Patient TestimonialsAcupuncture Pain Relief Testimonials
"It became so painful that I no longer could practice yoga regularly, or even modify my practice to suit my knee pain. Even yoga postures that were meant to soothe the knees hurt like no other. My knee caps were inflamed to the point that just walking hurt. "Don worked with me over the course of a few months, every week, with acupuncture and Chinese topical ointments. His clinic works on a sliding-scale with no proof of income required so patients can receive multiple treatments without breaking the bank. "After a few months, the pain in my knees completely subsided. It was such a blessing. His caring and compassionate ways are truly astounding!" Julie W., Gilbert, AZ Nutrition Diabetes Reversal Testimonial "I began working with Don Matesz in August of 2000. At the time, I was considerably overweight but the bigger problem was I also was diabetic with a blood sugar level of 560 when normal was between 70-110. My doctor put me on 50 units of insulin in the morning and 50 units at night plus 3 tablets of Glucophage daily. It was also recommended I go to diabetic education. "I went and was instructed to have a balanced diet complete with several servings of starches per day. Through this, I was able to get my blood sugars down to 140 but NEVER below that. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get under 140. I followed this regimen as my general practitioner specializing in adult medicine let me know I was on the ‘right path’. I also was involved at the time with an endocrinologist from the University of Wisconsin. "Through a personal trainer I was working with at the time, I was given Don and Rachel Matesz’ contact information. I had never worked with nutritionists before, except for the ‘diabetic educators.’ After contacting the Mateszes, I was sent a life changing ‘prescription’ regimen called the Paleolithic Diet which I began. Basically, I was to eat nothing that was processed! I also had to watch certain natural foods because of the sugar content that was naturally high. Exercise was also encouraged and which I continued as I was working with a personal trainer. "Following this plan, I was then told that I would soon not need the medicines...that I could control things through this diet and EXERCISE. I was scared as I also was following a rather intense amount of medicines…and HAD moved my numbers down considerably. My medical doctor told me that I would have to ALWAYS be on these medicines to control my diabetes. The key word here is CONTROL. Don let me know they were interested in reversing the diabetes, not treating and controlling it. "Following this regimen, I noted within a few days…DAYS…that my blood sugar dropped to the mid-70’s or WELL BELOW THE TOP NUMBER FOR DIABETES!!!!! Within a week, I was OFF all medicines and have NEVER BEEN BACK ON THEM! Following Don and Rachel’s advice, I was able to drop 70 lbs. Most importantly, I learned what good, healthy eating was. I learned about Omega 3’s. I learned what fruits were low in sugar and what was good for ME! They prescribed a plan that was customized and I have retained the knowledge to this day. They also sent me numerous print outs of articles pertaining to water consumption, the benefits of apples, grass fed beef/poultry versus grain fed, etc. I still have those print outs and refer to them when I need updating/reviewing/renewing my knowledge. "I would STRONGLY encourage ANYONE seeking to get off diabetic meds to listen to this couple. They KNOW what they are talking about and I am living proof of that. Again, not since August 2000, have I been on any diabetic medicines. I laugh when in a doctor’s office and hear about a new ‘treatment’ for diabetes. It is all I can do to keep from laughing when I hear that. I KNOW THE TRUE CURE…and I am NOT interested in treatments!!!!!! Thank you to Don and Rachel Matesz for getting me on the straight and narrow….for the encouragement to help me overcome ‘diabetic education’ as taught through the medical community!!!!!!" John Switzer-President Herbal Medicine Testimonial - Salivary Stone Dissolved "Don Matesz has helped me with a variety of health issues over the past 20 years. "In December of 2009 I experienced a strange sensation in my throat while eating. When I looked in the mirror I noticed a golf ball-sized bulge on the right side of my throat just under my chin that returned whenever I ate. It took visits to an ND, my dentist, and two oral surgeons along with an x-ray and CT scan over a 4 month period to confirm what Don thought I had, a blocked salivary duct. I don't have insurance and I didn't want to endure the costs and risks associated with one and possibly two surgeries. "Don researched the condition and possible treatments, then created a customized graunular herb formula that I could easily mix into warm water twice a day. I religiously took the formula for about 10 months, then switched to tablet formula, which I took for another 2 to 3 months. I also received several months of needle and laser acupuncture from Don. "Within 5 months of taking the herbs and getting acupuncture, the swelling was noticeably reduced. Yesterday (March 11th, 2010), I received a stone-free diagnosis from my oral surgeon (almost 1 year to the date I first saw him, had the scans, and got the official diagnosis). He palpated my throat and in my mouth and did CT scans from several angles to check for the original salivary stones and any that might be higher up in the gland. After reviewing the film he said he didn't see any stones and that I didn't need to come back unless my symptoms of swelling and pressure returned. "I am so relieved and grateful that Don was able to help me heal naturally and avoid surgery." Rachel A., Phoenix, AZ
