Case:
Lori, 23 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Chronic migraines
“Migraines run in my family so I wasn't too surprised that I developed them, but was surprised at how quickly they came into my life. About six months ago, I started getting migraines 4-5 times each week, ranging from a dull ache every morning to more severe headaches that ever caused nausea and vomiting. Some even left me unable to function, and I was stuck in bed. Over-the-counter headache medicines rarely worked.
“When I went to see a neurologist (and after doing a series of tests), he put me on medicine to prevent these headaches. I took the medicine every day for three months. Side effects to the medication were that I lost 10 lbs., and developed numbness, in my feet and occasionally throughout my whole body. The migraines did not decrease with this drug. At this point in time the headaches were destroying my life as I was having them every morning and most every afternoon.
“After stopping the medication, I decided to try acupuncture. I started treatment about 2 months ago. For the first two week, I still had frequent headaches (and was still coming off the medication). After a few more weeks of treatment, I noticed that most mornings, I was actually waking up without headache free. Soon after, I was getting through entire weeks with no headaches, which was pretty incredible to me!
“I was truly amazed at how well acupuncture worked for me. I was off the medications and taking just receiving acupuncture and taking some recommended supplements. At first I didn't know much about acupuncture and didn't really think it would work, but I was desperate to try anything. My life has drastically improved since coming to see Andy. I am able to function at work, throughout the day. This was not possible just a few weeks ago. If I ever get a headache now, it is much duller and doesn't last very long. I am so thankful for Andy's help, and his ongoing concern for my well being.”

Case:
Louise, 57 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Acute neck, arm
and hand pain from an auto accident
“I
had experienced pain associated with inflamed nerves,
as a result of a car accident. This caused me excruciating
& continuous pain for six consecutive days. I was
then referred to Andy Rosenfarb, and during the first acupuncture
treatment the pain had miraculously subsided. I was pain-free
for eight hours after that treatment followed only by
brief, intermittent pain. With each acupuncture treatment
I am experiencing a progressive recovery during my healing
process. Currently (9 weeks later), I can look forward
to a future that is pain free! The compassion, patience,
and pleasant mannerism of Andy Rosenfarb greatly contributed
to my recovery. Thank you, acupuncture is
a conductive path to recovery.”

Case:
Jackie, 57 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Asthma, allergies/sinus
congestion & stress
"When I first came to see Andy Rosenfarb I was experiencing
severe allergies, asthma, and tenseness. Since I have been
coming regularly for treatment over the last few months I
have much sinus congestion, less frequent asthmatic attacks.
All of my symptoms have improved, and I am definitely less
tense!" |
Case:
Barbara, 65 year-old female

knees
"When
I first came to Andy Rosenfarb's office, I had severe stiffness
(in both knees) at night. It was so painful that it woke

constant pain. Since receiving treatment, I have noticed
more flexibility and much less pain, I am sleeping much
better too!" |

Case:
Margo, 62 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Parathyroid dysfunction,
arthritis, blurry vision, tinnitis (right-side ear ringing)
"
Andy is extremely knowledgeable in his field. He treats
me with acupuncture and herbal medicine when needed. As
a result I do not take any medications for arthritis or
any other ailments that were bothering me. My vision has
greatly improved to the point that when I went to see my
eye doctor, he had to decrease my eyeglass prescription
in addition, the ringing in my right ear has greatly subsided
and is steadily improving. My blood pressure is now under
control and my parathyroid function is stable. I am a new
person!" |
Case:
Susan, 28 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Low energy, stress,
weight gain
“When I first met with Andy Rosenfarb I had a host of
issues, many which seemed to be the result of a low thyroid
function. Western medicine had nothing to offer me since my
blood work results were ‘normal’, and I was supposedly
in great health…but I was still tired and stressed out.
I started taking some Chinese herbs that Andy Rosenfarb and
received four acupuncture treatments over the next few weeks.
Each week I noticed significant improvement in my mood, energy,
and appetite (lowered). At this point I am still taking the
herbs for maintenance, and I feel great! Thanks you so much.” |
| Case:
Billy, 16 year-old male
Chief Compliant: Chronic sinus infections
w/ pending surgery, allergies, back pain
“I
began skeptical and unsure of what to expect. Treatment
is relaxing and pain-free, and resulted in the aborting
of pending sinus surgery. I have not had an infection since
I started, which is an accomplishment in and of itself (considering
I had two sinus infections each month). I have more energy
and am better able to function day to day as a result of
acupuncture treatment. Thanks Doc!”

