It was Friday, September 27, 2024, that my life changed overnight. I went from being completely…read morehealthy--perfect bloodwork, no medications, a clean organic diet, slim and fit--to being crippled overnight. I am a Clinical Psychologist, Assistant Clinical Professor at Yale University, and a full-time private practitioner. I love my work and my patients. But now, I am the patient. After having two infected molars extracted--remnants of childhood root canals--I suffered a stroke just a day and a half later, paralyzing the right side of my body. My neurologist at Yale's Stroke Clinic believes bacteria entered my bloodstream from the procedure. I was prescribed antibiotics only on the day of extraction, not before. I had always been fiercely independent. Suddenly, I was helpless. Lying in bed, unable to move, I was consumed by an anxiety I had never known. The fear was paralyzing. Nights were sheer terror--I felt trapped in darkness, convinced morning would never come. My body wouldn't move, my mind raced, and the isolation of night made it unbearable. Sleep, crucial for brain repair after a stroke, was impossible. Desperate for relief, I reached out to Xilin Feng Jordan, the owner of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. She had successfully treated me for a shoulder issue a decade earlier, and I knew I needed her expertise again. The universe works in mysterious ways--without Xilin, I don't know where I'd be. She is my miracle, my healer--physically, emotionally, and spiritually. With experience treating stroke patients in a Chinese hospital, she makes magic happen. Now, five months post-stroke, while I continue traditional rehab, it is Xilin's acupuncture--four to five times a week--that drives my recovery. I arrive struggling to move, and by the end of each session, I have more mobility than before. Walking, lifting my arm, moving my fingers--all remain challenges, but every day, I grow stronger. Her son, Libai, currently getting his degree in acupuncture, adds to her brilliance, offering insightful and effective recommendations. How wonderful it is to get two brilliant minds. Xilin is more than a practitioner; she is a spiritual healer. The energy she and Libai radiate is infectious. She lives what she teaches, recommending transformative books like The Magic of Surrender by Kute Blackson, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, Believe in Yourself by Joseph Murphy, The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer, and You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. At her suggestion, I now use a Biomat--an FDA-licensed infrared heating pad infused with amethyst and tourmaline, combining far-infrared light and negative ion technology. Every night, I lay on it for an hour while listening to audiobooks. This simple practice has been invaluable to my healing. In addition to acupuncture, Xilin prescribed two powerful herbal formulas. One calmed my crippling nighttime anxiety, allowing me to sleep--something I feared I had lost forever. That intervention was life-changing. Sleep is essential for stroke recovery; it's when the brain repairs itself. Without it, healing stalls. Xilin's medicine gave me back my nights, which in turn, gave me back my recovery. Recovery demands full commitment--physically, mentally, and emotionally. The mind holds immense power. If you believe you won't recover, you won't. Even with the best care, a negative mindset will sabotage progress. We are the product of our beliefs. Xilin has reshaped my perspective. I've let go of anger at the dentist who didn't prescribe antibiotics earlier. Instead, I focus entirely on the present--on healing. My journey is built on Xilin's extraordinary acupuncture, Chinese herbs, healthy eating, quality sleep, physical therapy, rehab, and the wisdom found in the books she recommended. Most importantly, she believes in me, and that belief helps me believe in myself. Her confidence in making a full recovery gives me the strength to keep going. That trust, that unwavering faith in my ability to heal, is just as crucial as any treatment. It is the foundation of my progress, and for that, I am endlessly grateful.

For 2 months every day around 5pm I was feeling terrible bloating and reflux and going to sleep…read morebecame very difficult. I couldn't eat much, and I ended up losing 8 pounds in this period. I went twice to my regular doctor who didn't help me much other than request a bunch of exams and saying to take "over the counter medicines" which were not helping at all. Very frustrated I decided to search for a good Chinese acupuncturist and after reading the reviews for Xilin Feng Jordan, I decided to make an appointment. Xilin does the first appointment via video, online. The appointment lasted around 45 minutes when Xilin asked me a lot of questions about my problem and my health. I was surprised with the connections she made with other health problems and with her true interest in knowing more about me. Xilin is not only an experience acupuncturist (I checked online all the designations she carries (Lac, DAc, Dipl. Ac, MSTOM) which tells me that she is always studying, and she mentioned to me that she recently got a certificate from the Back Center in United Kingdom for Bach Flower Therapy. She said that she can use this amazing tool to address patients emotional stress in-depth and to help people enhance their life qualities and prevent emotional induced physical pain. Xilin also specializes in herbs. I believe that the herbs she prescribed to me, in the first week, played a major role in my healing. The leftovers of those miracle/powerful herbs (it is a mixing of various herbs) would stick in my mug and I can imagine what it did inside; no surprise even the night secretion that was coming to my mouth during those 2 months simply disappeared. I went 3 times for acupuncture and from now on Xilin will be my to go person for acupuncture/herbs. Xilin never asked me to do a review, I am doing it because I am so grateful that she gave my life back and I hope I can help other people with the same problem to heal themselves. I feel totally fine, no more bloating of reflux.

