~Tim K.

"Thank you for introducing me to Acupuncture. Though I do a lot of energy work through yoga, I found that Acupuncture is a good combination with yoga for well-being. I find the treatments not only relaxing and renewing, but balancing as well. I appreciate your soothing energy when performing Acupuncture. Thank you for taking that sticky coat off my tongue and recommending a once monthly wellness visit."

Namaste,

"In May of 2006, I had my first anxiety attack. I was prescribed an anti-anxiety medication, by my doctor. I didn’t have any more attacks after that and was hoping this was a one time thing. Two weeks later my world came crashing down around me, due to a very stressful week. After that the anxiety attacks were constant. My doctor prescribed me antidepressants to stop the attacks. I soon learned that my body rejected the medication; I had serious side affects with every antidepressant I tried. I was so sick from the combination of medications and constant anxiety attacks that I stopped doing everything. I could not be by myself, someone always had to be with me. I was no longer able to drive, and go to most places. I became a prisoner in my own body, I feared that I would never get well again. Medical doctors told me there was nothing more they could do for me, and I would just have to figure out a way to accept my illness and learn to live with it. I went to see Ann-Marie after my husband suggested acupuncture. Ann-Marie has saved my life. I have come so far with her help, I am so much better physically and emotionally. I can now stay home by myself and take care of my children, I am also able to drive again. I am not 100% well, but I am on my way to getting my life back. I owe this all to Ann-Marie, she has never once given up on me. She is my hero!!!"

~Kimberly S.

"For many years I could only turn my head to a certain point without having pain in my neck/shoulder area. After one acupuncture treatment from Ann Marie, the pain was gone and it has never returned. She also treated and removed pain in my heels. Thank you Ann-Marie-You are amazing."

~Henrietta Y.

"... Not only did Ann-Marie assist me in my goal of the cessation of smoking, but it also helped me to not gain my weight through the process."

~Caren M.

I had my daughter treated by Ann-Marie for overall health. She was sick much of the time she was at school. Ann-Marie's treatment kept my daughter so much healthier this year. We will be back."

~Denise K.

"Ms Yeager has helped both my husband and I with acupuncture. I experienced a cluster of migraines that significantly decreased after treatment. My husband had a serious fall that affected his neck, arm and back. The treatments given by Ms Yeager gave him range of movement almost immediately and he did not suffer any long range problems."

~Kip K.

"I have had pain in my knees since I was about 12 years of age from running, basketball, ranching, arthritis etc. From the first acupuncture treatment the pain in my knees began to decrease. The “river” sensation running through my leg was very relaxing (Ann-Marie calls is Qi). It has now been five very WONDERFUL months since my knee pain was relieved with acupuncture!!!"

~Mary Lou Z. Age 53

"I have horrible pain every month and this month it just happened to fall on the day I was going in to get acupuncture. About an hour after my session with Ann-Marie, the pain was completely gone, along with the nausea, dizziness, and irritability. Also I have the beginning of carpal tunnel and I noticed less pain for longer periods of time after just 3 sessions, and it continues to get better. Ann-Marie has helped me so much, I can't even describe.

Ann-Marie is very professional and always takes the time to listen and care about your problems and needs. She is very intelligent, and great at what she does. I would highly recommend her to everyone I know- and I do! Thank you Ann-Marie!"

~Chelsea

"I came to “Good Health Acupuncture” as a vital link to managing chronic back pain, fatigue and insomnia. I was searching every avenue to be proactive for my health. Western medicine had left me with a medicine cabinet full of pills and no significant improvement. I began my journey with an alternative M.D. who manages chronic medical problems such as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and IBS. The whole philosophy is to support the body’s ability to heal or improve itself. I also incorporated chiropractics and massage therapy. My next step in healing was acupuncture. In four short weeks my back pain became very manageable. I have learned to listen to my body instead of ignoring the obvious signs that I am pushing too hard. I feel less internal tension. As Ann-Marie put it, “you have the gas petal and the brake on at the same time.” I have found the clinic to be a place that gives back to my body what the day takes away from my health and spirit. I am very grateful for Ann-Marie’s expertise as a gifted acupuncturist."

~Eileen S.

"My acupuncture sessions with Ann-Marie began in August 2005. I have osteo-arthritis in my hands and the pain and stiffness had progressively worsened. We started with a weekly session and by the third visit the pain and stiffness had lessened and continues to decrease with her therapy.

Ann-Marie incorporated additional treatments with her acupuncture to find the most effective plan for my personal needs. I see her once a month now for maintenance, which includes a session to discuss any other arthritis issues or concerns I have about my health.

