about Eastern approaches to whole body health. Today, I am symptom-free most of the time. I maintain my allergy shots but do not regularly take any Western medicines. I continue acupuncture with Arlene and occasionally use Chinese herbs when I feel symptomatic. More importantly, I am learning how to better balance my life and experimenting with self-healing strategies such as meditation. I am grateful for the quality of life I enjoy today and am so glad for the day I met Arlene.

For over eleven years Arlene has helped me with numerous health issues-from Sinusitis to allergies to everything a woman experiences during her lifetime. She's always supportive and always has 100% of her focus on her patient. Simply put, she's the best!

My basic problem is Spinal Stenosis. Arlene's ability to continually mollify the symptoms has greatly increased my quality of life and my golf game.

We have had acupuncture treatments for the last year and a half and find them healthful and good for treating the muscle aches and pains. Acupuncture helps the body heal itself and opens up the possibility of helping you learn to relax. We have the utmost confidence in Arlene's treatments. They have improved our quality of life.

I became a patient of Arlene's as a last resort. I had been suffering from dizziness for two-and-a-half years and had been to every doctor, hospital, and therapist I could think of. I was reduced to using a cane wherever I went. A friend recommended Arlene, but I was wary, since acupuncture was such a new concept to me. I needn't have worried. I put myself in Arlene's very capable hands. Soon after starting my treatments I went shopping and was in the middle of the store when I realized I no longer needed my cane. My dizziness was gone! On my next visit to Arlene, I literally danced into her treatment room. I'm so happy. My life has been returned to me and I'm a contributing member of society again. I still do not truly understand acupuncture, but I will be a true believer for the rest of my life!

I moved to the Cape eight years ago and have been a devoted patient of Arlene's ever since. Once, I had injured my back and Arlene fixed the problem in only one visit. She has also helped a painful knee injury. She's great with allergy and immune system problems, and I highly recommend the acutonics (sound therapy). I am always more productive on days I have acupuncture. It's always worth the time and expense!

It was my lucky day when I discovered acupuncture and Arlene Myers. I experienced the allergy elimination treatment and my asthma lessened to such a degree that I am now free of dependence on steroid medication (prednisone) with its dangerous side effects. My gratitude knows no bounds! Thank you!

I can't imagine how I'd feel without acupuncture and acutonics! I've been getting treated regularly for a number of years. Arlene and her skills as a practitioner have definitely enhanced the quality of my life. I no longer suffer from chronic sinus infections that used to require antibiotics and would sap my energy.

In 2004 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I went through five weeks of radiation. My immune system was affected and I lost a lot of my strength. When the treatments were over, I found myself getting dizzy all the time. It was difficult to get around-even grocery shopping was exhausting. My primary care physician and a specialist couldn't figure it out. Then a friend suggested acupuncture. I started treatments and within a few months had regained my strength and my immune system was stronger. Between the acupuncture and the Chinese herbs, I also have the dizziness under control. I feel as if I have my life back! I highly recommend acupuncture, and everyone in Arlene's office are caring and wonderful people.
