First let me start off by saying she is so sweet and her customer service and care is top tier. She…read morewas constantly making sure me and my other half were comfortable at all times and would encourage us to communicate if we weren't. The acupuncture itself worked for me, but not for my other half. I believe that it is truly dependent on anyone. My neck pain was brutal and almost felt like nerve pain. During the session it wasn't painful, it was a small pinch but nothing anyone can't handle. After we were finished, my neck was so relieved. It was truly like night and day. Regardless of the acupuncture not being for my partner, she said she would go back for just the cupping and not the needles. So I'm sure next time we are in need of either, this will be the place we go back to! The last thing I will say is that making the payment a sliding scale is so wonderful because everyone can experience this depending on their income! Which makes it inclusive which I really like! It says a lot about her as a healer and person. Try it out! Find out for yourself!

When I arrived here, the level of care I received was excellent and the price was super affordable. My neck pain went away after getting treatment here. Fast forward to 2026, I was in need of therapy for my neck again. It is definitely something with long flights and using pillows that I am not used to. Anyways, I should have called for a reservation because it is so busy here. I wasn't able to get the therapy this time, but I wanted to leave this long overdue review. The people here seems to really care about your well-being and treat you with kindness. They are located right next to the Waiola shave ice. There are several parking spaces.

(Review 3 of 2020)…read more How many people can say they found the GOAT of a particular field/practice?? (me me ME!! - waving hand in the air) I BELIEVE DR. MARTIN IS THE GOAT OF ACUPUNCTURE & MASSAGE!! First of all, wifey was lookin for any Dr nearby that could help me with my shoulder/neck/back pains & migrains. My work is very physical & labor intensive. She searched thru YP, BBB, references from personal contacts, etc. Finally she looked thru Yelp & found Dr. Martin with a 5 star rating & also found her on the BBB. I really hate needles, but was willing to try anything at that point cause the pain was that bad. The first time I went to her was around spring 2019. After the first treatment it felt like the pressure in my neck/shoulders was greatly improved. Now I see her at least every 2 weeks for maintenance. My migrains are few and far between. Before it was several times a month. I used to see different massage therapists & chiropractors, but I didn't feel like it was really helping in the long term. For me, Dr. Martin uses the needles, electro therapy (she zaps me - in a good way. hehehe), suction cups, heat therapy, & a few other stuff here & there. Time flies cause we get to talkin about what treatments she's doin, things goin on in our lives, & other stuff. She's like the funny Chinese Haole Auntie that you love to visit & chat with all the time. When I say Chinese Haole, I mean that very affectionately. She uses Chinese medicine & knows her stuff (she's been doin this for 35 years now) & she's Haole (a.k.a. Caucasian/White). After the first appointment, you can make your appointments online. I dunno how cause wifey does it for me. Wifey goes to Dr. Martin as well. We both love her cause she's good at what she does, very personable, her receptionist (Danielle) is awesome, & she really cares about fixing you up. My insurance covers acupuncture, so I only need to pay a small co-pay. Go check with your insurance to see if yours does too. Go see her & see for yourself what everyone is raving about! A Hui Hou!

If you've never experienced FST (Fascial Stretch Therapy) you are missing out! Windward Oahu is so lucky to have Leslie Wright! I've been practicing massage therapy for 28 years and can share with experience & confidence, this gal is skilled! I enjoyed my session soooo much, it was like having a soothing dance expertly performed on me. Oh, and she trained directly with the founders of FST for over a year! Don't let her young appearance fool you, she has been practicing for just under 20 years. This modality of assisted stretching is sooooo much more than improving muscle flexibility! Think joint health & range of motion and of course... fascia. I decided to try FST because I have chronic pain in my low back, hips, (including flexors) and read in an issue of "Massage Therapy"magazine that the gentle FST approach is VERY effective in improving my kind of issues. If you relate, GET A PACKAGE! Ill say it again, GET A PACKAGE! I cant wait for my next session with Leslie! Just gotta try it!

I honestly can't say enough good things about Phi Lan…read more I'm a veteran, and for years I dealt with constant back pain, monthly migraines, and other chronic issues. I had tried just about everything, and nothing really worked. After seeing Phi, my migraines are gone, my back pain is gone, and so many of my other issues have improved too. It honestly feels like a miracle. She's incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about her patients. If you're on the fence about trying acupuncture, I can't recommend Phi Lan enough.

