    Carmela is an incredibly skilled healer who has raised my quality of life significantly since I…read morebegan seeing her. I have multiple co-morbid chronic illnesses that leave me battling chronic fatigue, pain, migraines, depression, anxiety, etc. I have seen a consistent reduction in my generalize pain, an improvement in my mood, and she's taught me skills to help me cope with my anxiety attacks. She has even helped me with my allergies. Most dramatically, though: I've been using a cane pretty consistently for years because of pain and poor balance. In our last two sessions, Carmela has treated me using the Zhu scalp acupuncture technique and, as a result of this treatment, my balance has improved significantly and my reliance on my cane has been radically reduced, to the point that I mainly use it only for stairs or for occasions when I will be on my feet for an extended period of time (like the five hours I spent walking though a recent convention, for instance). I would highly recommend Carmela to my fellow Spoonies. She is thoughtful, caring, and very gifted at what she does.

    I felt defeated and hopeless. I had a relentless, rash all over for monthes - on my face, arms,…read morelegs and stomach like poison ivy that never healed. I randomly and frequently had my throat swell closed and my lips swell. I have to carry an EpiPen with my and Benadryl. I had been to two immunologist/allergists who could not help me. I had Alfa Gal from a tick bite and a secondary problem that my husband and I had found was seemed to be from sulfites found in many foods with preservatives. My son called me and suggested I try and alternative to get help with the Alfa Gal. He had spoken to his minister who also had had Alfa Gal and discovered there was a form of acupuncture that could help. He found Carmela Mager, who had 25 years of experience and had learned this particular form of therapy. We made the appointment which changed both our lives! Carmela informed us as to how she would treat the Alfa Gal ( which made me intolerant of beef, lamb and pork) and then gave me a list of things to avoid that may help. She prescribed enzymes and a probiotic which helped enormously. She told me to do some reading on sulfite allergy. I did! I found studies on it which matched my life! Within a week, I started seeing the rash slowly heal. The acupuncture not only got rid of the Alfa Gal but also my hips no longer hurt. I can now eat pork, beef and lamb again. I started to have more energy. I can garden as I love to do. I felt and feel GOOD! My husband has been doing most of the cooking lately. He says we are on this journey together. Carmela has made life better for us both. She has a wealth of knowledge and generously share it! Our great thanks to her! PWB

    I'm not sure what Abby is more passionate about: the art and practice of Chinese Medicine, or…read morehelping people feel better with a whole-person approach! She is so knowledgeable as a practitioner of Chinese Medicine - whether it's acupuncture, herbs, moxa, she knows each application and how to find a solution to whatever ails your body, inside or out. Chinese Medicine can be unfamiliar to some, but Abby makes her patients feel informed and comfortable with any procedure. Perhaps the best thing about working with Abby and Acupuncture & Apothecary is that she genuinely cares about sharing her practice with all - and has very creative ways to make treatment affordable and accessible, through avenues like her community room. If you are lucky enough to work WITH Abby, she is smart, hilarious and so kind. If you are lucky to be treated BY Abby, let's just say your body will thank you no matter if you visit to deal with pain, addiction, or just overall wellness. I personally recommend: fire-cupping, moxa (especially if you're not a needle fan), and Tibetan foot soaks.

    This clinic is clean and cozy, very nicely appointed and comfortable. So far, I've had 2…read moreacupuncture treatments and just this week, I tried the Tibetan foot bath. Both treatments I got were focused, smart, and helped the back pain I've been having. I'm looking forward to more treatments from Abby. I checked out the foot bath with a friend. SO GOOD! We sat in special heated massage chairs, Abby served us tea, and prepared the foot baths. It was relaxing and my feet felt tingly and soft afterwards. I will definitely be back and I'm already sending my friends to her website to reserve this special healing treatment.

