I was put into a room that only had a divider as a wall and the person next to me was getting accupressure massage. The entire time they were talking like "Is this ok? Groans, yea, this hurts." Not sure how I was supposed to relax and take a nap like that? The Dr didn't even take my pulse or anything. read more

This is truly a word of mouth place... they do 0 advertising, they don't even monitor their yelp page. They provide great acupuncture and massages that is covered through Aetna. I've been going to them for a few years now and they've really improved my chronic back and shoulder pain. read more

Dr Xu has magic with the needles. My mom had leg pains. After one treatment with Dr Xu, she recovered after a few days. Will definitely recommend Dr Xu. read more

I've been to Lao Lao for a couple of times to reduce stress and fatigue from work. Software engineers staring at the computer screens all the time have all sorts of the issues from blurred vision to sore neck to sore back. It's great to receive acupuncture - the secret Chinese medical treatment to help remedy those adverse conditions. I totally feel refreshed after every and each treatment. Lao Lao also takes a variety of insurance plans so the cost is very reasonable. 姥姥针灸在Milpitas大华的Court里，停车很方便。咱们码农平时坐久了，各种脖子，肩膀，腰和腿都有各种各样的小毛病。上班老盯着屏幕看，也容易视力模糊，按摩针灸能够有效缓解这些症状。 read more

Had back/shoulder pain and tight muscle, start showing improvement immediately after first session in this center. Have been going now and then, always felt refreshing after treatment. Will continue going for treatment. read more

Any problem you have, Dr. Sarah will try her best to fix it. I had irregular period problems and my period hadn't come for over 5 months, after 3 acupuncture sessions my period came again! I'll be going back if it doesnt come back next month. Not only is Sarah super down to earth and kind, but she also has a very vast knowledge at whats she's doing. If you're thinking about going to acupuncture, I highly suggest you try this one! :^) read more

Five years ago, I was left bed ridden from back injury and flare up that scarred me mentally and took half a year to fully recover from. During this time, I visited a local acupuncturist who healed me and regained my confidence that everything was going to be okay, which became reality. Since then, I have been a firm believer in the practice of acupuncture and the benefits that it can provide. Within the past couple weeks, I overstressed my nervous system again and started to feel symptoms similar to five years ago. In fear that I would be left debilitated again, I began looking for an acupuncture clinic nearby me. I found Lao Lao acupuncture on Yelp, and contacted Dr. Sarah over the phone and explained my symptoms even after their closing hours. We scheduled an appointment for the following day, where I met Dr. Sarah and Dr. Deborah who were very professional and spent half an hour pinpointing locations that I had issues with. During this period, Dr. Sarah treated my neck which led to a burst of tears, not from pain but from relief. I'm not sure if they realized at the time, but they continued the treatment and after putting in the last needle, I felt a HUGE wave of emotions that I've bottled over the years from fear and I couldn't hold back the tears anymore. The whole session was extremely therapeutic and cleansing, and since then my nerve pain has subsided and has become more manageable. I was lost for words and trying to explain how thankful I was led to more crying. Dr. Deborah gave me a hug, sat me down and soothed my back, and relieved a critical point of stress. I can say with 100% confidence that not only are Dr. Sarah and Dr. Deborah complete professionals but also very caring and compassionate for their patients. I plan to keep going for treatment, and I highly recommend anyone skeptical of acupuncture or looking to treat their pain to give them a shot. Thank you so much!! read more

I've been suffering from Migraine headache for years and even cannot drive sometimes. Sarah Xu did acupuncture a few times and the pain is gone starting from the 2nd treatment. There's no headache any more. Great thanks for her professional. read more

The staffs are very professional and friendly. Good massage and precise acupuncture. After treatment, your mind and body feel refreshed and energized. read more

I was skeptical about trying acupuncture but Dr. Sarah made sure the process was comfortable and painless for me. She answered all the questions I had when I went in for the first time. Dr. Sarah genuinely cares about treating her patients and will do anything she needs to to help! She's the best out there and has 10+ years of experience and is knowledgeable in TCM. I've now being seeing Sarah for the last two years for different treatments at both her Milpitas and San Jose locations. I've tried acupuncture, massage, and fire cupping here and have seen improved results. She can treat anything from head and neck pain, sleep problems, stress, tinnitus, eczema, pretty much anything! Ongoing treatment would be beneficial for long term but results show right after! I always feel so much more relaxed and have better sleep after just one visit. She offers topical medication, herbal pills, homemade tea, bath soaks, and more! She also accepts most insurances that cover. Definitely give this office a call because I'm so glad I did! Would highly recommend! read more

