My mother, Pilar, had been in excruciating pain due to fused discs, and sciatica. All her life she relied on traditional medicine and medical practice for pain relief. After spinal "block" injections, and pain pills no longer worked, she began to feel like giving up and cried morning and night. She was ready to try anything for pain relief. My sister, Berta, looked up acupuncture. She connected with Dr Steven Chasens. After an initial consultation, Dr Chasens explained he could do six treatments and that if that did not yield results, he could not go any further. After the 4th treatment my mother returned without needing her cane, and after the sixth treatment -SHE WAS PAIN FREE!! This was about 3 years ago, and the pain has not returned! I've been so impressed with the healing art of acupuncture (nothing else worked for her) and specifically, Dr Steve Chasens at Coral Gables Acupuncture, that I speak about it frequently to friends and others who are suffering with pain. Do yourself a favor, research acupuncture and don't waste time. In South Florida check out Dr Steve Chasens, and give acupuncture a try!! read more

I come all the way from Aventura - it's that good! They help me with my stress and physical issues.

I was not happy with my session but mostly because I was left to take a longer-than-needed acu-nap, calling out to the front desk to check in on time. When I went to check out, after being told I would pay $125 for acupuncture and cupping that I had to pay for full price without time for cupping - not my fault. My relaxing acupuncture session was ruined and I paid way too much for the services I received. read more

Regular sessions over the past year have helped me have better focus and health and less pain.

Been coming to this place since March. Never been a fan of needles, but Dr. Chasens made me feel at ease from day one. All of the doctors are thoughtful and kind, listening and offering a sincere ear. I'm so grateful to have come here. It has changed my life. read more

Wound healing at its best. In December 2022 I had to undergo foot surgery for a ganglion cyst. It was a long journey of an unhealed and painful post surgical wound. If it wasn't for the magic of Dr . Steven Chasens at Coral gables acupuncture this quite possibly may not have healed correctly. Acupuncture absolutely worked. read more

Almost two years ago, I started having unbearable pain in my 50+ heels. This condition affected my whole life. I couldn't wear my favorite shoes, exercise or dance with my hubby. I decided to give acupuncture a try and contacted Coral Gables Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine. The staff is efficient, professional, and always on time. The office has free valet parking too! It was easy to schedule the first free consultation, and best of all after three treatments, I feel 80% better. There are days that I am completely pain-free. I am looking forward to completing my treatment for a full recovery. read more

I went in totally not knowing what i would get after seeing rave reviews here and on google. SO I came in and got treatment for many issues I've been having since my surgery in July. The doctor I saw was really nice and explained the treatment and what to expect. He pinned me up and I laid there for about 40 minutes. He recommended some herbs which I take now.. I can't say I felt anything at first but when I got home, I felt a lot better, so much so that I ended up doing like 20 laps in my pool at home which I haven't done ever in the 3 years I lived there so that was impressive. The next morning I called and booked 16 sessions so I am excited to see what else happens. I'll keep you posted. read more

Dr Blake is amazing!!! My girlfriend has seen him twice already, he is so understanding and patient. He listens! And most doctors nowadays don't do that. He has a calm spirit and the energy that he gives off is so peaceful. read more

I first started going to Coral Gables Acupuncture last year, seeking relief from insomnia and lower back pain. I was worn out and miserable from this double whammy. Pain meds and sleeping pills were out of the question because I use my brain for a living. Fortunately I ran across a flier announcing an acupuncture presentation at the library, given by Dr. Steve Chasens. After just a few minutes of the presentation, I knew I found a good practitioner. Dr. Chasens is very knowledgeable and direct. He made up a treatment plan specific to me. I started to experience some relief almost immediately. I continued going as long as he recommended, and now I am in much better shape: I sleep well and I feel great. There are several other acupuncture physicians in his practice, and a variety of treatments including acupuncture, herbal medicine, and massage. They are all available to you. I have received acupuncture before, and I must say IT WORKS. Dr. Chasens and his associates are one of the best practices I have encountered. They provide exceptional attention in a very relaxing environment, and are supported by a great staff. If you are experiencing pain or any condition--physical and/or mental--that prevents you from living to your fullest, call them up and schedule an appointment right now! read more

