From: Kelly
Elmore For
many years I have suffered with Interstitial Cystitis. This is a
disease of the bladder lining with no known cause or cure. The symptoms mock
those of a urinary tract infection. After visiting with numerous Urologists,
I was told there are limited ways to treat this disease and I would have to
learn to live with the pain. As an avid runner, mother, wife, and full time
employee, this did not settle well. After watching an episode of Oprah on
alternative medicine, I decided to give acupuncture a try. I found Dr. Ming
Yang in my town. She possessed amazing credentials and was pleasant to speak
with on the phone. We scheduled my first appointment, where she thoroughly
explained the procedure and theory behind it. By my second and third
treatment, I had amazing progress. I was urinating less, but more
importantly, I was not having any bladder flare ups. I am continuing my
treatments but not as frequently. I can say I am now 100% pain free. I have
reduced my medicine dosage by 75% and feel fantastic. Dr. Yang is a true
angel with a gift. She has impacted my life and family in a way I can never
explain. I will forever be thankful to her. |

From: Paul
Malkowicz I
am 51 years old and since my 20's I have suffered from severe headaches.
I also suffered with Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Last 3
years my headaches became more frequent and intense to the point
that I had only 4 "headache free" days a month. My headaches
were not classified as migraine, they were cluster headaches that would
rebound continuously. I had been to 2 Neurologists, 1 Chiropractor, 1
Shrink, and 1 Allergist during the last 3 years. Numerous medications
were tried. I finally tried acupuncture and met Dr. Ming Yang.
She listened intently to every thing I told her. She did a very good
assessment of my condition. She told me that my headaches were
emotional and stress related. She treated my whole body and the IBS
disappeared after one treatment. By the third treatment there was
significant improvement in my headaches. I could go almost a week
headache free. By the 5th treatment I felt even better. After 6 treatments
my use of headache medications is down by 75-85 %. Dr. Ming Yang
truly cares about helping people, most important SHE LISTENS TO YOU. Terry |

From Mary Jane To: myacupuncture2004@yahoo.com I have been low back pain free, ever since
treating with Dr. Ming Yang. I am an avid workout
nut, exercising usually 7 days a week. Over the years, I never let
my low back pain stop me from working out, but there were times it was quite
painful. I have been to numerous chiropractors to treat this pain, but never
got the relief I did with acupuncture. I had never really known enough
about acupuncture to investigate it for myself. That was until I met with Dr.
Yang. She took the time to explain all the benefits of acupuncture, and so I
started my treatments. Within a short period of time, my pain lessen, and
today I do not suffer with this pain. Since I had problems with my low back
for years, and chiropractic treatments did not alleviate it, I thought I
would have to live with this pain. Not anymore. I really believe in
acupuncture now, and I attribute all that to Dr. Yang. She has great
credentials, plus she really cares about alleviating your suffering. She
is so happy when any of her patients show improvement. I continue to
recommend her to all my family and friends. Maryjane |

From: John and
Dianne <jcarmody7@comcast.net> I have
become a believer in the powers of acupuncture, and more specifically in the
powers of Dr. Ming Yang. I was diagnosed several years ago with Fibromyalgia,
which is not a degenerative disease, but it did cause me a great deal of pain
and discomfort. I have struggled with this disease, and although medication
(sleep aids, nsaids and antidepressants) made it easier to bear, I was never
without its negative effects. Lack of sleep and stress exacerbated the pain
and discomfort. |

Testimony I am a 70 year
old female. I had Juvenile Rhematoid Arthritis and was hospitalized,
in traction, for three years at age 10,11,12 and 13. My advanced arthritis
severe flared up about 1999. I started six years of i.V. Remicade, Humara ,
Embrel, and Orencia treatment. In 2004, 5, and 6, I had two hip replacements,
and a left knee replacement. I had numerous facets, medial branchneurotomy
and steroid injections with many rheumatoligest and pain management
specialists. I have taken many pain medicine and arthritis medications for
years, including oxycodone, oxycotin, prednisone, and methotrexate.
I’v used the duragestic (fentanyl) patch for pain the last couple of
years. My daughter successfully took her Scotch Terrier dog for acupuncture
in early 2007 and suggested I try acupuncture for my pain in my lower back
and hands. My lower back is severely curved. I also desired
to lessen or discontinue the many medications I’v been taking for
years. After receiving consultation, advice, and superior acupuncture
treatment from Dr. Ming Yang my arthritis pain was greatly relieved
and I was able to cut back or discontinue a number of my medications. I
regret that I hadn’t tried acupuncture many years ago and believe Dr. Ming
Yang would have been able to give me more successful permanent and lasting
results. Hannah Mee

