For almost thirty years I have relied on acupuncture to heal from illness and injury. Ten years ago when I moved to Paradise I found Sheryl to be an attentive and capable practitioner. Her skill with herbal medicine and acupuncture nursed me through one of the most dire flues I have ever had. Also during stressful times I have used acupuncture to assist me, most recently as I undertook a Graduate degree. Often during an acupuncture treatment I would fall asleep, aside from rebalancing my system, this would allow me to recover the much needed rest that I had missed due to studying, reading, or paper writing. Furthermore, I have found that when I injure a muscle acupuncture can relax the strain.

I was dealing with depression for the first time and realized later on that my non-related medications for physical issues was triggering much of this. Rather than go on expensive and complicated anti-depressants that cause undesirable side effects, I sought Sheryl’s help for a natural alternative. She suggested a practical and inexpensive herbal formula that worked beautifully and without harsh side effects. I did not need to stay on this regimen past a year, and once I removed the offending medication I was able to restore balance again quickly with the herbal formula. I’ve used this on two occasions and would highly recommend this option to anyone. Thank you Sheryl!

Dear Sheryl,
I want to thank you for helping me deal with my back pain and sinuses along with many other conditions. You listened to me and have helped me so much over the years.
I know I will never be pain free or cured. Acupuncture, Homeopathic medicines and your personal care has given me the opportunity to take control of my health conditions and manage my pain.

Acupuncture has greatly improved my circulation and lets me know where my blockages are. Having a Herrington rod in my back (scoliosis) for the last 37 years and then being in a car accident has been hard on my body.

I am grateful to you that I did not become addicted to medicines prescribed for me to deal with the pain. Your kindness, care and support has been so valuable to me.
Side affects of my prescribed medications were as bad as my symptoms. I felt like I had no other options before coming to you.

Acupuncture has helped me immensely. After trying conventional treatment and medication I turned to acupuncture. Heavenly Herbs and Acupuncture in Paradise has been my treatment of choice for the past few years. The pain in my low back and hip are so much better now.
I highly recommend acupuncture.

Dear Sheryl,
Just wanted to drop you a note to say thanks for all you’ve done for us and our daughter over the past years. We’ve challenged you with a wide variety of issues and you’ve always come through for each of us. Not only the acupuncture, but your special tinctures, herbal remedies and enlightened advice have been not only helpful but invaluable to all of us. We couldn’t have asked for more – you are a true “healer” in every sense of that word. Thanks again and we’ll be seeing you again soon.
We wish you years of sunshine with a few clouds and beautiful tree for shade and protection. YOU are indeed a very special lady.
Hugs,
Sallie and Gary Nuber

Sheryl’s acupuncture helped me to relax and release in many ways. The knee pain took about 2-3 sessions, plus homeopathy and nutritional changes supported the healing. Before and after dental surgery, her acupuncture helped me to balance what was needed and heal well. The informative resources have been self-supporting! Her expertise is in herbs and acupuncture! The office setting has a healing comforting ambiance for sure. Thank you Sheryl,
P.L.

Homeopathic remedy for trauma/injury: Traumeel

This natural, analgesic, anti-inflammatory homeopathic remedy can help ease most musculoskeletal pain due to trauma/injury (including surgery). This includes most arthritis pain and nerve pain such as sciatica and neuropathy (also includes nervines – herbs to calm nerves). Although I have many strong Chinese herbal formulas for pain in my clinic, I often initially recommend this product since it very often (I estimate 90% effectiveness) gives immediate relief with regular use. I have seen this ‘cure’ severe cholicky gallbladder pain, ulcerative colitis pain, etc.

This product comes in a topical creme (with no odor – no menthol or camphor), or internal use drops. (alcohol-based) or tabs (sublingual).

It is a very safe replacement for over-the-counter NSAIDS (non-steriodal anti-inflammatories, such as ibuprofen, tylenol, naproxen, etc.) and can even replace presription pain medications such as Vicodin, Norco) without the side effects plus it actually helps heal tissues whereas NSAIDS do not!

I participated in Acupuncture Awareness Day at the state Capitol in Sacramento on April 23, 2009. We gave people acupuncture out on the lawn area surrounding the Capitol building – it was a great event to have legislators and their staff experience the benefits of acupuncture first-hand! There have been at least two previous Acupuncture Awareness Days at the Capitol that I recall. This year’s was in conjunction with the American Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (AAAOM) 2009 Conference in Sacramento. An article, “Expo 2009 – Solidarity in Sacramento for the Good of the Medicine”can be found on page 32 of the Spring 2009 edition of the American Acupuncturist, the AAAOM journal.

Here are some pictures of the day’s events:
