Restless Leg Syndrome

“When did you first come to the Raya Clinic and what brought you in to seek help?
I have been a patient for many years. I recently started acupuncture for my Restless Leg Syndrome that started some months ago. I am not sure what the cause was. It was so sever that it would wake my wife up. I would have to sleep on the couch. So She could get some sleep.
What else had you tried before visiting the Raya Clinic (i.e., other physicians, physical therapists, chiropractors, etc.) and what were the results?
I told my Orthopedic surgeon about it an he prescribed me medication. I had no results from it. I also tried sleeping with a pillow between my legs.

With in a few weeks of treatments I notice it wasn't as bad. It was getting better. Now I sleep though the night without bothering my wife. No more sleeping on the couch for me. ”

3 Compressure Fractures

“When did you first come to the Raya Clinic and what brought you in to seek help?
May 2004, when a friend recommended that I see a Chiropractor or Acupuncturist. I fell and injured my back ( 3 compressure fractures.) This was the worst pain in my life. My doctor sent me to a physical therapist.
What else had you tried before visiting the Raya Clinic (i.e., other physicians, physical therapists, chiropractors, etc.) and what were the results?
I saw a Physical Therapist. I did this for 5 months with no relief. I remember thinking if I have to be in this kind of pain forever, I just don't think I want to live.
Describe your successes since beginning care at the Raya Clinic.
Not only did Dr. Raya and her staff give me back my life but helped me after a recent surgery. I had thyroid surgery. After I was home for a day and a half after surgery, my neck and shoulders got tight and hurt. I put ice packs on the back of my neck and shoulders but it didn't help. I called Dr. Raya and told her what happened. I went to see Dr. Raya and after 1 treatment I was relieved of the pain and tightness, almost immediately. I was not surprised! I have learned more about my first injury and how to fix it. I recently found out that the reason my back kept hurting was because the exercise the physical therapist had me doing was aggravating my injury we were trying to fix.
How has this changed your life?
Dr. Raya gave me back my life, I am sure she is not aware of what she's done for me. I can do almost everything I did before. ”

Tendonitis

“When did you first come to the Raya Clinic and what brought you in to seek help?
Mid May 2008. I Chose the Raya Clinic because of their informative website. It basically answered just about all my questions and explained all they had to offer. I sought acupuncture for what i thought was tendinitis in both arms. It has been an on going issue for about five years that flares up every golf season. It was so severe this year that it required me to wear tendon straps on both arms to play a round of golf or to sometimes even turn the page of a book.
What else had you tried before visiting the Raya Clinic (i.e., other physicians, physical therapists, chiropractors, etc.) and what were the results?
In the past I have been treated by two other chiropractors and an acupuncturist. My results with previous chiropractors and acupuncturist were minimal since they were only treating the affected areas and not the body as a whole. The pain returned with in a few weeks of treatment
Describe your successes since beginning care at the Raya Clinic.
Since beginning acupuncture with Dr. Raya, I have now turned over all my chiropractic needs to her and her staff. I look forward to my weekly visit and have experience a sense of calmness that has been lacking from my hectic life. I have also begun wearing orthotics, which i had said earlier in life that i wouldn't be caught dead wearing. Within less than a week of breaking them in i noticed that the twinge I've had in my knees for years is totally gone, as well as hip pain that i have had for about 20 years. Since wearing the orthotics during gold i have noticed that i don't tire as easily during 18 holes and that my swing and balance have a better tempo/rhythm than previous. I have to credit the orthotics, chiropractic and acupuncture for shaving 2 strokes off my handicap!
How has this changed your life?
Thanks Raya Clinic for your vast knowledge and your enthusiastic desire to heal people from the inside out!”

February 2012 for severe pain in my shoulders and neck caused by knots which i caused by not sleeping correctly or using the right kind of pillow.
