Living with chronic pain is more than just a physical burden; it’s an emotional one that dictates how you move, work, and enjoy life. For many of our patients, the road to recovery has been long, often involving years of “managing” symptoms rather than healing them.
In this patient testimonial, one of our clients shares her incredible journey of overcoming five years of intense back and hip pain through specialized acupuncture treatments here in Edina.
Watch the Testimonial: Immediate Relief for Chronic Back & Hip Pain
“I Knew I Had Come to the Right Place”
When this patient first visited Complete Oriental Medical Care, she had been struggling with hip and back pain for over half a decade. She describes the pain as “intense”—the kind of discomfort that makes daily life a constant struggle.
What makes her story so powerful is how quickly her body responded. She noted that after just the first few needles were inserted, she felt immediate relief. By staying consistent with her treatments, her pain levels moderated to the point where she could finally stand comfortably and reclaim her mobility.
Why Not All Acupuncture is the Same
One of the most interesting parts of her story is the comparison she made to other treatments. While traveling in Arkansas, she tried a traditional method of acupuncture but found the results were neither as quick nor as “forgiving” as the care she received from Steven Sonmore, L.Ac.
This highlights the Complete Oriental Medical Care Difference:
-
Experience Matters: With over 30 years of experience, Steven Sonmore, L.Ac. understands how to tailor treatments to the individual’s unique needs.
-
A Soothing Environment: We prioritize a private, comfortable setting—no large “community” rooms here.
-
A Holistic Approach: We don’t just “poke needles”; we look at the whole person, using Chinese herbology and nutritional counseling to support long-term healing.
From Pain Management to Good Health
Today, this patient is thriving. She is using fewer needles during her sessions and is focused on maintaining her “good health” rather than just escaping pain. As she says in the video, “It really works… I would tell my best friend and my neighbor to come to Steven.”
