Success Stories from Patients

Having a patient come in and tell you how much better he or she is feeling is such a joy that I never take for granted.

When someone tells you that their life has changed so much for the better, well, it’s just the best day ever. It’s why I do what I do. Here are just a few stories and comments patients have graciously shared:

 

 “I remember the first time I came to Leslie for acupuncture, she was so warm and welcoming. She makes you feel very comfortable with the whole idea of acupuncture and can answer any questions you may have. I have been seeing her for a few years now and plan to continue for many more. She is very enthusiastic about what she does, and I always feel like she cares about me! She has helped me with many issues, including night sweats, hormone issues, neck pain and stiffness, back problems, and the list goes on. She is a very sweet person and an important part of my wellness routine!”

 

“Leslie at Balanced Health Acupuncture is wonderful! She has a passion for her work and helping people. I have been going to her for 2 years and she has helped me with many issues. She takes a very thorough intake which helps her to get an overall picture of you and your health. She really listens to what you have to say which help her give you a customized treatment plan for your specific issues. She really cares about her clients and that is so important to me”. -Linda


 

“I have to say thank you to you because after my acupuncture treatments I was able to get back to my normal life. I always say to people that acupuncture got me my life back! Thanks again!” - Erica

 

“Acupuncture has been amazing and invaluable. Before I began acupuncture I had terrible back pain. Now my pain is gone and I am able to do so many activities I enjoy. Leslie is so personable and caring. Also, her abilities are life-changing.” -George Pacheco


 

“I can not thank you enough for all you have done for me in the past year. When I came to you last year, I had just started taking daily medication for migraines. Looking for another alternative, I’m so glad that I was referred to you for acupuncture. I very seldom get headaches now and can’t remember the last time I had a migraine. Acupuncture has helped me in other ways too. The arthritis in my knees is so much better, less achiness but more importantly no longer limping. Stress tends to make me take shallow breaths and experience shortness of breath. Acupuncture has improved this too. I have recommended you to my friends, doctors and nurses. Thank you so much!”

 

“I was looking to make positive changes for myself for the new year. After my very first visit, I noticed changes right away. I felt less pain in my neck, slept much better, and felt much more focused than before. I somehow seem to have an overall sense of control and balance in my life. My family and coworkers have noticed changes in me also in a very short period of time. I feel positive that I will be able to achieve my goals and am thankful that I found Leslie to help me do this! I am recommending Leslie to everyone I know!”


 

“I highly recommend that you go “get stuck.” I know that it was only the first session, but I can’t believe how much better my shoulder feels. I’m not ready to go chop wood and I will be back for another session but WOW!!!… At this very moment, the constant, dull ache is gone from my shoulder. I am a happy camper. Thank you for bringing acupuncture to Middleborough! -Janet Parker”

 

“I have been a Registered Dental Hygienist for 39 years. I had been dealing with a debilitating repetitive strain injury affecting my right shoulder and scapula area. The pain was so intense it was almost impossible to do my job. I went to my primary care physician who prescribed muscle relaxants and physical therapy. No relief at all. My next step was a referral to a neurologist. This was not the route I wanted to pursue. I decided to try acupuncture. Leslie is literally a life saver. After several acupuncture sessions including “cupping” I am pain free. She is one of the most caring individuals I have ever dealt with. You can immediately tell she truly cares for her patients and has the special ability to truly listen. I plan to continue with my sessions as part of my decision to take better care of myself.” - Joyce MacDermott


 

“After many years of dealing with degenerative disc disease in my spine, I all about gave up on trying to find relief from the pain and discomfort, PT, injections, meds...I've tried it all and nothing brought any consistent relief. I decided to give acupuncture a whirl since I figured I had nothing to lose and I have to say that Leslie is a lifesaver. She has helped me deal with my day to day pain, along with almost every other issue I have been plagued with over the years from allergies to a fractured elbow to general stress. Leslie takes the time to check in with you at the beginning of every visit with her and tailors every appointment to your needs. I cannot recommend Leslie and Balanced Health enough!!!” – Margaret Ciborowski

 

“Leslie is very knowledgeable, kind and genuinely interested in helping her clients build a better quality of life. I have been a client of hers since November of 2018. She has worked with me on issues ranging from anxiety & elevated blood pressure to head colds and sciatic nerve pain. My visits range in frequency depending on what is going on in my life but mostly now I go to maintain and refuel. I breathe better, sleep better and overall feel better thanks to Balanced Health Acupuncture!” – Kellie Kelleher


 

“I absolutely love Leslie, owner of Balanced Health Acupuncture Inc. I originally started acupuncture for lower back pain and right hip pain. Not only has that been relieved but Leslie has helped me by suggesting daily supplements that I can take to better myself year round. Now we focus on my day to day - headaches, menopausal systems and general overall self-love. I can honestly say that Leslie has changed my life for the better! From her calming and caring personality to the effectiveness of her treatments, Leslie is top-notch.”

 

“Leslie is great! Very attentive to your needs ! A little slice of heaven every time I am there!” -Zoe Kelliher


 

“I had problems turning my head to the left at intersections and would have to move in my seat at times to see about oncoming traffic. With my sessions of acupuncture I have much better range of motion with my neck, and it has helped me to the point that I tell people about it. My son started me with this because of the success he had with acupuncture treatments for his back.” -Bob

 

“Leslie has shown such professionalism while making me feel completely at home during my treatments. I am completely relaxed after having acupuncture and feel like a new person after each session. I have had major improvements in my health since starting with Leslie, including decrease in anxiety, increase in energy, stabilized mood, and restoration of my cycles (amazing!). My doctors are amazed at the improvements in my health this year and I truly have Leslie  to thank for many of these improvements. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone who wants to take back control of their health!”


 

“I started acupuncture pretty much as a last hope. I have multiple sclerosis and have extreme fatigue and pain (along with a long list of other symptoms). My daughter did some research, and one place kept coming up, Balanced Health Acupuncture. My daughter was extremely impressed by not only the knowledge of Leslie, but by Leslie herself. My first visit with Leslie was a very comfortable experience. Leslie makes you feel at ease and explains everything in a way that you can understand and relate to. Leslie is very well educated, not just in acupuncture, but in many other areas, nutrition being just one. I was a little unsure, but kept an open mind. After my first treatment, I felt a difference in a way that’s hard to describe. By my third treatment, I felt the best I had felt in over ten years! The atmosphere is very quiet and relaxing, and you look forward to coming for your next treatment. To anyone just thinking about trying acupuncture, whether you are looking for a different way to treat an illness, stress, smoking cessation, headaches or for general relaxation, try it. But, try it with Leslie at Balanced Health Acupuncture. Hey, it’s worth a shot and you just might find yourself finally feeling better, like I do!! “
