At 87, my father, Bob McConell, needed a hip replacement operation. He was taking Darvocet four times a day to handle the excruciating pain. During a consultation, Dad was instructed to discontinue his medication for 14 days before the operation. We went to Robert about a month beforehand. After his first acupuncture treatment, Dad only needed one Darvocet on four occasions during the following week. After a second appointment, Dad only took one Darvocet for the entire week. And in the final week before surgery, Dad didn't need any pain medication at all. After the operation, Dad was off his pain medication within a couple of days, and he hasn't needed anything since. It is now a year later, and my Dad's new hip is working well and he walks without any pain. I can't thank Robert enough for what he’s done for my father. |
