What will my acupuncturist do?

By admin | Published August 11, 2011

During the initial exam a full health history will be taken. Questions will be asked regarding symptoms, health and lifestyle. Your acupuncturist also may check pulses and your tongue and may conduct a physical exam. This information is then organized to create a complete, accurate and comprehensive diagnosis of where Qi has become blocked or imbalanced. After the interview process, you may receive an acupuncture treatment. Visits with your acupuncturist may last from thirty to
ninety minutes.

Testimonials

With Dr. Boxer’s extensive knowledge of Nutrition, she has recommended changes to my diet and helped me make healthy choices in what I should eat. She follows up by providing me more relevant information during my visits and also by sending me reading materials in the areas of Nutrition, Women’s health, Cancer prevention, and Stress management.

At the start of each visit, Dr. Boxer patiently finds out my particular areas of concern and determines the appropriate Acupuncture treatment. Her personal approach shows that she is dedicated to her profession and is sincere with her patients.

“I have been seeing Dr. Boxer for 10 months now and the experience has been great. She is very caring and knowledgeable. I always enjoy our weekly session as it is relaxing and soothing. After working with Dr. Boxer for 5 months utilizing Acupuncture & Herbs, my husband and I successfully conceived twins from our first IVF attempt! I strongly believe Dr. Boxer’s treatments played an important role in our success, and I am continuing Acupuncture throughout my pregnancy. I am always appreciative of her help and support. I highly recommend Dr. Boxer without any reservations!”

“After utilizing Western Medicine and prescripton drugs for years for my diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), I realized I needed another approach. I experienced negative side effects from the drugs and was not getting better.

It has been over a year and half since I started seeing Dr. Mindy Boxer for Nutritional Counseling, Natural remedies and Acupuncture to regulate my periods. My periods became regular and I started ovulating. After about nine months of treatment, I got pregnant ~ experienced a healthy pregnancy with regular Acupuncture treatments ~ and gave birth to a beautiful and healthy baby boy! Thanks to Dr. Mindy for her care and guidance.”

Dr. Boxer’s well rounded knowledge and talents in nutrition, Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture make her a perfectly suited health care professional for my needs. First off, I was very skeptical about the whole acupuncture thing. She has such a delicate and precise technique. You rarely feel ANYTHING!! Except of course energized after the session.
More often than not, besides treating and alleviating the aches and pains, I leave with a HIGH — feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

I’ve also availed myself of her knowledge of nutrition and Chinese herbs. I now eat very well balanced (she turned me on to excellent books and ideas that are not fads. Just great and fantastic). Several of her cold remedies and vitamins are excellent and most effective. Good energy ,knowledge, effectiveness, pleasant, accessible and flexible to the client’s needs— -that about sums up Dr. Mindy Boxer.

“Before I came to Mindy, I suffered from extreme menstrual symptoms– such as vice-grip headaches, excessive bleeding, overly emotional, an overall fogginess, etc. After about four weeks under her care, I began to slowly see the once debilitating symptoms, begin to lessen. That was a year and a half ago. Since then, I have been able to apply acupuncture and herbal medicine to all areas of my life, including depression, anxiety, a concussion from a random accident, even the common cold.
I’m generally someone who is not comfortable with doctors, but Mindy is warm, extremely compassionate and genuinely cares about my health and well being. She’s extremely passionate about what she does, and continuously strives to stay abreast of the most current methods.

“I have seen many results in the last year, and now consider acupuncture, herbal medicine and Mindy Boxer a part of taking great care of

“After I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I looked into alternative treatment in addition to conventional methods. I truly credit my work with Dr. Mindy as part of the reason for my successful battle over breast cancer. Her treatment included acupuncture, nutritional advice, and herbal formulas. I felt confident in her experience and knowledge of holistic medicine. I appreciate that Dr. Mindy looks at the whole person when making treatment decisions. Dr. Mindy is a very passionate person and she has created a very peaceful space. I continue to see Dr. Mindy as part of my overall healthy lifestyle. Acupuncture is so relaxing…it’s better than a massage.”
