I firmly believe the reason that my IVF cycle was successful this time was because of my acupuncture treatments with Rebecca. Every step of my IVF cycle I responded more positively, and was much more relaxed throughout the whole process. I am now expecting triplets and continue to see Rebecca once a week.

Upon finding out, over three years ago, that I have cancer, something I was not ready to hear, I went to an oncologist to see what I could do for this disease. 

I was informed that the type of cancer I have is not curable at this time but, that it could be put into remission for a short period of time. I then asked how much time, they said eighteen months to three years.

At this point I opted to go on to chemotherapy since there wasn’t any other option; the physicians said that without chemotherapy I would only live six months. After months of chemotherapy I was in remission but, at what cost? My body felt used up like I had nothing left to give. So I asked the doctor if I had any other options. He told me that I could get a second opinion, which I did; I then went to the Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. They read the reports from my previous doctor and without any other testing said the same thing, I would have up to three years and to make the best of it. Feeling let down I went home to think about things. After getting over the shock and the remembrance of watching my mother waste away and die from this disease, I decided to go back to my doctor to see if there was any other type of treatment I could get. After a couple of weeks of badgering him, he finally recommended a consultation with Dr. Ronald Stram.

I made an appointment with Dr. Stram where we discussed my options; I began regular intravenous Vitamin C treatments with him. From that point on, I started feeling better than I had in a year. They then discussed with me a treatment that is used in Europe called Iscador and asked if I was interested in trying it. After educating myself about Iscador, I decided I would. After taking this for a few weeks I felt a hundred percent better and started to feel some fight back in my body.

I would recommend this treatment to anyone with this disease; also, to use this treatment along with chemotherapy in order to help eradicate the disease.

I cannot thank Dr. Stram  enough for this treatment. I will also let everyone know in the future how things are going.

PS. I do hope in the future insurance companies will realize that Integrative medicine offers help and hope to those who have run out of options.

I am so thrilled to have tried PRP for my knee!  I had been to several doctors, had MRI's and finally got a diagnosis of arthritis. I was told I had to live with it, take anti-inflammatories and "its just a part of getting older".  Then I discovered PRP and said, what the heck, what do I have to lose? I had only two treatments and wow, I have my old legs back and I am  without any pain. I am going up the stair like I used to, hiking longer and harder and every time I am thankful for this simple treatment that uses my own blood to fight inflammation and repair injuries. I highly recommend anyone with arthritis to give PRP a try. But just know it is not painless. Though the pain doesn't last very long at all.  I even had a little serum left over that they injected my thumb joint with and I have had no pain there since. And, Stram Center is less cost than most places. I am so grateful.
