I am super grateful to come across Dr. Zhang's office with the highly recommended reviews. I had neck and head pains for about two weeks and I read and heard about acupuntcture and wanted to give it a try. My first session was painless and I came out so relaxed and rejuvenated and the pains are gone. I am also going through a wellness journey as being a woman and getting older. I am in my second session and plan to go weekly. I highly recommend Dr. Zhang for her expertise, care and knowledge of women's wellness. Thank you so much! I am enjoying acupuncture with the holistic experience I have been through with Dr. Zhang. read more

Doctor Joanna is so knowledgeable and is an expert in her field. I decided to go to her practice since she's open on weekends, and I'm so glad I did. She's very responsive and works around my schedule. After two sessions I was already feeling better. She offered me herbs I wasn't too sure about but decided to take a chance and again I'm glad I did! They're natural and have helped me more than any western medicine doctor or drug ever did. So glad I found her practice! read more

After completing two rounds of PT over the course of 7 months for tennis elbow I was making little progress. I'd had acupuncture before for back pain and thought I'd give it a try for my elbow. I was really missing playing tennis. I read all the wonderful reviews for Dr. Zhang and felt confident she could help. I'm so unbelievably grateful that I found her! I felt relief right away and over the course of my treatment the pain has retreated remarkably quickly. Her office space is very comfortable and I felt immensely cared for and listened to. I highly recommend that you seek her care if you're suffering from any kind of pain. I'm so glad I did! read more

How much I miss living by Dr. Zhang's office. My wife and I used to go every weekend like clock work. My wife used to tell me, "I can't miss this appointment, I float out of there and is my 1 hour of zen from you, the kids and the stress of the world" I know that I always try to stump her by telling her issues that I'm having with my body and each time they would get fixed. I've been to some other acupuncture places and sometimes it would hurt and I remember having sweaty palms during the sessions because they don't have the experience that she does. I've had major muscle cramps all over my back from top and lower back issues. I've spent thousands on deep tissue massages but got nowhere. I've had quick problems like a sore neck from sleeping wrong, even sleeping issues she was able to get it right. I used to live walking distance from this place of zen. Damn how I miss this place being that close to me. read more

The first time I saw Dr Zhang I hobbled into her office, unwell from consecutive nights of not sleeping and a medical condition that doctors had not been able to figure out. I walked out of that first session upright and feeling so much better - finally relief! And I couldn't believe she is open on weekends and had a new patient slot on a Sunday afternoon. I've attended regularly since then and acupuncture with Dr Zhang has been the most effective intervention. She is also compassionate and listens well. I'm so grateful for her help, worth every penny. read more

Dr. Zhang was amazing with my 2year old toddler. We went in to see her for my daughters cough. She had a consistent cough for 9 months that was unexplained. Her regular pediatrician, allergist, and pulmonologist had no answers for us so we decided to try an alternative method with Dr. Zhang. Within two months of seeing her, my daughters cough is no gone. Dr. Zhang is amazing with children and very patient, my daughter truly enjoyed going to every visit. read more

As an attorney who stays active, BJJ, hiking, and carrying the wear from college football keeping my body in check is tough. Two years after spinal decompression therapy, I still had nagging lower back pain that flared up during workouts or longer hikes. I've always admired Eastern medicine and have been doing yoga for years, so I decided to try acupuncture with Dr. Zhang. After just two treatments, the pain dropped to minimal. She's also a great conversationalist, explains everything clearly, and her office has a calm, meditative, tranquil vibe that makes the whole experience relaxing. If you're dealing with post-injury pain or want to stay active without meds, she's excellent. Highly recommend. read more

I have been dealing with chronic low back pain for over a decade. I regularly go to the chiropractor and see a massage therapist, but never tried acupuncture. I was experiencing a lot of pain in December and received chiropractic treatment and massages, but I did not get relief.

It has greatly improved my ability to enjoy life again and feel good. Dr. Zhang is very accommodating and an expert at what she does. I highly recommend coming to see her. read more
