Natural Health Improvement Center—Palos Park - Palos Park, Illinois

I had bells palsy and sought out acupuncture to try and recapture the movement in the left side of my face. Same thing happened 27 years ago and it worked but I waited two months before getting the treatments thinking it would return on its own. This time I immediately scheduled treatments within the first week. Dr. Stacey Phelps administered the acupuncture treatments. She was very informative and I felt comfortable and confident in her abilities.

After four treatments over a two week period I have most of the movement back in my face. She did mention my progress was much quicker than normal but a key component was getting in there as quickly as I did. When I mentioned acupuncture to some traditional doctors, they winced and told me that was "witch doctor" medicine. Well, I'm living proof that it actually works. It's the only thing that restored movement in my face back.

If you have any doubts about the benefits of acupuncture, please suspend your disbelief. It works!! I would recommend Dr. Stacy if you are in need of acupuncture or any of the many services she and her staff offers.

Dr Michelle is my doctor. The service is always prompt and with a smile. I get a massage and adjustments on my back/ lower back. I went from a pain level of about 8 down to 2 in about a month of weekly sessions and stretching daily in between. I definitely recommend Dr Michelle!!!

I was very pleased with the care we received when I took my 85 yr-old mother to see Dr. Stacy. She was patient and receptive to our input surrounding my mother's condition. I'm going back for an appointment for myself this week. #verypleased

I was excited to get NRT done, and the center was able to schedule me the next day. The practitioner and I discussed my symptoms and goals extensively, and I was clear I wanted to start with diet changes and had a supplement company I prefer, if we found supplementation was necessary. She seemed to be fine with all of this.

I was surprised and disappointed when I received my results, and they were entirely comprised of supplements that they sell. There was no information on what nutrients I was deficient in (and the supplements were typically combination), and we never discussed what my diet looked like at all. It would have required additional payment to even find out the supplement dosage, so the results were entirely useless to me. The last page had two graphs showing the results of my fitness assessment, and the practitioner would not answer what one of the graphs meant because it was "too complex for the average person to understand," even though I was apparently, as she said, so far advanced beyond the usual client in my knowledge.

Additionally, when I came in to go over the results, I was not seen for 45 minutes after my scheduled time (for a 10-15 minute appointment). When I entered the room, instead of apologizing, the practitioner commented that we were "right on time."

Finally, I was told that my health was overall in great condition, but because I wasn't sure if I were to continue, I was asked to sign a liability form that stated that I recognized my health was seriously compromised.

Overall, it was a waste of time. Thankfully, I spent very little money on this for what amounted to no insight into my nutritional needs at all.

My experience with The Natural Health Improvement Center has been incredible. Undiagnosed health issues were causing me a lot of stress and worry. I completed NRT through Natural Health Improvement Center and began my wellness journey. In a short matter of time I began to feel healthy and happy. The staff have been so amazing. Kind, respectful and fun to work with. I always feel cared for and listened to when I’m in the office. So grateful for this center and all the employees.

We came across Natural Health h Improvement center after our chiropractor moved out of the state. The staff is amazing and very friendly; always answering and all questions we have. Michelle is awesome and was my go to after a long run during my 1/2 marathon training.

I’m looking forward to trying out new he other services they offer!

Dr. Stacey has been absolutely amazing, she has helped me through so many issues. She kind, understanding and thoughtful. She explains everything (what is happening, why it’s happening and how each supplement works and aid in my recovery)

Dr. Stacy has helped my thyroid issues more than any dr I've seen in 25 years. The staff is wonderful, the office is clean and your appointments are always on time! I highly recommend checking out their services.
