“As a believer in integrating body, mind, and spirit, it has been nice to find such a talented, professional group of health practitioners networking together to help me continue this process. Having a community of people dedicated to improve the health and well-being of one’s life is a main tenet of my life coaching practice.  I started with Dr. Kristin Shiver, whose expertise encouraged me to work with acupuncture and personal training, which then led me to Chi Kung and hot stone massage therapy. It was amazing how the process of utilizing all of the above was so transforming. I found that combining all the methodologies created a faster healing process as well as truly being enjoyable. I felt like I was a member of a caring community all focused on my well-being. How great is that? The best part now is that they all are under one roof in their beautiful new building.”

“Towards the end of 2007, I started to experience a lot of pain and discomfort associated with IBS. I spent a lot of time in the bathroom and a lot of time at the doctor’s office. My quality of life changed dramatically. I had no appetite, lost weight, and suffered through all of the problems associated with IBS. Doctors and nutritionists attempted to solve my problem, but with no success. I took advice from a friend and tried acupuncture with Akemi Meeks Borjas. Over a relatively short amount of time, my pain virtually disappeared, as well as the discomfort and malaise. Most importantly, I was happy and free from suffering. Today, I still suffer from flare ups of IBS, but my body is healthier and capable of getting me through those rare occasions. I can’t thank Akemi enough for saving me.”

“Sifu Anthony, I forgot to tell you that for 8 years I have been having my resting blood glucose measured every 3 months as it is consistently over 100, sometimes approaching 115, which is borderline diabetic.  My physician has been threatening me with the need for medication.  I started practicing Cosmos Chi Kung consistently when I started taking classes with you in January.  For the first time in 8 years and 24 blood tests, my level was normal two weeks ago! My scalp psoriasis also disappeared and I have not picked at or chewed my nails once since January.  This has been a lifelong habit that has relented previously only when I am on vacation.”

“I can now usually walk down a flight of stairs without holding a banister and I do it one foot and then the other instead of one-step, one-step, etc.  I have not been able to do that for over 20 years.  Thank you [Sifu Anthony]!”
