I decided to have acupuncture as a last resort before taking anti anxiety medication as I prefer the natural way if possible. I was a little skeptic that it wouldn’t work but thought I had nothing to lose! I suffered from mild anxiety and after 6 treatments it had practically disappeared. I would recommend Vitalis as he has saved me from 6 months of anti anxiety medication.

Just before I came to this country two years ago, I saw a Spine Specialist in England, who kindly told me after him seeing my results from a MRI that I would require the fusing of my lower spine. This would put me out of action for sometime and would cause me quite considerable discomfort for sometime. He did add though that I was rather young to have this done and so I decided to try to put up with the agonising pain.

Since arriving in New Zealand, I have at time been at my wit’s end with the pain, which has resulted in me taking strong pain killers, which I am quite anti to do so. About two months ago things got really bad, where I was finding it very difficult even to walk a few metres and the continuing agony was making my life hell and that takes some doing, co’s I have a high pain threshold barrier and I just didn’t know what I was going to do apart from give in and have an operation.

I’ve always thought acupuncture was a load of rubbish, after my husband once had it done to stop him smoking, but to no avail, but I had got to a stage where I would give anything a go. Then I found Vitalis. I felt significant relief right after the first treatment. And now I feel no pain. The treatment that he has given me and continues to give me is absolutely marvelous, whereas life is now enjoyable again and I am sure I will be able to put off an operation for sometime to come, plus I have a wonderful nap each treatment time.

Vitalis has a lovely nature about himself and I would recommend his practice to anyone, he’s doing a marvelous job.

Thank you so much Vitalis.

Kind Regards Jill Ireland.

Following a snowboarding accident I started to suffer from severe migraines and neck pain. At times the neck was hurting so much, it was keeping me awake at night. I was suffering from debilitating migraines at least twice a month.

In the past 2 years I saw a sports and musculoskeletal medicine specialist and 3 different physiotherapists. These treatments didn’t leave a mark on my almost daily neck pain and headaches.

I love exercise. I enjoy swimming, pilates, running, gym and box-aerobics. But the pain often used to get worse during and after exercise.

I was so frustrated by lack of any progress, when one of my colleagues recommended that I should see Dr Vitalis.

I’m enjoying life so much more now. I said good-bye to all the painkillers. After suffering for such a long time, it feels so great to be pain free! I can concentrate at work again, I enjoy my exercise so much more, and overall I’m much more balanced and happy.

Before I started the treatment with Dr Vitalis I had suffered severe hay fever symptoms including itchy watery eyes, runny nose. I had these symptoms 24/7. I felt quite awkward at times, as it looked as if I was crying and upset. This made me feel very self conscious.
I was also sick of taking antihistamines. I’ve read somewhere that acupuncture can help.

The treatment with Dr Vitalis has made a huge difference. The symptoms are all but gone. I can now talk to people without them thinking that I have been crying. Watching TV is a lot more pleasant now, that the usual haze is gone.

I’d recommend Dr Vitalis to anyone suffering with hay fever. Relaxing and caring environment is a bonus!

Before I came to see Dr. Vitalis, I was overworked and felt a need for a holiday… I was so tired, I was having problems maintaining focus on my research.

After my first session, I felt really well rested and much calmer. I felt more energetic and my ability to concentrate improved tremendously. By about the fourth week of treatment, I felt a fundamental shift within myself, and the changes are now a constant.

I would recommend Dr. Vitalis to anyone who needs to perform under pressure.
