TESTIMONIALS

“I have known Andrea professionally and personally for 5 years.  As a physical therapist she has been a great referral source for everything from chronic pain to post menopausal symptoms.  I have always gotten positive feedback from each patient that has seen Andrea.

Personally, Andrea has helped me on multiple occasions for insomnia, back pain and stress.  The combination of the traditional acupuncture and herbs that were recommended by Andrea have help me sleep better, manage stress and decreased pain due to injuries.”

Bryan Graham, MPT

“Being “semi afraid” of needles most of my life I’ve avoided acupuncture and pursued other healing modalities that don’t involve them.  That is until I met Andrea Murphy.  Her caring, sunny demeanor won me over and the next thing I knew I was experiencing the healing benefits of acupuncture without fear or pain.  I would highly recommend Andrea to anyone searching for a skilled, compassionate healer.”

“When I arrived in Florida in 2000, I went searching for an acupuncturist to help me with my problem of weakness and numbness and tingling in my legs.  I searched thru advertisements and found an oriental doctor in West Palm Beach.  I saw him 2-3 times per week for a couple of weeks and felt no change.  A student of mine recommended Andrea after his client saw her and raved about her.  I was pleasantly surprised.  She spent so much time with me on my first visit…and after that the next few treatments had such a positive effect on my condition.  Since then, I have recommended everyone I know that could benefit from her knowledge and expertise in the field of acupuncture.”

 “Andrea Murphy has treated me for injuries and imbalances with great success.  She also eliminated my 14 year old son’s migraines.  She is truly a gifted acupuncturist.” 
 

 “It is astounding to me the positive effects that occur after having an acupuncture session with Andrea Murphy.  I have literally walked into her office with painful sinus pressure and flu like symptoms, and a few hours after the session felt fine with no previous symptoms.  What also is beneficial is that she is able to concurrently treat pain in my lower back while she is working on my sinuses, and/or boosting my immune system.  For someone who has chronically needed antibiotics for sinus infections, I much prefer being treated the more natural method through acupuncture.  I am totally convinced of the benefits of acupuncture and highly recommend Andrea who radiates competency, professionalism and has the warmth of your best-friend.”

“Knowing very little about acupuncture except for the fact that it involved many needles placed throughout the body, but believing in Eastern healing philosophies I attempted this new venture.  I was fortunate enough to have been referred to Andrea Murphy who instantly made me comfortable and answered all my questions.  My fear of needles vanished after my first session due to the careful and knowledgeable care of Andrea.  I originally started going for backaches and after only a few sessions I had great results.  I decided to work on weight loss, the common cold and currently just for relaxation and balance.  I have come to look forward to my every session and seeing Andrea as well.  She is a delightful woman with positive energy that truly knows her profession. You will be greeted by a warm smile and an open heart.  You won’t be disappointed!  I would highly recommend Andrea.”

“I had always heard about acupuncture, but was hesitant to try it.  However, after meeting Andrea, I was put at ease and have been a patient of her for the last five years.  Through acupuncture, I am able to have a regular monthly cycle and the cramping and moodiness that came with it significantly reduced (which my family is thankful for).  I have also benefited from acupuncture for stress, neck and back pain, allergies, and blood pressure.

Since I was so confident in Andrea, I brought my husband and son to see her as well.  My son, who is eleven, likes to see her for stress reduction.  He usually falls asleep during treatment and is very relaxed afterward.  Being an eleven year old can be stressful with all that schoolwork and preteen hormones running amok.

As for my husband, he decided to quit smoking and I convinced him that Andrea could help him through acupuncture.  After a few weeks of treatment and lifestyle changes, he stopped smoking.  The acupuncture helped reduced his craving for cigarettes and kept the stress from the withdrawal to a minimum.  He now sees her for continued stress management as well as back pain and sinus issues.

Depending on your body and how quickly it reacts to the acupuncture, results are often immediate, while other times it may take a few treatments to feel better.  My advice to anyone looking to try acupuncture is put your fear of needles aside (you rarely ever even know they are there), prepare you mind to be relaxed, and let your body do what it is capable of doing naturally. Thank you Andrea.”

"I want to express how great acupuncture has worked for me.  I had hamstring tendinitis that flared up in the Melbourne race last October. To make a long story short I have seen 3 doctors, 2 different physical therapists, and received a steroid injection.  I could swim and bike, but running killed my knee--the last PT claimed the problem was my Iliotibial band, so I bought an IT band compression wrap and tried running with it on.  The pain and discomfort was unbelievable. Traditions race came and went. I was getting bummed that I could not compete.  I even thought about finding a relay partner to do the run-I was getting desperate.  I was on the verge of giving up racing this year when I remembered an e-mail about acupuncture.  I have been to see Andrea four times.  I did my first brick yesterday and had no pain,  I wish it had not been "my last hope" move on my part. I highly recommend her to everyone."
