Debra T. - Springfield

I have been treated by acupuncturist Yao Hao for over four years and I most highly recommend him as an outstanding professional in his field.  I have Fibromyalgia and I used to take daily prescription pain meds (Vioxx!) until I started seeing Mr. Hao. Currently, I take Tylenol maybe once every other month: a huge improvement.  He also treats me for Irritable Bowel Syndrome and has helped me more than any medication.  My Plantar Fasciitis was so bad that I had difficulty walking and was told by my family physician that I would need cortisone shots.  Instead, I went to Yao Hao and my PF is GONE without any shots.  In addition, I have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and was referred by my family doctor to a surgeon.  Before agreeing to surgery, Mr. Hao treated me and the surgeon said I didn't need surgery anymore.  Mr. Hao has helped my sinus pain and my osteoarthritis pain. Both my health and quality of life have improved immeasurably since I started seeing Yao Hao.  I have referred several people to him and they have all been highly satisfied.  In my opinion, Mr. Yao D. Hao is nothing short of amazing!

Mr. Yao D. Hao gave me my life back after two surgeries, a cervical spinal fusion and a laminectomy, left me unable to drive and impaired my household manual tasking functions. I have been a patient and friend of Mr. Hao for five and a half years. Mr. Hao is an extraordinary healer with miracle hands.  Acupuncture was the solution for my post-surgery recovery.

I was suffering from leg pain (quadriceps) for 4 years as a result of my yoga exercise trauma. Treatments which were offered by a a physiotherapist, chiropractor, pain management specialist, massage therapists, another acupuncturist, Chinese cupping massage specialist, acupressure, laser and ultrasound treatment, myostimulation, prolactomy did not work. Acupuncturist Yao Hao was able to correctly diagnose the root of the problem as a neurological problem, resulting in muscle pain. This is a credit to his excellent training in China, his clinical experience and diagnostic gift of an excellent clinician. This diagnosis was later confirmed by a clinical professor of neurology and another physiotherapist. I combined acupuncture treatment by Yao Hao with physiotherapy, which resulted in much awaited pain relief. As my trauma was old, my treatment would take time and I still continue to attend Mr Hao's sessions of acupuncture. I would recommend Mr Hao to anyone with chronic pain, sport or dance trauma, many neurological problems, etc. And as everyone knows, acupuncture has no side effects, hence it is a very safe treatment, which was used for more than a thousand years".

Acupuncturist Yao Hao has been treating my mother's rheumatoid arthritis with excellent results... I explained my ongoing problem with back pain due to a car accident 20 years ago. He alleviated 70% of my pain on the first visit!
