    A cancer diagnosis, no matter what the stage is shocking. As soon as I received the first chemo infusion treatment, I realized the quality of my life, no matter how long it would be, had been drastically compromised. After six months of reeling from the stunning effects of chemo, with none of them can slowing the cancer growth, but all of them impacting my body as the warnings of side effects became reality, Through genomic testing, it was determined that my body is resistant to chemo drugs. There have been many other side effects of radiation and several surgical procedures, in addition to the mastectomy. My precious friend told me I should try acupuncture. I visited with Dr. Li, and found that his training and experience include pathology, and oncology, not only from China, but also in the United States. Dr. Li explained the procedure and didn’t flinch or show any shock at the way I looked, the hesitation in my speech when I forgot words or thoughts. After several treatments, I experienced a reduction in headaches, much clearer focus and orientation and as time passed, the sensitivity returned to my hands and feet, and my hair began to grow back healthier than it had been before. I have lost the vision in one eye and 50% in the other, but Dr. Li has stepped up the procedures and reduced the pain and inflammation. The cancer has moved to the skin like a blanket—and Dr. Li stepped up again with expanded locations. Throughout the three-year journey, Dr. Li has skillfully and with wisdom, performed the acupuncture procedures necessary to restore healthy cells and allow my whole body’s strength and immune system to increase its ability to fight and continue this journey. Every challenge that I face, he addresses with care and consistence, always encouraging me not to give up the fight and maintain mental fortitude. My many other doctors and specialists that have provided care for me, have initially been surprised and doubtful of the benefits of acupuncture. Now, after three years, and them fully aware of my prognosis, they, without exception, send Dr. Li their regards and express a greater appreciation for acupuncture and its positive results, not only with cancer, but with the health of my whole body. They are always surprised that I am still working (only took off 10 days when I had the mastectomy), still exercising and walking, and continuing to believe in miracles. God has answered my prayers for wisdom, knowledge and understanding continually, and especially through Dr. Li.

    For almost 3 years I’ve had back pain due to a herniated disk. I had to take 2 steroid shots to my lower back followed by physical therapy for 3 months. In the end, I don’t know if the physical therapy worked or it was simply the steroid shot that I received. However, In the last couple of months I started to get the pain again, but this time it was worse than ever before. To the point where I could not even get out of bed or drive for more than 30 minutes before my back would start aching with pain. I had no idea what my next step would be? Did I need to get the second session of steroid shots? continue taking pain medication on a daily basis to help ease the pain? I never considered acupuncture until one day my wife suggested it. She was kind enough to find this location and boy am I glad I came here. Dr. Henry Li has not only found a way to completely eliminate the pain after only having 4 sessions. He is extremely knowledgeable about what he does and says. He has a very simple and friendly way of explaining how the human body functions and how one should care and make your health a top priority. I can honestly say choosing acupuncture to help reduce the pain was the best decision I have ever made. His procedures are fast, simple and, you don’t feel any type of pain during the procedure. Dr. Li has not only helped me restore my energy back but has returned hope into my life. At 36 yrs. old I dreaded the idea that I would have to undergo back surgery. I hope that no one ever has to endure the back pain that I’ve had in the past. Thanks for everything you do Dr. Li. E. Huerta

    Dr. Henry Li has changed my life. After suffering from chronic lower-back pain, enduring many expensive spinal injections that had no effect on me whatsoever, and having flashes of intense pain in my left buttock area, I decided to try acupuncture. The only thing I knew about acupuncture was that it involved needles, and many years ago my family took my mother-in-law to Hawaii to find a doctor who would give her acupuncture treatments. I realized that I could not continue feeling the way that I did; pain was not going to control my life. So what did I do? I went to the internet and found Dr. Li, whose office is in Colleyville, TX. Dr. Li, a PhD, is a licensed acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist who practices alternative medicine. A kind, caring, personable doctor, he has been treating me for about 6 months. He mainly works on my back, but he has also treated other areas of my body. Before Dr. Li came into my life, I spent a lot of time in bed and didn’t feel like doing much physical activity. Now I walk about 4 miles, five days a week, work in my yard, have started sewing again, and feel stronger and happier. I highly recommend Dr. Henry Li: Miracles happen in his office every day! If you are experiencing chronic pain, depression, or insomnia (and there are many other conditions he can help you with), call Dr. Henry Li; he will change your life too. Janet K.

