Rachal E. Lohr-Dean, L.Ac.

Rachal Lohr-Dean is an amazing acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner! She is highly skilled at treating complicated and chronic conditions.

I have had chronic food sensitivities and intestinal problems ever since I came down with a severe case of mononucleosis when I was sixteen (I am now 32 yrs old). In addition, I was recently diagnosed with Lyme disease and due to this condition I was having constant joint and back pain.
When I went to Rachal for the first time, my low back was inflamed to the point that I couldn't walk. After my first two acupuncture sessions, my back inflammation totally subsided. Rachal proceeded to prescribe me a customized formula of Chinese herbs. These herbs have been a miracle!!! The herbs have healed my digestive system and cured me of my chronic constipation. Within a month and a half of taking the herbs, I lost 12 pounds without exercise! Also, because of both the acupuncture sessions and the herbs, my energy has dramatically improved and my severe premenstrual symptoms (stabbing cramps, feverishness, painfully swollen breasts) have been greatly reduced. Rachal explained to me that the inflammation in my body from my ailments was causing me to gain weight and retain it. The herbs addressed the root cause of the inflammation and then the weight came off like water and stayed off. Likewise, the herbs have alleviated my chronic joint and low back pain.
