As of this time, my condition is so improved that I rarely cough, and when I do it is minimal. No mucus is apparent. Since about a month ago, I have been able to walk three miles without difficulty and have been able to walk over a mile up a very steep hill. I plan on resuming my hiking, where before this condition I was able to hike up to eight miles. I also plan on resuming skiing.

While I know that I do have asthma, the effects are so minimal now as to be barely noticeable. I have substantially reduced the meds I take, and have eliminated others. I expect to reduce and eliminate them further as time goes by.

I am extremely pleased with the treatment you have administered. After over a year and a half of suffering, I no longer suffer. I have resumed my physical activities and expect to increase them as I get back into shape.

I have recommended this treatment to others with a similar condition. I would not hesitate to recommend you to others similarly afflicted.

I thank you.

"We were married for three years, and my wife wanted to have a baby, but she couldn't get pregnant. So we had numerous visits to many fertility specialist and tried all different kinds of medicine. We went to a gynecologist. Then after I took my tests and everything, they first said my wife had a problem. Then they said I had the problem. I didn't believe it, because I used to be married to another lady, and she got pregnant and we had a child. I was very sure that I never had a problem.
"One of my wife's sisters suggested we see Dr. Hu. We said, okay, let's give it a try, let's give it a shot. Maybe she can help us. My wife followed all the rules, all the steps that Dr. Hu said. The herbs, the acupuncture. And she got a little disappointed, because after about six months she still did not get an answer.
"At a certain point, she was a little upset, and she said she was feeling kind of queasy, and I told her, you are pregnant! So we did the test, and when she came back from the clinic, she was so happy. She was pregnant. And we both started jumping up and down, crying. We couldn't believe it. Dr. Hu helped us. The herbs, acupuncture, everything she did exactly as she was told. The problem was my wife is irregular in her period, and that was one of the main points. We had the treatment with Dr. Hu for six or eight months."

Not only does Dr. Hu expertly position the acupuncture needles, she also had me try the ancient Chinese technique of cupping. Heated glass bottles are placed on your back in order to increase heat and combat blood stagnation. Sure, it sounds a bit strange, but it all seems to make sense to me since migraines are in essence a blood flow issue. Gwyneth Paltrow recently made the news when she showed up on the red carpet with her cupping bruises proudly displayed in a backless dress. Mine might not have seemed as glamorous as Paltrow's, but hopefully we both experienced positive results. Dr. Hu also mixed up some some nasty-tasting tea for me to take home, which I am still drinking with a forced smile three times a day. And, just for good measure, she applied four tiny tacks to each ear, which I am to squeeze as pressure points throughout the week until my next visit. Well, if nothing else, it sure gives you something to talk about at the next cocktail party.
