I have been using TCM and other forms of Alternative/Complimentary medicine since 1991. It took me some time to find someone like Dr. Zhang after moving to Portland in 2006, and I have been a patient of Dr Zhang's since 2006. There is no shortage of TCM practitioners in the Portland area, but there are very few practitioners with the knowledge, skill and ability of Dr. Zhang. I have been with a wide variety of TCM Practitioners in the Reno, NV and Portland, OR areas since 1991, and Dr. Zhang is the most complete practitioner that I know. It takes a lot to be a full fledge Practitioner of TCM. A TCM practitioner knows that it is the body that heals itself, and they are just there to assist you and your body. There are skills needed in Acupuncture, Chinese herbs, Moxibustion, Cupping, Gua Sha, Massage ... TCM is based in Taoist Philosophy, and guided by the understanding of Yin/Yang and Five Element Theory. There is no cause and effect in TCM which is hard for most Westerners to understand. Also, there are no coincidences, and all things are linked. Health is a state of well-being, and your body's natural rhythm in harmony. When we are out of balance, out of harmony, things/symptoms start to appear. There is a direct link between your symptoms with your sleep, digestion, emotions, thoughts, vitality, energy (physical, emotional and mental clarity) nutrition, ... and your health. All symptoms of ill-being are related to a state of imbalance in Yin/Yang and the Five Elements in your being. It is the job of a TCM practitioner to listen, observe and help direct the body back into a state of harmony and well-being. I have come to find a significant difference in practitioners in terms of how they apply their knowledge, skills, understanding, intuition and overall view of TCM. Practicing any form of healing/medicine is more than just skill; it is also a fine art. It takes a rare individual to be good at all of them. Dr. Zhang is one of those individuals. First off, he is compassionate and caring, and an excellent communicator. He listens to and observes his patients extremely well, and is able to understand/link together their signs of imbalance. He has a deep and innate understanding of the Taoist Philosophy and parameters which guide TCM. Dr. Zhang is an artist when it comes to acupuncture. When he places needles, he feels the energy pattern in the body, sensing the needles release and the subsequent flow of energy in the body. Likewise, he is an excellent Chinese Herbalist. He does not use preformed sets of herbs, but rather formulizes a remedy from individual components to meet your specific state of ill-ease. His knowledge of Chinese herbs is akin to his understanding and application of acupuncture. Dr Zhang's TCM Clinic is a wonderful atmosphere for healing. His intuitive interior design of the building helps to ensure a calm feeling, and produce a sense of healing. In a typical session with Dr. Zhang, you will receive acupuncture. You can expect to be lying on the table for 30-40 minutes while the needles do their thing. Depending on your physical, emotional and/or mental need, he may also make you a batch of Chinese Herbs to assist your body in finding its natural rhythm, and getting you over the hump per se. You might receive a Cupping to unlock blocked energy, a light massage to stimulate energy flow, or be given a Moxibustion stick for later use. Regardless of what you receive, you will leave feeling a change. Sometimes, another session is needed in a few days to reinforce the treatment. Otherwise, it would be 2, 3, 4 weeks or more before you see Dr. Zhang again. TCM is good for helping us feel better from many symptoms. TCM is even more powerful when we utilize it to keep our self in a state of well-being and vitality. Hence, visiting a TCM practitioner on a regular basis to stay tuned up is preferable over stopping in for symptom relief. I highly encourage and recommend Dr. Zhang to anyone wanting to improve their health and state of well-being. Dr. Zhang has helped me get back into a state of well-being, stay balanced, as well as recover from multiple joint surgeries and physical injuries. Having Dr. Zhang in my life is a huge plus. I live quite a distance from Dr. Zhang's TCM Clinic (45 minutes). I am more than willing to travel the long distance because of who he is and the quality of his TCM care. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Haosheng for several months. Thank God I have found him. I suffer from an auto-immune disease that is rare. Basically, my muscles are in constant inflammation and cause my muscles to tighten up so bad I can hardly move.. I have gone through a lot of medicine in the past 5 years and most of it was not pleasant. Prednisone in large doses which make you sick after a while; Imuran which made me violently ill; Methotrexate that caused diahrhea so bad I couldn't get off the toiled. It was a living hell. My body couldn't take any more medications and started to reject what I was being given Finally I decided to try an alternative treatment. I went searching for a Naturopath that specialized in Asian medicine and acupunture and I found Dr. Haosheng. When I called the office, Dr. Haosheng answered the phone himself. I explained who I was; what I had; and what I was looking for. I made an appointment with him and my journey began. I have found that Dr. Haosheng knows exactly what he is doing and how to treat my ailment. We have combined acupuncture along with some Chinese herbs and a healthier lifestyle for my treatment with room to ventuer into other areas of his expertise. The acupuncture that Dr. Haosheng has performed on me has worked miracles. My muscles are to the point due to Dr. Haosheng, that I can resume living again. If it wasn't for his expertise, I would be suffering greatly. This man is one of the nicest, kindest and gentlest people I have ever met. He speaks to you, not at you. He treats you with respect and dignity and listens to what you have to say. And is an expert at acupuncture. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Haosheng to anyone that is experiencing muscle issues, arthritis, or any other physical ailment you may have. I truly believe that Dr. Haosheng can help you. He has done miracles for me and I will be forever grateful to him for helping me to get my life back. Thank you, Dr Haosheng, from the bottom of my heart for all you have done for me. Your devoted patient, Laura Bell read more

