Successful Treatment of Knee and Shoulder Problems
A male patient in his 50s came for treatment in 2009. He suffered from a tear in his knee. His pain level was quite severe (7 out of 10). The knee seemed to be inflamed. The medical doctor had recommended knee surgery.

Six acupuncture treatments were applied over a total length of three months. Note that the patient was on Medicare (low income) and, therefore, was entitled to one treatment only within two weeks.

The results turned out great. The patient became gradually better. His pain went away completely. The results sustained. He never needed surgery and never did have pain again regarding the condition treated.

The same patient also suffered from a rotator cuff problem on his right shoulder. The pain level fluctuated between 6 and 7 (out of 10) depending on the time of the day (usually worse at night). The symptoms included a limited range of motion (particular positions caused intense pain). Surgery had been recommended by the MD.

Dr. Kalfus applied a combined program composed of acupuncture and one homeopathic remedy. The treatment lasted for several months (once every second week).

The patient improved with every treatment. The pain was completely removed (patient rarely has some sensitivity). His range of motion has been 90% restored. The results have been sustained ever since. No surgery has ever been needed.
