"I
have battled Hashimoto's Thyroiditis-Hypothyroidism and adrenal
insufficiency for years. I have seen two Endocrinologists, an
MD of Internal Medicine, and a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine
- all of whom have
prescribed various doses and combinations of Synthroid, Levoxyl,
Westhroid, Armour Thyroid, Cytomel, and Cortef. I felt no better
taking these prescriptions and actually became physically over-stimulated
by them while
my blood work (TSH, T3, T4 and Cortisol levels) continued to
show no improvement from their initial below normal levels.
Needless to say, I felt exhausted and sick all of the time.
I started seeing Dr. Tao in February.
He focused on my symptoms and using acupuncture and his wonderful
herbs, my thyroid and cortisol levels are now testing normal.
This was accomplished
in 3 ? months - amazing! I have much more energy and clarity
of thought.
Along the way, Dr. Tao also recognized and addressed my Anxiety
Disorder and his treatments have diminished this problem too.
I haven't felt this calm nor slept this well in decades. Thank
you to Dr. Tao for giving me my life
back ¨C you are the best!

"I
am a 52 year old man with a history of Graves disease and diagnosed
one year ago and confirmed with TSH from blood test. A thyroid
scan was done and showed no nodules. I was placed Tapazole for
four months and went into remission and followed by a relapse
eight months later. With the relapse, I decided to find an acupuncturist
with a real herbal medicine background and fortunately, I found
Dr. Tao from Internet.
My
symptom included palpitations, weight loss of 5 lbs, scratchy
eyes and fatigue. I feel much better after second treatment.
On the third treatment, I have no eye symptom and palpitation.
In addition the acupuncture treatment, I also taking three Chinese
herbs, one for the thyroid, one for the palpitations and one
for the eyes. After I finished one cycle-12 visits, I do feel
calm and much less stress than before. Now I come once every
two weeks for maintenance and very satisfied the progress so
far."