<bspadaro123@aol.com> Hi, Ming! After a
thorough assessment, Dr. Yang began an overall treatment designed to improve
my energy level and sleep habits. After about a month of weekly
treatments, I began to sleep well, and feel relaxed and alert instead of
enervated In addition, many of the so-called effects of “aging”
(including hot flashes, fluid retention, and joint pains) began to
diminish. Today, after 8 months of treatments, I feel more vitality
than I have in years, and my overall well-being is continuing to
improve. I continue to
receive weekly treatments, and I would highly recommend acupuncture—and
specifically treatments from Dr. Yang— to anyone who is interested in
maintaining health and well-being throughout all stages of life. Barbara

September 13, 2007 5:36:52 PM To:myacupuncture2004@yahoo.com Hello Dr. Ming
Yang, I am an 81
year old female and I've had remarkable results due to your
acupuncture treatments. Every week has brought new discoveries as to how my
health is improving under your expert care. I've had trouble with
constipation and now I'm not using any laxative supplements and having
more frequent and productive bowel movements daily (one or two per
day). I'm also sleeping much better as my bladder control
has greatly improved. I find I'm getting more sleep with less
disturbance as I do not need to go to the bathroom often during the
night. I'm sleeping better overall and enjoying deep sleep during the night.
Two other remarkable improvements have surfaced of late... my toe nails
are now easier to trim and my lungs are better... I'm not
getting out of breath when I take walks with my daughter. My energy
level has improved, I'm more comfortable and feeling lighter. Thank you ever
so much for all the help you continue to bring me... My quality of life
has definitely improved! Sincerely, Gertrude

was still in pain. I went to two different doctors for opinions,
and was told I probably had a tear. I was in pain, and could not
really walk well. My quality of life decreased, and I became
frustrated, depressed and stressed out. The last doctor I saw
suggested acupuncture. I searched and was very fortunate to have found
Dr. Yang. I drive close to an hour and a half each way to see
Dr. Yang, and worth every mile I drive. She helped me with my

thank you for your help with my IBS problems. I had been
experience chronic diarrhea for over 6 months and had tried traditional
medical treatments with no success. After just three treatments of
acupuncture my symptoms disappeared and as of now they have not
returned. I have been able to resume my normal functioning. Although I
came to you with many different symptoms ranging from lower back pain,
diarrhea, dry skin, and weight gain your honest assessment as to what
I could expect was appreciated. You told me what I could expect to get
relief from and gave me suggestions to help with symptoms that you felt could
not be totally eliminated with acupuncture. In the past thirteen treatments I
have had amazing results. My diarrhea has been corrected, my skin is
less dry, I feel more energetic and less stressed. Your
experience, honest feedback and warm manner all added to an outcome that was
more than I could have hoped for. I will continue treatment with you
and I am sure I will continue to experience relief from my long standing IBS
problems. Fondly Penny Bilofsky Cherry Hill NJ From:

Testimonial I first came
to Dr. Yang in April 2008 - primarily to treat Anxiety, dizziness and
Headache issues that I have wrestled with for almost 20 years. Having
tried many “traditional” therapies - I came to acupuncture with an open mind
- and guarded optimism. I was very please to find that within a month
of treatment, the frequency and level of my anxieties had significantly
decreased from about a “9” (on a scale of 1 - 10) to about a “2” and at times
even a “1” - accompanied by very significant improvements in my dizziness and
Headache issues as well. An unexpected plus was a strong improvement
in my overall well being and energy level! Dr. Yang also took the time to
explain the importance of plenty of rest, good nutritional balance
coupled with a positive, happy view of life - enhancing my emotional well
being as well. William Bang From: Cheryl