Besides acupuncture, Ann-Marie focuses on the client's whole health with vitamin therapy and herbal medications. I feel very fortunate to be one of her clients and I look forward to continued good health under her expertise and care.

Thank You Ann-Marie!"


~Christie


"I had been experiencing ever worsening facial blushing that caused me to become depressed and not desiring to be in public. I went to a family doctor and dermatologist, both diagnosed me with Rosacea. I was prescribed various medications that caused adverse side-effects and did not relieve my blushing. I had also been experiencing increased sweaty palms. After only a few visits with Ann-Marie, I began to notice a significant decrease in my facial blushing and an almost complete absence of sweaty palms. I have found Ann-Marie to be very professional, knowledgeable, and extremely caring of my physical and mental health. Ann-Marie, thank you so much for helping me get back to my old self, happy and outgoing!"

~Greg


"My son, Ian, was well for only 2 of the first 13 months of his life. The 2 months consisted of scattered days here and there. He suffered from a constant runny nose, cough, eczema and was extremely irritable.

We met with Ann-Marie 3 times a week for a month. His symptoms cleared and his happy personality started to shine through. He went from difficult and high maintenance to easy going, fun and smiley. Ian soon recognized Ann-Marie, was happy to see her, sat still, was totally relaxed and watched her every move.

Ann-Marie is very calming, engaging and playful, letting Ian determine how and when things happened, never forcing anything, and attentive to his reactions.

Ann-Marie introduced me to my son – the real him!"

~Laura L.


“My son Garold - age 6 - has a few different issues that Ms. Yeager addressed through treatment. The primary issues being his bed-wetting and nightmares/fears. Needless to say, I was worried he'd be too fearful to let her treat him at all. Not only did he let her, but he loved it! Ann-Marie was just fantastic with my son, making him feel at ease and part of the process. After just a couple treatments, we noticed a marked improvement in his nightmares and fears, as well as his night-wetting. Ms. Yeager is very skilled at her medicine...and in dealing with kids - a vital combination that's hard to find!”

~Julianne S.


“I have two wonderful children that have both benefited from Ann-Marie’s treatment. Our daughter, Jackie, frequently had sleep issues. When our son was born she took on the role of second mommy and decided to join me in my night adventures to care for him. She didn’t ever want to go to sleep and would wake up several times a night. Jackie also stopped napping at around twenty months. I visited with Ann-Marie about all of this, so she came over to treat Jackie.

Ann-Marie has a wonderful way with kids. Jackie took to her instantly and was literally jumping into her arms and eagerly awaiting the next tool. Her favorite was the moxa. Jackie kept asking for more tap, tap, tap and moxa. Ann-Marie came over about three o’clock and left after twenty minutes. I was in awe of the whole process. Jackie usually acts timid when she is around new people and Ann-Marie was an instant friend! When Ann-Marie left, I decided to read to Jackie. She sat in my lap and was asleep within five minutes! I was amazed – this has never happened! Ann-Marie has treated Jackie a few more times and her sleep has definitely regulated! Thank you Ann-Marie!”

“A few months ago I was in an accident where I fell off my bike and broke my leg. I was told that I would have about a two month recovery period. I heard from a friend that acupuncture would help, not only reduce the swelling, but the pain as well. I heard about Ann-Marie and decided to try it out. At the first appointment she was very kind. She made me feel very comfortable. After the first treatment I noticed a dramatic difference in the swelling, pain, and even the amount of movement in my ankle. This was about a month into the recovery period and I felt as though I would be able to walk in no time. Thank you so much for everything Ann-Marie.”

~Travis D.


“I had been experiencing wandering pain and numbness in both hands for a few days. Because the symptoms were so inconsistent, my doctor told me to wait 4-6 weeks to see if it would improve. Shortly after, I had 5 days of terrible discomfort and lack of movement and was unable to function as a mother to my 3 young boys. I couldn’t wait another 3-5 weeks. I went to see Ann-Marie and had no pain for a week. The pain eventually returned, but after another visit, I haven’t had it since!

I also suffered from tendonitis in my knee. I had been off my bike for two weeks. Ann-Marie worked on my knee when it was at its worst. I fully expected to get off the table and have the same pressure, stiffness and soreness I had been experiencing for the past 5 weeks. When I put my foot on the ground I couldn’t believe the difference. My knee felt 75% better and the next day, even better. I stayed off my bike and returned to Ann-Marie a week later and am now symptom free. I am cycling again and I’m certain that the mix of rest and acupuncture got me back on my bike much sooner than rest alone. Thanks Ann-Marie! You Rock!”

