    Oakland Acupuncture Project I just want to write a brief thank you to Roselle, Whitney, and Cait.  When I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy I was searching for any possible remedy for my ailment and was desperate for a course of action that was more proactive than just taking traditional Western medicine. I am so happy that I tried acupuncture (for the first time) and that your treatment immediately reduced my palsy. Your staff was very thoughtful and accommodating in regards to my numerous apprehensions I had with treating my facial paralysis. The Oakland Acupuncture Project was an oasis of hope, and results, and I can not thank you enough for your special attention.

                                                                                                                  Thank You Greatly,                                                                                                              -Brian-Martin Samway
