I never imagined that I could feel this way.  I was hesitant to believe that acupuncture could improve the lines and sagging in my face.  It has not only changed my appearance, but the way I feel about myself.  It's all positive.  By far, this is the best thing that I have ever done for me!  Thank you Lumina.

"Cosmetic Acupuncture has softened and diminished the creases on my forehead and fine lines around my eyes.  Others have commented that my skin now has more clarity, colour and vibrancy.  The treatment itself, which can last over 1 hour, is very relaxing and offers a quiet time for meditation.  Most importantly, the approach taken to healthy looking skin at Lumina is from the inside-out and has greatly improved my overall sense of well-being.

"Within two weeks, people told me I looked rested. Then they asked why I looked so good...had I changed my hair or something? Finally, I had girlfriends suspect that if I looked so young, it must be because I had a secret lover. My secret is that I look 10 years younger because of your doctors' skills with acupuncture needles. It does not hurt and I always fall asleep during treatments."

- Beverly, 46, Lawyer, Ottawa

"Initially, I began my acupuncture treatments with the hope of eliminating some of my wrinkles as well as enhancing my skin tone. after a few treatments, not only was there significant improvements in my facial appearance but I felt better overall and I had more energy. I received comments from family and friends how energized and glowing I looked. I am convinced that with a combination of acupuncture treatments, exercise, good nutrition and rest that you can achieve optimal health and a younger looking face."

- Suzanne, Teacher, Ottawa

"When I first met with your doctor I was hesitant to believe that anything but facial surgery could improve the lines and sagging in my face and neck. I had already spent a great deal of money on other therapies that failed miserably. What made me decide to go back after my initial consultation was the holistic approach to the process. The doctor immediately identified that I suffered from insomnia and that much of my premature aging was due to that problem. Each time I went to a session, I learned something new about how to deal with my health in general. The early sessions brought a result I had not anticipated. With the combination of Chinese herbs, acupuncture treatment and education on the body-mind connection, I was able to sleep though an entire night for the first time in some 20 years.

After my sixth acufacial treatment I began to notice marked improvements in my face. At about the same time I began to get comments from people that I looked fresh and alive. Steadily I could see the lines diminishing, particularly around my eyes and on my forehead. I have now had 12 sessions and over the past week or so I have received compliment after compliment about how great I look, many of them from male acquaintances. One woman asked if I had had a face lift because the lines that she used to see under my eyes were no longer there. And most recently I was asked out by a very attractive 22 year old university man (I am 47 years old)! I am so pleased with the changes in my skin and equally pleased with the energy and vitality that I feel inside. I would highly recommend these treatments to anyone. Your doctor's expertise, gentle guidance, understanding and genuine concern for his patients' well-being are outstanding! Thank you for changing my life!"

"Like most people, I had believed that only by going under the knife can we fight the signs of aging. I went to see your doctor out of curiosity and also from the hope that my skin which was getting thin and dry with a dull colour would improve by the cosmetic acupuncture. I was feeling the effects of all my 60 plus years and found myself frequently thinking about retirement.

The effect of the sessions was building gradually. In a subtle way, I began to feel more youthful, have a more positive attitude and more energy. I stopped thinking about immediate retirement and postponed it to some undefined date in the future. Gradually the colour, tone and texture of my skin began to improve, and wrinkles began to "fill in". My wrinkles have definitely been reduced, and what I like most is the wonderful new glow on my skin which I haven't seen for years, if ever before. I look forward to many more sessions to come."

- Tara, Ottawa

"It begins with your friends and family saying how great you look! Then one day you too notice how your skin has tightened, gotten softer and even has less lines! That's not all, the Wizardry of the treatments continues with you feeling more physically balanced and healthy. What more could you ask for? 'A younger face and a healthier body?'"

- Terry, 49, Financial Advisor, Ottawa

"I am very pleased with the results of my treatments using acupuncture to rejuvenate my face. The sagging, fine lines and puffiness under the eyes have all disappeared or been greatly improved and all without painful surgery. Also through acupuncture, we've been able to remove a build up of overall body cellulite, which accumulates in aging. The treatments are effective, virtually painless and can be maintained with a few monthly visits. But the best result of having these treatments is that it improved my overall health. My friends are telling me that I look wonderful and glowing, which is what good health reflects."

"This has been my experience… for which I am so very, very grateful and thankful. I am truly honoured to have met you and received your holistic healing. Your connection with me, his vast medical knowledge and guidance throughout my healing process have exceeded my expectations and have become life-changing for me. I have regained my sense of self, strength, health and beauty. And with his guidance I have an appreciation of my past and increased confidence for my future. Your fantastic ability to read my eyes (as if they were the mirror of my soul), facial lines, complexion, tongue and posture is simply amazing. Your doctor has been able to locate and help me interpret (or seek clarity for) layers of past and even recent experiences. (For example: identifying pain, lost love, fears, strength of character, abuse, etc.) His connection with me, the treatments, have brought forth a sense of well-being, optimism and control over my future. His holistic method seeks to understand and heal the whole person. His knowledge of naturopathy, beauty products, supplements and acupuncture have had an immediate impact leading to improved health. The technique used on my jaw and gums have had an immediate desired effect. My interest in Chinese Traditional healing and acupuncture led me to you as I sought help in balancing my energy, releasing stress and learning how to better take care of myself and my skin. What I have discovered is quite simply what I was hoping to find but at the same time it has surpassed my expectations. I truly did not believe such a doctor existed. I have been given the essential tools to move forward, I have let go of unpleasant experiences of my past and as a result of my sessions and supplements I am a new, younger, more vibrant and optimistic me. I look and feel at least 10 years younger. More importantly, I feel and believe that it was by having connected with you and during the initial session with the facial reading that opened the doors to all this fantastic healing. Bringing balance. My experience has been incredible."

With the Anti-Cellulite treatment package, I started to see (and feel) differences as early as the 5th treatment.  My skin felt smoother and more firm.  I also received compliments from friends and colleagues on how fit & healthy I seemed.

- Joanne, 40, Biologist, Chelsea

After 7 treatments, I knew that acupuncture facial anti-aging was working for me.  After my 14th treatment I was fully satisfied.  I am 55 years old and look like 45.  I am especially pleased with my neck and cheek areas. Great for boosting your confidence, and no downtime since I am self-employed.  I absolutely recommend facial rejuvenation acupuncture. Thank you Lumina!

- Louise, 56, Esthetic Owner, Aylmer QC

I am 51 years old & started to show signs of that.  I took 12 sessions and I have noticed much difference and so have my friends and family.  I'm quite impressed with the results of the facial package.  I also wanted to mention how much I enjoy your all-natural facial products, right from the soap to the moisturizing creams.  I have introduced these products to my family and friends.
