You Really Don’t Have Anything to Lose! Just the Pain!

Mankato Acupuncture Clinic

“My name is Juli and I’m 50 years old. I received a postcard from Mankato Acupuncture Clinic in January 2012 announcing her Open House. I couldn’t go that evening but it gave me the push I needed to call for an appointment.

I was having a lot of shoulder pain and wasn’t sleeping at night. Stephanie made me feel very comfortable. After we visited a bit I had no fear to move forward to have her needle me. Stephanie is an awesome listener and tries to address any and all issues you have going on. Being needled is NOT painful. In fact, it is so relaxing that if you don’t take a nap, that would be unusual.

Not only did my shoulder pain disappear, but many, many, many other aches and pains and medical issues improved. I’ve also had Chron’s for 38 years and acupuncture helps me stay in remission. I have never felt this good in my 38 years with this disease! Six years ago my knees were so bad it hurt to bend, exercise, bike or kneel. It really put a hamper on my active lifestyle. I was even recommended to have surgery but because of acupuncture, I didn’t need to have that. I run, bike, do yoga, garden and am very active. If my knees start to hurt, I see Stephanie and am good to go again.

I would recommend Stephanie Hylla and acupuncture for whatever ails you. You really don’t have anything to lose! Just the pain!”
