"SHE SAVED MY LIFE"
Anne Arundel County resident Beth R. had been experiencing the painful side effects of Peripheral Neuropathy. “My feet and legs were extremely painful and my doctor told me there was nothing they could do. That I would have to take Gabapentin for the rest of my life.” Then she met Anne Arundel County's very own Dr. Jinell Smithmyer.
Peripheral Neuropathy is the pain,
discomfort and numbness caused by nerve damage of the peripheral nervous system. Beth explained that daily tasks like opening doors and using the bathroom were overwhelmingly painful. “How can you live for the next 30 years when you don't even want to get out of bed to do simple things?”
She was experiencing the burning, numbness, tingling and sharp pains that those suffering with neuropathy often describe. “The way that I would describe it, it's equivalent to walking on glass.” Beth hadn't worn socks in five years and
was wearing shoes two sizes too big so that nothing would ‘touch' her feet.
Unfortunately Beth’s story is all too familiar for the over 3 million people in the U.S. suffering from
Peripheral Neuropathy.
If you're unfortunate enough to be facing the same disheartening prognosis you're likely not sleeping at night because of the burning in your feet. You have difficulty
walking, shopping or doing any activity for more than 30 minutes because of the pain. You're struggling with balance and living in fear that you might fall. Your doctor told you to ‘just live with the pain' and you're taking medications that aren't working or have uncomfortable side effects.
Fortunately, four months ago Beth read
an article about Dr. Jinell Smithmyer and the work she was doing to treat those suffering from Peripheral Neuropathy, without invasive surgeries or medications.
Dr. Smithmyer, founder of Chesapeake Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine in Odenton, MD, is using the time tested science of Acupuncture and a technology originally developed by NASA that assists in increasing blood flow and expediting recovery and healing to treat this debilitating disease.
“Now when I go to bed at night I don’t have those shooting pains. I don’t have that burning sensation. I don’t have
pain coming up my legs,” Beth enthusiastically describes life after receiving Dr. Smithmyer’s treatments.
“I can wear socks and shoes!”
Beth and her sister now enjoy morning walks together with their dogs, sometimes covering up to 5 miles a day.
“It’s life altering. As far as I’m concerned Dr. Smithmyer
saved my life!”
Dr. Smithmyer has been helping the
senior community for over seven years using the most cutting edge and innovative integrative medicine.
Specializing in chronic pain cases, specifically those deemed ‘hopeless' or ‘untreatable', she consistently generates
unparalleled results.
What was once a missing link in senior
healthcare is now easily accessible to the residents of Anne Arundel County.
If you've missed too many special moments with family because of pain or you've passed on doing the things you
once loved because you're afraid of falling, it's time to call Dr. Smithmyer and the staff at Chesapeake Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine.
It’s time you let your golden years
BE GOLDEN!
Dr. Smithmyer is now accepting new patients but only for a limited time. In an effort to protect her patients, both current and future, she has made the difficult decision to limit the number of patients
seen in her clinic. Only 12 new neuropathy patients will be accepted before the end of August so call 410-694-7217 now to schedule a consultation. Start getting relief today!
