After my ACL surgery, I was willing to try anything on top of my physical therapy to improve the recovery process. With physical therapy alone, I wasn't making enough progress with my flexion (range of motion). I read about the health benefits of acupuncture and, with nothing to lose, decided to give it a go. Six weeks post-op, I made an appointment with Danling through my work's Wellness Center. My first impression was very positive - she was very kind and understanding. I was also impressed by her knowledge about the human body and her approaches to treating its ailments. We spent 15 minutes for consultation and 30 minutes for acupuncture treatment. Her acupuncture treatment on the first day alone improved circulation, and reduced inflammation and pain. I continued to visit Danling's private practice in Sunnyvale for several weeks. With her help, my range of motion exponentially increased and inflammation became manageable. Danling's treatment helped me get back on track for recovery. I am grateful to have found Danling during my ACL recovery process. Highly recommend Danling to anybody seeking acupuncture. read more

My wrist has been hurting since April, and have tried different ways in the past few months, but it didn't really get better. I went to Danling for the treatment, she found my pain spot deep down and the root cause of the pain right away. After a few treatments combining acupuncture, electric stimulation, and massage, my hand feels a lot better now. read more

I have been visiting Danling Acupuncture for the past two IVF cycles and I highly recommend it. Dr Zhang was super experienced and caring. Besides great acupuncture skills, she also provided tons of emotional support. Because my AMH was super low (like around 0.5) I didn't expect good outcome and my mood was quite negative. But Dr Zhang took great care of me, gave me confidence and guided me through the hardship. The outcome was much better than I thought (a few euploids) and I really appreciate Dr Zhang's efforts. read more

I started seeing Danling before Covid for various health reasons and back/neck tension from prolonged sitting on the office chair. During covid, like everyone, I was concerned about in person visits so I stopped my visits but once I found out I was expecting my 2nd child, I quickly called her up to let her know I was feeling extremely nauseous and diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I started seeing Danling regularly (up to once/twice a week) and she applied needles to my ear to help with the nausea. Thanks to her I was able to get through my entire pregnancy period comfortably and baby was born healthy. I continue to see Danling regularly for health maintenance and will recommend her to anyone seeking acupuncture treatment. read more

Dr. Danling Zhang is the only Chinese acupuncturist I would recommend. I had two miscarriages in 2023. Then We started consulting IVF in 2024 but was unsuccessful for the first time. While I was taking a break from IVF and thinking if I need to try another round, I went to California to visit my family. They took me to visit Dr. Danling Zhang to see if the alternative medicine would help. When I talked to her, I immediately knew she is a good doctor. She was very knowledgeable and knew what she was doing! She prescribed me and my husband some Chinese herbs. After taking those herbs for a few months, I found out I was pregnant in July of 2024. My baby was born in March of this year. I am enjoying every moment with my newborns now! I would recommend Dr. Danling Zhang to every woman who has infertility concerns. read more

I came to have treatment few years ago for infertility. I had acupunctures for about a month 5-6 times and took the Chinese herbs she prescribed together. During that month, I had super bad insomnia that never happened to me before. Even I stopped the treatment and I still had insomnia often time. Few months later, my body was in weak condition and fast heart rate after constant insomnia, I checked and I got hyperthyroidism. I still Have not recovered after few years. After letting her know, she was very concerned and offered help to me. I hope her skills will be improved as time goes by. read more

re: Fertility Acupuncture After three year of trying to conceive and two failed IUIs with an Unexplained Infertility diagnosis, my husband and I had pretty much lost hope so I started googling alternatives. I read about the benefits of Acupuncture and decided to try, despite my massive fear of needles. tl;dr - I conceived the first month I visited and am extremely appreciative for Dr. Zhang's work, her honesty, and how approachable and helpful she is with any questions I had throughout the process. My first visit was cd6 (cycle day 1 is the first day of your full period) and she reviewed the blood work results from my REI doctor. One thing I really appreciated was that she said I should see results within six months, and that if it didn't work by then then continuing treatment would be unnecessary. She then treated me by placing 18 or 19 extremely thin needles into various points. I noticed that when I was tensed I could feel them go in (not pain, just feeling it), but when I relaxed I felt nothing. My second visit was the day before our IUI/ovulation and it went the same way. Two weeks later we found out we were pregnant and I came back for my pre-scheduled appointment. She reduced the number of needles and used different points, and I continued to come regularly until 12 weeks were completed. I'm so truly thankful for Danling Acupuncture and give my highest recommendation, especially for fertility acupuncture. read more

