Testimonials

I have lived in pain for the past seven years and at times it was unbearable. Three years ago, at age 18, I was diagnosed with stage four endometriosis. Each monthly cycle required me to miss a week of work. On the advice of my physician, I tried over eight different kinds of birth control pills. None of them worked for any length of time. By age nineteen, I had laparoscopic surgery to remove the cells that had gone astray. However, the pain continued. Tired and frustrated, I quit taking birth control pills. I started seeing Lynn a few weeks later. She placed me on a regimen of vitamins, herbs and regular acupuncture treatments. It took about two months before I started seeing improvements. I am in my sixth month of treatment and I have never felt better. I have returned to college to pursue my career as a dancer, now I can dance and work with ease. I’ve found new strength in her natural healing methods.

I have been suffering from Irritable Bowel (IBS) and Restless Leg Syndrome for 2 years. My medical doctor gave me prescription medications, with no improvement. I met Lynn and shared all my aliments with her in May of 2005. We spent a lot of time discussing my health history, life style and diet. She suggested I make changes to my diet. To my shock, she was right on it! With in 3 months, I’ve noticed a significant change in the way I feel. My IBS symptoms are gone, my restless legs have improved and I have more energy.

Dear Lynn,

I have been drawn to the idea of smoking a few times, but remarkably, To Smoke, has just remained in the form of a thought. The To Smoke thought, has only lasted for a brief and simple moment. Those moments have certainly diminished now, as it has been over a month since my first acupuncture treatment at your office in New London, CT. That day, I had my last cigarette before my appointment with you. Up until that point, smoking had been a part of my life for over 30 years!

I am glad that you were able to see me again that first week (two days) later for a 2nd treatment. I also feel that my third (and last) acupuncture that you gave me approximately 10 days after the 2nd treatment, was just right. I have not felt the need for another treatment to date. Yet, it is good to know that you are responsive to more treatments (if I feel the need) in the future.

So, I remain Smoke Free! I appreciate your wonderful work that you’ve done for me. I do love the fact that you gave me such a strong assist to quit smoking. By doing your acupuncture on me, I feel as if my (once very powerful) urge to smoke, just dissolved away in thin air.

Thanks again for your care and skill.

Sincerely,

Susan

Let me begin by saying that I was VERY skeptical about acupuncture and tried it only as a last resort to prevent another surgery.
I began having heavy menstrual bleeding about 3 years ago and subsequently diagnosed with uterine fibroids. Eventually, the tumors grew so large they had to be removed. My doctor assured me the myomectomy would regulate my cycle and return my flow to normal. After surgery, things went from bad to worse. I endured 8 months of  pain, nausea, abnormal menstrual cycles and heavy bleeding. I became anemic, exhausted, and for the first time in my life, I missed work every month.

My family and social life suffered. Because I was fearful of bleeding through my clothes, I gave up opportunities to stay close to home. I tried everything my doctor suggested including synthetic hormones. As a last resort my doctor suggested a full hysterectomy.  Remembering the acupuncture demonstration I had seen while on a cruise, I decided to give it a try.

Much to my surprise,  I experienced some relief after the first treatment. After following Lynn’s recommendations for 3 months, my cycle has returned to normal and I’m living life as before. I’m no longer a skeptic but a believer!

I came to Lynn Borzillo after being on anti-depressants for fourteen years. Over the years, I came to rely on multiple medications for my medical conditions. The medications caused many unwanted side effects, insomnia, restless legs, and a one-hundred pound weight gain.

Lynn placed me on supplements to target my depression and I received weekly acupuncture treatments. Just after a few acupuncture sessions, I experienced a definite increase in my sense of well-being, a boost in energy, and my back pain diminished.

It’s been almost three months since I’ve taken any medications (prescription or over-the-counter) and I feel better now than I have in fourteen years.

I wake up feeling happy, refreshed and I’m losing weight. I have a healthy future to look forward to.

Lynn changed my life for the better, and for that, I am deeply grateful.
