AUTISM

Dr. Weihong Yuan is absolutely awesome! The following is my journey to Dr. Yuan.

My daughter Erin was diagnosed with partial complex seizures when she was a year and a half old. She was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome not long after. Along with this she deals with excessive phlegm and anxiety.  I am a woman of faith and as I watched my daughter go into this abyss of illness I sought God on what to do and how to get her better. Through much prayer I began a journey of understanding that the seizures and autism were more than just symptoms of some brain issues. It was due to many imbalances in Erin’s life spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. I started treating Erin holistically. We became a family that practiced homeopathy. I learned about diet and how it affected our bodies. I also began to study other modalities of healing the body, including acupuncture.

Erin used to take barbiturate medications in an attempt to control the seizures but to no avail. I asked for her to be put on Tranxene which is traditionally used as an anti anxiety medication. The doctors didn’t think it would work but I didn’t like what the other medications did to her personality and cognitive abilities. Because of the traditional Chinese herbal preparations and homeopathic remedies that Erin took as her Naturopath prescribed, in less than a two year time frame Erin was able to go on Tranxene successfully. When she was on the barbiturates she had up to 15 seizures a day. Once off those meds and with continued holistic therapies we saw a vast improvement in Erin’s health and wellbeing. The seizures were significantly reduced. Then she went on the Tranxene which helped to reduce them even more. Her allopathic doctors were baffled by the fact that the seizures were under control.

As time went on Erin entered puberty which brought changes in her ability to not have seizures. I saw a direct correlation between her menstrual cycle and the seizure activity. I was able to balance her hormones and saw an immediate improvement in the seizure activity. But I realized that it wasn’t enough.  I didn’t want to have to increase her medication, which we have significantly reduced over the years. So I went on a quest to find an acupuncturist. I wanted to find someone who not only trained for acupuncture therapy, but someone who grew up in the Chinese culture because this would give them a much better understanding of this healing art. I found Dr. Weihong Yuan.

Erin and Dr. Yuan were immediate buddies. Erin loved her from the start. Her gentle personality and genuine care for Erin showed through from the first visit. Once Erin started to See Dr. Yuan I saw immediate results. The seizures were waning, the phlegm went away and Erin’s overall personality improved. She was much happier.

I too started treatments with Dr. Yuan. After every treatment I was extremely relaxed and had energy and stamina. It also helped to greatly improve my tinnitus. I am so grateful to have met Dr. Yuan and what she has done for Erin and me. She has been a blessing in our lives. I highly recommend her to everyone.