After 6 therapies my hot flashes have decreased about 70%... I'm taking herbs which help a lot. Husbands neck and shoulder pain have gotten SO MUCH better! It's very rare now that he gets the debilitating headaches. Dr Chasen is great!! read more

I've dealt with stress and anxiety for as long as I can remember. Lately, life just seems like it's throwing the punches too fast for me to handle. After consulting "Dr. Internet," I decided that acupuncture might be an approach that was worth trying. Coral Gables Acupuncture seemed to be the best and closest to me. Free consultation--can't hurt, might help. As soon as I walked into the office, I felt like I had made a good choice. There's spa/relaxation music and nature sounds playing, and there's water or hot tea. The staff--I've met about five office staff--are all very warm. They act like they are there for you, as opposed to you are interrupting their work. It feels and looks like a doctor's office, but less clinical and cold. I met Dr. Chasens and we spoke for about an hour. I felt comfortable enough with him to ramble on about the mix of stress/anxiety/digestive problems that I was sick of having. He listened, he looked at my tongue, and he said that acupuncture, along with proper diet, sleep, exercise, should be very effective (I'm just saying, it's not a magic cure--you have to hold up your end.) After the first session, I felt like I had been buoyed up--skipping over the ocean like a stone, as the song goes. After six sessions, I feel effing great. I don't dwell on things, like something that I said to somebody that didn't come out right, or the flat tire I got the day before that added an unexpected delay and expense to my day. I'm writing such a long post because, if, like me, your cup runneth over with stress/anxiety, you should stop worrying about it and try something totally different. People will laugh at you-- my mother did. People will get upset with you for no real defined reason-- my husband was...but not anymore! Now that he sees how much better I feel, he's super supportive. I'm so glad that I took the chance and invested in this treatment. read more

What a fantastic doctor. He gets to know you as a person and is very professional. The office staff is very friendly also

This was my first experience with acupuncture and I am quite pleased. I have had chronic lower back pain for several years. The treatments have alleviated my pain, reduced my stress levels and therefore increased my quality of life. The staff is extremely professional. They make sure that you get both a reminder call as well as an e-mail to ensure that you don't forget your appointment. I also appreciate that the fact that when you arrive you are seen almost immediately. This is a rare when it comes to doctors' appointments. I also love the fact that they have great hours that can accommodate just about every schedule. I have no reservations in recommending Coral Gables Acupuncture . read more

I recently started acupuncture sessions to help me with an injury that I'm still dealing with as well as other important health concerns and I can't even believe how quickly I'm progressing. It's been five years minimum that I can sleep through the night, since I started going on my very first session I haven't had insomnia. My mind is clear, I'm energized and I don't wake up feeling tired. My injury doesn't hurt as much and my allergies seem under control. The zen feeling you get the moment you walk in to the office helps me disconnect. I love the staff, the dr is amazing, so we'll versed, great pedigree. I recommend to everyone, it's the real thing people. SG read more

Relief from pain. Relaxation. I was neither a sceptic or true believer my first session but the relief from a few needles placed expertly by Steve Chasens convinced me. I came for a couple months and got my mobility back. I even had no pain after two ten hour flights! If you have had acupuncture before you will feel at home and if you've never tried it before they are friendly, welcoming and most importantly effective! The staff is great too! read more

Very shortly after I wrote my negative review Ivana (below) contacted me in order to get me off of this mailing list. She was so nice, respectful and apologetic! When she couldn't find my email (because I gave her the very old one that was signed up) she really investigated into the problem and sent me all of the email chains from the appropriate systems. The customer service here is definitely top notch. The ordeal jogged my memory and I actually did get a massage here years ago and it was amazing! I'm going to go back in the New Year and give Coral Gables Acu another try! read more

I have been seeing Doctor Chasen for 2 months now to get treated for Bell's Palsy that I've had for two years now. I had pretty much given up as I had tried everything to get better and back to my normal self. After my first visit with Doctor Chasen he made me feel at ease and told me not to worry that with the proper treatment and traditional natural medicine, I was going to be just fine. I had my doubts as nothing I did worked for me in the past, but as I started seeing him more and more, I started noticing the change in my face and was thrilled that I finally came to the right place. Its been only two months, and I'm 5% from having my full smile back which is what I always wished for. I'm more than ever extremely optimistic that I will fully recover with his help!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Doctor Chasen!! He is truly an amazing individual. He honestly, likes to get to know his patients very well and makes you feel very comfortable around him. Doctor Chasen is also very professional and has a great friendly staff. Sincerely, Laida Garay read more

Went in with my back hurting so bad I could barely walk, after a couple of treatments ran a PR in a race. Love it!

