After a freak accident and extensive surgery on my right foot I was left with CRPS, limited mobility and unable to walk any distance. For 2 years I had tried everything,,,,then I found miss Shelley. I am now walking 3 miles a day, and enjoying many of the activities I was unable to do after surgery. She is a true healer

Years ago I had seen Shelly with tendinitis in my arm so badly to the point I could not wrap my hand around the steering wheel of my car on the drive to her office in Plano. She treated me for only one hour and when I left I had movement back in my arm!! Fast forward 10 years later, I remembered her when my BF Jeffrey complained of chronic back pain even though he just had back surgery in May. We went to see Shelly, this time in Richardson. Since this was a chronic issue we went 2x a week for 5 weeks and now my Bf is completely pain free!!! In addition she treated him with cooked herbal drinks

Dr. Tsai is amazing - I didnt believed in Accupunture, nor its healing effects, until now. It amazes me how this really works - helps with ones experiencing Insomnia, allergies, and muscle strains. What interests me the most is that shes able to see your symptoms before mentioning, by looking at your tongue. I, now, go weekly- since she accepts medical insurance! Thank you doctor for helping me!