I went to my Primary Care Physician who prescribed pain killers, muscle relaxers and physical therapy. After 2 months of this treatment I was still in incredible pain and the doctors were suggesting shooting cortisone into my spine and if that didn't work spinal surgery. I was at wits end and decided to look into alternatives. I found Dr. Shu and after examining me he told me that through acupressure, cupping and herbal medicine, he would be able to help me. I saw him 3x per week at first and I started seeing improvement almost immediately, then it was reduced to 2x per week, then 1x per week. After 2 months I was 90% healed. I honestly thought that I would be in some sort of pain for the rest of my life, but Dr. Shu remedied that. I highly recommend Dr. Shu.

Their Oakdale office is aesthetically pleasing - very modern and refreshing. It is extremely clean, always smells good, and offers several amenities to take advantage of in the waiting area including tea and a selection of interesting reading materials to flip through (not the standard expired celebrity magazines you're used to seeing - and ignoring). I usually see Dr. Drew who specializes in sports and orthopedic related acupuncture. Whether I've been experiencing aches and pains in my neck and/or back from sitting at my desk at work all day, or my knees and feet are feeling tight and fatigued from exercise, Drew always provides the perfect treatment - acupuncture and massage or cupping - to relieve my pain. I always feel 120% better afterwards. And that's not all! I always leave my acupuncture appointment feeling extremely relaxed - the calm, meditative atmosphere experienced during a session yields mental benefits as well as physical ones. It forces you to take some time to slow down and relax which I really appreciate. The staff at M & R Acupuncture really cares about the well-being of every single patient and is determined to help you feel your best by managing your specific symptoms. The treatment doesn't stop at the door - Rory, Meg, and Drew are all very dedicated to their craft and your health - they are easy to talk to and are always willing to chat and suggest best practices related to nutrition, herbal medicine, stress reduction, and more, to help create lasting results and healthier lifestyles.

Dr. Wang is a kind-hearted doctor who really cares for his patients. When I first came to him, I…read morewas an emotional mess dealing with anxiety and PTSD. I had just recently had a major trigger and was experience a strange breathing problem where my breaths would just stop whenever I tried to go to sleep at night. My heart was also skipping beats 24% of the time (reading from my heart monitor) and my Cardiologist insisted that I needed to have surgery (Cardiac Ablation). I had seen several different doctors and specialists who all had no answers about my breathing issues and they hid behind their skepticism of whether I was even truly having those symptoms. Dr. Wang, however, was honest and didn't claim to have the answer himself, but he shared his own personal story of when he was once a young man who struggled with something similar. He had a suspicion that all my symptoms might have shared the same source of problem - anxiety. So he said, "Let's give it a try." After just the first treatment, that night was the first night in 3 weeks that I was able to sleep more than 5 hours. I slept for 7 whole hours. Then on the next night, I slept for 8 hours and knew that it could not have just been luck. The acupuncture was working. So I immediately called him to schedule another appointment right away, and another, and then another. I wound up seeing him 3x a week for about 3 weeks. That was all it took for me to see all my symptoms go away about 85-90%. No more need for heart surgery. And during that whole time, he did not try to prescribe me any herbs. When I had asked why, he simply said that he wanted to wait and see. That showed me that he was genuinely trying to do the right thing for me and not simply trying to make more money. This was my first real acupuncture experience and I walked in as a skeptic. But I can honestly say that I'm a believer now. And I trust Dr. Wang.

Another women was prepared to give me my massage; however, since I saw that the other woman was there and I know she did a great job the last time I was set on having her. I requested her and the lady who was going to do my massage said " you go". I said "I'm so confused, you want me to leave" she said yes. I thought maybe she didn't understand English so I asked her "do you understand English?" and she replied "yes". When I proceeded to walk out she said "you go?" I said "you just told me to leave, why would I stay, I just want the other woman that was just here to do my massage". I gave her the benefit of the doubt that she did not understand English well. She proceeded to call the woman, or so I think she did, because she was speaking in another language. When she got off the phone she said very rudely "NO, LEAVE!" At this point I was just annoyed. I was very patient in trying to understand what the issue was; however, I decided it was not worth it to invest my money into a business that asked me to leave. Poor customer service today, very disappointed. Happy Yelping :)
