“Working with Masako has been such a pleasure. I was dealing with serious health issues when I decided to see her after traditional doctors kept telling me everything was fine. Masako helped me get back on track. I remember how I could not sleep at all and used to deal with severe stress and anxiety, stomach issues, skin issues, eye issues, ear issues, muscle issues, and all sorts of health issues. I went through her 12-week program and followed through precisely. To my surprise, 12 weeks later, I healed. I am so thankful to have met Masako. I now see her anytime I feel off balance, and she does not hesitate to help me as soon as possible. Thank you so much, Masako; I am forever grateful to have met you.”
“Before I had lots of aches and pains. My food cravings were out of control. I was unable to focus with fitful sleep.
Now, I feel amazing. Better than I’ve felt in years. Aches and pains are gone! Energy level is very high. Food and diet are healthy. I feel GREAT. I sleep well at night and awake refreshed. Masako is a careful, kind and caring practitioner who works with you to help you feel your best.”
“I got numbness in the right side of my whole body last July, and the doctor couldn’t find the reason. I found Masako through Google. I felt almost 80% better after the first four treatments. I went on asking Masako to treat my pounding headache, which I’ve been dealing with for more than 30 years. I’m so happy to share with everyone that I haven’t had a single pounding headache for four months. Furthermore, she also treats my two sons for bleeding noses and my husband for hypertension symptoms and diabetes. Masako is an Angel in my family life!”
“I’m 24. I had serious intestinal bloating for over 10 years, a vicious cycle of diarrhea and constipation, and a monthly episode where my intestines felt like they were going to pop from the gas in them. My doctor couldn’t figure out what was wrong, so I went to Masako.
After four months of Nutrition Response Testing, my bowels flowed properly and the painful gas buildup in my intestines was all-but-gone. I am now nine months into the program, tackling a reoccurring headache, and feel the healthiest I can remember.”
“I visited Masako for pain in my right thigh almost five years after running marathons at an early age. During those five years, I went to other doctors and physical therapists to pinpoint the cause of this pain, but sadly, I had no luck. It was not until I tried acupuncture with Masako that I began noticing positive changes in my pain. Not only did she help me at getting back to running with no pain, but also advised me in nutrition to have more energy throughout the day. Thank you, Masako, and hope you continue helping others!”
“ I have Sjogren’s Syndrome, and the Sjogren’s Syndrome Foundation had mentioned acupuncture as a possible aid for issues common with this auto-immune disease, so I was willing to give it a try. I was running out of options as I had a lifelong (65 years) issue with constipation and had been through years of high fiber, Metamucil, laxatives, prescription drugs, etc. until ultimately, I was so dependent on laxatives that I had to start eliminating fiber due to blockages. Diagnoses such as IBS-C, dysfunctional colon, and Chronic Constipation were given. I was so miserable (taking 3 Dulcolax, two caps of Miralax, and Amitiza daily to keep stool watery enough to pass, plus bleeding hemorrhoids that caused anemia) that I was considering partial or complete colon surgery. After almost a year and a half with Masako (she told me up front that it would take at least six months as it had been a lifelong issue), a pelvic floor therapist, and my colon surgeon (hemorrhoid bandings), I am now totally free of laxatives, able to pass a normal stool. Masako’s nutritional program and Nutrition Response Testing were the tools we used to get my gut health back to normal. I would not be where I am today without Masako guiding me and pushing me in the right direction.”
“In desperation with a recommendation from a friend I went to see Masako. Though new to acupuncture and highly skeptical, I began having regular visits and was amazed when I began seeing a dramatic improvement to my specific complaints. Masako’s patience and reassuring manner, coupled with her professionalism and determination to help me, proved successful far beyond my expectations. I strongly recommend her services to anyone experiencing pain. I have never had acupuncture before this event and I am 51.””
Joe's Healing Journey
My wife Lisa started seeing Masako Wada. She has been suffering from a thyroid condition for the last 30 years. She has also been suffering from allergies. Lisa has seen many Physicians concerning her thyroid, and not a one of them has been able to get her numbers under control. In fact, some have given her more than the maximum legal doses of Synthroid, with no results. After just a few months of seeing Masako, Lisa’s Thyroid numbers are back to normal for the first time in 30 years. She is starting to lose weight, and no longer takes Thyroid meds of any kind. Her allergies have improved significantly. Lisa had such great results, I decided to go see Masako myself and give her a real challenge!
I have been on Nexium for GERD (Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease) for almost 17 years. I have tried to wean myself off several times, but have such terrible stomach pains within a week, I have had to get right back on it. My allergies have been debilitating over the last 20 years. There have been days that I could not leave the house because of them. My stomach problems along with a lack of all of my intestines has caused me such digestive issues, that I have been miserable for years. I have been taking 2 different blood pressure meds as the Cardiologist wanted to keep it low as possible due to the Mitral Valve replacement I had 4 years ago.
During the first few visits with Masako, she suspected that I was also “Pre-Diabetic”. My blood sugar was borderline, and I was starting to have numbness in my toes and pain in my feet. Not a big surprise, as you know I drank a lot of Coke and my sweets intake was considerable. I even had candy bars stashed in my night stand. She also determined that I had Gout (which I knew). My liver was toxic and one of my kidneys was not functioning well. I have been seeing Masako once a week for about 2 1/2 months now. After seeing her for 3 weeks, I was completely off of the Nexium with no side effects! I am now completely off of all medications including blood pressure meds. I have lost over 30 pounds in 2 1/2 months! People who have not seen me in a while almost don’t recognize me. My Cholesterol is great, and blood sugar is down to a much more reasonable level. Uric acids are dropping and all indicators across the board are improving. Again, she has treated me with Whole Food Supplements and a severe change in diet.
I have cut 90% of the sugar from my diet. I still get some through fruits and vegetables. I no longer drink Coke or sodas of any kind. I have cut back on red meats ( the meat we do eat is usually bison or some other grass fed meat with no antibiotics.) We drink a Kale smoothie for breakfast every morning with a bit of protein powder from Standard Process, and a little fish oil in it. We eat lots of vegetables (most of them grown by us) and have cut out all bread and grains of any sort. We do eat a small amount of rice on occasion. Processed foods have become a thing of the past. With all of the research I have done, it has become evident to me that I was being poisoned through our food supply since I was a small child. We have been marketed to through our televisions and grocery aisles, to the point where we have been programmed to eat hundreds of pounds of sugar a year, as well as high fructose corn syrup, Wheat (which contains Glyphosate-the main ingredient in round up and also agent orange) and many other processed foods which contain a variety of synthetic garbage which ranges from being generally unhealthy to directly causing cancer.
In summation, I have never been healthier than I am right now. I have more energy and work harder than anyone I know. I could die tomorrow, but I will die feeling so much better than I have for the last 40 years. I really did not realize how sluggish I had become from taking all the antihistamines, prescription meds and from eating bad food. I am preaching to the world about a life change, that should have happened to me long ago. I may not have been ready for this years ago, but finally my awareness and education, along with my poor health has brought me to a point of redemption.
