Acupuncture near Orinda

“I had acute neck pain that even my chiropractor couldn't fix and so I decided to try acupuncture for the very first time. I was really surprised that the first thing we did wasn't needles, but some stretches and exercises to activate my muscles in my shoulder and neck. From there, she began her treatment and it was honestly amazing. I didn't feel the needles at all and Angie was so calm and informative as she explained what she was doing, how it would help me, and how much body was reacting. I would highly recommend Angie to anyone who is looking for body treatment! She worked magic!“

“Claudia is the most grounded, wise, authentic and present person I know. I have been doing her Evolve Spirit Coaching for close to 2 months now and feel she is extremely helpful. She is great at clearing energy and holding the space to work on a deep level. Each week she leads me through a guided meditation and teaches me about a new topic that we work on together, such an chakra alignment, intention, or trauma work just to name a few. I continue to learn every week and grow. Cannot recommend her enough.“

“I came to see Dr. Blanchard back in late February for really bad burning neck pain and head. I was crying and did not know what to do. I've never had that kind of pain before, ever! My husband contacted her. She was the only chiropractor available on a Sunday. My C1 and C2 were misaligned, I learned from Dr. Blanchard. She made an adjustment on my neck and the pain slowly subsided. I also had the best sleep in such a long time. I learned alot from Dr. Blanchard about health, food, wellness. Thank you Dr. Blanchard. I am very grateful. Thank you for all that you do. - Lynn“

“Fanny’s facials are the best! I’ve been getting regular facials for several months and my skin is so healthy and glowy.
Fanny is very knowledgeable and professional, and also so gentle, calm and nurturing. She always follows up to check on how I’m doing afterwards.
Her office is clean and inviting. I’m already looking forward to my next appointment because it’s such a relaxing experience, and my skin is looking progressively healthier after each visit!
Thank you Fanny! So happy I found you!“

“I highly recommend Teo Potts, LAc. I began working with him less than 6 months into Covid after my excellent, longtime MD-acupuncturist retired and sold him his practice. I interviewed Teo by phone along with others, which was enough to recognize his special qualities of empathy, deep listening, and curiosity for learning with me how best to approach a recent diagnosis I’d received from my Western doctor with Chinese medicine. He’s helped me make a healing addition to my daily diet, added very helpful herbs to my supplements regimen, and deepen my self-care in physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual ways. In the four years since we started working together, I have not once doubted my choice.

A few months after making this shift for myself, I started bringing my then 93-yo aunt (for whom I was caring during the pandemic) every other week. Her trepidation quickly turned into enthusiastic anticipation, as her sessions offered both some relief from her complex health issues as well as the opportunity to be seen and embraced by Teo’s warmth, wisdom, and care. It was a precious healing connection during a uniquely challenging and disconnected time.

Teo is a treasure, as I hope you’ll soon discover for yourself!“

“My journey with Root & Stem integrative Chinese Medicine is one of the best experiences. Every time I go I leave feeling better & better. And, I've noticed that my days of being in less pain or pain free are more. I am eternally grateful for this group of AMAZING Dr's.“

“I just moved to Oakland and was in search of a new acupuncturist. My previous acupuncturist I had been seeing for 5+ years and I was hopefully I would find someone as good. I have succeeded! John Luna is very thorough and skilled. I have seen much improvement over the past several weeks. I respect his bedside manner and his willingness to pay close attention to my body. 10/10! Wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.“

“New patient here, with much thanks for pain relief of an acute muscle problem. I've used acupuncture in the past for low back pain, but this was a new more challenging problem. Very thankful for the kind, caring and professional treatment I received from Dr. Dierauf over two weeks and four sessions. I've never had cupping or guasha (scraping) which definitly helped with pain relieve. Highly recommend. Linda J“

“Dr. Alison is your girl! I saw Dr. Alison for two years & she helped me in so many ways. Being a working parent has many stressful moments & I had so many symptoms I couldn't keep up. Dr. Alison provided the exact environment I needed in these moments. We talked about all the things, she got to know me & found the root cause of the many symptoms I was experiencing. I will be forever grateful & recommend this to all that are seeking a holistic approach to healing.“

“Dr. Kim is a miracle worker! I've had chronic back pain around my shoulder blade (where I hold stress) for over a year. I spent so much money on massage therapy and chiropractors but finally went in for acupuncture treatment and WOW, the pain is nearly non existent after one session! I can't express how wonderful it is to live pain-free because I forgot how it felt. Dr. Kim, and acupuncture made a believer in me and I am forever grateful to her practice! Highly recommend coming to see her if you have any ailments. She is so calming, and absolutely amazing at what she does!“

“I started coming here for TCM health care every week a couple months ago and have been seen by Jen and Chris so far. I am blown away by their level of professionalism and expertise. I've seen at least a dozen acupuncturists over the years, but never have I been to a practice like this where quality is consistent. Everyone that works here takes what they do seriously and they treat you with respect and care, including Sylk, Rebecca, and Perla. If I could give them all 10 stars I would... although I hope there will still be room for me in their calendars. =)“

“weekly acupuncture treatments are the best and I advise everyone to get cupping as well.“

“I was having random nerve pain all throughout my hands due to trimming pot for years. 2-3 weeks later after one session it completely went away. I've tried to be cheap and go to other acupuncturists and its a waste of time. I've been back for back pain and for my forearm from playing guitar. Also, sometimes you leave in more pain that will last for a few hours but after a couple weeks its like nothing ever happened. I would fly across the country to see him. Hes a straight up healer. I tell everybody I know about him.“

“I have been to two other highly rated fertility acupuncture specialists in the east bay and I can easily say Shirliey is by far the best. I started seeing her a year and a half ago when I had a failed embryo transfer and my spirits were low. Her empathy, kindness, and grace allowed me to heal in a way that helped my mind and body to be in a much better place. Not with any type of Chinese herbs or magical solutions but with better eating, daily habits, and with her care I was able to have an incredibly successful retrieval followed by a successful transfer. I can't thank Shirliey enough for all that she has done for me. Thank you Shirliey for everything.“

“I had the best experience with Marie. She did a thorough intake. She listened asked thoughtful questions and was extremely present with me. Such a professional. I felt so good after my treatment and received an after care treatment plan that was appropriate for my needs.“

“I saw Camille for a specific issue and received an initial treatment including massage and acupuncture. Not only did the treatment work but it relieved my symptoms for a few years! I have gone back for general upkeep and relaxation and have never been disappointed. I highly recommend her do general wellness and targeted issues.“

“I've been seeing Larisa since January 2023, and she has been a tremendous support through various aspects of my life. Her care and treatments have significantly improved my overall quality of life. Larisa is extremely knowledgeable and always takes the time to understand my unique needs. She goes above and beyond for her patients, offering both objective guidance and kind support. I always look forward to my sessions, knowing I'm in good hands. I highly recommend Larisa to anyone seeking a compassionate, skilled acupuncturist who truly cares about her patients' well-being!“

“Dr. Rachel is great, especially for women looking for fertility support. She really listens to your concerns and goals and takes meticulous notes. She was able to recommend me out to an amazing Endometriosis specialist which I am so grateful for. Thank you for all you do!“

“I just had a wonderful first treatment at Tune Up with Eun and I absolutely loved it. Eun is such a kindhearted person that clearly really wants to help people. The setting was calm and beautiful and I really benefited from my treatment. My lungs feel so much better - thank you Eun!“

“Update on a previous review. After 3 years Dr. Katie has helped me with so many challenges physical and mental. SHe has become not just an acupuncturist but trusted advisor.“
