Being a normally active person, I had found it really difficult to have to limit my activities due to an ankle sprain that persisted in being troublesome for over 6 months. After trying the usual treatments of physiotherapy and exercises and still being in pain, I decided to try acupuncture. I found it really strange at first that Melissa put needles in my wrist, but when I tried moving my foot, I found that the pain was no longer there and I could move my injured foot to almost the same as my uninjured foot! After a couple more treatments my pain was relieved, the swelling was gone, and I could move my foot normally again. I will continue to use Melissa’s health advice and go for occasional wellness treatments.
