"Several years after a very bad car accident, it took my doctors years to diagnose that I had FMS, Chronic Fatigue and whatever else they wanted to call what they thought I might have. With thousands of dollars in tests and treatments along with the many prescription drugs in me, I was still suffering daily. I was not getting any better - I was getting sicker, weaker, mentally and physically stressed. I had gained almost 70 lbs along with many side effects from the drugs the doctors were prescribing to me. Finding Maria was a wonderful blessing. Her understanding of the natural healing arts along with her gifted healing energies has helped my body to begin healing and to continue to heal. Through the many styles of treatments she offers, my body was able to start cleansing itself of the many years of toxins my body had accumulated. She helped me to be patient in my healing process. She reminded me of how it took a long time for my body to get in its unhealthy state. She gave me hope that with my dedication to heal, along with the treatments that she offers I will be feeling better in time.

Maria was right. Today, I am walking without my cane and/or forearm crutches. I am prescription medication free. I am pain free most of the time and I have lost 60 lbs. I still go into treatments with her on a periodic basis as needed. Her gentle application is great.

I love Maria. She has passion in her work, compassion for her patients along with the knowledge about how the body is able to heal itself naturally."

“I have suffered with the embarrassing and seldom discussed problem of the lack of urinary control for well over 10 years-ever since I was pregnant with my first child. After being told by my urologist that the only thing I could do was to take prescription drugs (which have horrible side affects), I decided to go to Maria Furlano for acupuncture treatment for a drug free natural cure. With Maria’s advice, encouragement and specific exercises, I can go through my day with greater confidence. I now have greater control over my bladder! Maria is a kind, caring and compassionate practitioner. I urge anyone who has a similar problem to go to Maria for help.”

"Maria has been such a tremendous help to me in treating my Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. When I started seeing her a year ago, I was in quite a lot of pain and feeling very rundown. Her treatments have reduced my pain so much that I am no longer on pain medication. I have much more energy and am able to enjoy life once again. I would recommend Maria to anyone who is interested in exploring acupuncture as an alternative to, or enhancement of, traditional western medicine. It has truly changed my life."

"Dear Maria, Your Qi Gong classes have helped me in my massage practice and my life.  Your gentle instruction helped me to learn each pose without stress and made me aware of the flow of my Qi.  I practice Qi Gong before each massage session and it helps me to be more aware of my energy as well as my clients.  I believe that I have avoided serious injury over the past 5 years because of your Qi Gong and movement classes. Thank you for helping me to become aware of my Qi!Love and light."
