Patient Testimonials

Amira,
I wanted to write a note to tell you – and everybody who also needs some pain relief, as I did - just how wonderful, terrific and magical Michael’s handiwork is.  I came into your clinic with a severe pain in my shoulder blade, severe pain in my calf, and severe pain in my neck: I can’t believe I was such a mess!)
After Michael worked on me I felt much better, but was still aware that things were not right.  I went to the gym the next day, warmed up and exercised and further loosened everything up. And it was then that I knew what Michael had done for me.  All the pain was gone!  I can’t say enough about what he did for me.  And I’m so glad you have added him to your clinic.  I will certainly be back for a followup visit.
Best wishes to all of you for the beautiful work you are doing.

I was referred to Amira by my doctor because I was having a lot of trouble with vertigo. I was unable to lie on my back and my left side. I couldn’t even look up without going into a vertigo spin. It was really affecting my daily life, I was having trouble concentrating. I always felt kind of dizzy. I refer to it as even ‘swimmy’. I just felt out of kilter. I started seeing Amira and she started working on the muscles of my neck area. Now I can lie on my back, I can lie on my left side, I can look up and there’s no vertigo. Prior to that, I had been dealing with this for well over a year. Within 4 or 5 visits the vertigo was taken care of. I would recommend coming to Amira for this, and I know I’m going to get a lot of other benefits as well, because now we’re starting to work on other areas that are very tight and deal with posture, all those things that cause headaches, and dizziness, and other problems. I’m very happy I came here. I would recommend it highly to anyone who’s having problems such as this. From Lynette
I wish I’d found Amira 20 years ago when I began the search for healing from chronic muscle spasms. These spasms significantly reduced my ability to work and enjoy life. Amira was the first practitioner to identify the root cause of my problem, and she did so at my first visit. Amira is a highly skilled physical therapist and a very caring individual. She quickly brought relief and ult imately release from 20 years of pain. I will be forever grateful. From Susan Manney, Ann Arbor, MI
Amira was able to locate and identify the source of my chronic hip pain.I am still a work in progress but my pain is receding, my strength returning, and my range of motion increasing. I can’t wait until my next visit. From Claudia Burns, Ann Arbor, MI
My son Magnus was diagnosed with Torticollis at six weeks old. He could not turn his head to his right and the left side of his head was becoming flattened. Magnus was irritable and uncomfortable from the pain of his neck. Instead of traditional Physical Therapy our family practitioner referred us to Amira for Cranial Sacral Therapy. We began therapy with Amira when Magnus was only eight weeks old. I was so nervous because I did not know what to expect. She was so calming and has such a gentle touch that Magnus fell asleep during the therapy. After the first session Magnus was able to turn his head to the right and after a few weeks of therapy he had almost complete movement in his neck. At six months old Magnus is meeting all the milestones and is a healthy happy baby. The Cranial Sacral Therapy was so gentle and worked quickly. We are so grateful for Amira and her calming, healing touch. From Daina & Magnus Fuson Ann Arbor, MI
I’ve had pain in my upper back and left side shoulder for four years. It became constant pain limiting even basic functions. Since treatment, the constant pain has been relieved and I can do things I couldn’t before. I can function without pain and do the things I love like running and playing violin again. I am so thankful for what this therapy has done for me. From Katerina Viitala
Thank you so much, Amira, for discovering Katerina’s source of pain. That was half the battle for her, improving her mental state. We appreciate the time and effort you gave to make her pain free after so many years and getting her back on track! This is going to become a family affair! From ~Pam Viitala
If you need physical therapy for any reason, this is the ONLY place you should go. It is a privately owned physical therapy clinic. I’ve had PT for the past 14 years and of the numerous PTs I’ve seen, this one is the best. They treat any number of ailments and have an extensive background of knowledge and experience. And the Healing Hands Team are the nicest and warmest people to have work on your hurt areas. They make you feel like you are in their home. The therapy room is very comfortable. I just love it. With many years of experience in a broad spectrum of healing techniques (including craniosacral therapy, trauma healing, and traditional physical therapy) they distinguish themselves with highly professional and effective customization of treatment. I have musculoskeletal disease and fibromyalgia and it’s getting worse as I get older. The therapy I get there is extremely beneficial to my body and mind. I wish I had been going there for PT for the last 14 years. My pain might not have gotten as bad as it has. I can’t praise this business enough. They are good enough that the travel time from anywhere to see them is WORTH IT. From Sandy R.
Amira,
Thank you for helping me get rid of a mysterious pain that has kept me from being able to sleep without pain relievers for 9 months. After my third visit with you I finally had a whole night’s sleep without pain reliever and I woke up without pain for the first time in 9 months.
It seemed like a miracle, so I keep thinking of you as a “miracle worker”.
I have consulted many doctors without results. Nobody has had an answer for a pain that would start at the beginning of deep sleep, wake me up with a strong jolt, pain in the abdomen radiating down with cramps in both legs. I would wake up every 2 hours, walk around for 15 minutes,
take a pain reliever, and go back to sleep only to wake up again after 2 hours and repeat the same pattern.
At times I even began to question my own sanity, wasn’t it for the fact that the pattern was consistent. But you solved the problem and seemed to know exactly what was wrong. I had my first whole night’s sleep in 9 months. No abdominal pain and the cramps in the legs are slowly disappearing..
Thank you so much,
Birgit From Birgit