Case:
Elizabeth, 58 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Chronic neck & shoulder
pain, headaches, unable to lift arms
“Acupuncture has helped me to function free from the
severe pain I experienced in the past. Andy Rosenfarb has freed
me from the many drugs I took (to relieve the pain) that did
not do anything to help me. All the drugs did is caused me
to walk around in a daze. I am not more pain or symptoms,
and I come in regularly to stay that way.” |
Case:
Eileen, 55 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Crohn’s Disease,
sinus sensitivity, back & neck pain caused by a car accident
“Since coming to see Andy Rosenfarb I have improved.
I can stand upright, which I was unable to do in the past.
Acupuncture has been beneficial for me in a variety of ways.
It has helped control flare ups of my sinuses, relieved pain
associated with my back injury, and reduced the intensity
of symptoms related to Crohn’s disease.” |
Case:
Uma, 60 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Arthritis, psoriasis,
macular degeneration, dry eyes
“I first came to see Andy Rosenfarb at the urging of
close friends. I was depressed and in a lot of pain…at
my low! Steadily the swelling in my joints reduced, and it
was very dramatic for me. The pain has reduced as well. There
is still some pain and as I continue with treatment, I am
looking forward to it resolving. My vision and eye dryness
are improving as well. Overall I am very pleased with the
results so far and recommend it highly. I wish I knew about
Andy Rosenfarb years ago before my condition got as bad as
it did. Thank you for taking care of me. Thank you so very
much. Love, Uma ” |

Case: Edward, 62 year-old-male
Chief Compliant: Macular Degeneration (AMD)
“I came with hope to see Andy Rosenfarb, but expected nothing. After two weeks of treatment with acupuncture, herbs, and micro current stimulation my eyes have improved remarkably. I was particularly pleased to read the railway timetable without putting on my spectacles.”
“It has been about since weeks since my treatment. My eyes seem to have continued to improve. I noticed, for the first time, that I can read some tiny print on my watch which greatly helps me adjust it when I cross time zones.”

Case: Alice, 80 year-old female

Case: Barbara, 64 year-old-female
Chief Compliant: Extreme pain in the buttocks/ hips down leg, to ankle (sciatica)
“I was referred to AHA by my chiropractor. I came to this office with very extreme pain in my hip and legs. It was so unbearable that I could not even sleep at night. Nothing I tried gave me any relief. After receiving 25 acupuncture treatments I am feeling as though I am maintaining my freedom from pain. I find my treatment time very relaxing. I'm feeling great!”
|
Case: Joan, 42 year-old-female
Chief Compliant: Migraines, Fatigue

I'm now after a few months of treatment I am seeing a gradual change for the better in my energy levels where I am able to do more on weekends. I only get very slight headaches when my period comes, that don't last. This is a major improvement from the headaches I used to get.”

Case: Jeanette, 77 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Crohn's Disease,
poor circulation
“I
am 77 years old and have had Crohn's disease since 1987.
In April of 1998 I had emergency surgery were half of
my Large Intestine was removed. While I was in the hospital
I had developed severe “wet” Gangrene on my
left foot and toes. Two months later I saw a vascular
surgeon who felt it necessary to amputate my leg, up to
the knee! Feeling hopeless, my daughter suggested we try
acupuncture as my last hope to save my leg. Andy Andy Rosenfarb
was highly recommended. In July, I started intensive acupuncture
2-3 times each week, along with taking a formula of raw
herbs that I had to make into tea. After around twelve
treatments, the Gangrene had dried up, and formed dry
scabs. A small portion of the skin my toe had fallen off,
but I still had my leg! My surgeon was amazed and delighted
at the results I got from working with Andy Rosenfarb.
I was soon walking and driving again. I still continue
to see Andy once per week to keep the circulation flowing
in my legs.”

