Acupuncture near Foster City

“Great professional service and very relaxing, mr lau is very considerate when it comes to his patients“

“I went to Dr. Zhu with lower back discomfort and some digestive issues. From a medical standpoint, I needed to lose weight and get more exercise to fully relieve my symptoms. But all that discomfort was getting in the way of my progress. I was interested in acupuncture and guasha and Dr. Zhu explained to me the ways in which these two techniques could improve my health. Our bodies can heal, but sometimes they need to be induced. Techniques like acupuncture, guasha and even cupping, whether they are delivering more circulation to affected areas, or some blocked energy is being released, these can help in your health journey. Dr. Zhu is good at explaining, she is thorough and takes her time with you. One 90-minute acupuncture session with her was already super helpful for my lower back pain. I was more able to sit up and get up without aching within like 2 days after recovery. If you are looking to relieve some non-communicable pain or discomfort, and you think ancient Chinese medicine techniques could help you, I highly recommend Dr. Zhu, she's great.“

“Highly recommend! Sachi is an exceptional Chinese Medicine practitioner. I first started seeing her after frustrations with western medical care's inability to solve chronic knee pain. With Sachi's holistic approach to healing my injuries, I saw vast improvements over just a couple weeks. After implementing her recommended lifestyle changes, I also started having the best periods of my life. She is so gentle with her acupuncture and really takes the time to understand your problems and lifestyle. I always receive the best care and advice from Sachi!“

“Dr. McColl at the Village Doctor has been my PCP for about a year and a half. I am so impressed with both his care and the responsiveness and care of the entire staff. In addition to meeting my immedicate medical needs, Dr. McColl has made excellent referrals to specialists for me. Nothing drops through the cracks at the Village Doctor.“

“This place is amazing! Anita Huang takes amazing care even right away from her first appointment. She has an expert eye and takes time to understand your needs before she starts anything. I've been a few times and she has helped resolve problems I had for months with other acupuncturists. I can't recommend her enough she is wonderful and patient and kind. She heals with empathy and respect“

“This place is wonderful! The staff are lovely people and very helpful. The practitioners are very knowledgeable and provided excellent services. 10/10!“

“Dr Jack is the best! He's very knowledgeable and caring. I've known him for several years now.“

“I am so glad that I finally found this place after trying acupuncture and massage at so many other places. Doctor Gan is so knowledgeable and is always on point when she does acupuncture. I sit a lot at work and have both neck and back problem. In addition, I danced often so my legs are tight as well. She is able to help me loose the muscle and makes me feel recovered after every session. On top of that, they also have great therapeutic massages. Both Sunny and Leo are extraordinary and responsible. They are my life savers after a long working week“

“Dr. Wang has been very helpful for my acute back pain. He listens to where your pain points are, asks thoughtful questions, and then talks about his treatment plan. He has provided me relief where chiropractors were unable to. I had never done acupuncture before and was scared of needles. However, his technique doesn't hurt at all. You barely feel the needle going in and once he's done and you're lying there, you can feel your body calm and start to heal. The cupping also helps if you have acute pain as it helps to release pressure in those areas. I benefited so much from it that when my mom came who is struggling with a lot of arthritis I sent her to him and she also said Dr. Wang was very helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone in pain but also who wants to just benefit from relaxation and cleansing. It has become a weekly appointment for me and an hour of calm that I look forward to. Dr. Wang responds promptly to emails, texts and even follows up with extra information that he talks about in sessions to help at home. He has been very flexible accomodating my schedule and reschedules. Can't recommend him more highly.“

“Dr. Lisa is magnificent. She listen to my concerns. Her cupping technique is so unique. As you can see, she used only 10 cups but I have marking allover my back. I felt so good after treatment. I will be back soon. Thank you Dr. Lisa!“

“I was a bit of a sceptic when I first came to see Megan. I had had one other acupuncture experience that wasn't the best. But, I had been suffering from a toothache, neck pain and jaw pain that the dental world was blaming on my jaw. I thought otherwise, but had to do something because the pain was so bad. Dr. Berry was so thorough during the intake session and wanted to get a full picture of my health. With all of that information, she was able to come up with a treatment plan for me. Each week, she would review my history and check in on how things were going. She always made sure I was comfortable, and checked in on me during my treatment. By the end of my package, my jaw and neck pain were gone. Left with only the tooth pain, I was able to go back the to the dentist and tell them that the root cause was, in fact, my tooth (no pun intended.) I will definitely return to Megan should I ever need help. She is such a kind, caring, intelligent and knowledgeable practitioner!“

“I am a lawyer at a tech company that manages a lot of stress (close deals worth billions), and I was looking for an accu that can help manage my lifestyle. I have stress and issues sleeping the entire night.

