Yesterday I received an email from a person with whom I have been friends since she was 18 years old. Suffice it to say that we are both decades older from when we first met – me having an additional decade over her. Her email saddened me, but it also illuminated a great truth for me. Seeing my success with […]
Stretching for the Win – by Susan Tretakis – Most of you are familiar with the story of Pavlov’s experiment with the dog. The definitive example of “classical conditioning”, it is why I can no longer allow myself to watch info-commercials on television at 2 and 3 in the morning. Like Pavlov’s dog, I hear the words, “This price is […]
My husband and I could not easily afford another IVF cycle if the first cycle did not work, so we were committed to taking all the necessary steps to ensure the best chance of success during our first IVF cycle. Because of this commitment, and after researching the demonstrated effectiveness of acupuncture in increasing the success rates of IVF cycles, we eagerly decided to invest in acupuncture treatments under the care of Dr. Robert Herbst. From the onset, Dr. Herbst was very attentive to my needs. He answered all questions (even when I thought they were ridiculous) about the treatment plan, and the cost for acupuncture during an IVF cycle. We were impressed by his professionalism and friendly nature, and we were surprised that the cost for each treatment was much more affordable than we had imagined.
I can't thank Dr. Herbst (even Dr. Zhou who stepped in and assisted whenever possible) enough for all their support throughout this process. We are expecting our little miracle in November 20018 and part of that success is due to these wonderful doctors. You put my mind at ease and helped put me in the right frame of mind.
Care Wellness Center is a great place with a wonderful staff! Everyone is always so friendly and accommodating! The doctors really care about your well being and want to help you in any way they can. I did acupuncture for about 4 months with Dr. Herbst who took an interest in getting to know me and helping! I would recommend Care Wellness Center to anyone!
I started seeing Dr. Herbst six months ago after being diagnosed with GERD. I did not want to go the route of taking meds and not fixing the problem. I did the bloodwork to find out about food sensitivities, truly amazing the difference after stopping foods that were making me sick! Of course I was getting acupuncture as well. Recently I did a comprehensive GI test, and am on a course of treatment to heal my gut. With my acupuncture, and natural medicine to heal myself I feel so much better!! I am not uncomfortable all the time and have lost weight!! When asked I am always referring people to Dr. Herbst! I believe in the natural way to help your body heal and they are wonderful at the Wellness center! If you are looking for a alternative to western medicine this is the place to go!
I have been under Dr. Landon’s care since October, 2016. In that time, his acupuncture skill and nutritional advice have helped me combat sleep issues, stress and anxiety attacks and to lose 90 pounds. Yes, it has been over a year, but his concern and support never faltered, even when I was the most hard on myself. Dr. Landon taught me to think differently, and therefore, to act differently. I can truthfully say – without any exaggeration - he and acupuncture have changed my life.
As has Dr. Zhou. Even as intern at Care Wellness Center in Margate, Florida, Dr. Zhou exhibited the same compassion and kindness demonstrated by Dr. Landon. Now a TCM doctor on staff, Dr. Zhou brings her unique skill set to an already well established acupuncture center. Dr. Zhou has augmented my knowledge of TCM – let alone shared some incredibly delicious recipes!
Both Dr. Landon and Dr. Zhou make you feel as if you are being treated by true “health-care” professionals rather than many doctors who are “disease-care” driven in their approach. Both are approachable, understanding and caring. They have my highest recommendation – and my deepest thanks.
I have been seeing Dr Robert Herbst for over six months. This has been a wonderful life changing experience. I have suffered with anxiety and insomnia for the last few years, and I do not wish to take prescription medications. I have done quite a bit of research on the side effects of the medications that my doctor wanted to prescribe. I learned that once I begin to take these medications it would have been very difficult to stop. I decided to find an alternative method to help with the problems that I was having. After I was seen by Dr Herbst, I started to feel less anxious and started to sleep better. In the last month, I have to say that I am sleeping the way I used to sleep before my anxiety/and insomnia issues started. Not only do I love the fact that I am a much more calm person and I can sleep through the whole night, I have to say that the experience that I have during the treatments is amazing!!! I feel an immediate calmness once the procedure begins. It is difficult to explain the level of relaxation that I experience for the 25 or so minutes that I am left in this dimly lit room with soothing music playing. Thank you Dr. Herbst!
