Patient Testimonial

Patient Testimonial

"After years of suffering from shooting pains in the back of my head, I turned to Acupuncture Advantage Care for assistance on the advice of a friend.  After several sessions of acupuncture, the pain disappeared and the tightness in my upper back and base of my skull eased as well.  I have used the services of Acupuncture Advantage Care for other ailments over the years including sore throats, sinusitis, insomnia and food allergy elimination.  The combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs have either kept me from getting sick or have significantly shortened the duration and severity of ailments (which occurred when I ignored the “coming down with something” feeling and didn’t seek attention soon enough).  My family relies on Acupuncture Advantage Care’s expertise and genuine concern for our health.  They are our partners in our quest for good health.  We have been clients of Acupuncture Advantage Care since 2001."

Raphael means...God's remedy, for when he touched Tobit's eyes in order to cure him, he banished the darkness of his blindness. Thus, since he is to heal, he is rightly caused God's remedy.