Dr Danling is amazing!! I have been going to her for various body pain ailments, and have seen amazing recovery. I have also taken treatment for infertility and was able to conceive successfully. She is very kind and helpful. read more

Wonderful bed side manner. I had seen many other drs without any results or correct diagnosis. After less than 3 mins I was amazed by her quick diagnosis after almost 18 months of frustration. I feel fortunate to be her patient. Thank you for all your care and help. read more

I went to Dr. Zhang for infertility treatments a couple of months before the pandemic hit. I only saw her for 3 sessions until the lockdown. Fortunately, I got pregnant two cycles after my last appointment (I've been trying to conceive for 1+ year). I don't know if it's with the help of acupuncture or pure luck, I'd still like to believe the few treatments I had with Dr. Zhang helped regulate my body for conception. Dr. Zhang is very knowledgeable in what she does and has an excellent bedside manner. She explained everything in detail which I appreciate because fertility stuff can be confusing. I highly recommend her for your fertility needs and I will definitely go back for my next pregnancy if needed. read more

I have been going to Dr Danling Zhang for two months now. Before going to her, I went to see at least 3 other Chinese doctors/ acupuncturists, and Dr Zhang is the only one that understands the illness that I have! I have Graves' disease and have related eye problems. Dr Zhang is very knowledgeable about the conditions that I have. The first time she tried acupuncture on me, it worked already. My eye couldn't close, and after she put in the needle, it could close better. She is the only acupuncturist that is so effective! :) She is such a great hope and blessing for me. Dr Zhang also gave me a herbal tea formula. It helped with my sleep and to relax. My eyes felt less dry as well. It's a process and Dr Zhang is very patient with me. I would highly recommend her to everyone! She is very kind, patient, knowledgable, sweet and effective! read more

I contacted Dr.Danling for infertility issues. I had 2 miscarriages in the past and started the IUI treatment. My first IUI failed and then I contacted Dr.Danling. Not sure if it was a coincidence or really acupuncture, I was able to conceive very next month and that too naturally. I continued her services during my first trimester and loved the way she guided me during that phase of my pregnancy. read more

I found Danling Acupuncture on Yelp when I was looking to try acupuncture to boost fertility. Five weeks later I was pregnant, and I continued seeing Dr. Zhang through my first trimester. Not only did I get results, but seeing her gave me peace of mind throughout the process. She shared insights on how the body works, tips to try to make it a successful pregnancy, and was just easy to talk to. Thank you, Dr. Zhang! read more

I spent sometime looking for a good acupuncture place and found this business. I was happy to see and use their online booking system. So i booked an appointment for a day on the weekend and then received a confirmation email and a text reminder with the person i would be seeing (Yawruey Chien) I showed up to my appointment and NO ONE was there. I waited and waited and no one ever showed up. I was able to reach someone from a number from their voicemail and that person did not know anything about my booking. She then expected me to wait while she called around to try to find someone to come in later in the day. I didn't have time and told her i would take my business somewhere else! I thought i found a place that was respectable and trustworthy. I feel very let down and disappointed. Very unprofessional business and flawed booking system. read more

I have been seeing Danling for almost 2 years now and she is by far the best acupuncturist I have ever met. Danling cares about her patients and will ask all sorts of questions in order to fully understand your symptoms before any treatments. I have been suffering from insomnia and indigestion for years and with her help, I am able to sleep at least 6 hrs straight per night and my stomach ache has also been greatly improved. And most importantly, her treatment doesn't hurt! You can fully relaxed and rest for an hour during the treatment and feel fully recharged after you wake up. I will highly recommend Danling to everyone who wants to get the best care and healing treatment. read more

Danling is kind and knowledgeable. She is very compassionate to your concerns and listens to the root of your problems. Acupuncture has been helpful for treating anxiety symptoms, and helped calm down some digestive issues that were plaguing me due to anxiety. The music she puts on during the treatment is very soothing. She's able to work with your schedule to help give you quality treatments for your condition. read more

