Aaron was highly recommended to me by a friend after I had been struggling with chronic migraines and fertility issues as a result of PCOS for a little over two years. I had tried multiple medications for my migraines as well as nerve block injections and wasn't getting any relief. I had also undergone 6 cycles of Clomid/IUI in the hopes of getting pregnant and was told my next step should be In Vitro Fertilization. I was feeling frustrated and ready to try something different. From the moment I started seeing Aaron I felt that I was in great hands. He took so much time to get to know me and really understand what I was struggling with. He has been invested from the very beginning in helping me and each week would review where I was at when we last met and discuss the plan for our next session. I was blown away at how attentive he was, especially after feeling like the Doctors I was seeing couldn't remember anything about my history and would rush me out of their offices. If after a few weeks of trying certain treatments I wasn't seeing any improvement, Aaron would be ready with a new plan/course of treatment when I arrived at my next appointment. As a result of his kindness and compassion, I felt comfortable enough to share with Aaron that I was struggling with depression and he was able to assist with that as well. He was able to suggest some herbal supplements that have been very helpful. Long story short, I cannot say enough good things about Aaron and my experience at Philadelphia Mind-Body Acupuncture. My migraines have reduced dramatically and I am no longer taker ANY medication for them and after 9 months of seeing Aaron I found out that I was pregnant and had conceived naturally despite being told that I most likely would not be able to. I have a beautiful 4 week old son and Aaron is a part...
   Read moreI have an issue with sinus congestion, irritated throat, phlegm and allergy for almost 3 years. I am allergy to dust, mites, dog & cats fur, different kind of weeds. I may have certain food allergies (which I didnt recognize in the past, but currently trying to do food elimination to help with my treatment). I cough everytime I have meal and brush my teeth. I went to see GI doctor, ENT doctor, did many different tests with the hope âto be diagnosedâ with something. Everything came out fine. But I still cough and there is so much phlegm under my throat everytime I eat, and I need to rely on anti histamine for a very long time. One of my friend told me about acupuncture that would naturally heal my body. I went searching for the reliable acupuncture place and found Mind Body Acupuncture.
Dr.Mary Gagliardi is just wonderful! I met her and shared with her all of my problems. She is calm, knowledgeable, attentive, supportive and truly a passionate practitioner. She gave me weekly treatment and always asked me how I felt everytime I met her. I believe I am just going the half way through and canât say that the allergy totally goes away, but I definitely felt better after 3-4 treatments. The herbs that Dr.Mary gave me also help me feel more comfortable (along with acupuncture), my throat is less irritated and I was being able to breathe better. Dr.Mary also helped me reschedule my treatment when I was busy with my crazy schedule, in just a few minutes. I was able to text her whenever I have questions and she would get back to me within a same day!
The office is nice, calm, clean, not overcrowded and smells good! Mind Body has been my favourite place to come to take a short break. If there are other health issues that I get and are on the treatment list, I would keep coming...
   Read moreI have seen Dr. Cashman once a week for the last six months or so and the transformation in my healing has been nothing short of a miracle. I have something called AVN which is avascular necrosis, which has caused my weight-bearing bones in my ankle to begin to crumble. It was caused from long term steroids I had to be on for the treatment of leukemia 40 years ago. Regretfully it has caught up with me, and although I will need full ankle replacement surgery in three weeks, the peace of mind and pain relief he has given me has been phenomenal. I often go to his office with a pain Level of eight and leave with a pain level of two. Once I went in with a migraine and left with no headache at all! He is the kindest doctor I know in the world. His patience is endless, His determination to provide you with the best possible outcome is his lifetime goal. His incredible experience around the world, coupled with his passion for healing, makes a visit to his office worth every cent! There's no price tag when you can get pain relief from something that is tried and true and tested for thousands and thousands of years. If you're on the fence about whether it will work for you, give it a try and be open to the possibility. It will forever...
