Marjon Faivre
“Before I became an acupuncturist, I was a patient of acupuncture amazed with the results acupuncture brought me after years of the wear and tear on my body from competitive sports. With an orthopedic surgeon for a father and a nurse for a mother, I’d always had an interest in the healing arts. You could say I grew up in medicine, and when I began to think about a lifelong career, that background coupled with my own experience with acupuncture, drew me toward Traditional Chinese Medicine.”
Sarah Ogrizovich
“My first experience with acupuncture took place in 1993 when I injured my knee. I was in a great deal of pain and unable to put weight on my knee. The injury, however, was not severe enough for surgery. A friend suggested acupuncture and after several treatments, I completely recovered. The quick recovery left a lasting impression on me and I began turning to acupuncture for other ailments that arose in my life.”