Dr. Zhang is very knowledgeable and friendly. She listened to my concerns and I felt confident under her care. I'd done acupuncture before but was unfamiliar with cupping, she was gentle & made sure there was no discomfort during the process. I highly recommend Dr.Zhang if you're looking for a knowledgeable acupuncturist. read more

I've had acupuncture done by Danling a few times over the last year or so and she is the absolute best. After each session, I instantly feel the difference and I leave feeling sooooo much better. She has been practicing acupuncture for 30 years and is an expert through and through. I had acupuncture elsewhere a few times bc she didn't have availability and all other places I was treated do not even come close to Danling. Today, I was feeling high anxiety so I called her clinic and luckily she had an opening. While I was there, I also got treatment to improve digestion, help with trouble falling asleep, upper back and shoulder muscle pains, and to relieve stress. She worked her magic and placed the needles appropriately, and after, I had cupping done on my back. Again, as soon as my session was done, I felt instant relief. Not only is she an expert at what she does but she is also so friendly. If you need acupuncture done, look no further, Danling is THE BEST and I stand by that. I highly recommend her services!!!!! read more

Dr Zhang has been treating me for my heel pain for a month now. I've been suffering from heel pain for a few years now and I finally decide to see an accupuncturist since I can't bear the pain anymore. Since I've been treated, the pain level has gone down significantly from a 10 to a 3. She's really good at what she does and definitely know what she's doing. She's in network with cigna, united health and blue shield. read more

Dr Danling sincerely cares for the welfare of her patients. I went to her with a severe pain in my neck and shoulders. My neck was also stiff and I had a terrible headache- like a migraine. I was literally unable to move and had a long day ahead of me. Dr Danling first used acupuncture and relieved me of the stiffness and pain in my shoulders. My neck still hurt, so she used a scrubbing technique to relieve me of that. When she saw I was still suffering from my headache (which had been there for over 12hrs) she gave me another round of acupuncture on my feet. The one visit was life saving for me as a working Mum. I came out a happier person and felt energized. I was able to get the days work done efficiently and the rest of the week went smooth too. It's about 10days now and I don't have any pain. It has NOT returned. Thank you Dr Danling for your genuine concern and sincere effort to help me. read more

Dr. Zhang is very kind and patient, and she is very experienced with Chinese medicine and acupuncture. I went to see Dr. Zhang for a problem that had been bothering me for a long time. I had seen many doctors before her, but none of them could help ease the discomfort or even given me a clear explanation of the cause of my problem. The first time, I visited Dr. Zhang, she listened very patiently to my description of the problem history and various aspects of my health condition. Then she carefully examined my pulse and other physical features, and gave me an acupuncture treatment and a week's medicine. In the following weeks, I returned either to pick up another week's medicine or for an acupuncture treatment. Every time, she will carefully ask me again not only the progress of my condition and also my reaction to the medicine (how it affects my digestive system). And then she will carefully adjust the prescription accordingly. The acupuncture sessions were all very smooth and relaxing too. I really enjoyed them! She also taught me a few places that I could press on with my figures daily to help with my symptoms. Although I haven't completely recovered, I already started to sense some steady improvement overtime, and my body is regaining strength. I would definitely recommend Dr. Zhang! read more

After my first miscarriage, I started to see an acupuncturist, and she treated me for almost 2.5 years. During that time, I had another 2 miscarriages including IVF. Too stressing out and disappointing, I came to see Dr. Zhang as a second opinion because I had nothing to lose. Dr. Zhang combined acupuncture with her special formula herbal to treat me. Dr. Zhang planned my treatment based on my cycle to help maximize the probably of getting a healthy pregnancy. She understood my problems well and knew what need to be done. She did a wonderful job, and I got pregnant after 3 months. Combining her care and my other western doctors' care, I had a beautiful and healthy baby boy, and he just turned one year old. This review is long overdue. I have been so busy with my son and worked and didn't remember to write a review for her. My husband and I couldn't thank her enough to help us to have a family. Thank you again, Dr. Zhang. We really appreciate what you have done for us. If you ever need an acupuncturist, Dr. Zhang should be the one to see. She is very knowledgeable about acupuncture and a lovely caring person. You will not be disappointed. read more

