Motor Function Disorder
By Brenda Scholik
(Post Polio)
I had polio at age four and now suffer from Post Polio Syndrome, which basically means that my weakened muscles from Polio are now wearing out. This is a painful condition with various muscle groups hurting most of the time. If I had not found acupuncture, I don’t know what I would have done. I had tried physical therapy, used a tens unit, and took strong pain pills and nothing seemed to help. After just one acupuncture treatment, the tight, sore muscles in my neck and shoulders were loosened up and the pain was gone. I felt like crying because I had finally found some relief. I would highly recommend acupuncture for muscle pain and I would highly recommend Dr. GAO and his wife Jing at New Realm Acupuncture Center. They are both very caring and compassionate people.
