My goals are to manage stress, lose weight and have balance. After just one full treatment I noticed I had lost 3 lbs and kept it off. After the next treatment I lost another 2 lbs. so far after 3 session I have successfully kept the 5 lbs

I went to the doctor only to receive pain medication. 6 weeks later, still having pain went back to the doctor in which he told me I needed physical therapy. Physical Therapy didn’t work, here it is October and still in pain. I found the 12 Meridians Acupuncture in Columbus, Ohio and made an appointment. By this time I was still skeptic about

Immediately I felt calm when she put one of the needles in a certain point, but after a few treatments, it lasted longer. I look forward to treatments and am very thankful to be calm at home with my family. I no longer feel as stressed out about things that I did before. I

I wasn’t sleeping well, I was so self-conscious about my face that I didn’t want to leave the house. Just 3 weeks later, I now feel better than any time I can remember. I have the energy to do activities. My skin is healing well. My great thanks to Brigitta Moskova, Acupuncturist.”

“As an avid extreme sportiest, for most of my Life I have experienced backpain, breaks and other chronic pain. I thought I would just have to live with it. Now after only a few sessions with Brigitta I am sleeping better, my pain is more manageable and I have increased flexibility of motion. Acupuncture has given me a renewed quality of Life.”

“I injured my neck at work. As a nurse I rarely ember to take time out for myself. I woke the next morning with a stiff neck and called Brigitta for a session. I experienced an immediate instant relief of over 30% and complete 100%relief after the next day’s session. Combining white flower oil and cupping did the trick.”

She was amazing at making me feel comfortable and relaxed with my first experience and every session with her has yielded wonderful results.Her extensive knowledge, expertise, and passion for healing is a skill set not many can claim but Brigitta most definitely does!”

Before my acupuncture treatments, it hurt when I walked and I had to bend forward when I walked! Now, after a month of treatments, I can walk straight up and without any pain!! Also, my sciatica in my leg is healed.

I never have had acupuncture done before and was very new to it all, but was recommended by my doctor. After looking at Brigitta’s website I gave it a try and am very thankful I did. Not only did the acupuncture help my pain immensely, but the office and overall experience was very positive. Brigitta

Facial Rejuvenation with Cosmetic Acupuncture
There are countless articles and research papers on the benefits of acupuncture, but did you know that it can also be used to combat the signs of aging? A natural alternative to surgery or Botox, facial acupuncture is merely an extension of traditional acupuncture and Chinese medicine philosophy.
Unlike an injection of Botox or some other filler, facial acupuncture addresses not just the signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles but it also helps to restore your skin’s overall health. Now, you might be worried about acupuncture needles placed in your face, but acupuncture is safe and effective and is recognized by the World Health Organization and there are established guidelines for practice just like any other health profession. Practitioners are also licensed by their state’s department of health so you can be confident that you are in good hands. continue reading
