Dear Dr. Kuhn,

I want to offer my most sincere thanks for the care you have given me over the past year. When I came to you, my husband and I were trying to conceive a child. After several tests, we were diagnosed with "unexplained infertility" and opted to try infertility treatments. We were in the midst of treatments when I came to you for help, none of which had been successful. You assured me that we would have a child and through your help with the acupuncture treatments and Qi Gong, we were successful. I just gave birth to a beautiful baby boy and I know that it would not have been possible without your help.

The painless treatments allowed me to relax and to cleanse my system of the blockages. I was completely at ease with you and the treatments, despite not knowing that much about acupuncture when I came to you. I know that the treatments made the difference for us and allowed us to conceive a child. Your guidance, kindness, and compassion helped me through a tough time and we are so grateful for everything you did to help us.

You are a wonderful doctor and a true healer. Thank you for everything!

With the warmest regards,
TM

My phone consultations with Dr. Kuhn were extremely helpful to me. She was very thorough considering the time frame we had to work with. She encouraged me to go for acupuncture and told me how to know if I am going to a good acupuncturist or not. As it turns out my first experience with acupuncture did nothing after several weeks of treatment.

During my second phone consultation with Dr. Kuhn, she advised that I stop going to that acupuncturist and suggested I shop around until I found none that would help me. She said I would know when I found the right none, and she was right. Now I go to a very competent and wise acupuncturist/herbalist who treats my whole body...the whole person.

Dr. Kuhn also encouraged me to stop my negative thinking and now whenever I catch myself sulking or becoming fearful, I think of what she has told me and snap myself out of it. For me the phone consultations were great because I do not live anywhere near Dr. Kuhn's office and this was a way to gain guidance for my particular health issues from a good and compassionate doctor of Chinese Medicine.

Now I continue being treated with Chinese Medicine in my own area and Dr. Kuhn was the key to that. I am very grateful.">

Dear Dr Kuhn,

I have been meaning to write to you for some time. I want to let you know with my sincerest thanks how grateful I am to you for the care you have given me. It is difficult to explain how your treatment has changed my life.—I think the best way to say it is to say that you gave me my life back.

When I met you I was 30 years old and a mother of one, a two year old son. I was having pains in my legs that caused me to have difficulty walking (especially on stairs, and especially carrying anything, which is difficult when you’re a mom). I also had back pain, which I have had beginning in high school, which when it flared up left me in tears, lying on the floor. I was having trouble working (I’m a nurse, and am very physically active at work). My pains were getting worse, and kept me up at night, worrying and in pain. Where would I end up?

I had been to doctors and physical therapy . They meant well but they had no answers and solutions. The best they had was some tight foam braces that cut into my legs and cut off my circulation. I had no choice but to wear them. They kept me walking. I couldn’t believe this was my fate at 30 years old.

I was nervous to try acupuncture. I didn’t understand it, and I wasn’t sure it was the right treatment for my pain. You were so caring and reassuring. You let me know right away that there was nothing serious wrong with me, and how long treatments would take. I decided to go ahead with whatever you said. It was the right choice. You started me on Qi Gong exercise, which was a key to my healing, and is still a necessary part of my day. And you told me to come twice a week for acupuncture. The treatment was fine, not painless, but not painful. The exercise is not time consuming or difficult.

In just a few months my pains had completely disappeared. I was able to climb stairs normally, work normally, chase after my son, and even consider having another child. I felt terrific. You even helped me to get pregnant the second time, when after “trying” for a year, I was still not pregnant, you suggested acupuncture for fertility treatment. You said the treatment usually took three months to work. In three months I was pregnant.

I am so grateful to have such a kind, understanding, knowledgeable doctor. I thank God for you and for the work you do. There are other people who practice Chinese medicine, but you are a true healer, and I am so glad I have you for mine.

Sincerely,

JM
