I gave all my symptoms and concerns and she referred me to a mindfulness coach & they refused to see me; saying they don't think they can help. I'm pretty sure a mindfulness coach isn't going to cure me of hormone imbalance, potential mold toxicity, potential parasites, gut imbalances, allergens, etc. I need testing done for those things. They refused to see me, because I told her my psychological symptoms in relation to my physical symptoms! When the body is chronically inflamed there are going to be psychological symptoms ‍ Lesa said that psych problems can cause physical health problems.....obviously?!! & while this is true in certain cases (mental illness can rear it's ugly head in many ways, IBS, Chronic nausea, dry mouth, even infertility and so on); this is not my case. I know my body. She said that many of their clients treated their brain first and didn't end up needing the testing. I'm not sure how seeing a mindfulness coach can starve parasites, cure celiac, treat mold poisoning and maybe even reverse cancer. But ok! I could have just gone back to a western doctor to be told this considering I, along with everyone else I know have been gaslit our entire lives by them. It's ironic that that they talk about exactly this on their website... She was so misinformed; on top of this whole process costing thousands and thousands of dollars. I wish I checked the Yelp reviews before wasting my time on a phone consultation. Wtf is this business for?? Weight loss??

Not to mention that the quality of care and service is EXCEPTIONAL! I have been struggling with infertility for the last 2.5 years. I have been desperate to find a practitioner that could treat me holistically without the use of drugs and use alternative therapies for the mind, body and soul. I was drawn to HHCC exactly for all the above. Kim at HHCC offers herbology and healing touch which was exactly what I was seeking . After much research on my own, the use of herbs, healing touch in addition to acupuncture can increase the odds of a successful pregnancy. It was meant to be! Healing touch has brought me so much inner peace and well being during such a stressful and emotional time in my life. I highly recommend Kim at HHCC ! I am due July 2014

First of all, I am such a skeptic, don't believe in this at all AND I hate needles. I had been…read moresuffering with muscle pain in my right arm due to repeated use during my volunteer work. I visited my doctor in early December when I became so uncomfortable because of the pain. I could not push open a heavy door or lift anything even just somewhat heavy. I couldn't reach behind me and the pain woke me as I slept. My doctor recommended PT and I met with a therapist in January, where I was given several exercises and directions to attempt to ease my pain. I found some relief but not enough. I was still taking Tylenol and Aleve in an effort to function and to sleep. In May, a gentleman where I volunteered told me acupuncture helped him greatly. Still skeptical , I mentioned this to a relative and she encouraged me to give it a try since her husband went to Frank Grill and found this treatment to be remarkably helpful. So I went , less than enthusiastically, but I found both Angela and Frank Grill, two very kind people, assured me that this could indeed work. The "happy ending" is this. After only two treatments, I was off the pain medication. After my next treatment , I found myself able to lift items up to 5 pounds but , most of all, I can sleep without pain. I am no longer that skeptic. One of my best decisions ever. (Oh, and the needle part? I hardly knew he was "poking at me" )

I saw three neurologists, a pain management specialist, had Radio-frequency ablation which only made it worse, tried different types of pain medication and went to a physical therapist. Nothing worked. I was at my wits end. A friend recommended Frank. After 2 treatments I started feeling better. After 4 more I no longer had any pain! I was pain free for 13 months and felt wonderful... Early this fall the headaches returned. I had other health issues that may have caused the headaches to return. I visited Frank again and Voila! After 5 treatments the headaches are gone! I have to say, "It's amazing!" I highly recommend Frank. He's kind, considerate, down to earth and is wonderful about explaining the how's and why's of the practice of acupuncture. I plan to set up a maintenance program with him. When you enter the office you are greeted by Angela. She is warm, friendly and I consider her to be my friend. She has a great sense of humor and makes you feel at home!

I have only had my first Reiki session, but I look forward to going back for more. Immediately after my session I could tell that I started to "Let Go" of all of the baggage inside of me. I have a long way to go to be free of everything, but I feel like it is working and I am finally taking a step in the right direction towards healing. Faith was so kind and caring that I look forward to going about this process with her.

He was willing to work with my western doctors, which was great. In June 2019, I unfortunately got shingles of left side of face. Dr Xu had a herbal poultice I put on shingle spots. Almost immediately, they stopped hurting, spreading, and healing. It took about 3 weeks of putting poultice on, but no scarring at all and it worked like a charm.
