I was diagnosed with IBS 6 years ago. Since then, I've experienced every textbook symptom from frequent and unpredictable trips to the bathroom to abdominal pain and bloating. Fed up with doctors, who proved unable to reduce my symptoms and who dismissed my complaints of pain, I turned to sources of complementary medicine for relief. Among them, I was lucky to try acupuncture with Gerry Harrington. Gerry sympathetically listened to my entire health history and discussed how he planned to tailor treatments to manage my IBS. After each week of treatment with Gerry, I noticed gradual improvements in my health. Within two months, I found myself able to safely eat certain foods that would have previously started an IBS attack. For the first time since my diagnosis, I felt in charge of my body. Thank you so much to Gerry for these amazing, positive changes in my health!
