“I’ve been to other acupuncturists before but never felt cared for, always felt like just another 12 minute patient. I feel like AFH has a more comprehensive approach to my health issues. After the first treatment I immediately felt a positive change. I’m sleeping better, feel less stressed and above all my allergies feel much better. I can’t wait to further my improvement on my second treatment.” – Joe

“Something felt different after a neurofeedback treatment, I’m not getting as mad and feel alot calmer and less stiff. ” – Jane

I have had Tinnitus for approximately 20 years. It started as a slight ring and a little whooshing noise. I used to ask my wife if she could “hear that noise”.

As time went on it got continuously louder, sometimes I could not hear much of anything else.

The sound, both a constant ring and whoosh, would eventually max out at a level 10 (level one being the least) and it stayed there 24/7.

I have not had a day without the noise; eventually it ranged between 7 and 10 and along with that a pressure in my head.
To sit in a room alone and hear nothing but my breathing was a dream that would never come true; or so I thought.

I was introduced to Dr. Christina Checinski around April of 2019; a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, she told me that there was a protocol for tinnitus and that she was positive it could help.

She was absolutely correct! After my first treatment my level dropped from a 10 to about an eight and after the second session it dropped to 5. I went to her twice a week for a few weeks and then once a week every two weeks; the level dropped to around a 4/3 in one ear and about a 2/1 in the other. Along with the acupuncture Dr. Christina has me take different herbs in order to further assist in the cure.

I receive treatment once a month now, most days the noise level is around a two in the left ear and one in the right – It has gotten to the point where I can ignore the sound.

Dr. Christina is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to her profession and I believe, with her help, the sound that has plagued me for the past 20 years will be gone.
