Client Testimonials
I started with acupuncture after having almost 3 years of constant discomfort inside my head as a result of brain surgery. I had tried medications, seen my neurosurgeon several times about it. A neurologist suggested injecting a medication to reduce and possibly stop the discomfort. I wasn't thrilled with being injected in the scalp with anything. Acupuncture was suggested by some family members and friends that use it for asthma and pain relief. After two appointments the discomfort is drastically reduced. It has also reduced the noises I have in my ears due to hearing loss. I wear hearing aides and have always had a constant background sound in my head, and recently realized that too has diminished quite a bit. I am amazed at acupuncture ! I am continuing to go for treatments for the relief of other aches and pains. Thank you Sandy for clearing my head!

I had been having stomach gas and distention and had been constipated. I knew from previous visits to Sandy that she was great at restoring balance in my body. After only one treatment, I felt better the very next day. My symptoms disappeared and regularity returned. I've seen Sandy for general wellness visits as well as for specific problems. She is very patient, kind and listens both to what you are saying verbally and what your body is telling her. I've always had great results - she did a great job after I broke my wrist to help speed the healing process. She is gentle and the process is calming and restorative - even for the "needle-averse"! I would definitely recommend her healing touch to anyone.

After years of living with pain, having many surgeries and dealing with a sensitivity to many medications, the last thing I wanted to hear from my doctor was the need for another surgery. I had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and arthritis in the foot. I cannot take anti-inflammatory medicines which left nothing to ease the constant pain in my foot other than surgery to scrape and fuse the bones together or cortisone shots. The fibromyalgia kept me in constant pain. I researched on line and found acupuncture could help both issues. A friend that is a nurse highly recommended Sandy. I really didn't know what to expect but I was desperate to find relief without surgery.
After the first session I left feeling a little different. The second session gave me almost 24 hours of feeling comfortable in my own feet, a first in many years. On my third visit I shared with Sandy that I had very little sleep the previous two nights because I couldn't get my mind to shut down when I tried to sleep. It was as though 3 or 4 thoughts were playing a game of tag in my head. By time I left, my mind was clear and I was thinking just one thought at a time. Such blessed relief.
On my fourth visit with Sandy I had much to share with her. During the week as I greeted fellow workers, several would ask what was up. They told me I looked as though I had a fantastic secret. I reflected on their comments and realized, I HAD NO PAIN! None in my body and my feet felt great! Amazing! I enjoyed this wonderful feeling of wellness for two to three hours each morning. I have no doubt that as we continue with my treatments the hours of pure comfort will increase. I had knee replacements in both legs about five years ago. When touching my knees since then, it has always felt as though a large balloon was stretched across each knee. There wasn't a lot of touch sensation. Earlier that week I had reached down to scratch an itch and it felt as though I had gouged myself. I looked down expecting to see a bleeding scratch. There wasn't one. The feelings and sensations had returned to my knees! They are starting to feel like they are part of me again.
Sandy Camper is one of the kindest, most compassionate and caring people I know. When she asks how you are doing, she truly listens to your answer, understands your pain and rejoices in your successes.
My life is changing as I continue with my treatments. I am much happier without the constant pain and with no unpleasant side effects from putting drugs into my body. I feel as though I am living my life not just making it through another day.

I started going to the acupuncturist to treat infertility. I tried 3 different acupuncturists before finding Sandy. She was the second acupuncturist to check my tongue and pulses, and the first that I could feel a significant difference after just one treatment. Sandy treated me for stress levels, anxiety, colds, back and neck pain, and fertility. I went to her once or twice a week for 5 cycles -- some natural some IVF. I saw results for all treatments. I have complex fertility issues -- blood clotting, genetic, and hormonal. Sandy helped me get my cycles regular and I conceived 3 times and now have a healthy 5 yr old. Infertility is very stressful, and working with Sandy made such a HUGE difference in my physical and mental state. I highly recommend her.
