Healing Stories

My doctor recommended medications due to high sugars and elevated liver enzymes. Instead I chose to receive treatments from Shelley Teal over the span of 2 months. As a result my blood sugar dropped and I lost weight. Several months later after follow-up bloodwork I received a call from my doctor that she wanted to see me. 

 Well the dr had great news for me!!  My test results are awesome!!  Everything is down!  Not just sugar cholesterol too and liver enzyme as well!  the dr was even shocked at the results!  And without meds too! . She said whatever you’re doing keep it up. And she doesn’t want me to check my blood sugar at home anymore  I also lost 3 more lbs for a total of 21lbs now  and my blood pressure was awesome too!  So it’s working!!  .

I am a horrible patient. I dislike pills and procedures. I have trust issues with modern medicine. Why? I cannot even justify it. I have an amazing doctor and have no horror stories to share. But as I get older, I am more aware that the day may come where I will need medical intervention of some sort. Been pretty lucky to date (touch wood).

That said, I met Shelley about two years ago. I had a fall and was suffering from tennis elbow and was going through Physio with no real results. A colleague had mentioned auricular acupuncture and knew of a lady who had achieved amazing results with her clients. This was more my speed…I jumped at the chance to participate in anything that does not equate to modern medicine. I contacted her right away for an initial appointment.

Our first meeting was life changing for me and an affirmation that we can heal ourselves easier than we think. Shelley was incredibly welcoming and I felt instantly that I had known her forever. She was warm and open and spoke of her experiences which had me excited for my results.

The appointment addressed so much more than the tennis elbow issue. She addressed everything…I felt cleansed. But the moment that literally brought me to tears was when she placed a needle in my ear and asked me to extend my arm…it had been 4-6 weeks since I was able to without extreme pain. And yet, I did it without any at all. I was sold and have been sold ever since. I do not get to see Shelley as much as I would like to but can attest that every single appointment I have had has addressed my issue and so much more. I refer her to anyone and everyone I talk to. I even sent my skeptical husband along and he too was impressed.

So please give yourself a gift, regardless if you have any specific issues. Preventive therapy is best after all. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you Shelley for sharing your gift(s) with us, friendship and healing.

Herniated Disc

“About eight years ago, I found out that I had 2 herniated discs. I decided to try Chinese Acupuncture from Shelley Teal. At my first treatment, I was in a lot of pain. After one initial treatment with Shelley, I was instantly better. After 2 more treatments, I was back to 100 percent. I would highly recommend this treatment. Shelley was fantastic.”

Frozen Shoulder

“I had been going for physio every week regarding my arm for almost two months, without experiencing any change. My arm would not lift up. I started searching for another solution. My hairdresser suggested I go see Shelley Teal. She told me Shelley was a Dr. of Chinese medicine and that is who could fix my arm. I called and booked an appointment with Shelley and after the first treatment my arm lifted up to 85% of its full range. After the second treatment it was back to normal with full range. I could have saved a lot of money, pain and time had I gone to her first. Shelley is great to work with…calm, caring and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend that if anyone is having this type of issue, call Shelley!”

Whiplash

“I was in a car accident that caused me to have whip lash. I was lost. I was in the worst pain of my life. I wasn’t sure which way to turn for treatment and had tried multiple forms of treatment; physio, osteopathic, and massage. I had to take time off of work and was beginning to feel my life slipping away. I had known Shelley was practicing acupuncture but I didn’t know much about it. I decided to contact her and began to see her on a regular basis for treatments. I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am for Shelley and her incredible talent to heal my whiplash – she gave me the chance to regain control over the life that I saw slipping away. Shelley’s presence, non-judgemental listening and overall empathy for her patients are additional qualities that other practitioners do not always exude. Her relational practice along with her vast knowledge, skills and abilities are truly the reason for my recovery from this injury.

Since this time I have continued to seek treatment for a number of other injuries and have sought much comfort in times of stress and anxiety. I often leave thinking to myself that there is a magic to what Shelley Teal does during the hours of treatment. I highly recommend Shelley and it is a magic you need to experience with your own eyes – which I did – the day before my wedding when I had an eye infection so red that my wedding would have been ruined. Luckily Shelley was able to treat the infection and I was in complete shock and new belief as I watched the waves cross my eye and my Maid of Honour was it turn from red to pink to clear within minutes.”

Lung Infection

The first visit I made to Shelley was to seek treatment for a recurring lung infection. Not only did she cure my lung infection, but she decreased the dampness in my body and as a result I haven’t had a lung infection since!

Broken Arm/Shingles

When I broke my arm and developed shingles in the same week, Shelley treated my shingles with acupuncture and aromatherapy and I believe this prevented me from experiencing the nerve pain often associated with shingles. She has also treated me for asthma, allergies, and back and neck pain. Most people call their GP seeking medical advice – I call Shelley first as I prefer to be treated with natural and alternative therapies instead of pumping my system full of prescription drugs.
I continue to refer family, friends and clients to Shelley as the reports I received from those she has treated have been nothing but positive and in a lot of cases, life changing.
