After a few visits, I was fully recovered. Also, Dr. Xu helped to boost my immune system with comprehensive treatments. My 2nd treatment was with Dr. Hu for my high cholesterol. I had high cholesterol levels before the treatment. After the treatments, my cholesterol level had dropped significantly comparing my blood test results 2 months ago. My family doctor was also surprised with the result! Thanks to both Dr. Xu and Dr. Hu!

Since then, my back has felt so much better after each visit, and I can move freely again for the first time in years. Waking up without feeling intense, numbing pain is now an everyday occurrence. I'm so glad I found Dr. Xu.

She was amazing! She wanted me to give her at least 3 months because acupuncture (and most eastern medicine) itself is not a fast treatment as your body has to adjust and slowly heal yourself from within. But also a women's eggs each cycle, are nurtured 3 months in advance. I conceived naturally by the end of month 3. My IVF doctor had given me a 7% chance at ever conceiving naturally but here I am today, with a healthy baby and it's all thanks to Jennifer! I plan on reaching out to her again soon to try for another miracle baby.

He is very compassionate, knowledgeable, patient, caring and very polite and nice to every client that goes into his practice.

All the times I went into his office basically bent over because I couldn't stand up straight, I walked out of there like nothing happened to me at all. No pain, nothing- like magic.

The acupuncture and cupping I received here in combination with chiropractic adjustments have made it possible for me to resume my day to day life.

I scheduled an appointment with Eastern Roots Wellness after confirming that they accepted…read moreinsurance, including my United Healthcare plan which covers acupuncture. I booked the visit a couple of weeks in advance, completed all required forms, and provided my insurance information. They also required full payment upfront, explaining it would be adjusted later to account for any copays or insurance coverage. When I arrived for the appointment, the receptionist immediately informed me that Eastern Roots was not in-network with United Healthcare and that I could instead submit an out-of-network claim. That was not an acceptable option, as out-of-network costs are significantly higher. It was clear the practice knew this in advance but failed to notify me until after I had driven over an hour to get there. When I requested a refund--since I was unwilling to proceed with a provider that misrepresented their insurance status--they refused, citing their 24-hour cancellation policy. However, I hadn't canceled the appointment; I arrived in good faith, expecting coverage. Only once I learned the true facts, which the clinic already knew, did I decline to continue. To make matters worse, the owner, Sarah Alemi, did not speak with me directly and instead sent an email referencing the cancellation policy. At this point, I have disputed the charge with my credit card company. I would strongly caution others to verify network participation and transparency before booking with this practice

My sister had the opportunity to try the acupuncturist I worked with and she had a great experience. Overall, she was happy with the care she received, and the response we received from Pulse. I just want to say thank you to Jackie and everyone at Pulse for reaching about to us about this matter and going above and beyond to make it right. I truly and wholeheartedly believe that the team at Pulse care about what they do, and most importantly they care about the patient experience. You can feel it in the first phone, from the moment you walk in the door, the treatment you receive, and even in their response to a less than ideal visit. Overall, we were very happy with their services, their response, and their professionalism. I can't wait to make my next appointment.

My mom was really reluctant to go and is now glad she did! This treatment center blends time-honored East Asian medicine with modern medical approaches, offering a more holistic path to healing -- finding the root of the issue not just managing symptoms. Dr. Parker was a GEM! She gave us a tour of their herbal dispensary, where they blend specific herbs to support internal healing, treating the body both inside and out. She shared how certain factors contribute to my back fatigue before starting my treatment. The acupuncture itself was a 2-3 on the pain scale, since I am ticklish, I did jump a whole lot. Acupuncture focuses on specific points to help restore balance and activate the body's natural healing mechanisms--it's like a reset. The cupping felt like a 1 on the pain scale. incredibly relaxing from start to finish. Cupping replenished the cupped areas with healthier blood flow, stimulating healing at a cellular level. Despite being ticklish, I didn't find either treatment painful. My mom received the same treatment for her leg and said she felt fantastic afterward. The clinic offers 1:1 professional acupuncture or discounted student-led treatments, making it accessible for all. My back feels amazing and I've had the best sleep in a long time. Parking is plentiful as well!

I was hesitant to begin acupuncture as I had had an experience a few years back that was negative. I decided to give it another go and I'm glad I did. Dr. Guo has run a very good practice. He responds to e-mails promptly and genuinely encourages open communication if patients have any questions or concerns. Within a few sessions, my injury has made remarkable improvements. It has taken deliberate effort to trust the process. In my experience, my discouraging moments simply came from forgetting where I started and why I was there. Sensitivity to the treatment varies by the person so expectations to be healed by a certain number of sessions are futile. I can attest that acupuncture DOES work and I would recommend it especially to people who have difficult to treat ailments.
