When I re-read the following note I wrote about Dr. Cheryl Sly, I
thought
it could not possibly be true, but joyfully it is! I am no longer obese, diabetic, or in chronic pain! Through "baby steps", Dr. Sly guided me from 315 pound in July, 2009, to
my present 210. Patiently, she taught me about the healing benefits of whole foods. She counseled me on nutrition,
life style choices, and my self image. She motivated me to start moving, then walking,
then to the gym, then hiking, and now running, weight training and yoga.
I now have boundless energy. I no
longer need diabetes medication
because I no longer am diabetic! My stress test has returned to normal and my cardiologist congratulated me on reversing heart
disease! A serious accident years ago left me with chronic pain. My chronic pain is now 85% gone thanks
to Dr. Sly's knowledge and practice of acupuncture. She gently encouraged me to achieve optimal health, always saying just the right things to build my confidence to stick with my healthy new
lifestyle. When I backpedaled, she always was there for me without being judgmental. Dr. Sly helped me understand
that for decades, I had been stuffing my emotions with food and helped me explore how obesity was keeping me from fully enjoying
my family, myself, and my life. I was fortunate to have become a patient of Dr. Cheryl Sly. Making that first
appointment with her is one of the highlights of my life, and a day that I will always cherish. J~, Arizona
Cheryl (or Dr. Sly) is truly interested
in treating the whole person. We work on diet, sleep issues, stress reduction, hormone regulation, and self esteem—among other things. She has helped me become
a more positive and healthier, calmer person. Cheryl really knows her "stuff" and is also a gifted counselor who
helped me deal with emotional issues that were causing anxiety and holding me back from living an enjoyable, more productive
life. ~CD, Arizona
Dr. Sly, Your recommended lifestyle
changes have helped put my on the path of eliminating blood pressure medicine. Since
meeting with you and following your directions, my blood pressure has dropped 10 to 15 points and I have eliminated one of
two medications that I was taking for my blood pressure. Thank You!! Mike-
6 mo later. There is now 65lbs less of
me, I have dropped all pain meds, my arthritis is much less of a problem, I have really controlled my blood sugar with out
meds. My 24-7 hand and back pain has totally left 2 of my 3 fingers and most of my hand/back. I am more alert
and positive and appreciative of my life and Dr. Sly's counseling. She has now treated other family members and
has helped my family deal with serious problems. I have weaned myself from caffeine, sugar, aspartame, starchy carbs
and animal fat. I no longer support fast food restaurants. I know why green leafy veggies contribute so much to my lifestyle
changes. Dr. Sly has introduced me to so many healthy ways, all by baby steps, never by intimidation. Her fees
are most reasonable. She has a beautiful office, a winning smile, and boundless enthusiasm for teaching optimal health.

I came to Dr. Cheryl Sly in complete frustration.
For 13 years I had dealt with "episodes" of near passing out and going blind in one eye. I was told by numerous
doctors that I was a "reactive hypoglycemic" and I had to control my blood sugar
with specific food every three hours. My episodes started happening more frequently and gave me horrible anxiety about going
anywhere in fear that it would occur. I knew it was time to seek an alternative route which lead me to Dr. Sly. The moment
I entered her office I knew I was where I needed to be. Dr. Sly has an incredibly calming demeanor and was genuinely interested
in hearing my story. What I loved about her. verses other medical doctors, was that she wasn't looking to treat my symptoms
but took information from childhood on to treat me as a "whole" person and find out what the "cause" was.
After undergoing a food sensitivity test and eliminating specific foods I felt amazing. I no longer have the constant
sinus pressure and have not had an "episode" since seeing her. I couldn't be
more grateful to Dr. Sly for what she has given back to me. I am happier, healthier, and have so much more confidence to enjoy
life!

Six weeks ago, I had "permanent"
constant pain in my left hand, radiculopathy following trauma to vertebra level C-7/T-1, and surgery four years ago.
Today, Thanks to Dr. Cheryl Sly and acupuncture, I have two thirds less hand pain, half less intermittent back pain, much
more strength, and dexterity! I also have greater energy, better
concentration, more positive outlook, and am twenty-five pounds smaller after nutritional counseling. Arthritis pain
is significantly less. As a recently diagnosed diabetic, I notice my blood sugars are improving on less medicine.
She introduced me to a healthier diet, eliminating empty calories, emphasizing the healing benefits of whole foods. Mesa, AZ
Over the last several years,
I have experienced pain due to arthritis, bursitis,
pinched nerves and leg cramps. The pain and overall discomfort kept me from living the
active, happy life I once experienced. Dr. Sly treated me with acupuncture, natural supplements and nutrient IV therapy, and counseled me on the benefits of a healthy diet, without the need of prescription
drugs. I again enjoy the fulfilling life I once had. ~Lynn S, Arizona
I was very impressed with Dr. Sly’s ability to merge cutting edge research and technology
with ancient non invasive practices, to treat my physical training and sports injuries. Dr. Sly confidently
guided me while referencing her own personal experience – and that is what mattered to me most!

For me, Dr. Cheryl Sly had the magic combination—natural
ways to deal with my allergies and hormones, acupuncture to slow me down and reduce anxiety, and a special ability to counsel,
which helped me get "unstuck" in my life and deal with the issues that were causing so much turmoil. Thanks, Cheryl! ~Sun City, AZ
I came to Dr. Sly after I herniated a disc
in my back. The pain made day to day living very uncomfortable. At first I was going to a chiropractor but I was
unable to get back the comfort level I desired. I was willing to try anything and I am happy I found Dr. Sly.
She is informative, caring and willing to listen to your concerns. She has many tools that allows her to find the right
answer for your body. I personally had acupuncture,
prolo therapy and cupping done to help alleviate my pain. She also had other things to offer to help “reset”
my body and alleviate the pain. I am thankful for Dr. Sly’s treatment and I would recommend it to anyone experiencing
back pain or any kind of pain!

I had a severe case of Valley Fever. Dr.
Sly was a major factor in my care and recovery. I am 75 years old and have been working with Dr. Sly on a nutrition
and exercise program. I feel 10 to 15 years younger without the need for prescription drugs.

She is a great counselor and helped me get
through a very difficult time in my life. Dr. Sly motivated me to pursue my goals and dreams. She helped me believe
in myself. My cravings went away with the acupuncture!