If you come across this place consider yourself truly blessed. I have seen more than a dozen accus throughout my life due to being in different job locations and know when someone is talented. Yaping Chen is so amazing. In one month working with her, my anxiety is barely there (it doesn't surface through the entire day) and I can sleep through the nights with no issue.

Yaping has this unique, unworldly way of working with people. Her heart is completely in her work, and she cares so much about her patients. She intuitively knows where blocks are in your body w/o you having to say much, and uses CranioSacral Therapy as a healing technique (that not many people know). Each accu session has brought so much joy.“

“Dr.Yu is incredibly knowledgeable and provided the best treatment for my tendinitis when I came in. Highly recommend coming in for a session!“

“After trying numerous treatments for my post-shingles nerve pain, I decided to give acupuncture a try out of desperation and extreme discomfort. Amazingly, after just one session, 90% of my pain was gone. I still can't believe it! The practitioner is extremely professional and experienced. I can't wait to return for another treatment.“

“I called this center maybe 3 months prior to my first appointment with a accupuncturist. When I called, the receptionist told me they were booked out for 3 months in advanced. However, since this place was nearby and I read all the positive views on yelp, I really wanted to try this place out. So I gave them my insurance information and waited for my turn. Well the day finally came for my appointment. They did not send me any reminders for that day, but I wrote in my calendar that I had an appointment, however I was unsure if it was at 2:30pm or 2:45pm. So I opted to come a little before 2:30pm in hopes of not missing my appointment. When I arrived I like the receptionist know I was there for an appointment and she said she was very glad I showed up because she said it was her fault for not writing down my number when I booked the appointment way back when. Well thank goodness I wrote it down so I wouldn't forget and was able to see the acupuncturist. There are two acupuncturist at this center (Angela and Minal). I booked my appointment with Minal. She was very sweet and knowledge about the practice. I did an acupuncture with cupping. Cupping was an extra $10 that was not covered with my insurance but I figured it was still a good deal. I have only done acupuncture and cupping once before this experience. Minal said she does this thing called moving cupping. Where she uses the same cups but moves it throughout the whole back. There were a few points where I experienced extra pain from the needles (which she told me was because it was super tense there) and some pain with the heat from the cups. She released a little bit of the energy and then added it back when I was able to tolerate it a bit more. She was very kind and made sure to check in on my throughout the experience. I explained that I have been pretty bad back pain for awhile now since working at my job due to all the bending over and lifting. Even to a point that I bought a back brace. Minal was able to help relieve some of the pain and I can only hope that as I go more frequently it will be more helpful. Overall, I had a great experience with Minal. I will definitely be back for more appointments. It may be intimidating to know that it took me this long to get an appointment, but after you get your initial appointment, it's not as bad to get another appointment in. They have a system that notifies you when someone cancels their appointment so you can pick it up. Also to further convince you, I had the best sleep that night after my treatment so it is def worth it!“

“He's not like any doctor, spine specialist, acupuncturist, masseuse, etc. He is like a mechanic for your body. He looks at you, then right away goes to all the painful trigger points with surgical precision, uncovers the ones you didn't know about, releases them all, massages all the deep muscles that are INSIDE your spine with ease, releases all the spasms or tightness that were hidden for decades, leaving you in shock and wondering why no one ever pointed them out. In only two sessions he already did more for my spine than all the doctors, spine specialists, acupuncturists, masseuses I have seen for decades, combined. He looks at your whole body instead of treating every symptom separately, which should be an obvious approach but apparently so rare. If you're looking for a relaxing massage, look somewhere else. If you want to fix your pain, no matter how old it is, he is your guy.“

