Hi
my name is Camille Monson.
I am ten years old and in
fifth
grade. I have been going to
see Miss Britta for acupuncture
since I was four years old.
She has helped me with my
Asthma. I was using a breathing
treatment machine and on a
lot of medication. But three
months after a started to
see her I didn't need the breathing
machine or the meds. I also
had eczema soon that was gone
too. I still see Miss Britta
for tune-ups colds, and anything
else that bothers me. Miss
Britta and me are working
together so that soon my seizures
will stop. I trust her with
all my heart and with my life
she is my friend too! Miss
Britta has helped me so much
and I recommend her to anyone
else. Thank
You Miss Britta!

PS:
Recently this sweet little
patient came in to see
me with her whole family
to let me know the great
news that her latest EEG
shows no more seizure
activity! She is now weaning
off her medications slowly,
as she continues to receive
acupuncture treatments
while doing so.
Britta
is a friend of mine. We became
acquainted at yoga where she
teaches an Ashtanga class.
Last week I gave her a massage
and in return, she insisted
that I have an acupuncture
treatment. I did not know anything
about this modality except
that thin needles are inserted
into the skin. I went there
yesterday afternoon with no
expectation whatsoever other
than a curious mind about what
I was going to experience.
I had no ailment that needed
specific attention. I climbed
on a heated massage table,
face up. She took my pulse,
looked at my tongue, palpated
my abdomen (which instantly
beamed me years back when
my godfather who was a doctor
used to do the same thing
when we were feeling under
the weather). She then asked
me if I was afraid of needles
which I answered by the negative
and she started inserting them
in different parts of my body:
legs, arms, abdomen, face,
top of my head. We were having
a light conversation when she
began the procedure and by
the time she reached my face,
I was drifting into a very
peaceful place and did not
want to talk. She then covered
me with a very light aluminum
foil type of sheet, dimmed
the light in the room, put
on some relaxing music and
left the room. I was very aware
of the heat underneath my body,
an incredible cocoony feeling
of wellbeing, my hands getting
heavier and I stayed in that
state until she came back into
the room some 25 mins later.
OMG, it was FANTASTIC. And...
it was not over. She pulled
out the needles (which, by
the way, I never felt them
going in). I was asked to turn
over and she ran her hands
alongside both sides of my
spine applying a bit of pressure
and more needles went in on
my back, at the base of my
neck, behind my ears and in
my cranium. My body was covered
with the light sheet again
and back into my cocoon. Trust
me, I was in NO hurry to get
out of that place, I could
have spent the whole afternoon
there. My mind drifted back
to LALA land, peace, serenity
enveloping my whole body,
quieting my mind. I lay there
savoring every second in a
dreamlike state until she came
back (too soon) to remove and
discard the needles. She then
rubbed my back with her hands
using a rocking motion to bring
me back to this world, my scalp
was stimulated too and I knew
that this little slice of
heaven that I had just experienced
had come to an end. I don't
know if any of you have had
an acupuncture treatment,
it is WELL worth every little
prick of a needle. I highly
recommend it. Besides, you
do not want to die stupid
(as we say in french). I left
her place floating on a cloud
and marveling at what I had
just experienced. I had a tentative
plan of attending a talk but
instead changed my mind and
drove home. After checking
my e-mail, I picked up a book
on meditation and the next
thing I know, I was in a deep
sleep, as if sedated. At one
point, I felt Natasya kissing
my cheeks and caressing my
hair, hearing her sweet little
voice saying "You
feel so warm grandmere".
In fact, her cool hands were
a contrast to this perfectly
delicious warmth of my whole
body. I must have slept for
at least 2 hours. I had a bite
to eat and this lengthy nap
did not prevent me from sleeping
like a baby all night long.
In fact, I woke up past 7 this am (I am usually up between
5 and 6) totally refreshed,
rejuvenated and so peaceful. What a deal!! When I think
that people take drugs (with
horrible side effects), they
should invest in acupuncture. G. B., Hemet, CA
Although I
had met Britta several years
ago, it wasn’t
until about a year ago that
I had the courage to try acupuncture.
I am now a true believer and
fully embrace Britta’s
philosophy: "before
using drugs, let’s
try to get the body to mend
itself:. She has helped me
with allergies, sleeping problems,
sugar cravings and hot flashes. Recently she noticed my hair
was thinning and has treated
that with some success. My
hair is noticeably thicker
in the front.Britta has also
helped my daughter with menstrual
problems, knee pain and was
able to cure an acid reflux
problem she had, thus getting
her off the drug Nexium. Recently
I decided to try the acupuncture
facelift. My face doesn’t
look drastically different,
just more refreshed and vibrant.
My eyes are more open, the
frown line is all but gone,
and the deep wrinkles around
my mouth are less deep. I then
decided to try a neck lift.
My neck certainly looks smoother.I
feel so fortunate to have discovered
acupuncture and very privileged
to know Britta.

I
began receiving acupuncture
from Britta about 6 months
ago for my menstrual cycle.
She was very easy to talk to,
and friendly. Before I had
my first treatment I was a
bit scared, but very soon after
I was fine, because of how
sweet and calm Britta is. I
was afraid that the needles
would be painful, but they
ended up not being painful
at all. About a month or two
later, my menstrual cycle was
lighter, with a lot less severe
cramping. I am currently receiving
acupuncture treatment from
Britta to get rid of acne.
I would definitely recommend
Britta to anybody because of
how much of a soothing atmosphere
she has, and also because of
how successful the acupuncture
is.

Who knew that when my son was diagnosed with a seizure disorder December of 2000, that we would through ups and downs end up with acupuncture to help the process in the aid of not only to help clear his head and thoughts, but to decrease the amount of seizures he has had. When we first came to Britta 4 months ago, my son was having many seizures in a weeks time. We never dreamed it could be possible to see many days pass without having seizures. We had been through so much in the last several years: high doses of medicines, toxic levels and hospital stays. When we first started to see Britta, 25- 30 seizures per month would be very common. After a few weeks we were seeing his head clear and fewer seizures. In these past couple of months we have seen more consecutive days without seizures than we had never seen before, and as I write this my son is in his 15th day seizure free and no seizures in sight! We are talking about a plan of action to reduce his medicines. This is the huge break through we have been hoping for. Through Britta's kind and gentle approach with my son, we have seen so much accomplished in only 4 months time. We will continue to see her, with I'm sure more success in the future. Britta is a truly compassionate and wonderful person and I would tell anyone to give acupuncture a try, it really works!!! Thanks to Britta and acupuncture my son is getting his life back!