    I made an appointment with Dr. Li to see if he could help with the circulation, pain, and swelling in my legs and feet because western medicine was not helping me. In addition, I’ve had terrible menstrual cramps and bladder issues for years. I was tired of taking medication that did not help my condition, which caused vicious side effects. So, I set up an appointment with Dr. Li. I was very worried and stressed out about my legs and feet the day I saw Dr. Li for my first appointment. After an examination, Dr. Li gave me an acupuncture treatment. I was desperate for help. I opened my heart and mind to accept alternative medicine. I could not believe the healing power of the needles sticking out of my legs and feet. Afterwards, I felt instant relief, in my legs and feet, and my skin color began to change back to its original state. The pain levels and swelling in my legs decreased, and my self-esteem and optimism about life has continued to increase. Dr. Li and his amazing staff are kind and professional, which creates a peaceful healing environment. Words cannot express how much I appreciate Dr. Li for his remarkable acupuncture services. Much Gratitude Always, Jan.

    I have been suffering with back and leg pain for over a year. I have been to regular doctors, chiropractors in various areas of expertise and have spent thousands of dollars seeking relief. Dr. Li was recommended to me by my sister in law and I made an appointment not understanding about the benefits of acupuncture medicine, only hoping. In the three weeks I have been seeing Dr. Li, he has brought me back to living again almost pain free. I had far to go and still need to continue, but I am so amazed at the results that I am posting my very first review because I hope anyone experiencing severe pain and not getting better will give Dr. Li a try. Even when I get pain free, I am going to continue to have at least once a week to twice a month visits to keep from having the pain return. Dr. Li has spent so much time helping me to understand what has caused this issue and how to go forward to keep from having this problem reoccur. Everything is natural, no drugs. I am so thrilled. Thank you, Dr. Li.

    What a difference Dr. Li has made in my life! I had suffered from severe lower back pain for many years because of severe disc degeneration in the lower lumbar area. I was referred to a back pain specialist who prescribed a steroid pain medication at first, then subsequently a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAI) medication. The medications did help with the pain, but after several months of taking daily doses, I developed both gastritis and colitis. I had also been taking an anti-depressant medication for a few years to help with depression and anxiety. I did not want to be on these medications for the rest of my life! My primary care physician suggested that I go see Dr. Li, since many of her patients had reported dramatic improvements with their medical issues as a result of Dr. Li's acupuncture treatments. Dr. Li conducted a comprehensive assessment and evaluation, explained how acupuncture works and began treating me right away. Within just a month of weekly visits, I was able to start tapering off both the back pain medication and the anti-depressant. Within another couple of months, I was able to get off both medications completely! I have been getting weekly treatments from Dr. Li for almost a year now, am completely pain-free, with no need for medication, and haven't felt this great in many years! Dr. Li is also treating my alopecia areata condition by stimulating the hair follicles around a few bald spots on my scalp and the hair is growing back at a miraculous rate! Dr. Li is such a calm, caring, understanding, knowledgeable, and positive person and I am living proof that his treatments are painless, safe, effective and life-changing!

