"My husband used OndaMed treatment to help him quit smoking. He received 5-7 treatments and was able to quit smoking. He used to smoke for 30+ years 15-20 cigarettes a day. After this treatment he experienced minimal discomfort related to withdraw symptoms. His psychological dependence on nicotine was reduced after the first 3-4 treatments, but he did have some difficulties adjusting to changes in social settings, but it was manageable. He told me that he didn't have any urge to smoke even when he was driving the car with the person smoking. His personality seems to be changed, too- always being a very high-strung person with type A+ personality, he became much calmer, less irritable, and more content. During the treatment with OndaMed he followed diet prescribed by Dr. Kipnis and lost 10 lbs.
Overall, it has been a great experience for him with great results! We are very grateful to Dr. Kipnis suggesting and administering this treatment."

I have been having back pain for about four years. I have done medication, physical therapy, and have seen a chiropractor, but nothing seemed to relieve my pain until I came here and had acupuncture. My pain being relieved everyday with every visit. On my first visit I was really suspicious if acupuncture worked. I worried it would hurt too much and that it might not help me. Now with experience it is completely worth it. Acupuncture does not hurt, sometimes I don’t even feel the needles. Dr. Dekhtyar is very knowledgeable and experienced in what he does. He can feel where the problems are even without you saying anything. The atmosphere is very calm and comforting which helps a lot. So if you are tired of not being able to relieve any of your symptoms with the other medical means, I then recommend acupuncture. It is truly the best treatment that I have gone through. Its worth everything.

Sincerely grateful,

My story started 14 years ago, when I was involved in an auto accident. A couple days later, I started feeling excruciating pain in my neck and right shoulder. I went to my primary care physician, and after an x-ray and MRI of neck and upper back I was diagnosed with bulged C4-C5 and C5-C6 discs.

From that day I went through numerous doctors. I frequented MD's, chiropractors, neurosurgeons, and Chinese alternative medicine doctors. My pain never left me, not even for a single day. My right arm was always in pain with icy fingers, numbness and tingling. I went through physical therapy, neck extensions, chiropractic adjustments, trigger point shots, and heavy medicine. Five years ago I was introduces to Dr. Lev Kipnis. By that time I was suffering from hearing problem in my right ear, constant neck pain, headache, loss of my right arm strength, and depression.

Dr. Kipnis didn't promise me any miracles or a fast recovery but he said he wanted to help me. The first year my treatment was very intensive (3 times/wk). The results of my treatments were unstable; I was still taking painkillers on a daily basis. Then, gradually, I started feeling a little bit better; fewer headaches, more arm length, less tingling and icy fingers. It took me almost 4 years to get considerable relief from the pain. I'm no longer taking any painkillers, nor am I a candidate for a surgery anymore. Thanks to Dr. Kipnis I can work, exercise, dance, continue my education, take care of my family and myself, and enjoy life. I don't feel disabled by my pain, and feel confident, and well enough to succeed in my job."

I think that it’s really wonderful that we have a doctor like Dr. Vadim Dekhtyar. His high professionalism, intelligence, and empathy, but most importantly his individual approach to me and my problems helped quickly find the solutions to my problems that interfered with my everyday life. I came to him with high blood pressure, overweight, and with eating disorders. During my treatment course I learned a lot. With the help of hypnotherapy, acupuncture, and with a proper diet my blood pressure became normal, I learn to control my hunger, and eat right. Without much effort I lost 6 kg (13.2 lbs.) It was like a miracle. The most important thing is that the doctor does what he promised.
Once again, thank you, doctor, very much. Good luck.

"I have been struggling with trigeminal neuralgia for over 40 years. The last 10 years have been progressively getting worse. The attacks have been more frequent and stronger; medication was barely keeping the pain under control. I heard about ONDAMED and that it could help. I contacted Dr. Kipnis and started the treatment. After about 2 months my pain and attacks were gone. My medication has been reduced by 300 mg. Down to 500 mg. of tegratol. My experience has been a positive one so far."

Currently, I am seeing Dr. Vadim Dekhtyar, Licensed Acupuncturist. In the past, I have been to several sports medicine Doctors for shoulder flexibility with joint and neck tightness issues, which are being caused by my carpal tunnel pain. This led to many visits to Chiropractors for adjustments and weekly massage therapies. While there are benefits to the non-invasive procedures that the Chiropractors use, they produce only temporal relief (1-2 days following the massage therapy). I do prefer the longer lasting relief/pain management brought on by having Acupuncture treatments.

While these treatments do take longer to have, its effects felt, it is a much better solution for me because, when the pain from the carpal tunnel subsides, my neck and shoulder tension also goes way down along with it.

I would rather have a weekly Acupuncture treatment over weekly adjustment and massage therapy (which lasts only for a few days worth of relief).

Sincerely,
