Carmela is an incredibly skilled healer who has raised my quality of life significantly since I…read morebegan seeing her. I have multiple co-morbid chronic illnesses that leave me battling chronic fatigue, pain, migraines, depression, anxiety, etc. I have seen a consistent reduction in my generalize pain, an improvement in my mood, and she's taught me skills to help me cope with my anxiety attacks. She has even helped me with my allergies. Most dramatically, though: I've been using a cane pretty consistently for years because of pain and poor balance. In our last two sessions, Carmela has treated me using the Zhu scalp acupuncture technique and, as a result of this treatment, my balance has improved significantly and my reliance on my cane has been radically reduced, to the point that I mainly use it only for stairs or for occasions when I will be on my feet for an extended period of time (like the five hours I spent walking though a recent convention, for instance). I would highly recommend Carmela to my fellow Spoonies. She is thoughtful, caring, and very gifted at what she does.

I felt defeated and hopeless. I had a relentless, rash all over for monthes - on my face, arms,…read morelegs and stomach like poison ivy that never healed. I randomly and frequently had my throat swell closed and my lips swell. I have to carry an EpiPen with my and Benadryl. I had been to two immunologist/allergists who could not help me. I had Alfa Gal from a tick bite and a secondary problem that my husband and I had found was seemed to be from sulfites found in many foods with preservatives. My son called me and suggested I try and alternative to get help with the Alfa Gal. He had spoken to his minister who also had had Alfa Gal and discovered there was a form of acupuncture that could help. He found Carmela Mager, who had 25 years of experience and had learned this particular form of therapy. We made the appointment which changed both our lives! Carmela informed us as to how she would treat the Alfa Gal ( which made me intolerant of beef, lamb and pork) and then gave me a list of things to avoid that may help. She prescribed enzymes and a probiotic which helped enormously. She told me to do some reading on sulfite allergy. I did! I found studies on it which matched my life! Within a week, I started seeing the rash slowly heal. The acupuncture not only got rid of the Alfa Gal but also my hips no longer hurt. I can now eat pork, beef and lamb again. I started to have more energy. I can garden as I love to do. I felt and feel GOOD! My husband has been doing most of the cooking lately. He says we are on this journey together. Carmela has made life better for us both. She has a wealth of knowledge and generously share it! Our great thanks to her! PWB

Dr. Ping Dr. Ping is…read moretruly the reason I have a baby. I was told, after being diagnosed with Asherman's Syndrome after a routine D&C due to a missed miscarriage, that I'd never carry a child. My uterus was covered in scar tissue and once that was cleared by a specialist in Boston, I found Dr. Ping through several fertility groups. This was truly a Godsend. Dr. Ping is more knowledgeable about women's fertility than many Reproductive Endocrinologists - and I had several. He's trained as a medical doctor in China and his approach is state of the art, holistic, empathetic, and thorough. I went to him weekly for 6 months of fertility acupuncture and we got pregnant with twin boys naturally with no medication or IVF after being told by all my doctors that we'd need to use a surrogate. As someone in my early 30's with no living children, I was clinging to any hope I could and Dr. Ping delivered. He was actually the first person I texted when the wheels fell off and we lost one of our twin boys. However, my surviving twin is thriving and such a miracle and would not be here without God and Dr. Ping. His wife is wonderful snd they both just care and want to help. I've referred my father-in-law for severe back pain, my mother for sciatica, and anyone who is struggling with fertility or secondary fertility to come here. You won't be sorry. Take all the Chinese herbs too. He knows his stuff! I owe so much gratitude to the phenomenal Dr. Ping.

Dr. Ping has treated my spinal war injury for over 13 years. His techniques are extra ordinary…read more He's the best at what he does, bar none. Unfortunately, his receptionist (wife) needs corrective training. Over the years she has been very rude towards me and my mother, who have visited many times for treatment. Her behavior got to the point we discontinued getting treatment at this facility. I notice there is a difference in how this receptionist treat minorities, compared to non-minorities. It troubles me to post this, but it has to be done
