I came to see Shasta mainly for chemical sensitivities with symptoms
of tightness in chest, shortness of breath, numbness in sinuses, tightness in right lung, rib pain etc. I also experienced general fatigue all the
time and chronic low back pain. Much to my surprise Shasta informed
me that the fatigue and low back pain were related from a Chinese Medicine perspective, and that the allergies I felt should improve with an
increase of energy...
I began the health program she designed for me which included
changing my diet dramatically, getting to
bed earlier, and other lifestyle changes. I really appreciated how
Shasta combined Western Medicine
laboratory tests with the Chinese Medicine treatments. We were able
to rule out many possible problems by
testing what I may be allergic to, my gastrointestinal function, as
well as my hormones. Because of this
Shasta was able to refer me to the right places for different
ailments.
I am happy to say that after many years of chronic low back pain and
rib pain, I am almost pain free! It
seems as if my chemical sensitivities are better also. The
interesting thing is that the main thing Shasta
said we were setting out to achieve has happened -- I HAVE MUCH MORE
ENERGY!!
