Autoimmune Support & Inflammatory Conditions
In the months I’ve come to see you, I can only say: I trust you. My two autoimmune conditions are so much better. I hardly notice any symptoms. My new diet is working well, though sometimes I miss my old diet, I don’t miss the way I used to feel. The herbs and acupuncture have been so helpful in my recovery. Thank you, thank you!

In the meantime… I have some very good news! I am starting to have normal bowel movements, and the joint pain from my rheumatoid arthritis is lessening by the day. You were right about “heal my gut and my joints will follow.” I think it may have taken longer for the supplement you gave me to work because of the antibiotics I took in December.
I’m not pain-free yet and still have some digestive issues, but both have significantly improved! I am continuing to take all of the herbs, etc., and will track my progression until I see you again next month. At that time, if I’m not 100% or any further along, I’ll follow up on your other suggestions. Thank you so much for all you’ve done to help me feel better! You are AWESOME!

I really think this is doing something for my RA. My left hand had much less pain all week. The right hand pain moved to my knuckles but is improved. My right shoulder is much better, and the muscles in my neck and shoulders are looser. That’s pretty good!

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) & Neurological Wellness
I have had you in my thoughts for several days and decided I should put the thoughts in writing. You have made me more comfortable with treatment and options than I have probably ever been. Typically, doctors just associate any concerns with my MS—and maybe that is justified—but I am so excited about the idea that you can, and would, help me feel better.
I am so tired of being achy and tired all of the time. When I come in on Wednesday, I hope there will be some time that we might discuss. My back is SoOOOO much better!!! Thank you!!!!! Thank you!!!

When swimming laps yesterday, I realized my energy is so much better—no one would ever know that I have MS!

Kidney Health & Energy Recovery
Yesterday I saw you for treatment of my stage four kidney failure. The acupuncture technique you used on my back is working like a miracle. This morning, I felt great with lots of energy—it seems like my body chi is in perfect balance for the first time in a long time.
Thank you for caring about my illness and your consultation. I hope to see you again in the next two weeks for another treatment.

Whole-Family Healing & Pediatric Immune Conditions
Treating the Triad: Asthma, Eczema & Peanut Allergies
I’m so excited about the results we’re seeing with our daughter. I know this is long! I’ve attached a picture of her—so full of personality!
Our daughter was exclusively breastfed, loved egg yolks and liver, joyfully took cod liver oil, and always asked for seconds on sauerkraut. That’s why I was shocked when she reacted to a tiny bit of peanut at 17 months—eyes swelling and sneezing. She later developed respiratory issues that sent us to the ER, and persistent eczema around her mouth. She was eventually diagnosed with the “triad”: asthma, eczema, and peanut allergy.
We weren’t willing to just hope she’d “outgrow” it. After much research and prayer, we took these steps:
- Trusted God more.
- Moved out of our moldy apartment.
- Started the GAPS + Whole30 healing diet with guidance from our OHS practitioner.
- Gave her a strong probiotic, cod liver oil, and other recommended supplements.
- Spent time outside daily.
The results:
- Eczema GONE after one month.
- No daily asthma meds! She just made it through a cold without steroids—just albuterol three times.
- We’re hopeful to retest for peanut sensitivity soon.
The practitioner at OHS supported us every step of the way. We’re still on a GAPS-inspired diet, feeling great, and even our in-laws have seen weight loss just by eating what we cook.

Long-Term Vitality & Life Transformation
I am less sensitive to smells. I helped my daughter move and was sore but recovered quicker than usual. I’ve stopped taking omeprazole. I’m sleeping and resting better (except for last night). You are helping my health more than anyone else I’ve seen. Thank you.

I have to tell you that my wife and I were talking about you this evening, and she said, “You know, I think your practitioner has saved your life.” And I thought to myself—she’s right.
Thank you for your thorough approach to your work. You have greatly improved my quality of life. See you soon.
