"On March 15,2000, I was hit at a red light and pushed me on the passenger side to the red light which fall on my car. I was found my car floor and admitted overnight by the Trauma service at Lehigh valley Hospital. I was then referred by my family Doctor to see physical therapy three times a week for seven weeks which was not helpful. Then I referred by my family Doctor again to see a pain specialist who ordered an MRI, which revealed a fracture at the 9th thoracic veterbra. I was given two epidural injections and told that I would have to live with this pain. In addition this, I also have pain in my right side of my back and thorax in the muscle with a reconstructed foot required for my fractured foot. In the past, I have to wear a back, neck, and foot brace and unable to be upright for more than two hours or I have to lie down to reduce the pain. After I treated by Dr. Tao with acupuncture, magnetic cupping and Chinese herbs, my pain level from 8 of 10 down to wear off for 4-5 days which let me could deal with pain without pain medication and zoloft , Xanax as well. I do appreciate Dr. Tao's help."

After 3 more visits, I felt like my old self again-with the herbs you had given me, my sinus cleared up, my respiratory breathy also cleared up and the numbering discomfort sensations was gone. How does one thank someone who has given me back my leg and boosted my self image? Dr. Tao, I can simply say thank you and God Bless you. thank you again, my friend."

"I am a 47 year old female with at least two year history of plantar fasciitis. I was initially treated with Vioxx eighteen months ago with partial response. I was next treated by a podiatrist with three steroid injections into the heel plus Vioxx. The next step is apparently endoscopic surgery. To avoid surgery as possible, I had acupuncture treatments by Dr. Tao for about 10 visits with using patents Chinese herbs and extracted herbal patch. I am glad to say, the pain has gone and I could walk as normal and very happy not need to take for endoscopic surgery."
