Chronic Back & Knee Pain

"Acupuncture has been a saving grace for me!"

"I have dealt with lower back pain and knee pain for at least 15 years. I've had two surgeries to address both. Although the surgeries both helped, I found that physical therapy alone did not help in the long term. Acupuncture has been a saving grace for me!

 

My pain and discomfort levels have plummeted, and stay away when I keep up with weekly acupuncture sessions. There is a reason that acupuncture has been around

for thousands of years...it's because it works!"

Hormonal Support

"I came to Firefly Acupuncture with
a hormone imbalance that I'd
had for twenty years.
I experienced improvement from the beginning and three months later have very minor if any symptoms.
I also have experienced tremendous relief from chronic sinus issues."

Pain Relief

"After seeking relief for over 2 years via traditional means for my
Plantar Fasciitis, with little to no improvement, I decided to give acupuncture a try. While it is not
an instant cure, after a couple
of months, I was pain-free.


I could actually get out of bed in the morning without the stabbing feeling
I had become too accustomed to.
I sometimes have mild flare-ups,

which can be resolved
with a few visits. 


 I've also encouraged my kids with Athletic injuries to come, and we generally see faster healing and a quick decrease in pain and discomfort."

Fertility & Postpartum Support

"I went to Firefly Acupuncture for infertility. My husband and
I failed three previous cycles of
IVF and other interventions
over the course of two years.
I was exhausted, sad,
and frustrated!
I made an appointment with
Rachal and within 3 months
I was pregnant. We were
amazed and so very happy!
 
Rachal helped us to make our
family and lives complete,
and we will be forever grateful!
I continued acupuncture throughout my pregnancy and also postpartum. Wonderful experience and miraculous outcome!"

Lyme Disease & Chronic Complex Conditions

"Rachal Lohr-Dean is an amazing acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner!  

I have had food sensitivities and intestinal problems ever since I came down with a severe case of mononucleosis when I was sixteen (I am now 32 yrs old). In addition, I was recently diagnosed with Lyme disease and due to this condition I was having constant joint and back pain.  

When I went to Rachal for the first time, my low back was inflamed to the point that I couldn't walk. After my first two acupuncture sessions, my back inflammation totally subsided. Rachal proceeded to prescribe me a customized formula of Chinese herbs. These herbs have been a miracle!!! The herbs have healed my digestive system and cured me of my chronic constipation. Within a month and a half of taking the herbs, I lost 12 pounds without exercise! Also, because of both the acupuncture sessions and the herbs, my energy has dramatically improved and my severe premenstrual symptoms (stabbing cramps, feverishness, painfully swollen breasts) have been greatly reduced.

 

Rachal explained to me that the inflammation in my body from my ailments was causing me to gain weight and retain it. The herbs addressed the root cause of the inflammation and then the weight came off like water and stayed off. Likewise, the herbs have alleviated my chronic joint and low back pain."

Pain Relief

"When you treated me two
weeks ago, I was experiencing swelling at the surgical site
where I had abdominal surgery
two years ago, this swelling has drastically diminished.

 
You also treated my sacrum,
which was bruised from a
riding accident; I am now
running without pain!"

M.L., Reston VA

Chronic Pain Relief

"I received two recommendations from medical professionals to visit Rachal. Initially, I discounted the notion. I do not like needles and
was wary. However, my ailments continued, and I decided
why not 
try it.

Best decision I have made in
a long time. Rachal talked me
through the process, made sure
I was at ease, and before I knew
it I was needled and wondering
what I was worried about.

In my first session, I dozed off
3 times. Talk about relaxing.
My health has improved, and I am now a regular patient.


I would highly recommend Rachal!"

Emotional Support & Insomnia

"I’ve been on antidepressants for three years, and started
having anxiety attacks and
always had trouble sleeping.


Since I started acupuncture and
herbs six months ago, 
I’ve
stopped taking anti-depressants (within 2 months), don’t have
anxiety attacks and sleep much
more soundly and even through
the night sometimes, which is unheard of for me.


Chinese medicine and all of its
fun accoutrements have helped
with my back, neck, shoulder,
and knee pain, too. I prefer this
type of treatment because it
actually treats the root of my problems and allows my body
to naturally heal itself, which
makes a lot more sense to me
than taking a bunch of prescriptions with unpalatable side effects." 

Gastrointestinal Conditions

"After years of G.I. pain and upset, trying to find relief, I started acupuncture therapy at Firefly. Rachal has been very caring and listened to all complaints and changes from the start.

She was the third therapist I went to seeking relief, and the first one to make

a real difference for my condition.

The combination of acupuncture and herbal therapy, I believe, made a huge difference!

I would recommend Firefly to anyone looking for therapy."
