  Teri IS a healer! When you feel lost with your immune system being non responsive to traditional medicine and the only way out is NO WAY or through the high dose steroids and heavy antibiotics or immunotherapy injections (where you become manic, and fat, and at risk for diabetes all the colorful list of side effects)... but worse judged by many of the unknowing internal medicine, family practice doctors who think they know more about dermatomes and the sense of impending doom... here then comes Teri. 20 sessions of NAET Acupuncture in Chicago and I have learned more about my body and how to be good to it. I have not gotten a respiratory infection in over 2 years since i started. ... She's exceptional. ...

  When I first went to Teri, I was scared of the needles and skeptical of whether acupuncture would work. At my first appointment, Teri's calm and warm presence helped to soothe my anxiety about the needles. I soon realized that the acupuncture was helped me to work on issues that even my doctors had not been able to solve. Teri is professional and dedicated to her patients, and I always feel like I am in good hands with her. Four years later, I am still going to Calandra Center for Health and Wellness and look forward to every visit.

  Long story short, Teri is everything a practitioner who sees someone with emotional/medical issues should be. She uses all her knowledge, senses and intuition to observe and listen to the patient. I bumped into her because I was frustrated about not finding a solution to the rosacea on my face. I had never done NAET before not heard of it. She thoroughly explained it through the phone and I thought about it for some weeks. I had seen an acupuncturist before and since I had tried many holistic/whole/integral remedies, I thought it would not hurt trying. I've been seeing her for the past year and she has helped more than my rosacea. This is what makes her so unique, her healing approach is not only about a specific ailment or symptom, but she treats the body as a whole. NAET has helped me become aware of unknown allergies and after 7 years of trying EVERYTHING, my face has never been as clear as it is today. Teri's approach is case-by-case and this is no one-recipe fits all type of treatment. This is why I cannot say that my body started healing when I stopped eating corn or when some food sensitivities were treated, because it is about more than that. I do not know exactly what happened, but I healed and re-connected with myself. Please note that it is a process and it will take time to heal years of emotional/food build up, but you will get there. Teri is very knowledgable on TCM, she is compassionate, truly cares about her patients and does everything she can to heal the patient.

  I started seeing Teri 2 years ago for knee pain. At that point it would hurt to walk even a mile, even though I had completed physical therapy three times. Within months of regular treatments from Teri, I was walking with much less pain, and today, I feel barely a twinge, if even t hat. She's also been able to help me with other issues, such as stress and sleeplessness. Teri is a wonderful acupuncturist - listens compassionately, her treatments are extremely effective and I can't recommend her more highly.

  I was looking for a NAET practitioner & acupuncturist close to where I live in Chicago and found Dr. Calandra thru her website. I have many allergies and sensitivities to lots of physical things and Teri has done a great job in treating me for them. She works well to identify the specific item(s) that were giving me problems and then she does a skillful job of treating the issue whether it is physical or emotional. She answers all my questions about the treatments plus she is very professional with a warm and friendly manner and high levels of care and concern. She has made a difference in my life and I highly recommend her for anyone looking for acupuncture and NAET.