After the course of treatment, I now only get them maybe once a month or two! A HUGE improvement if you ask me. One particular treatment where I had an active migraine, I could literally feel the pain leave my head as she moved the needles down to transition their flow (prickly sensation) to my feet- it was WILD. Not only did she help reduce my head pain and frequency significantly, but she always presented a very warm and welcoming environment. I'm not entirely a fan of needles, but she eased me into it, and ensured I was comfortable thru out the process (the heated bed helps). She always asked how each needle felt, if it needed more or less pressure, and offered to check in on me halfway thru the treatment. She also did some cupping, which was new to me, and help ease the tension coming down my neck and shoulders. Front desk staff are nice too, they remember you after a few treatments. Definitely recommend Phi Lan for any migraine treatment! She's the best!

I no longer need anything to help me walk. Everyone feels different about acupuncture, and some have fears. Deborah will take those fears away. I would at times go in to see her and ask for a Spiritual Tune Up. Her way of placing the needles would bring about visions for me that were exciting. If you are looking for a caring person, one that will listen to you and help you along the way Deborah J Barry is the way to go.

Or, if you've ever questioned the possibility of herbal supplements superseding pharmaceuticals. I have a debilitating illness that causes chronic pain and fatigue. No medications have helped, only hurt, with horrifying side effects. I was in really bad shape when I started with Soraya. I was skeptical and worried about the cost as my insurance didn't cover. However, what I found was RELIEF were there have been none for so long and at a very affordable price. Soraya worked with me on every aspect of my well-being. I take natural herbal supplements now, not pharmaceuticals. I see her twice a week for acupuncture. I also changed my diet and started doing yoga. I truly enjoy sound healing which Soraya also offers. I truly believe Soraya has saved my life! I still deal with an illness but I now have the tools to not only cope but to thrive. I even lost weight without trying, just following Soraya's guidance on being in a healthier and happier frame of mind. She helped me learn these things by explaining, checking in and truly caring, not by meeting for 15 minutes and writing a pharmaceutical prescription. If you are ready to feel better and be happier, give Soraya a call. Or meet her at one of her yoga classes if you just want to be healthier and happier. She truly cares. She is a God Send!

A New Decade and New Year has started and I can't help but gush about how much health restoration…read moreand maintenance that Dr. Michelle Hill has helped me through. I started seeing Dr. Hill, during my working career, when I was a bundle of stress and was suffering through several post-operative procedures (wrist, shoulder and knees). At each visit, Dr. Hill was able to pinpoint and release/relieve my aches and pains (well, sometimes it hurts more at treatment) BUT, I always walked out of the clinic feeling more relaxed and in less pain. Along with chiropractic adjustment or manipulation, she has used various alternative and complementary medical treatments on me such as massage, cupping and acupuncture. I have total confidence in her knowledge and techniques. Checking in for your appointment is easy and fast. Each patient is assigned a patient account number which you enter into the digital tablet located at the reception counter. There, you can select the points of pain or discomfort as well as level of pain on the human diagram so that Dr. Hill will have a "map" to your symptoms to focus on. But, even if you've selected "No Symptoms", Dr. Hill will find something which you might have overlooked and you'll feel better when she works on you. Once your information has been entered, just take a seat in her spacious lobby and you'll be called in shortly. What I really like is that Dr. Hill has ALWAYS taken me ON TIME! I've never stressed about waiting for my appointment time. Just being in her newly renovated office and clinic gives one a sense of tranquility and being in touch with the natural beauty of Hawai'i. Her treatment rooms overlook the Kawainui Canal and Lanikai Beach. Sometimes you can see or watch canoe paddlers or wind sailers as you wait in the treatment room(s). Dr. Hill and her staff are friendly and professional. Leilani is Dr. Hill's office manager and she can assist you through any billing issues and/or insurance claims. I have been retired for 8 years but still go to Windward Wellness Center as I believe in and have benefited from Dr. Hill's alternative medicine treatments that will see me well into a healthy and productive retirement for years to come.