    I am sooo glad I found Dr. Li because he has helped me with the following issues: lower back pain, environmental allergies, cracked skin on my hands, plantar fasciitis, and wrist and knee pain over the past 2 years. I began my journey with Dr. Li because I was experiencing acute lower back pain as a result of raking leaves for many hours. I didn't want to go to a western doctor because I knew they would prescribe muscle relaxers and pain medication. So, I went to Dr. Li who treated me with acupuncture and cupping. I was pain free within 2 months. I had gone to an experienced dermatologist a few years ago about my hands but was given a couple of prescriptions for creams that cost $500 a month which I could not afford. Since I had success with my lower back pain, I thought Dr. Li might be able to help with my hands which cracked, bled and itched depending on the weather for the past 12 years. I am glad to report that my hands look normal after treating them off and on for the past 1 1/2 years. I was diagnosed with environmental allergies when I was 5 yrs old and now I am 56. Dr. Li has treated my allergies for the past 1 1/2 years with acupuncture and Chinese herbs and now they are now stable. I have learned that long term weaknesses in our immune system usually take a while for the immune system to gain strength so it can overcome the maladies in our bodies. Dr. Li derives great fulfillment when he hears that his patient's condition has improved. The desire to help his patients is the fuel that powers his motivation. You feel you are not in this alone that his patient's victories are his victories. I am so glad I found Dr. Li because I have been able to overcome long term health issues without the use of pharmaceuticals. I trust him so much that my wife and daughter go to him for treatment when an issue arises. Many of the issues Dr. Li has helped me overcome most people would just live with them and think that is part of aging. Now I am optimistic and have adopted the motto, "I am getting better not older"

    I will be approaching my one-year anniversary of treatment with Dr. Li. I started acupuncture with Dr. Li in October 2015 after my first chemo treatment for early stage breast cancer. I had heard from my support group that I should seek acupuncture to help with side effects I was having. I felt uncomfortable, sick and dealing with hormonal changes. I have to say, my treatment went a lot better mentally and physically after I started my acupuncture treatments. The nerve pain, infection prevention, mental state and nausea were well managed and under control as I was receiving acupuncture treatments two to three times a week during the weeks after each chemo round. My hair is also coming back strong and healthy as the type of chemo drug given to me is known to slow hair growth or cause permanent hair loss. Now my quality of life has improved greatly after my cancer treatment and acupuncture care with Dr. Li. I also recently experienced a minor battle with lymphadema and Dr. Li was there again to help manage my circulation and reduce the inflammation. I continue to see Dr Li to improve any lingering symptoms and help me maintain a healthier quality of life. I highly recommend acupuncture with Dr. Li and I feel I'm in great hands as he’s an M.D. from Changchun University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in China and has a Ph.D. in Pathology from The Medical School of Tohoku University in Japan. Thank you Dr. Li!

    I highly recommend Dr. Li for everything! I came to see Dr. Li for my digestive issues that I had been having for over 4 years and constant anxiety that had taken over my life. I had visited many doctors and was diagnosed with onset ulcerative colitis. I changed my diet and tried all different types of natural supplements to manage the pain, but nothing was helping and the anxiety was spiraling out of control. I was having difficulty running my own business, I was terrified of eating anything because of the possibility of a flare and the panic attacks throughout the day. After my first session with Dr. Li, I was completely shocked at how I felt the next few days. I was calm and was able to eat again without throwing up or running to the bathroom with diarrhea. I finally felt like my body was holding onto the nutrients and I was able to eat larger meals without restricting the types of food I had previously avoided because of the flares. I felt better after each visit and I am really surprised how good I feel after three months. I will continue to see Dr. Li to maintain this and will also use him for other issue in the future. He was able to use acupuncture to help with the discomfort, nausea and fatigue I get each month during my menstrual cycle. He was also able to work on a cold I had and I was able to get over it in one day! I am very thankful for finding Dr. Li and discovering the uses and benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Thank you, Dr. Li, for giving me my life back!

    Although I had tried acupuncture (with good results) before, I began going to Dr. Li approximately two years ago for shoulder and hip pain. Unfortunately, orthopedic doctors would only recommend cortisone shots which only helped temporarily (if at all). After only one session with Dr. Li, I was much improved. After a few sessions of traditional acupuncture, I asked him about cupping. (My previous acunpuncturist had used cupping.) He agreed, and the cupping accelerated the healing process even more. Today I feel great, and can even swing a golf club again! Oh, and Dr. Li also treated my allergies as well. :)

    “After my first treatment with Dr. Li I felt immediate relief from my anxiety as a surge of relaxation rushed through my body, leaving me feeling less anxious for days. I continued treatment twice a week for about three months and before I knew it I was on my way to no longer needing all of the prescriptions I was taking for relief from my anxiety and depression. I soon began to feel genuinely happy, more energized and motivated, and could relax my body so I was not constantly tense. I slowly but surely gained my life back.”
