Last Wednesday I was taking my daughter to an appointment and had a few hours to kill. I stopped in to this acupuncture place and loved it! I had acupuncture 3 years ago. I did 3 sessions and liked it, but it was expensive. The doctor didn't seem as interested in my overall health and specific areas I was working on, so it just fizzled out and I didn't go back.
I went back this morning for my second session today (I bought a 12 session package) and I am even more impressed with the two doctors there.
If you are interested in acupuncture, AK (applied kiniseology- muscle testing), cupping, meridian testing , chiropractic and more give them a call. What I love most of all is that my first session was only $65. The guy at the front desk said that the doctor will spend 1 1/2 - 2 1/2 hours on my first visit to check my height, weight and all the vitals. Then he hooked me up to this computer for this elaborate meridian testing. Its cool because he shows you where in your body that your Chi is low and needs acupuncture treatment. Then he goes over symptoms you have and what you are looking for from acupuncture. He does laser balancing, herbal acupuncture and puts these magnetic beads in your ears to help with energy. Dr Zhang really cares and takes his time with you. My second visit was 1 1/2 hours long. My previous experience with acupunture was 40 minutes long and no consultation and it was $100 a session. I didn't feel I got enough from it to keep going, although I did love how I felt after acupuncture- great energy for the next few days.
Here is the information if anyone is interested in calling him. He has a receptionist but many times he will answer the phone. Their names are Dr. Lei Zhang and Dr. Reza Hamati. They are both chiropractors and acupuncturists. Dr. Zhang came to america 15 years ago to teach acupucture at a school here in Dallas. Now he performs chiropractic and acupuncture full time in his own practice. They take insurance, but if you don't have it, its only $65 a visit and as low as $50 if you buy a package- thats what I did. When you go each time, they do multiple treatments, basically whatever your body needs. He did the AK, acupuncture, magnets, laser and cupping on my second visit. Plus a little acupressure on my neck and shoulders. What a deal!
They have two locations:
400 North Greenville Avenue, #9
Richardson, Texas 75081
(972) 238-8260
2411 Coit Road, #110
Plano, Texas 75075
(972) 769-7345
Tell them I sent you!!! I told Dr. Zhang I was going to tell all my clients and friends about him because I loved it there and I feel great! I have lost 3 pounds in 4 days after my last session. He did a few points for weight loss to aid me in losing some weight. Along with my hypnosis, I should be a rail soon! LOL The acupunture is for stimulating the organs and metabolism and hypnosis helps with behaviors to help with weight loss. Write me if you like with any questions or comments.

Maybe. I just finished my certification to become a Hypnotherapist/Hypnotist. I am now certified through the American Board of Hypnotherapy as a clinical hypnotherapist. I will be advertising Hypnosis at Massage by Design very soon. Hypnosis is a very powerful tool and used for many things such as simple relaxation, stress relief, depression and offers facilitation for a miriad of other issues one might want to work on. I will be offering hypnosis for weight control, pain relief and smoking cessation mostly. I have a few pounds to lose and I am finding hypnosis working for me like nothing else I have tried in the past. Its amazing. I didn't particularly like plain water before hypnosis and after my first session, I drink water constantly...and it tastes refreshing!
My training has taught me that my unconscious mind and imagination always want to please me. If I think of something (whether its for my good or not), my imagination will win. Will power does work in situations where bad habits have not formed themselves as routine behaviors. Will power will not work when an unconscious mind is struggling with a habit or behavior that does not work or help it live the fullest life possible. Funny take on that huh? It was my a ha moment in my hypnosis training when one of my test questions asked "When the imagination and willpower are in conflict a) the willpower will win b)neither will win c) the imagination will always win or d) confusion occurs which causes hypnosis". The answer is C- Imagination will always win. So that explains when in someones life they are struggling or confused over doing things they don't want to do and can't do what they need to do to help themselves. The answer...Hypnosis! It's creating a rapport between the conscious mind and unconscious mind. It has been so unbeliveable to automatically be doing the things that are best for my body and mind with regards to healthy nutrition/excercise that for the last year have struggled to will myself to do and since my hypnosis for weight control, I am doing it so effortlessly. Its really fun too! For me its a huge connection! I am consciously making the best choices for my body which has resulted in a greater fulfullment in almost every area of my life. It was through the hypnosis session I received, that suggestions were spoken to my unconscious mind and Wham my conscious self seamlessly exhibits. Our bodies are robots, a sort of remote control controlled by what is imagined and in our unconscious mind. Pretty cool stuff.
If you are interested in more about hypnosis, please feel free to write to me personally. My session rates for hypnosis will be determined shortly and posted on the website. I will be offering a Free consulation and demonstration of hypnosis for any of the clients of MBD within the next two weeks, again check the website for more information.