Lao Lao Acupuncture Center - Front office - Acupuncture Near Me - Milpitas, California

I highly recommend Lao Lao Acupuncture. Everyone is very kind, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. I began to use their services to help with my neck and back pains. I had done acupuncture, acupressure, and cupping. I feel the significant difference in my daily routines as I started going to Lao Lao Acupuncture. I also struggle with melasma and dark spots on my face. I was extremely happy to learn that they also sell an herbal tea to reduce the appearances of melasma on my face. Again I highly recommend Lao Lao Acupuncture for your holistic health. read more

We have been to Lao Lao Acupuncture for over 1.5 years. It all started with my son's sinus/respiratory issue when his doctor failed to heal or do anything to reduce his runny nose/mucus symptoms. After 3 attempts to work with the hospital for 3 months, the western medicine just blame it to allergy and could not find any root cause, and never mind the cure because his symptoms was not serious enough or match any illness in their book. I was really desperate and a friend recommend us to try TCM and refer us to Lao Lao. Dr. Yang improved my son's symptoms in 3 intensive visits within 2 weeks. Since then we just go back for his "maintenance". My daughter had a spot of very stubborn eczema for over 2 years (tried steroid and other western medicine prescribed by Kaiser without success) and was healed in 2 visits at Lao Lao. It is truly unbelievable! read more

Lao Lao has not only earned my trust in their practice, but has made me a believer in Chinese medicine and acupuncture. On that note, I cannot say enough about Dr Yang's commitment to her patients. Behind her warm, caring personality is an intelligent, extremely hard working and committed healer. I am beyond words simply because of the results. Lingering challenges from sports related injuries had me suffering for months and now they seem to have simply faded away read more

Was there for acupressure , and have clearly stated it over the phone and during check in, did not want any acupuncture. Owner came in after waiting for 20 mins, offered free acupuncture for 3 needles, waited another 15 mins. Another lady (doctor??) came in, I was expecting acupressure, she massaged my back for less than 5 mins, then continue to put more needles all over my body, walked away to do other customers and came in and out. At the end I was charged both acupressure AND acupuncture, terrible. Texted the owner to ask why the next day, and refunded the acupressure fee. Anyway it didn't resolve my pain problem and won't go again. read more

I was suffering from the most unexpected hemorroids and while all doctors said that it will take at least 2-3 weeks to subside, Dr Sarah helped feel better in just 4 days! She is extremely talented and I feel well taken care of with her. She knows what she is doing and I would refer her to anyone at a heartbeat ! Thank you Dr. Sarah! She has also helped me with insomnia and any issue I have had! read more

Dr Sarah is amazing! She is patient and precise and explains what, how and why she is treating you, as it relates to your symptoms. Reasonable pricing; you certainly feel that Dr Sarah and Lao Lao are running their clinic to care for and treat patients, and not to make a big profit. I really appreciate that! Lovely setting off of a hidden courtyard in a business park, with several private treatment rooms. I love that this location is close to the business parks of north San Jose, where I work. read more

Lao Lao Acuuncture is the my GO place when I felt not comfortable, Dr. Xu really has magic to control the flu/cold, she and her assistant will use magic needle to get the disease out of my body system. I felt better when I walked out of Lao Lao Acuuncture. I always has my energy back on the 2nd day. If you have pre cold/flu symptoms, please give them a try. read more

This review is specific to Sarah. I was referred to her by my sister, who had a wonderful first appointment with Sarah as her very first introduction to acupuncture. Sarah seemed attentive, asked a lot of good questions, took her time, and described a game plan of four treatment sessions that should get my sister on a good path. When my sister arrived for her second appointment at the San Jose office, she was advised that Sarah was not there and later found out that Sarah had forgotten their scheduled appointment. My sister was disappointed because she thought that Sarah would know best what they had worked on the first time and what path to take for the second treatment. Nonetheless, she went ahead and got treated by another acupuncturist in Sarah's absence. Everyone makes mistakes, so she decided to give Sarah another try and scheduled a third appointment at the Milpitas location where Sarah spends most of her time, even though it was much farther from home and work and not as convenient. This is where I come in. I joined my sister for her third appointment in Milpitas so that I could meet Sarah and decide if I would like to start seeing her as well. I went ahead and scheduled an appointment with Sarah right there on the spot in person, explicitly saying that I wanted to have her help me. When I arrived for my appointment two days later, she was not there and I was told that she had "forgotten" that she had a class that day, and therefore was not available to help me. I decided not to stay and have someone else help me because I knew that I would probably need ongoing regular treatments and wanted to start a course with one person and stick with them all the way through. Unfortunately, I decided after seeing Sarah miss a second prescheduled appointment that she was not a good fit for me. Lao Lao seems to have a decent, computerized appointment system in the office and even sends text message reminders the day before. It frankly seems unnecessary to have such lapses in communication and such disorganization. That's no way to run a business with integrity and honesty. It's a shame because I was planning on going for treatment very regularly and had also already spoken to four friends about the fact that I was going to try it out and was going to refer them also, if it went well. I can see that Sarah generally gets great reviews on here, so I guess my family is the exception. But I couldn't in good conscience not share my experience in case it helps someone else. I would recommend looking elsewhere for treatment if you value your time and appreciate transparency and reliability. read more

