After two separate weeks of acupuncture treatments at Northwest Arkansas Acupuncture Center, I am extremely excited and pleased with my results. Since I have Stargardt’s disease, my eye doctor has done nothing but give me the bad news of my worsening condition for the last ten or so years. He saw some improvement after my first week of acupuncture, but after the second week of treatment I received the amazing news that my eyesight is back to where it was in 2007. I am SO excited since that is four years I have had given back to me. I can’t wait until I can go back to get more acupuncture treatments from Dr. Liz, and see how much more eyesight I can regain. After being told for years that there was medically no hope for my eyes until they perfected retina replacement, I now have hope again!
