Doctor Shimoda Bio "I was introduced to "Ah!mend" and decided to give it to my mother who is 80 years old and has rheumatoid arthritis in her hands and knees. As a physician, I had been unsuccessful at effectively relieving her pain with other methods of treatment. What I have learned that is so amazing about "Ah!mend" is that after 3 days of using it, she is without pain in her hands and knees and has increased her flexibility and mobility for the first time in 20 years. I fully recommend this product to anyone with an arthritis condition." Dr. Christian L. Shimoda Questions & Answers Q:  What is Ah!mend? A:  Ah!mend is a natural pain reliever.

I introduced some patients from my practice to Ah!mend. Here are the positive reactions they experienced. I feel strongly that this product has great promise. Tama S.: Crippled with rheumatoid arthritis for over 30 years. She stated, "I can feel improvement of my hands, feet, and hips. I am delighted." L.H.: Patient has generalized psoriasis, and I have noticed a marked improvement in his condition. His sores are also almost gone. D. McGill: Patient suffered from second degree burns of the right leg. The burn healed in half the usual time when treated with Ah!mend. J. Clark: Patient suffers from sever acne of the face and chest. I have noticed a wonderful healing after just two weeks. Patient is very pleased. Donna S.: Suffered from a blunt trauma injury while playing softball. The bruise she suffered was gone in two days. "I'm amazed." Shari R: sprained her ankle from fall in her Tae Kwon Do class. She experienced immediate relief from pain and resumed participation in class the next day.

Ah!mend did very little to help.  Bishop M.: Patient suffered from a long duration of pain to the right shoulder.  After two weeks he said, "Results of pain relief from Ah!mend can be felt and the effects are noticeable."

Stephanie B.: Sustained her injury from falling off her rollerblades. Ah!mend, with the aid of acupuncture, has helped her through the healing process. Personally, I have found Ah!mend to be 85% affective when used by patients in my practice. I think Ah!mend is most helpful in the healing process of the body, especially in the joints and muscles.