I came here having lots of sciatica pain, after a few weeks of acupuncture and acupressure I was feeling so much better + Sara (the owner) is very friendly. read more

I came to Lao Lao Acupuncture expecting some light massage and acupuncture work to soothe my digestive system, but Dr. Xu went above and beyond to treat any problem that needed even the slightest but of attention. I've been coming to Dr. Xu for a couple months now, and I have more energy, better sleep quality, and Dr. Xu has even helped me rehabilitate my surgically repaired ankle. I was surprised when Dr. Xu offered to help me heal a left Achilles tendon rupture using acupuncture therapy. I was skeptical that acupuncture would heal a nagging injury that even months of physical therapy had left only partially recovered. The results ended up fantastic. Before starting treatment the back of my ankle felt stiff and immobile. My range of motion and flexibility were both hampered by the scar tissue left over from the injury. The tendon now feels more elastic and natural. There's more range of motion and less tightness when I run and jump. It has been a godsend to finally play basketball again without the fear of ankle being unable to bear the load. Thank you so much! She's honestly one of the most caring individuals I have had the chance to meet, and I would recommend her to anyone. Dr. Xu prioritizes me, the client, before anything else. She offers a variety of treatments and will listen closely to your feedback to figure out what you're comfortable with. I was not too familiar with acupuncture or other forms of Eastern medicine before coming to her office, and Dr. Xu expertly and compassionately addressed any and all reservations I had about the process. I would not have my current quality of life without her! read more

Incredible. Seriously. I have had insomnia for a decade with debilitating migraines and back and neck pain. Nothing worked. CBT, exercise, physical therapy, pills, nothing. Dr. Xu fixed me in one session and made it "stick" through followups. She is professional and precise, no nonsense. She easily felt where my knots are, where the pain points are, and somehow dissolved them. After my sessions, I feel light, free, relaxed, renewed. She is a miracle worker and I cannot recommend her enough! read more

I have back pain and tight muscles in my neck/shoulders. I have tried some other treatments which didn't help me much before visiting Lao Lao acupuncture. After several massage and acupuncture sessions in Lao Lao, I am now in much less pain than when I first came. I also find it more effective in relieving my pain than chiropractic. The doctor here is very professional and care, the service is also reasonably priced. Highly recommend this place. read more

My knee sprained this March when I went to ski, it hurt a lot and I could not stand on my left feet. The third day I went to Lao Lao acupuncture. I took 4-5 session of treatment in one month, I could barely feel the pain after the treatment. They helped a lot and they are really kind and friendly. read more

I would like to share my great experience with Dr. Xu in her acupuncture center. It is amazing. I moved to CA from east coast last Nov with a really bad situation. Moving and adapting in the new work and new community stressed me out and I had a super long period then. I was weak and worried about my health so I visited Lao Lao acupuncture because of my friend's recommendation. I visited the clinic regularly over three months, once a week and I totally recovered from my bad situation. I feel every visit refreshes me and I can totally relax there. With the acupuncture treatment, my problem has improved a lot. read more

It all started over 3 years ago. My brain felt heavy and I found myself slow to think. Over time the symptoms got worse, sometimes accompanied with blurred eye sight, and it was hard to read computer screens. I tried all kinds of medical helps that I could find but nothing improved. Luckily Lao Lao Acupuncture is here to help. To my surprise, I felt much better after the first treatment, and after 4 sessions all of the symptoms are gone! I am really greatful to Lao Lao and would highly recommend it. read more

I am extremely pleased with the results that fruitioned from all the sessions. My ankle was in pain but after 4 weeks, the pain subsided and it's all good. Of course the results vary for each injury. The message is nice too, the message hurts a bit during the message but after the message, you'll feel great. The acupuncture is also very good, the acupuncturist will tell you if it'll hurt when she pokes it in, but otherwise it barely hurts to no pain. read more
