The Full Story

"My feet feel like they're on fire."

"Each step feels like there are small stones and rocks stabbing my feet and legs ."

"I live in constant fear that I'll fall."

"I can't sleep, my hands and feet tingle all night."

​

What do all these people have in common? They suffer from peripheral neuropathy. An estimated 20 million people in the United States have peripheral neuropathy, but the actual number may be significantly higher due to frequent misdiagnosis caused by its wide range of symptoms.

​

Peripheral Neuropathy is the pain, discomfort, and numbness caused by nerve damage of the peripheral nervous system. Many of the patients who seek treatments at 7 Sages Acupuncture and Herbs found daily tasks like opening doors and using the bathroom were overwhelmingly painful.

 

Patients like Jacky M. from Orange, CA often ask questions like: "How can you live for the next 20 to 30 years when you don't even want to get out of bed to do simple things?"

​

Before coming to us for help, Jacky was experiencing the burning, numbness, tingling, and sharp pains that those suffering from neuropathy often describe. "The way I would  describe it,  it's equivalent to walking on broken glass." Having anything touching her feet was excruciating, especially at night which makes it very difficult for her to get a good rest.

​

Sadly, Jacky's story is common among those suffering from Peripheral Neuropathy.

​

If you are facing the same disheartening prognosis then you're likely not engaging in many activities that bring you joy in life. You may have difficulty walking, shopping, or doing any activity for more than 30 minutes because of the pain. Or perhaps you're struggling with your balance fearing that you might fall. Your doctor might have told you to "just live with the pain" or "it comes with old age" and you're taking medications that aren't working or have uncomfortable side effects.

​

Fortunately, Jacky found us, here at 7 Sages Acupuncture and Herbs, and the work we do to help those suffering from Peripheral Neuropathy without invasive surgeries or medications and decided to give us a call.

​

Our acupuncturist, Kim Le-Nguyen, L.Ac, uses a time test science of Acupuncture and technology originally developed by NASA to assists in increasing blood flow and expediting recovery and healing to treat this debilitating disease.

​

"Now when I go to bed at night I don't have those shooting pains. I don't have that burning sensation. I don't have pain coming up my legs. Jacky enthusiastically describes life after recieving Kim's treatments. "I can really enjoy life again!"

​​

Jacky can now help out her family by watching her grandchildren and can do many activities that she wasn't able to before, like walking in the neighborhood. She no longer feels confined to her sofa all day.

​

"It's life-altering. As far as I'm concerned, Kim saved my life!"

​

Kim specialized in this cutting-edge treatment protocol in order to better serve her community. Specializing in chronic pain cases, specifically those that have been deemed "hopeless" or "untreatable", she is consistently generating unparalleled results. What was once a missing link in healthcare is now easily accessible to the residents of Orange County.

​

If you are sick and tired of being in pain or you have passed on too many precious life events because of pain, it's time to call us and our staff at 7 Sages Acupuncture and Herbs.

Why our natural peripheral neuropathy treatment works so well:

Fertility Cases & Success Stories

Patient Background: A 30-week pregnant patient was diagnosed with partial placenta previa. Her OBGYN advised that if the condition did not resolve within four weeks, she would need to deliver via C-section.

Total Sessions: 8 acupuncture treatments Frequency: Twice per week On September 3, 2020, the patient reported that her OBGYN had confirmed complete resolution of her placenta previa. As a result, she was cleared for a natural, vaginal delivery. This case highlights how acupuncture may support optimal pregnancy outcomes, providing expectant mothers with more options for a smoother and safer birth experience.
