Five Reasons to Consider Acupuncture
Re-posted with permission from ChrisMartenson.com Written by Chris Titus In recent years, Oriental medicine has been growing in popularity, forcing many in the Western medical community to sit up and take notice. Fifteen years ago, if you asked your primary care physician about acupuncture, he or she might have laughed you out of their office. Today, their responses have changed to something more accepting. While most will readily admit they don’t understand this ancient practice, there is a growing body of research that indicates... [Read more...]

“When I started acupuncture I could barely walk or sit-up without back pain. Now I’m able run, lift, sit, and all that good stuff without back pain, and I thank you big time.” Read More →

Dr. Horner: I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the acupuncture treatment plan you have developed specifically for my needs. After three years of very aggressive but unsuccessful [acupuncture] treatment in Dallas I have found that your minimalistic approach to acupuncture has been perfect for my sensitive system. I feel stronger and my allergy symptoms have shown dramatic improvement. You were right in your evaluation that in my case less was better. I have more energy and my immune system seems better than ever. For... [Read more...]

“I am a 68 year old university lecturer who was first referred to Kristen Horner for ear and facial pain by my family doctor. At my first visit, I was greatly impressed by the fact that Kristen spent about an hour discussing my medical history and existing overall health situation. In addition to the facial pain that I was experiencing, my family doctor had earlier diagnosed some fairly severe intestinal pain and discomfort as symptoms of a very low-functioning gallbladder. At the time, he had recommended that I give serious consideration... [Read more...]

My knees had become very stiff. They did not bend well, and they did not straighten out well. I moved awkwardly and slowly. After acupuncture treatments, I experienced significant improvement. It feels like my knees have been oiled. They move much better than before. The chage is marvelous. Read More →

“In 2009 I spent 6 months seeing multiple M.D.s to diagnose what appeared to be Lupus or symptoms resembling those of Fibromyalgia, but none of these doctors could diagnose what I had. One even told me, “I don’t know what you have but when it does turn into Lupus I have a great drug for you.” Each office visited simply ended with, “Come back in 6 months.” In addition to my myriad physical symptoms, the feeling of despair and having no one who could care for ALL of my issues was crushing. I would try different health... [Read more...]

“All my life I have had pain from skeletal and joint problems – with osteoporosis, scoliosis, a slipped disc, and fibromyalgia. I had great help from yoga, chiropractic, massage, and a rheumatologist, but still endured almost constant pain. Finally, I added acupuncture with Kristen Horner and was amazed at the relief I received from the painless sessions. I have been impressed with Kristen’s professional and empathic approach and by her knowledge and expertise. I have much less joint and muscle pain now and have been... [Read more...]

“I did a lot of research beforehand and I am so happy that I decided to call Kristen! I have had problems with fibromyalgia which was also causing my anxiety and depression, IBS and PMS with severe cramping. I have tried medications (all had uncomfortable side effects to say the least), chiropractors and was even contemplating surgery. Within a month I had complete relief from my PMS and my IBS. I have been going to see Kristen now for 3 ½ months, and my fibromyalgia pain is no longer bothering me. My anxiety and depression... [Read more...]

“I believe that acupuncture has helped me with my sciatica, back pain, mental stress, and ability to walk. I think it improved my problems better than medications or chiropractors have. Kristen’s herbal medicine has helped my bladder problems and chronic yeast infections.” Read More →

“Following a severe episode with my lower back and a diagnosis of the possible need for surgery, my neurosurgeon suggested that I try acupuncture with Kristen Horner. I had already had the standard treatment: 6 weeks of physical therapy as well as a shot in my lower back. These helped, but I was far from being on the road to recovery! I decided to try acupuncture in hopes of avoiding surgery. It worked! At my first visit, Kristen explained the purpose of acupuncture and the methods used. I found the procedure to not...

“In the spring of 2006 I had severe back problems, this had been going on for many years. I had been through four spine surgeries, physical therapy, chiropractors, neurologists, and neurosurgeons but with little relief. I was referred to Kristen by a friend and fortunately she started treating me with acupuncture. It has been a difficult problem but I have had more relief from acupuncture than anything I’ve tried. Kristen has been so supportive through many emotional problems as well; she is very knowledgeable about the... [Read more...]

“For the past eight years I have struggled with significant hormone imbalances that manifested themselves most visibly as facial acne. I tried visiting dermatologists, nutritionists, and our family doctor, and threw myself into various medicinal regimens. Prescription medicines, microdermabrasion, supplements, diets, special skin care products – none of these things produced lasting results. I began acupuncture treatments last spring and within three months I saw dramatic improvement in my skin. I stopped all of my other regimens... [Read more...]
