Myriad Conditions
Getting through these tough times and walking away free of pain would not have been possible without Helen Law’s ability and knowledge of the human body. I highly recommend her to anyone who is experiencing any kind of physical discomfort or illness. You definitely won’t regret it.
Chronic Neck Pain
The pain that I experienced before I met you had become unbearable. I had been to see numerous doctors in search of treatment for my chronic neck pain. The diagnosis was usually different and they were never able to determine the cause, but rather just sent me to see someone else.
Severe Pain Spreading Through Legs
I have been to chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists and other acupuncturists, but I have had only occasional temporary relief. Today, my acupuncturist, Helen Law, worked on relieving tension in my muscles, in my back and hip by gently manipulating my muscles, and within two minutes, my pain was gone.
Back Spasms
I was in excruciating pain and felt I had to void my bladder every ten minutes. When we arrived in Princeton, my wife suggested that I go the emergency room. I thought of Dr. Law instead and called her office.
Multiple Joint Pain From Exercise
When I first came to see you, I was truly a mess. Every large joint was extremely painful, but it was not really a joint problem, but a tendon problem. I had always been an active and dedicated exerciser but have suffered for many years with “overuse” injuries. I used to walk for miles, work out on an exercise bike for 1-1/2 hours a day and do weight work three times a week.
Mystery Pain In Leg
I am so excited to tell about my “pain story”. My pain over 8 years had been very painful. It was from my knee down to the tip of my toes! The many doctors that I went to said to rest and keep your legs elevated. All tests were done but nothing could be pin pointed.
Severe Knee Pain
I came to Helen Law because of severe knee pain which was preventing me from enjoying my favorite activities. X-ray had revealed mild arthritis, but it didn’t feel mild to me.
Foot Pain, Unable To Walk
I initially went to Helen for pain in my left foot on the lateral border. In March, I travelled to Palm Springs and I could not walk around the block. After four months of treatment I was able to walk on a tour for two weeks.
Crippling Foot Pain
I have had foot pain from the heel to the middle of my foot for a year. I’ve been to podiatrists and numerous doctors and they were not able to help relieve my pain with orthotics, massage or physical therapy. The pain was so excruciating that I was unable to walk for a year and I thought that I would be crippled for the rest of my life.
Arthritis Pain In The Leg
Since I was pregnant with my first daughter in 1962, I have had intermittent but frequent leg cramps. Sometimes these were so extreme that I would awaken at night crying out in pain. After several visits with Helen Law, who used various treatment modalities, I have had no leg cramps for more than two weeks.
Severe Back Pain
Helen Law was recommended to me by a good friend, as the most competent and effective help around Princeton in case of pain in the back. I suffered enormously from such pain caused by a problem with a spinal disc, and I really needed relief, promptly.
Hip, Neck, Shoulder Pain
I went to Dr. Law with neck, shoulder and sciatic nerve (left hip) pain. I could not play sports, move quickly or enjoy life at its fullest for over an entire year. Dr. Law treated my neck, shoulder and sciatic nerve problems with acupuncture. Eight weeks later I could resume pilates exercises without pain.
Herniated Lumbar Discs
Thirteen years ago, I herniated three lumbar discs in a car accident. Since my injury I have suffered from left and right leg radiating pain in addition to generalized lower back pain. I treated my symptoms for 13 years with more than 12 epidural injections and varied time periods of anti-inflammatories and muscle relaxers.
Neck And Shoulder Pain
I have struggled with a calcified knot as well as neck and shoulder pain for many years. I remember it would throb I played high school sports 12 years ago. As I got older it seemed to get worse, especially with stress.
Sciatic Syndrome
After the birth of my first child I experienced severe pain during the first attack of a sciatic syndrome. Months after the birth of my second child two years later, my hips and pelvis would not stabilize and I variously experienced pain from my neck to my knees that interfered with my ability to care for my baby.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) Disease
I was diagnosed with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease when I was 20 years old. CMT is one of the most common inherited neurological disorders, affecting both motor and sensory peripheral nerves, resulting muscles to contract.
Sciatic Nerve Pain
During the early summer of 2010 I experienced severe and disabling sciatic nerve pain in my left leg caused by bulging disks in the L4/L5 area and scar tissue from a previous surgery. I could not stand, walk or even sit in a chair – I was bedridden.
Arthritis In The Hands
At the prompting of a neighbor who had been successfully treated by a Chinese acupuncturist for nerve discomfort in her feet, I decided to try acupuncture treatment for arthritic problems in my hands. I also am experiencing a balancing difficulty that was thought to be aggravated by an essential tremor that I have lived with, and medicated, for twenty years.