“Our grandson, for the first 5 years of his life, was a healthy little boy. Before entering kindergarten, he received the required immunizations and we suspected was immunized twice for chicken pox. Immediately after the immunizations he suffered from a fever and a headache, neither of which he had ever had before. Since then he has suffered from numerous problems; feeling overheated or chilled, stomachache, nausea and vomiting, frequent colds and flu.

Ann-Marie started treating Braydon and could always dispel the illness. Over a period of time, our grandson has responded to her treatments and now we’re to the point where his headaches and stomachaches are manageable. He’s well on the road to recovery.

Ann-Marie has an excellent bedside manner and relates very well to our grandson, always calming him down. Her treatments always have a nice, calming effect on Braydon and it seems to give him a little attitude adjustment leaving him happier in general.”

~Tom & Tamra B.


“My daughter Kaia, now nine months old, has been receiving treatment from Ann-Marie since she was about 3 months of age. She's been treated for colic, colds, constipation, diarrhea, teething, a skin rash and immunization side effects. I've noticed significant improvements in all areas. To explain a few, Kaia's bouts of colic decreased in severity and number and she began to sleep through the nights on a more regular basis. I found that Kaia was also able to combat her colds much more quickly in comparison to other children with the same illness. Her immunizations seem to affect her a lot less than when she first began receiving them. Kaia seems to really enjoy her treatments with Ann-Marie and she leaves happy and content. People comment on what a happy baby Kaia is and I attribute a lot of that to Ann-Marie’s care.

Ann-Marie has also treated me for colds, migraines and tension and I too noticed improvements with all. Ann-Marie is a delight to work with, excellent at dealing with children and has been an enormous help to my daughter and myself.”

"I would like to share with you the experiences that I have had with Ann-Marie Yeager. When I first began treatment with Ann-Marie I had insomnia and very irregular menstrual cycles. Within weeks she had me sleeping 8 hour nights, Hooray! My periods had been off for the last 6 years. Every doctor that I saw during this time had either wanted to put me on birth control pills or just give me a hysterectomy, neither of which I considered to be an option. With the help of Ann-Marie and her knowledge of herbs and acupuncture she was able to get my cycles regulated in just a few short months. Her technique is so gentle, which is critical if you have a fear of needles as I do. I highly recommend Ann-Marie to everyone I know, I have her business cards on me at all times! Don’t leave home without them. Thanks again for all of your help; I am truly indebted to you."

"I’ve always been curious about acupuncture and Chinese medicine. After an initial consultation with Ann-Marie, I decided to try acupuncture. What a great experience! I now see her regularly and she has helped me immensely. Not only is she helping me, but now my 7 year-old daughter is a client - she absolutely loves Ann-Marie!

After just a few short visits I saw an improvement in a number of areas. I always feel so at ease when I see Ann-Marie. I also appreciate her professionalism and warm personality. Acupuncture is phenomenal and I highly recommend it!"

~Heather S.


“For the last 8 Thursday mornings, Thelonious has been receiving weekly acupuncture from Ann-Marie. The “tools” immediately fascinated him. The way that Ann-Marie presented them to him was very playful and direct; she even let him make up names for them. That first session was astonishing to me. Thelonious received his treatment without any hesitation, or wriggling about. He seemed immediately calmed and fascinated by the whole experience.

Immediately after the 15 minute session, he expelled a lot of gas and announced that he had to go to the bathroom. To me, this was a clear indication of movement, things moving through his system. That night, Thelonious, who is four years old, slept through the night without waking up and coming into my bed for the first time in his life!

Also, his immunity seems clearly boosted to me after an early spring of catching colds. He did have the beginnings of a cough recently, but it was gone completely the day after his treatment. This felt like a change in his usual pattern of battling with coughs for a few days. He is very much less congested. Colorado is so dry, and I feel that perhaps the stuffiness of his nose had contributed to Thelonious waking up at night, or stirring. This is no longer the case, even in allergy season. The way I would characterize the change in him is that he moved through minor illnesses -- colds and coughs – with greater ease. I feel like he is being hard-wired with another possibility for health even if it's just 15 minutes once a week.

I would also like to say that Ann-Marie is a completely present, mellow, attentive, silly practitioner of this powerful medicine. She is silly in the very best way -- she participates in the delight and friskiness of a young child's life. She doesn’t try to fix the experience, but rather, in my observation, follows the pace, needs, comfort level, and interest of the child. On the kid level, Thelonious gets enormously excited on "Annie days", as he calls the morning treatments with Ann-Marie. In weeks that are increasingly busy, it makes my heart so full to see my child receiving something that is so entirely in support of his health and well-being.”