15, 2008 11:13:50 AM To:myacupuncture2004@yahoo.com Looking back
at this ongoing experience I can’t help but wonder how I lived for so long in
so much pain. When you’re 23
years old and feel your world is crumbling around you, there is something
wrong. Before my treatments with Dr. Yang, I felt acupuncture was my last
hope, but had no idea it would have such a positive, life changing effect on
my health. For the past three
years I’ve been suffering with horrendous symptoms that I honestly wouldn’t
believe a 23 yr. old having. Just to name a few of my symptoms - mood swings, anger, depressions, anxiety,
uncontrollable appetite, water retention, sweats, painful and light periods,
dryness, heart palpitations, and severe acne. PMS, acne and unexplainable
symptoms during my cycle were taking over my life. During this time of
the month, I had no control over my bodily functions and had debilitating
pain that left me in a trance of paralyzing pain. I tried everything, and it was to the point that my Gyno
thought I was crazing. After only a
couple treatments with Dr. Yang my symptoms started to get less and
less. After 2 months of
treatment my acne cleared drastically, and my PMS was dwindling down to
nothing. Now with 6 months of
treatment not only is my complection flawless, I have no PMS, and very little
cramping. I plan to continue
treatment because it has given me my life back. Dr. Yang is
amazing. I never met a doctor
that truly cares and takes the time to listen. She is patience, understanding, compassionate and makes
solid relationships. Dr. Yang is an angle sent down from heaven, and I feel
privileged to be one of her patients. I use to
always hear the miracle stories and wonder why I couldn’t find anything out
there for me that had real results.
Now, I can finally be one of those people, and it’s all because of Dr.
Yang! Cheryl Kay Clarence
Reichenbach <clarencervt@verizon.net> Jeff S <ibesnowboarding@yahoo.com> Add To: myacupuncture2004@yahoo.com My anxiety was
unbearable for such a long time. I tried many other treatments but none of them
seemed to work. A family member of mine got me interested when they said
acupuncture helped them. My first visit I was a little scared but Dr Yang was
so kind there was nothing to be afraid of. After my first treatment I noticed a remarkable change. My overall
attitude felt much better, I had more energy, and I wasn’t so worried
anymore. I am still getting acupuncture
done and I look forward to each session. I love it!! Acupuncture has worked
for me and it will work for you with the help of Dr. Yang. Dr Yang is a great
Doctor and I can’t thank her enough. There is hope for whatever you going
through. Don’t worry!! Jeffrey

dinny447@comcast.net To:
After becoming extremely disenchanted with the whole western
health care system and the snails pace with which it moves, I decided to seek
help elsewhere for the discomfort I was experiencing from tendonitis of the rotator cuff. After doing some research, I
came upon Dr. Yang's website and was very impressed with her credentials. At my first appointment with Dr. Yang, I realized that I also
needed help with some other issues I was experiencing; PMS (bloating and moodiness), extreme anxiety and quite possibly
depression from a few years of life experiences. I only realized
this due to Dr. Yang being so thorough at my initial consultation. She
doesn't treat one body part or one ailment. She treats your body as a whole.
She counseled me on better nutrition and trying to find the balance in all
aspects of my life. After just one
treatment my anxiety and depression had just about vanished. After a few more
treatments the discomfort of my tendonitis and PMS had vanished as well. Dr. Yang is a woman that I respect as a professional and as a
person.

