I never thought I would look forward to seeing my acupuncturist, but I was lucky to get a recommendation for Rosanne Emanuele the first time I asked when we moved to Ann Arbor. I started going because my head was very congested after encountering the mold and dust in the house we bought. During the first session, I could feel a gentle "pop" as my sinuses began to drain and my body started to rid itself of the allergens. I continue to go every few weeks because it keeps my whole system balanced. And I'm so relaxed when I'm done. Unlike many acupuncturists, Rosanne stays in the room with you the whole time. While needles are working on one area, she moves to another spot and continues around your body until she feels you are "done." It's a great treat that's good for you.

Likes the hands...

Hey ! Your hands are magnificent ! They're really gentle but very very strong at the same time. Yeah, I'm gonna have to do this again, think I'll come every 6 weeks since 95% of my work is physical & lots of work on roofs.

Breathing and sleeping well...

I use inhalers daily. And my pulmonologist said she read in an article that 75% of insomniacs improve with acupuncture. I told her I've improved both in sleeping and digestion ( since treating with Rosanne) and at that she asked for your cards. So I gave her a bunch !

Cool and comfy now:

My hot flashes were so intense they were unbearable. And even after 3 visits wow! the difference is incredible.

Blood pressure pretty good...

It ( good results) seems to hold longer, you know, after coming monthly. I'm just doing this for maintenance ' cause my knee and shoulder are now better and they don't bother me at all now. Its just to keep a check on my blood pressure basically.

Text message:

Hi Rosanne! thanks for the treatment. Left knee and foot feel great! Time to crank up the training. CYA Dick.

I can deal...

I told my sister, "I want to stay there all day, I'd just like to stay there." She has acupuncture in Chicago. I just feel so relaxed, I don't know how else to say it ? The stressors are still there but I can deal with'em."

A note comes in the snail mail:

Hi Rosanne, Thanks again! I'm doing great. Still undergoing treatment, but just 3 more to go. My hands are great. Not a trace of neuropathy. About 2 weeks ago at my appointment the doctor asked about my hands. I told her they were fine. She took your name and number. :) Take care.

The grateful mother of a teen

My teenage daughter was suffering from very severe abdominal pain. Both local hospital's emergency rooms could find nothing. After a series of diagnostic tests she was released with pain meds for "undiagnosed abdominal pain." She was still in severe pain (8 0n a scale of 10). I decided to try alternative medicine and quickly made an appointment with Rosanne... My daughter's pain started to subside after one treatment and was gone after two treatments. I am so grateful to Rosanne and her compassionate skills for helping my daughter when the tradtional (approach) could not.

Woman suffering death of loved one, back and neck pain

I can't believe it ! I feel so much lighter ! And my eyes were twitching and stomach gurgling, what was that? But boy do I feel better...so much lighter. Sure you bet I'll come back, and my husband wants to come too. Sure, I'll give your cards to my doctor. I just don't like to take Zanax. I came for my back problem but had no idea at all that this (acupuncture ) could help my panic attacks and depression. I just can't tell you how surprised I am at how much better I feel! And I'm sleeping through the night now no middle of the night panic attacks. And I'm not using any sleep medication. I'm so much more at ease, day and night.

Wow! Awesome! I feel so relaxed. I'm astonished how much benefit I got in one treatment.

Acupuncture focuses my chronic dizziness, there's so much less feeling of constant motion and poor depth perception and it controls my nausea since the slip and fall accident . I've tried several other modalities, this approach allows me to function. And besides, it works! And my husband comes now- he just loves it !

..to be that far down now on prednisone and feel no pain, that's wonderful. When we get quiet I can feel such focus and that presence, ahh. Its wonderful.

I heard an MD on TV say 85% of all back pain could be relieved or resolved by acupuncture. So I came in after seeing another acupuncture with no help, and with ony 5 treatments my back was good for one year-til I fell again on the cement that is.

Someone recalls...

Remember when I broke my ankle? My toes were eggplant black and you treated me and all the black drained out in two days! Ammmmazing !

And others

~ Ever since the last treatment I've been sleeping so well. I got so stressed and fell off balance my anxiety and depression had me on scary roller coster. After 3 treatments I feel steady, can sleep and feel like working again. Amazing! And my appetite came back too.

~ I fell pretty hard and hurt my back and Kirk said, " Do you want me to take you to the E.R.?" And I said, "no and I know I don't need to go to the chiropractor but I need to go see Rosanne, yes, that's what I need". Once my back was really bad and you used that moxibustion stuff and you said that in a day or so my back'd be good and it was! Good to be back in your care.