Case:
Linda, 55 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Severe sinus headaches,
depression
"I
have found acupuncture to be the most beneficial for my
sinus headaches and allergies. Acupuncture is very relaxing
and the office environment is highly conducive to feeling
great, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I
no longer rely on any medications for the sinus headaches;
I rarely get them anymore. Andy Rosenfarb has also been using
NAET Allergy Elimination therapy to eliminate my allergies.
I feel so much better! Thank you Andy!"

Case:
Carol, 47 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Pain in left arm, depression,
hypothyroidism and immune system weak, poor digestion
“Andy has changed my life. Last fall I was suffering
from depression, and the possibility of medication was discussed.
Thanks to Andy’s treatments I have found dramatic
improvement without having to resort to pharmaceuticals! I
also have increased energy, better digestion, a ber immune
system, and great improvement with Hyperthyroidism. Emotionally,
I am feeling very well. Thank you Andy!” |
Case:
Barbara, 44 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Chronic sinusitis, min.
of 6 sinus infections each year, headache, low energy
“I’ve been receiving acupuncture treatment from
Andy Rosenfarb for eight months. During this time I’ve
had one minor sinus infection (6 months ago, when I first
started treatment). I only experience occasional low-grade
headaches, which resolve quickly on their own. The combination
of acupuncture and herbs seem to be working magic for me.
Before I started acupuncture, my ENT doctor felt I had run
out of options and recommended a second sinus surgery. I refused
this recommendation, as the first surgery did not seem to
improve my health or condition at all. I am happy to say that
I won’t need the surgery because my condition has greatly
improved with acupuncture and Chinese herbs. Although I don’t
fully grasp how acupuncture works, I am now a b supporter
and believer in this form of health care. I am so glad I took
the chance! Thank you Andy Rosenfarb!” |
Case:
Marion, 52 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Hot flashes, irritability,
insomnia
“When I first considered acupuncture I was at my wits
end because I couldn’t sleep more than 4-5 hours a
night, due to hot flashes and night sweats. After some regular
acupuncture treatment, and taking some herbs, I was totally
cured! At first the hot flashes diminished in intensity,
and then they stopped altogether. I immediately began feeling
more relaxed and slept longer and longer each night. It
was truly beyond my expectations to have the flashes cease
altogether. I am totally thrilled to be feeling so wonderful.
I wish I knew about this for the several years spent in
peri-menopause. I highly recommend Andy Rosenfarb to women
entering into this challenging transitional phase of life.”

Case:
Patricia, 51 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Chronic neck & shoulder
pain resulting from car accidents
“I have relief with acupuncture treatments. Other conditions
that Andy Rosenfarb has significantly helped me with were a
chronic vaginitis condition, headaches, insomnia and sinusitis.
I didn't even know he could help me with these problems and
they all resolved with his treatment. I would highly recommend
him to anyone!” |
Case:
Louise, 47 year-old female
Chief Compliant: Hyperthyroid condition
“When I first came to see Andy Rosenfarb, my skin was
dry, my hair was thinning and brittle, and I was HIGHLY stressed.
My hair is filling in and I feel healthier. I am less stressed
and my thyroid function is normalizing.” |
Case: Male
Chief Complaint: Rotator Cuff Injury, Toxic Liver
“I had rotator cuff injury on the left side which had been hurting for 8 months. I went to chiropractors, physical therapists, and massage therapists. No one could help me. I completed 10 days of treatment for my shoulder pain and after the treatment, the rotator cuff was completely healed. I got back full range of motion in that shoulder with no more pain. Today I play volleyball twice a week and my shoulder feels great!
“Additionally, Andy noticed as he was checking out various pressure points on my back, that my liver appeared stress. Andy suggested that I do more exercise and watch any foods, medications, supplements that may stress out the liver. I decided instead to do a series of colon hydrotherapy/cleanse treatments followed by an intense liver cleanse. The results proved that my liver was indeed extremely toxic. In fact, so toxic that I will need to do 3-4 more liver cleanses before the cleaning is complete. Following the liver cleanse, I felt better than I've ever felt in my life. I have Andy to thank for pointing out my stressed out liver organ.
“Thanks to Andy, I am healthier than I've ever been in my life.”
