Dear Dr. Tao, Glen
Fulton
While traveling to Italy in November 2009, I contracted a sinus
infection that first appeared as a simple Nine weeks had then passed with no relief. The ENT specialist prescribed one final course of the strongest?sinus antibiotic available, plus a follow-up CAT scan to be administered three weeks later for comparison. The follow up scan revealed very little change in the blockage, so sinus surgery was now the next logical step. The description of the surgery included breaking my septum and clipping nasal tissue, plus the likelihood of future surgeries every few years as required by most patients. The ENT doctor candidly suggested that you do whatever you can to avoid the surgery? I scheduled the sinus surgery to occur in three weeks but nonetheless had not abandoned alternative treatments. My final option was to try acupuncture, which led me to Dr. Chung-Hu Tao. Five days before the scheduled surgery, I came down with vertigo (another new illness for me), and therefore moved my first acupuncture treatment to that same afternoon with hope that it could also alleviate the dizziness of vertigo along with this extremely stubborn sinus blockage.
Having never experienced acupuncture before in my life, I had
no idea what to expect, or where to turn. Dr. Chung-Hu Tao's impressive
resume, multiple-state certifications, and professional credentials
were all very reassuring. After my initial consultation with Dr.
Tao, I immediately began an aggressive regimen of
Although my medical insurance covered no portion of my treatments
with Dr. Tao, I still saved over one
We are fortunate in the Lehigh Valley to have the wisdom, expertise
and skills of Dr. Chung-Hu Tao providing supplemental or alternative
treatments to traditional medicine. I highly recommend Dr. Tao
and will certainly seek his advice for any future medical challenges,
both for myself and for my family. "April 12, 2010 RE:
Glen Fulton My
impression today is P.S.: From the summary of E.N.T. specialist report made by Dr. Andrew W. indicated that this case that the patient has totally relieved his symptoms and it's true as patient's own testimonials states that he is no longer need for surgery for his severe rhinitis and his vertigo also resolved too." "
I am 37 years old and have dealt with chronic sinusitis
for over twenty years. After having used Western medicine for
many years and still having symptoms I wanted another alternative.
I decided to see Mr. Tao after moving to the area and not wanting
to travel to the Poconos to have acupuncture when needed. I saw
Mr. Tao for six weeks one time per week. These were during my
most problematic months September and October. After my first
visit I noticed an improvement and was able to stop using allergy
prescriptions that evening. I woke up being able to breath clearly.
I finished my six week session and am not taking any allergy medications.
I take one herb that controls post nasal drip. I know for a fact
that acupuncture works me! " "I experienced pain in my left shoulder, radiating to my left arm and also to my chest. I had electro-cardiogram and nuclear stress test, my heart is o.k. but a cervical MRI diagnosed advanced DJD at C5-6 and C6-7 with spurring and severe foraminal stenosis at C5-C6 and moderate stenosis at C6-7. The alternate was surgery or pain killers and anti-inflammatory drugs. Both of these drugs were extremely pain to my stomach. My level of pain was 8-9 scale on 10 bases which is the worst. With drugs bring it to a level 5-6 only. After 2 cycles of acupuncture treatment (10 visits is one cycle) with Chinese herbs, my level of pain down to 1-2 scale of 10 and my arm only has minor sensations now. This is tolerable as compared to the discomfort experienced before coming to see Dr. Tao.
As an additional benefit, Dr.Tao prescribed an excellent herb for my chronic sinus condition which totally relieved my allergy symptoms for years."
~ Robert M.Gris, Bethlehem, PA. "I have had migraine headaches since I was a child. As an adult, I began to also experience sinus problems, nasal allergies, dizziness, ear congestion, tinnitus and TMJ. By the time I first went to Dr. Tao, my dizziness was so bad I could barely turn my head without taking a spin. I had also been having chronic headaches every day.
I was grateful that Dr. Tao is very gentle with his patients, since I have a fear of needles. He also made special accommodations for me because my dizziness made me feel like I was falling off the patient table.
I
began to see improvement after just a few weeks of acupuncture
and herb treatments. My dizziness has been greatly reduced, and
I no longer have daily headaches. My tinnitus has improved so
much that I rarely notice it anymore. There has also been much
improvement with my sinus problems, nasal allergies, ear congestion
and TMJ. Each successive treatment seems to bring more relief.
- Maria, Hamburg, Pa. "For
years I had gone to Chiropractors and Physical Therapy without
avail. In one visit to Dr. Tao, I had feelings in my foot and
leg again. 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." "Dr.
Tao has helped my menopausal symptoms, tinnitus, sinusitis, gall
bladder and also has treated my periodontal problems. We're very
lucky to have someone who does this kind of whole-person treatment
in our area." "I
am a 33 year old man with cerebral palsy since early childhood
with allergies since age 28. My allergy symptoms indluce sneezing,
rhinorrhea, sinus headaches, cough and eustachian tube congestion
which sometimes could cause my earache and ear pressure increased.
I was unable to tolerate allergy injections, even in low dose
could cause me coughing in an hour later. I am going for acupuncture
treatment for my vertigo, and one of the treatment could last
up to 10 days and another for 30 days, the other symptom of my
coughing, asthma, wheezing and sinus congestion and headache,
depression also greatly improved and under a good control. The
medication to use for inhaled steroid also reduced. I feel I am
getting more healthy and will follow up my additional regular
visits to control my complex symptom.Thank you, Dr. Tao!" "My
daughter is a 13 year old girl with lifelong history of frequent
upper respiratory infections. In 1992 she was tested and placed
on hyposesitization injections in Houston,Texas until the fall
of 1999 became out of control. She had mild asthma and wheezing,
some conjunctivitis. Her asthma got it worse whenever had a sinus
infection which could cause her postnasal drip and some congestion.
During the worst time, she couldn't go to school and have stay
weeks at home, she had treated by allergy specialist and ENT specialist
with little or no help, and repeated the condition when the weather
gets worse or catch cold. After one of my friend highly recommended
Dr. Tao's treatment, I decided to gave Liane a try. Having a total
course of 12 visits acupuncture with herbal treatment, Liane's
condition almost totally remission. The most surprised me was
other our family members get sick, she still healthy not looks
like she was . I am so gratefull and appreciated Dr. Tao's help.
If not him, Liane should not can be so healthy and not need take
any medicine." |
