What Our Clients Say
Take a look at what just some of our satisfied clients have said about Live by Design Health Center
Yelena’s treatment had an effect from square one. It took time but eventually not only could eat my meals without kneeling, but I no longer had to take opioids for the pain. So, it was a no-brainer when I found I had pain in my shoulder that I would return to Yelena for help. She did her magic once again. She knows her stuff and I would have no hesitation recommending her to anyone in need of her services.
Yelena used acupuncture throughout the pregnancy to help with morning sickness symptoms, heartburn, indigestion, leg cramping and swelling. My baby was transverse most of my pregnancy.Yelena was able to use an acupuncture technique to get the baby to turn head down, in preparation for delivery. I was overjoyed!
Yelena was so amazing. In our first meeting she examined my body and right away knew exactly what was wrong, more than any doctor could have told me, more than any doctor could have helped me. After just a few sessions with her I was feeling energized and on a healthy path. She healed my body and restored a healthy environment for me to conceive a baby and to hold the baby to his full-term.
I now have a healthy little boy. Yelena and her husband are both very good at what they do. They are very caring and great people.
