Dr. Zhao is amazing, and if you've ever had ANY persistent issues Id recommend visiting her tbf. I…read morestarted seeing her for extremely painful and irregular periods relating to endo. Traditional docs had told me there was nothing to do anymore. From the first visit, she listened to everything I had to say and examined me, then we immediately began treatment. She estimated 2-3 months minimum of treatment before Id be better, and she's consistently checked in on progress and made modifications as needed. I felt better in a week, and could see/feel even more results within the first month. 4 months later and I am baffled at the results. My quality of life has *massively* improved and its all thanks to her. She has a wonderful, kind bedside manner that makes you feel at ease, heard, and taken care of. The office staff are always helpful, kind, and wonderful to chat with too!!! If you're on the fence, please go see her!! :]

Dr. Zhao is amazing. I went in with low expectations - having battled with migraines for 25 years…read more But I thought what else could I lose, having tried every supplement and prescription I had access to. Since starting acupuncture in January 2026 I have not had a migraine since. I've had some mild headaches here and there (days I forgot to drink enough water, or ate garbage), but not my dreaded 3-4 day stuck in bed with all the lights off migraine terror. It's really been amazing. I'm now working with Dr. Zhao on all the other issues I've ignored for so long. The weird tennis elbow/carpal tunnel pain, insomnia, the random chronic things that I just learned to live in pain with. For new patients, you will go into a consultation and then almost seamlessly transition right in to treatment. So a consultation lasts like maybe 10-15 minutes and then the acupuncture (depending on what you have going on) may take 45 minutes. If you just want the consultation, no treatment, you will need to be very clear about this. Dr. Zhao is ready to work, so if you do NOT want treatment you'll need to speak up. My insurance unfortunately does not cover acupuncture ( I have an HSA) so I pay about $185 for cupping and acupuncture per session. I know with other insurance it would be about $15 co-pay. I recommend Dr. Zhao to everyone.

A singers Voice Restored Just in Time for Competition…read more Dr. Anna is an exceptional acupuncturist and healer. My teen daughter, a dedicated soprano, lost her voice completely on Tuesday morning from a sudden bout of cough and laryngitis--devastating timing with a major vocal competition looming on Saturday, complete with challenging repertoire.  We were fortunate to see Dr. Anna on Wednesday evening. She treated my daughter with such care, expertise, precision, care and intuition.  She not only addressed the symptoms but made my daughter feel supported and hopeful. Following Dr. Anna's treatment and careful vocal rest, my daughter was able to warm up and sing confidently on Saturday -- and even placed in the competition! Considering where she started earlier in the week, that outcome was nothing short of amazing. We are deeply grateful to Dr. Anna for her skill and compassion. We love her practice and highly recommend her to anyone seeking thoughtful, effective care. We are endlessly grateful for her practice and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone, especially performers needing gentle, effective healing.

Sharing this on behalf half of Nathan. I have visited Lina…read moresix times since April 2026, and she has quickly become my go-to acupuncturist for muscle and joint pain, especially involving the ankles, knees, shoulders, and back. Her treatment approach feels truly unique, thoughtful, and highly effective compared to other experiences I've had. I initially came in seeking relief for ongoing back pain. What impressed me most was how she focused on relaxing and treating both lower legs, which in turn relieved tension throughout my entire back area. The connection she identified and treated was remarkable, and I experienced noticeable relief surprisingly quickly after the session. Her ability to identify the root causes of discomfort, rather than simply treating the symptoms, demonstrates both deep expertise and a holistic understanding of the body. She is incredibly patient, attentive, and knowledgeable in her practice. She takes the time to listen carefully, explain the treatment process, and make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. I never feel rushed during appointments, and she always answers questions thoroughly. Her communication skills, professionalism, and genuine compassion create a welcoming and reassuring environment that immediately puts you at ease. What stands out even more is her dedication to her patients' long-term well-being. She pays close attention to subtle changes in symptoms and adjusts treatments accordingly. It is clear that she is passionate about helping people heal and improve their quality of life. Her treatments not only address pain but also promote better mobility, circulation, relaxation, and overall balance. After each visit, I leave feeling not only physical relief, but also a greater sense of relaxation, balance, and overall well-being. The improvements have been consistent enough that I now look forward to my appointments, knowing that I will leave feeling better than when I arrived. If you are dealing with persistent pain, muscle tightness, stress, tension, or sports-related discomfort, I would absolutely recommend giving Lina a try. She has earned both my trust and loyalty, and I'm very grateful to have found such an exceptional practitioner. Skilled, caring, professional, and genuinely committed to her patients' health, she is one of the best healthcare providers I have worked with.

After a couple of more visits, back pain was almost gone but all of a sudden, on 02/18 my tight bone (femur area) area got swollen and the pain was unbearable, not able to sleep or walk... as a diabetic.

He said that I probably should walk my dog after one more treatment on Tuesday. I wanted to express my appreciation that I told him I'd like to present something.
