Testimonial Highlight: Successful Recovery from Near-Death Chemo Aftereffects

"In Sept, ’08, I was diagnosed with Stage 4B tonsilar cancer. Treatment began at a major cancer center at the end of October. I underwent 33 radiation treatments and 6 days of chemo. My cancer was cured and I will always be thankful for that but the aftereffects of treatment left me completely debilitated. I was a shell of my former self. I had lost 50 pounds, and I had no strength, no ability to relate, no interest in relating or participating in life in anyway. I knew it would take time. However, my recovery was compromised by 4 aspiration pneumonias, three of which almost killed me.

My wife decided it was time for me to see Master Hou. I began seeing Master Hou twice weekly in June, ’09. I will admit that I was doubtful of this “alternative” approach to Western medicine but I’m no longer doubtful. I feel vigorous, alert, more interested in life and much, much stronger. I have made it 5 months now with no reoccurrence of aspiration pneumonia.

In addition, the range of motion in my neck and upper body was seriously compromised by the radiation. I suffered neck spasms so severe that my head was almost immobile. Master Hou has helped this significantly.

I have not eaten by mouth for more than a year due to the scar tissue caused by the radiation. With Master Hou’s help, I’m optimistic that I will regain at least partial functioning of these muscles.

Master Hou is a passionate and dedicated healer who also happens to have a great sense of humor. It is a pleasure working with him."