Fri, July 30, 2010 7:12:57 PM From: Shirley Levey To: Margret Yang <myacupuncture2008@yahoo.com> As you know, our meeting two years ago...was brief due to a pain in my leg that family doctors recommended surgery...... After having that surgery.......the pain persisted........PLUS got much worse....traveling to my groin, lower back and up to the middle of my back. Again, my primary sent me to PAIN MANAGEMENT.......if you remember...I was upset with taking so many MOTRIN......PAIN MANAGEMENT said it was part of the aging process and we just have to CONTROL the pain.......and NARCOTIC was prescribed.......it helped! Deadened the pain...but could not sleep.......my Podiatrist thought it was coming from my hip and asked for films to check it out....... was not bad. PAIN still persisted. I hated nights! for the next two years I lived a terrible existence. I work every day......sometimes dragging myself to work after being up all night......now not only was I on a Narcotic at night to relieve the pain.....but during the day I was taking MOTRIN....and then a sleep aid to go to sleep at nights.........Now I had three doctors.....the narcotic started to play havoc on my elimination system....so here was other problems starting that I never had! I never felt so alone misunderstood.......just could not take any more pills... I reached out to you once again........the very first session......I had no pain in my upper back.....my legs still bothered me that night.......The 2nd treatment....... I am so overjoyed to say....I was pain free.........the first time in two years! I slept without any pills! which was a miracle! I am so overjoyed...with having found you again........I should have never left the first time........ If anyone would like to talk to me about my experience with your service........PLEASE ...feel free to refer them to me...I tell everyone I know.........I hope we are together for a very long time..........and I know I will continue to follow your lead......thank you Dr. Yang.......thank you ...thank you.

| Testimonial From Alida Bowley Friday, July 29, 2011 8:12 PM From: "Alida Bowley" <alida.de.araujo@gmail.com>To: Margret Yang <myacupuncture2008@yahoo.com> Last fall, our daughter was diagnosed with severe depression by both a neurologist and a psychiatrist, the psychiatrist adding additional diagnoses of bi-polar disorder and psychosis. Both told us that the only way to address this mental disorder was with lifelong anti-depressant drugs. Because our thought was that our daughter’s illness might be correlated with her recent start of birth control pills (these prescribed by her gynecologist to control her extremely heavy menstrual flow), we felt that the introduction of another medication would only pose an additional and equally serious challenge to her already compromised well-being. We, therefore, turned to Chinese medicine for a more natural way to her healing. Dr Yang kindly received us and listened carefully to our concerns. She encouraged our daughter to take steps to begin eating normally again, to take daily vitamins, and to be conscientious in keeping regular hours for sleep. Over several months of acupuncture treatments, gradual but significant improvements became evident. Dr Yang was supportive the entire time, through our ups and downs, and when we had questions about the course of treatment and its effectiveness. After about eight months, our daughter herself was able to make the decision that she no longer needed the support of acupuncture, which prior to this time, she would not have been able to make objectively as her thought processes were then compromised. Our daughter has now returned to the person we knew her to be before the onset of her illness. We thank you, Dr Yang, for taking on the challenge that our daughter presented and for assisting her recovery through Chinese natural medicine, the path that western traditional medicine mistakenly chooses to ignore. We believe that too many people are unnecessarily medicated and over-medicated, and unfairly suffer from serious side effects from a regimen of drugs, to the wrongful benefit of pharmacies and the manufacturers of drugs who see profits at the expense of escalating health insurance costs and the individual’s right to natural healing. |

| Thursday, August 4, 2011 6:43 PM From: "dlkrauser34@aol.com" dlkrauser34@aol.com To: myacupuncture2008@yahoo.comDr. Yang, Just wanted to send you a little information regarding my treatments with you. I have had terrible low back pain for three years. I believe it all started after about 7 months of my pregnancy. I tried several different things to try and relieve the pain: trigger point injections, physical therapy, and of course, pain relievers. Nothing worked. Nothing. Then I went to see you and figured even though I absolutely despise needles, I would give acupuncture a try. Well, it worked. After about three weeks, I started to feel almost no pain. And then in another week or two, the pain was completely gone. But that is when I made the mistake of stopping. I thought because I felt so good, that I was immediately cured for good. I went six weeks with no pain, and no treatments. And I acted as if I never had pain. I went about my daily activities and started lifting heavy things and then realized the pain came back. I should have listened to you because you told me that I should not have stopped acupuncture completely just yet. Instead of going twice a week, you told me that I should at least just go once a week and work my way through to maintain the relief. But I didn't listen. So, I came back to you and your treatments have already started giving me relief again. I noticed that going twice a week works well for me. I also realized that I need to avoid lifting heavy things while I am in treatment. With treatments and rest, I am on my way to feeling 100% better. I can't thank you enough, Dr. Yang. You have given me my life back. I can now play with my daughter and do all of the things that I enjoy doing. And on a side note, acupuncture has definitely reduced my stress and anxiety levels. My husband will attest to that :) Darlene Krauser Pensylvania |

