No More back pain
I have had lower back pain for many many years,and after seeing many Doctors, and specialists, getting prescriptions for very addictive pain medicine. I had resisinged to fact that I was going to live with a certain amount of pain. One of the doctors introduced me to injections in my lower back, and at this point I was willing to try anything; so we proceeded with a three part injection series. The injections didn't last and before I knew it my lower back pain had returned, so instead of fixing the pain they were putting a bandaid on it. One day a co-worker and I was talking about acupuncture, I have had acupuncture before maybe seven years or so and I wasn't impressed, but at this point I was willing to try it again. So I did a search for acupuncture in Oak Park and Samantha name came up.
I have had two treatments from her up until now she is amazing, she is very knowledgeable of the human body, and the inner working of it. For the first time in many years I havnt had any lower back pain, I keep waiting on the pain to return, but it has not.
I am very greatful i went to see Samantha, and I highly recommend her.

Relief from 4+ yrs of chronic back/hip pain
Before seeing Samantha, I had been suffering from chronic back and hip pain for more than 4 years. I had seen multiple healthcare professionals during 2 of those years that I had finally decided to seek treatment.
Acupuncture was providing me with the most pain relief, but I never felt like the practitioners I was seeing previously were able to identify the root cause of my pain so they were just treating the symptoms.
I decided to see Samantha hoping that her training in multiple modalities would provide more long term pain relief and possibly find the true source of my pain.
I’m so thankful that I found her! For the first time in years I really felt listened to by a healthcare professional and I am happy to report that my chronic pain is now reduced mostly to just the occasional flare up.
I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone suffering from chronic pain issues…she is amazing! For me, her greatest skill is listening to my complaints, knowing my personal health struggles even when I’m unable to clearly describe them, and treating my whole body not just the part that hurts right now.

Chron's disease & digestive problem relief
Anyone with digestive problems who has not investigated acupuncture should contact Samantha post-haste! I have Crohn's, in addition to some food allergies, and - thanks almost exclusively to acupuncture - I'm able to be off of all maintenance medications. It has been one of the greatest boons to my health and well-being. Highly recommended.

For me, the use of acupuncture is like a periodic “tune up” for my car.
I have known Samantha Lotti since she graduated from the University of Chicago and began her long series of studies and then career in alternative health medicine. Her approach is exceptional by working with both her left brain and her right brain … both learning her field very well and then applying it for resolving client issues. I have spinal stenosis and Samantha first introduced me to the benefits of acupuncture for this, and I continue to use acupuncture periodically. For me, the use of acupuncture is like a periodic “tune up” for my car. I highly recommend a consult with Samantha Lotti at Biodynamic Health Systems and if I could give more than five stars I would.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Samantha to anyone suffering from chronic pain!
Before finding Samantha, I had seen an orthopedic MD, a physical therapist, a couple chiropractors, several massage therapists, and 2 acupuncturists. I had been suffering from chronic back and hip pain for serval years after a sports injury and an icy fall about a year after that. Of all the treatments I had tried, acupuncture seemed to have the best results.
I have now come to understand that all acupuncturists have slightly different training, approaches, and styles of healing. Of all the acupuncturists I have seen, Samantha is BY FAR the best! I find her method of healing to be all encompassing. She doesn’t just treat what you come in complaining about. She assesses your body, and maybe more importantly, your spirit, as a whole. She really tries to find the root cause of your discomfort and not just treat the symptoms.
I have found significant pain relief after seeing Samantha just a handful of times. I have benefitted from her herbal therapies, cupping, acupuncture and cranial sacral treatments. While my pain is not yet entirely gone (treatments continue), I have the least amount of pain I‘ve had in years and feel more balanced and in tune with my body than I ever have before.
She has an uncanny ability to know me and my personal health struggles even when I haven’t yet shared them with her or maybe even considered them myself. She’s an amazing listener who always makes me feel heard—I wish more health professionals were as dedicated to their patients as Samantha. I would wholeheartedly recommend Samantha to anyone suffering from chronic pain!

As a body centered psychotherapist, I will be encouraging my clients with a trauma history to see her
Samantha's depth of knowledge and skill in both Chinese medicine and cranial sacral therapy are phenomenal. I have received lots of really good acupuncture and bodywork over the last twenty years; her precision in diagnosing and treating, as well as her heartful presence in practice make her stand out as one of the very best. She is also just a lovely and fun person, which helps the medicine go down . As a body centered psychotherapist, I will be encouraging my clients with a trauma history to see her for help with their physical and emotional pain, as well as resolution of the activation patterns held n their nervous systems. I am presently seeing her now as I work through some deep life transitions and highly recommend her work.