“Dr. Chen, is the BEST acupuncture person I have had. She is generous with needles and time. She is Soft spoken kind and doesn't rush you. My neck pain has drastically improved I feel much better. She gives you the works, acupuncture a massage, cupping a heat lamp.. wow you will leave very satisfied with Dr. Chen.
I highly recommend her if you have any kind of pain.“

“Dr Tien is an experienced herbal & acupuncturist! Many friends and family have been going for years. He is detailed, caring, and personal!“

“Best of the best - I was seen by a number of top medical professionals in the bay area for a serious injury. The issues I had been struggling with that my doctors at Stanford could not provide solutions to, Vincent resolved with just 1-2 visits, without a surgery or prescription or another medical exam. That gave me hope during a challenging time of my life. He is the best TCM doctor - I've tried several other top rated ones in different locations but no one came close to him. Hope he lives long and doesn't retire.“

“I had been going to Eva for about 15 years with excellent results for many issues and now her daughter, Emily, has taken over. Since it was an option, I saw her massage therapist, Zak, to see if I could resolve my dizziness and vertigo without needles. It has been very effective so far. But then my knee had been acting up and I needed acupuncture so I saw Emily. After the first treatment the pain was reduced noticeably. And it's continually getting better. Under their care, I have not needed an American doctor in years. As an added bonus, parking is easy here and it's right off the freeway.“

“Review is long over due!I have been a patient of Intergrative Heath on and off for a few years. I have always received genuine advice, care and feedback from Dr. Simon and the staff. They are always professional, caring and authentic. I highly recommend this health clinic.“

“Emily is a WONDERFUL practitioner! A few years ago, her practice was recommended to me after coming down with Long COVID. While I didn't know much about acupuncture, Emily was kind enough to go very slowly and answer ALL my questions along the way. Since I've been with her, she's been able to ease my Long COVID symptoms (along with other treatments), decrease my endometriosis symptoms, and improve my circulation, which helped my POTS issues. Today, I'm doing much better thanks to her help. Also, in these last six months, she's added acupuncture for anti-aging. I've started acupuncture for the face, and it's already showing results: more vibrance and decreased forehead lines. I'm happy with the results so far, and I'm curious how the next year will go using these natural methods. I recommend entirely Emily for her acupuncture care.“

“Highly recommended! I have a pinched nerve and she complete took the pain away. Very clean and professional. I will be going back for future aches and pains.“

“I suffered from chronic back pain and forearm tightness at the old age of 29, from typing at a tech job and using non-ergonomic keyboard/mouse. After 6 months of consistent treatment with Dr. Lauren, I am very fortunate that my back pain has subsided and my forearms/neck/shoulders just need routine maintenance with acupuncture.Dr. Lauren's approach was sometimes painful for me but always worth it as I am amazed that my back is healed. Thank you so much Dr. Lauren.“

“I've had acupuncture needles stuck in me since I was 1-2 years ago and have had a couple of acupuncturist in my own family. I have also lived in China for a couple years with the intent to attend the Beijing Acupuncture University back in the 80's. Needless to say, I have a lifetime of experience with the art of acupuncture and know who's good and who's not.Dr. Richard is an excellent acupuncturist and skilled at TuiNa Medical massage/acupressure. His skills are China taught (way much better than those trained anywhere else). How do you know the difference? Most US trained acupuncturist are afraid to go to the depth of where the needles need to reach to be most effective.I've been seeing Dr. Richard for many many years and I won't see anyone else. Him and his wife are a delight to see and they make it very convenient for when I need to come in (even on the same day). Don't waste your time on the others.... make your appointment today and don't trust reviewers that don't have any experience with the Art of Acupuncture. Happy health : )“

“I have been suffering from a side headache for a few years and it was getting worse and more frequent. Conventional medicine was not able to help without putting me on long term painkillers. I tried ​manual osteopathy and also another acupuncturist but without success. It wasn’t until I was treated by Ben that my headache greatly improved! It worked like magic. I couldn’t be more happy with the results. Additionally, Ben also treated my knee pain successfully. Ben has great bed-side manner, very professional and caring. Even though I was nervous with needles, Ben makes the treatment comfortable.“