    Dr. Qiu treated me 7 years ago (2013) when I was told I would need to take Synthroid for the rest…read moreof my life. My blood work showed a very weak thyroid (hypothyroidism) which left me without energy, cold and tired. After only a few months of treatment, my blood work was normal and has been normal all these years later. My other issue was PSVT which was causing me to have PVCs every 10 or so beats of my heart. After the same period of time I only rarely (maybe a few times a month) have PVCs - all these years later. I would have loved to stayed his patient if not for moving out of the area. It's a true testament to his skill that after 7 years I continue to benefit from his skilled application of accupuncture, herbal treatment, as well as tiu na. Dr. Qiu has such a gentle, attentive demeanor. He is a natural healer and I am so grateful for the health I now enjoy due to his healing! My life could have been so much different. Thank you Dr. Qiu!

    I don't usually write reviews, but I feel I must share my experience. Fang Mu is truly exceptional…read more My wife has been visiting her for different health concerns for many years, and Fang Mu has always been able to help. I personally became a true believer after my own recent experience. I had been dealing with pain around my kneecap for almost a year, and it was only getting worse. Doctors told me it was the beginning of arthritis and that pain medication would be the only way to manage it. Pills, ointments, and knee braces gave me only short-term relief. After just three sessions with Fang Mu, the pain almost completely disappeared. I now walk without any problems and feel like a new person. Fang Mu is highly skilled, caring, and dedicated. I cannot recommend her enough.

    I had intense painful migraines that lasted 24-48 hours on average once a month, for the past 30…read moreyears. Sometimes I'd go 2 or 3 months without one. Sometimes I'd have 3 in one month. These had multiple triggers, from large hormone drops during the beginning of monthly cycle, significant changes in barometric pressure, allergies, intense heat or snow starting, extreme changes in temperature, stress, sickness, sinus pressure and getting too overheated through exercise. No matter the doctor I saw, no one could help me with western medicine. The medicines prescribed to me actually hurt my body and put me at risk for heart attack and stroke. I was left to my own devices: mind tricks, coffee, Tylenol pm, hot showers, CBD and lidocaine topical creams, hot rice heating pads, sleeping with my fist to my forehead and weeping. I'd get through the migraine in bed, trapped in my mind, praying for sleep. On top of this, I dealt with family and peers not really believing the intensity of pain I was in and saying they knew better and it was all in my head. I've had family members (in laws) accuse me of having a drug overdose and faking for attention, while I was raising three small kids, rather than believe I was in pain, let alone help me. It has all made me stronger as a person but I do not wish this fate on my children. I've been called 'too sensitive'. I cannot help how my nerves and veins react to the environment. This is highly genetic with multiple women in the family line dealing with this. Yes, I've tried extreme elimination diets. The only trigger I find is wine, which I don't really consume anyway. Chiropractics did not help me either. The Chiropractor explained that it couldn't help hormone shifts. This methods helps more of the physical aspect of bones being misaligned. A coworker recommended this place to me 6 months ago because it helped her daughter with migraines. I was highly doubtful since many doctors hadn't been able to help me in the past. June 12th 2022 was my last migraine that had me in bed for 2 days and missing work. I started visiting Mu Acupuncture once a week. On one visit, I was planning on a trip to visit my son in college and knew that a migraine was starting that morning. I went in and explained I was having a migraine in real time. I was treated with acupuncture and sat in the dark room for an hour with the needles in place. Acupressure beads were then taped to my ears for massaging when needed. Cupping was performed on my back and neck. I explained that I was terrified the migraine would progress as I visited my son. The Dr. just smiled and said "Do not worry. You'll be fine." She then taped acupressure beads to my left thumb and said to press on these for the next 3 hours if needed. I continued on with my day, with my visit and my weekend and on into the next week perfectly fine. The migraine dispersed over those couple hours after treatment. I am awestruck and amazed. This is truly miraculous This has changed my life. I'm scared to even say this has worked because I feel like I'm in a dream and I'll ruin it if start believing the migraines are gone. It has been 5 months and I have not missed a day of work or a weekend because of migraine. I still feel pain come and go but it's managed at a different level. I'm feel happy and carefree. I enjoy every weekend. I am out brunching with friends and doing chores and relaxing. It's so wonderful!!!!!! Thank you thank you, Mu Acupuncture! I feel like a normal person again. I am enjoying every day as it comes.
