If you’ve ever had chronic knee pain, you will appreciate this. I have suffered from chronic knee pain for a number of years and it finally got to the point where I needed to do something about it. I spoke with Dr. Lorne Brown at Acubalance in Vancouver who suggested that I try a series of laser (LLLT)…
Acubalance’s Low Level Laser Therapy on my knees HAS CHANGED MY LIFE!! Really it has! In June 2017, I was barely able to stand-up off my couch without significant pain. I wouldn’t stand up with my kids in the room for fear of them knocking into me by accident and it would take me about…
Over the last couple of years, I’ve woken up once every few months with shooting neck and back pain, like a pinched nerve. Recently this happened a day before I was to fly to Europe and the thought of spending 9-10 hours trapped in my seat with this pain made me call Acubalance. I had…
Last winter my shoulder was injured; a partial tear of the right shoulder tendon. It was very painful and I could not raise my arm high enough to do my hair. My doctor told me this just happens as we get older and react to injury, unofficially calling it “50 year old woman’s disease”. He…
I wanted to share a recent letter we received from a patient who was experiencing acute, severe jaw and tooth pain. She came for a series of Acupuncture and Laser (LLLT – Low Level Light Therapy) treatments to decrease inflammation and improve cellular health. Hello Ryan-What a nice surprise to receive your message! I can’t…
When I discovered Lorne’s approach at Acubalance, it was such a relief to be treated as a whole person after encountering the detachment of the Western medical approach. I had been trying to conceive for three years when I decided to try acupuncture after having some small spots of endometriosis removed. My gynecologist had told…
After all that I had endured medically and surgically, coming to Acubalance was a huge step for me. I knew that my body had been taxed by all the procedures and instrumentation of the surgeries and the complications that ensued. I was grateful that in knowing my medical history, you felt you were up to…
I was diagnosed with endometriosis after experiencing both bleeding and pain during intercourse. An ultrasound examination showed that I had a 10cm endometrioma on my right ovary and laparoscopic surgery was scheduled to follow. During surgery, it was discovered that I had severe endometriosis affecting my ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, and bowel. The surgery was…
I had been in peri-menopause for eight years when I started going to Acubalance. After acupuncture and only two doses of her medicinal Chinese tea, my hot flashes completely went away and my life finally felt calm. My team at Acubalance saved me from insanity in my 40s! I cannot impress enough upon women of…
Dr Ryan Funk offers a knowledgeable, unique, and heartfelt approach to his acupuncture practice. After years of visiting many doctors, Dr. Funk single-handedly helped me more than any other practitioner in any other field (and not just in getting me over a fear of needles!). To be honest, at first, I did not see how…