Dr. Zhang is an amazing doctor. She helped me through my IVF process and I am successful after 1 round of IVF cycle. It had been a stressful journey. Dr Zhang has many years of experience in treating patients seeking fertility treatments. I found her treatments relaxing so very often I would doze off in her office during a session. Dr Zhang is also very understanding and offers​ a lot of advice which help me get through this journey. I would recommend anyone who is going through fertility treatments to work with her. read more

I had wrist injury from helping my baby nursing while I held him in the football position using my hand to keep his tiny head close to my chest. It actually uses the same group of muscle as texting on the cell phone, the overuse of the thumb. It became so painful that it turned into something called "De Quervain syndrome". I tried massaging it at another place and I ended up having my fore arms bruised all over the places. Dr. Danling was able to cure my condition in a few visits, without the pain. She was also really nice and made me feel like she is a friend. Defiantly want to go back if I have other similar issues. read more

I found Danling through Yelp and have been seeing her for about six months. She is very patient, caring, and thorough and will take her time to answer any questions you have. Danling is trained in Western and Chinese medicine and teaches at Five Branches University. I see her mainly for thyroid and digestive issues. Ever since getting treatments from Danling, my mood, energy and digestion has gotten better. My thyroid blood work is coming back normal and we are still working on controlling the size of my thyroid nodules. Danling really cares about her patients and does not insist on any unnecessary treatments. I'm so grateful that I found her! read more

I've been having some neck pains that chiropractors have been unable to cure, i couldn't sleep at night the pain was so excruciating so a friend of mine recommended Danling Acupuncture. Dr Zhang asked many questions about my eating and life style habits which explained why i had so much tension and stress. i received both acupuncture and moxa-wool moxibustion. then made a follow up appointment which i felt like i didn't need since the pain was 100% gone the next day! Went for the follow up anyway 3 days later and i don't know what was in those needles but i was on a happy high for quite a while. 6 months later i came back because i started to get stress in the same spots again because my new school schedule. immediately after i left the clinic, i already felt a huge difference. i usually hate needles but here, this acupuncturist are really calming and sensitive so i've never freaked out. whatever it is you have, acupuncture always cures. i always recommend this place to close friends and family. read more

My husband and I had a bad car accident last year. Both of us had to get injections to help with the pain. Danling helped us a lot with the pain management and her accupuncture helped us gain the control and strength back from the nerve damages. Without her treatment, we would probably end up getting a surgery. Every time, we walked out of her clinic after the treatment and felt so refreshed like a new person. I have recommended her to some of my friends who suffered from infertility or sleeping problems and they all had great experiences with her. read more

So glad that I found Dr. Danling through Yelp in Sunnyvale! She is a very nice, honest, and warm person. I told her that I've had difficulty getting pregnant for almost two years and want to try other treatments before my OB transferred me to infertility center. Dr. Danling asked me several questions and gave me acupuncture and herbal treatment to help me relieve my stress. She also gave me some advices that are very helpful for pregnancy. I'm finally pregnant after seeing Dr. Danling. Highly recommend!!! read more

Dr, Danling Zhang is smart and has excellent skill in both acupuncture and Chinese traditional medicine. I went to Dr. Zhang after I had had long term pre menopause bleeding problems for one and half year and when my primary physician advised to take off my womb. But I do not like the surgery. During one year period, Dr. Zhang helped me a lot. The small needles have magic power in her hand. Sometimes she stopped my bleeding effectively while other times she used the needle to make the blood clot come out. Now my bleeding problem is almost over and I am sure I do not need the surgery. Later, I found out that my blood pressure was a little higher. She gave me a small bottle of medicine and said I just need to take five small pills one time a day. The instruction on the bottle is showing three times a day. I doubted about whether one time a day was enough. Within five days after I took the pills, my blood pressure recovered to normal. Now, I went to Dr. Zhang for almost everything with my health issues. read more

I've been seeing Danling for about a months to address my chronic heel pain that has followed me for many years. I did physical therapy, cortisone shot, etc, nothing worked. I'm new to acupuncture but Danling has made it simple and I might have become addicted. She did not only acupuncture, but also something called moxibustion on my foot. My pain is gradually getting better. Danling is attentive and kind, her office is clean and welcoming, and the treatments really work. read more
