Pain Management
In early 2009, I was diagnosed with severe carpal tunnel along with severe muscle and tissue damage in both hands and arms. At the same time, I was also diagnosed with Fibromyalgia derived from constant stress. The recommended resolution was to have surgery on both hands and take excessive medications to calm the Fibromyalgia. The meds put me in a mental realm I refused to tolerate and surgery on my wrist would be the absolute last option. There had to be a better way! I had previous experience with acupuncture and knew it worked. I needed an acupuncturist who had the experience to assist with the combination of issues I was dealing with. I found her at Acumedicine-Health.
have been working with Sheryl Hongsermeier since June 2009. I have not had surgery on either hand. The carpal tunnel is under control with regular treatments. The Fibromyalgia is controlled and maintained without taking prescription medications. A steady schedule of acupuncture assists in managing the stress and all other physical and emotional issues by keeping a balanced and flowing energy. Sheryl is an effective, gentle, loving and compassionate healer. I am grateful and appreciative to have an excellent and trustworthy acupuncturist, a true Doctor of Chinese Medicine, to successfully treat me with great accomplishment.

Pediatric Care
After my child suffered a traumatic brain injury, the journey to recovery felt impossible. We were told to expect significant limitations, but we sought out Sheryl’s expertise to explore every avenue for healing. The transition into acupuncture was the turning point we desperately needed for our son. Sheryl’s gentle approach was perfect for a pediatric patient, and the results have been nothing short of miraculous. His cognitive functions improved, his seizures decreased, and his overall neurological development began to flourish against all odds. Sheryl is not just a practitioner; she is a lifeline for families facing the unimaginable. Her compassion and deep clinical knowledge saved our child’s future. We are forever grateful for the renewed quality of life she provided through her dedicated care and eastern medicine expertise.

Stress Relief
I was receiving treatment from Sheryl for muscle spasms and neck pain. During the regular “how are the aches and pains” discussion that we have before each treatment, I mentioned that my shoulder had been hurting from playing tennis.
I have played tennis regularly for many years and when I played more often it tended to be more sore. I had treated the pain with large doses of acetaminophen and even tried a “horse pill” version called Naproxen that gave me unpleasant side effects. Sheryl recommended acupuncture as a way to release adhesions under my scapula that may have developed over the years and might be causing the discomfort. It took 4 or 5 sessions, but the post-tennis shoulder soreness went away.
have since played in “back-to-back” matches that would have made me very sore in the past without any discomfort.

Recovery & Healing
Several years ago, a torn meniscus left me in agony while waiting for a surgical date. Sheryl provided intensive treatment several times weekly, and remarkably, my knee healed naturally, allowing me to cancel the operation entirely. I successfully resumed my fitness habits and strengthened the surrounding muscles. Today, I feel fantastic!
I now maintain a monthly schedule for a body "tune-up" to ensure my system remains balanced. Every appointment is an opportunity to learn new wellness practices, such as specialized breathing and stretching. Sheryl’s deep expertise and genuine dedication to her patients make her a standout practitioner in Chinese medicine. Acupuncture has transitioned from a crisis solution to a vital part of my long-term health strategy.

Digestive Wellness
I contacted Sheryl after two surgeries and in the process of chemotherapy. Side effects from the chemo were beginning to occur. I was warned that if this became advanced I would need to stop the chemotherapy.
Sheryl got me through this and I completed the course. I have continued acupuncture for nearly six years. I no longer need the allergy medicine that I used daily. I do not have constant sinus problems and headaches.

General Accupuncture
Sheryl is amazing. I began seeing her about two years ago on the recommendation of my neighbor. I was having trouble with insomnia. She quickly identified my issues and not only did I start sleeping again, but she also helped me to become calmer and more focused generally. I continue to see her on a regular basis. Sheryl has had such a positive impact on my life and well-being.