You will find the best emotional and physical healing beyond Dr. Zhang's doors. I cannot recommend his practice highly enough. I had unbelievable pain in my wrists and elbow from working in a kitchen for six months. The continuous chopping, lifting and washing aggravated an incredible tendonitis which stemmed from the root of my hand to my upper back. The physical pain coupled with mental exhaustion of having no choice to endure the pain to pursue my living left, me feeling helpless and fearful of potential chronic pain. However, with Dr. Zhang's guidance and care I have been able to make a full recovery. I feel happier and healthier than I have in maybe five years. Dr. Zhang not only treats your physical ailments, but your mental and emotional state as well. After six months of treatment, he has welcomed me into his office beyond the point of patient, but as family. I feel truly blessed to call him my doctor, my friend, and mentor. If you are searching for the best acupuncture in Portland, you have found home. Make an appointment, you will not regret it. read more

I recently moved to Portland and suffered from a muscle tear to my abdominal that began to deeply impact my mood, as it limited nearly all activity and was not healing. I found Haosheng Acupuncture online and began receiving treatment about 6 weeks ago. Haosheng Acupuncture helped me recover and provided excellent care. I enjoyed my visits and Mr. Zhang creates a warm and entertaining environment conducive to healing. He offers attentive care and personalized attention in his work and herbal diagnosis. Mr. Zhang also takes time to answer whatever questions I may have. I am very thankful that this acupuncture clinic exists and I recommend it to anyway else using yelp as a way to find the acupuncture treatment they need. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Zhang if you are in need of acupuncture. The first time I visited the clinic and met him I knew I was in good hands. He is not only incredibly gifted in his application of acupuncture but his ability to read a person, their situation, and apply a course of treatment with both acupuncture and Chinese herbs - along with some good common sense - is what really helped me in the long run approaching and treating my condition. I have very high standards and expectations and I don't choose doctors lightly. Dr. Zhang met all, and exceeded them. The clinic itself is also a very calming and welcoming space with genuinely friendly staff and it's always a pleasure to chat with his lovely wife. read more

I've been to many acupuncturists through my life and Haosheng is the best I've found yet. Dr. Zhang is extremely competent and you can tell he really cares about you as a patient. Portland was fortunate enough to have kept him here after the NCNM brought recruited him from his home in China. I started seeing him over a year ago for Raynaud's - a condition that caused me to frequently lose circulation in my fingers and toes - and the combination of acupuncture and herbal medicine really helped. Now I'm having him help me with back pain and so far its helping. I'd say as far as acupuncturists go, he's the real deal and definitely worth a visit. read more

It's wonderful to walk into their clinic and have a lovely conversation with his wife, Lanhua, who is always sweet and kind. read more

I have been to 3 acupuncture clinics in Portland, this is by far the best. I don't treat any chronic areas in particular, but a few times I have had some temporary aches/pains & they were much improved the following day. My cycle has been regulated, and I rarely have headahces anymore. Dr Zhang is very friendly, knowledgeable, and doesn't waste your time asking you repetitive questions every session about your diet and daily routine (as others feel they need to). My daily energy level has improved, and I always feel totally relaxed when I leave the clinic. Highly Recommended read more

He is willing and able to help with any ailment that you may have going on. Dr. Zhang has been my doctor for about eight or nine years now and I have sent numerous friends to see Dr. Zhang.

Dr. Zhang is a VERY skilled doctor. His acupuncture and herbs have helped more than anything else with health I've been dealing with for 8 years.

It's a great feeling, knowing you have him on your side. read more