I have been late in writting this review because of work and other responsibilities. Dr. Chasen and the rest of the Doctors and staff at this office really go the extra mile to help you feel at home and are very attentive to your needs. If you want the best in professional service this is the place to go !!! GIVE THIS PLACE A TRY!!!!!!! I am finding the relief I need here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

After 5 years of searching for a solution to my back pain I finally had to give something new a try. I decided on Coral Gables acupunture because of their professional reputation in the community. I was not disappointed. I first met with Dr. Chasens who was generous with his time and explanations of my problem. He suggested a very short course of treatment to see if I would respond. Thank goodness I did! I am continuing to improve. The convenience of the office hours and location was helpful in allowing me to continue care - they are open 6 days a week 10 hours a day! If you have pain give them a try first! read more

For years now I've been trying every avenue to figure out a reason and treatment for my constant fatigue. I'd been to numerous doctors who ran tons of tests but never found anything. And if nothing showed up on their tests, then there must not be anything wrong with me...that's the response and feeling I kept getting time after time. Since conventional doctors weren't working for me, I started doing my own research on alternative medicine, natural remedies, etc, determined to figure it out on my own. I decided to give acupuncture a try. I first went to a center in Miami Beach for 2 sessions (with a groupon) and didn't find much of a difference. The idea was still interesting to me so I decided to try a little closer to home and found Dr. Chasens. I went in just planning to try the free consultation to hear what he thought about my case. After sitting down with him and going over my entire history, I felt he was really eager and optimistic about solving my dilemma. So I stayed for my first treatment and have been going every week since. I've been feeling markedly better. Still not as energetic as a 27 year old should be, but I also don't have the really drastic fatigue I used to feel on a regular basis. Besides feeling the difference, the main and most important reason I keep going back is that I feel Dr. Chasens sincerely wants to help. After years of going to doctor after doctor who never looked further than test results, I cant begin to explain how refreshing and hopeful this is. I cant speak for him but to me it feels as if he enjoys the challenge of the puzzle, and to have someone like that in your corner is really wonderful. It gives me the hope that one day I'll completely have the fatigue under control...something I never had while trying doctor after doctor. Aside from the treatments themselves, the staff is always nice and courteous. And I always get seen in a very timely manner. I dont think I've waited more than 10 minutes before. And for reference, I just had my 6th treatment. In a little over a month I've been able to feel a big difference in something I've been trying to fix for years! And I am confident it will keep getting better! read more

Going to see Dr. Chasens is the best thing that I've done for myself in a longtime. He has great bedside manners and he knows exactly what you need just by listening to you and really taking the time to get to know you as a patient. He took his time with me during the initial consultation and every session has been a pleasure. I can say that my stress level has significantly decreased and I no longer eat out of anxiety. All his recommendations are realistic and always manageable in your daily life. I highly recommend Dr. Chasens and his fantastic staff at Coral Gables Acupuncture. Go for the consultation and I promise you- it will really change you. Nathalie read more

I had my first appointment at Coral Gables Acupuncture this past Saturday with Dr. Chasens. He is so kind, caring, understanding, and hardworking. After he assessed my condition he explained why acupuncture would be helpful and how long the treatment would last. He told me that he was very optimistic that acupuncture would help my symptoms but not to expect a miracle overnight. Well, not to discredit the good doctor, but he was wrong. His expertly placed needling work made me feel better not overnight, not in 48 hours, not in a week, but instantly! As soon as he finished inserting the final needle I proceeded to enter a new plane of existence where I was so calm, relaxed, and centered for the first time in 6 months. I'm not one to believe in these sorts of things (I'm a firm believer in medicine and hospitals, etc.) but this really works. The office is calm and relaxing and the staff is so sweet and patient. I can't say enough wonderful things about my experience there. I'm going back tonight to receive manual therapy, which I'm sure will be just as excellent as the acupuncture. If you're skeptical, try it once. It doesn't hurt, it gives you a chance to break away from the stress of the day, and it feels great. You're in good hands at Coral Gables Acupuncture. Trust me! read more