From: Apryl Ario <aprylario@yahoo.com> I have been suffering from migraines since I was 25 years of age and at that time my family Dr had put me on Maxalt. This seemed to work for a while but then they got out of control and they started to give shots in the back of my head between my skull & spine, which was being done every two weeks for several months, until the Dr that was doing this left. They sent me to have epidurals in my neck thinking this would help, instead it hurt & I said never again. I moved out of state & they seemed to calm down for a while but they did start again but not as bad so my family Dr (different Dr) put me on Topamax & Max-alt once again, this did seem to work for a while. I moved back to New Jersey in 2006 and they were coming back three times a week, when I went to my new family Dr they had me go to a Neurologist. I went and had all the test they could have me have, brain scans, MRI's blood work, they came up with trying different meds. I didn't care for that Dr so my husband & I changed to one of the top Neurologist in Cooper & she put me on Nortriptylin, Verapamil, Zoloft, Treximet and Promethazine. I couldn't understand why I was put on blood pressure medicine when I never had high blood pressure, I was told this should keep my vessels open, I wanted this to work so I tried, but like all the other times I guess my body got use to the medicine & they stopped working. I was up to 12 pills a day & they were just for migraines! I had a really bad migraine that put me out of work for 3 days & fearing I would lose my job I looked other help & that's when I found acupuncture. This is when I meant DR Ming Yang, my miracle doctor, I e-mailed her telling her a little of my issues & she immediately called me back within an hour & said she believed she could help. I made an appointment & she explained everything to me & my husband & we decided to give it a try & I am HAPPY to say I have had five treatments and have been going since the 23rd of Feb. and have had NO major migraines! I had one little one but I was able to handle that but I really consider that Dr. Ming Yang is my savior, I had no life & she has given back to me & I can't thank her enough. I feel that you have to have faith that it will work before you go, I was at my wits end I had no where else to go & she has turned me around. My husband makes sure that we stay within all her suggestions & do what she says because she diffidently know what she is talking about. My husband says he loves it because I am smiling once again & enjoying life! Dr Yang is also treating me for my allergies. I just can't believe how I have suffered for the last six years having a migraine at least 5 out of 7 days & now going for over a month with no migraines, it's like having a new life again!

5/2012 I am a 56 year old female who has recently been declared permanently disabled due to degenerative spinal disease (18 damaged discs). In addition, I suffered for years with severe sciatica (EMG showing ongoing nerve damage) which did not adequately respond to physical therapy, water therapy, traction, facet joint injections, epidural injections and various other pain management techniques. I have had fibromyalgia for more than 30 years which would flare up in the autumn but for the past year I endured a fibromyalgia flare up (due to the chronic pain) that was so severe and long-lasting that the insomnia, fatigue, migraines and muscle pain was a constant hell which made me question my ability to live... especially since there was no relief or hope of a cure. Yoga, meditation, supplements and medication helped me to put one foot in front of the other each day but just barely; my quality of life was gone. After researching, interviewing and rejecting several acupuncturists because they either didn't have the qualifications I sought or because they required treatment packages with high fees, I finally found Dr. Yang. Not only are her credentials an exceptional trifecta (MD, PhD in neuroscience and Chinese trained acupuncturist) she has decades of experience and truly cares about helping her patients. I have not had a single migraine or any sort of headache since beginning treatment but most astonishing is that my energy levels are so much higher! I am sleeping much better and sleep is key to preventing and/or recovering from a severe fibromyalgia flare up. Yesterday I felt better than I have in several years and my constitution feels much stronger!! My pain levels are lower and the stress and anxiety/depression from chronic pain (due to the damaged discs, sciatica, fibro and polyarthritis) is much more manageable. This is literally a life saver!! I realize now that I spent years with unnecessary suffering and wish I had tried acupuncture (specifically from Dr. Yang) before all of the failed or suboptimal Western medications and treatments. If you want to feel better, don't delay treatment with Dr. Yang and do as she tells you. I do not publish my email but I would be happy to correspond with prospective patients. Ask Dr. Yang how you can contact me if you would like more information. Jean M Mount Laurel, NJ |
