I also have so digestive issue, which I get bloated very easily after meals. I thought that the symptoms are normal since now I have reached my 30s. I told Joyce about my symptoms and my concerns. She quickly told me that my symptoms are minor and I won't have to live that like in my 30s. I have been to her for about 3 times. With the help of her acupuncture and herbs, I do not feel foggy anymore and I can function without taking my naps! As for my digestive issue, I am less bloated and I do not have any constipation anymore :D Joyce is a major life changer! She is also very humble, friendly, knowledgeable. She has been practicing since she was young! With her care, one feels very safe and being listened to. I don't usually leave reviewed, but with Joyce, I highly encourage her service!

I wanted to write a glowing review for Christopher Lee after the first visit but I decided to wait…read moreand see how the treatments went. I have to say that having him as a doctor has been a blessing. He is a skilled healer with a wonderful manner. He is patient and is able to understand your health concerns from a contextual and holistic perspective and he does this by asking relevant questions about your lifestyle and beliefs. He also has a strong knowledge base of both Chinese and Western medicine and does an incredible job of explaining his approach and techniques. I spent weeks looking for a good acupuncturist and was impressed with Dr. Lee's informative website and strong reviews. I visited him for a pinched nerve in my neck and shooting pain in my arm, hand, fingers, and shoulder. He has used acupuncture, Chinese massage, and cupping and all have been highly effective in reducing my pain. He has also helped me with lower back pain and I felt better almost immediately. I agree with the other comments that people have made: he is non-judgemental, respectful, and nurturing. I have been to many doctors and acupuncturists and this has been my best and most positive experience yet. His fees are very reasonable and the office is relaxing and professional. I can't express enough how grateful I am to Dr. Lee for his wonderful care.

Awesome first visit!…read more I went in to try acupuncture for the first time today. I have a slipped disc along with other issues that I don't want to get surgery for; so I'm trying everything I can think of to help me fix the problem. Christopher had an opening this morning and was able to see me the same day. The first visit begins with filling out some forms and then a 30 minute consultation with Christopher. He listens well, asks lots of questions and tries to get to the root of how you are feeling. In my case, after the consultation, Christopher decided to give me acupuncture in my back and legs. It wasn't painful at all, I can only say that after a while it felt like a buzzing or tingling feeling in my back and legs. During the treatment I was able to relax as if I were on vacation. My back feels much better now and I'm looking forward to a nice night of rest. He also preformed a special massage technique after the acupuncture session. I plan on going back on Monday for a "tune-up" and perhaps a more intense acupuncture session. Christopher has a great bed-side manner and continually checks in with you as he is applying his techniques. He answers all questions and seems to genuinely care about helping people. If you are looking to try acupuncture; look no further than Christopher Lee.

BAIT AND SWITCH. I…read moredid not see Dr. Olsen. A male provider was on duty when I went 11/21/25. This facility appears to have a lot of patients at one time, but only one chiropractor in the office. I arrived at 8:30 and by the time I left at 10am there must have been 10 people sitting in the waiting area. It feels a bit of like an assembly line. There was more time spent with various staff versus the chiropractor. There are 7 treatment rooms or more. I made my appointment by phone, as I was looking to get in as soon as I could, having exacerbated my back a couple of days prior, and was looking for a chiropractor that used the activator method. When I called, the person told me that my first visit would be $27 if X-rays were needed, but the rest of the visit would be free. During my visit they had me sign a 2-page document that had a bunch of charges and I said I was told it would be $27 if I needed an X-ray so I didn't understand why I was signing for all these charges. I was told these were prices for other chiropractors. Oh ok I signed it. The chiropractor came in and recommended I do EMFR and laser treatment if there was time. He wasn't sure there would time for an adjustment. No pricing was discussed. Like I said, assembly line and chiropractor left. I was taken to a different room, and they did the EMFR thing. Then I had to wait awhile for someone else to be done with the laser machine. Mind you, they are pretty efficient but there was a lot of this and that to keep the assembly line moving and I did wait quite awhile in between these 2 things. Then they told me they would give me an ice pack which they never did. They asked if I felt better and I was like, um I haven't been adjusted and that was my main reason for coming in. So they took me back to a different room. I waited a bit and the chiropractor came in to adjust me - 5 minutes or less. At the front they said $189. I said, say what? I explained my call and they said yeah the $27 is for the consultation and X-ray, but the PEMF, laser, and adjustment were all extra on top of that. I was mad at the lack of transparency and I let her know. She said since I have Kaiser and was paying OOP, the chiropractor could set up a treatment plan that would include 20% discount. I said but no 20% discount for today? No. I paid it and left and do not want to ever go back. This is a classic bait and switch. Perhaps the office is full of people who have insurance coverage. If they would have told me the costs in advance, I might have asked for less treatment or just the adjustment. Or totally been fine with it. In the end, I don't think it's an unreasonable charge for a first time appointment. However, I was not able to make an informed decision due to their misrepresentation. That left a bad taste in my mouth and I won't be back. Beware if you're paying out of pocket.

I have always been a proponent of the benefits of acupuncture. Prior to moving to Brentwood, I used…read moreto have regular sessions in the Peninsula that worked to keep me balanced in all aspects of my health (as a child, I was very sickly and easily contracted viral & bacterial borne illnesses). After getting settled here, I looked for the same caliber of treatment that I had become used to but couldn't find the right fit. Ugh... back to being sickly and stressed. I could feel how unbalanced I was & I needed help. Thankfully, I found Dr. Joy! I'd been in to see Dr. Giessman at Spine and Sportcare Associates and saw her card in the lobby. I'm so happy that I called to schedule! Dr. Joy has a light touch & I barely feel anything while she's conducting my sessions. I recently developed a case of shingles due to excessive stress & *NO ONE TOLD ME ACUPUNCTURE CAN HELP IT!* I was staying home trying to cope with the incredibly intense pain & burning skin sensitivity. As soon as Dr. Joy found out that I had shingles, she urged me to immediately come in to start a series of TCM herbs & treatments which had such a positive effect & my pain really lessened a day or two after each treatment. I so very badly wish that I'd known: as soon as the rash developed, acupuncture could have prevented the shingles virus from spreading into my nerves. I recommend that anyone reading this review who has recently been diagnosed with shingles, please make an appointment to see Dr. Joy. If you can't see her, seek out a licensed and certified TCM physician like Dr. Joy. She's so easy to talk to & she really listens to you. Such a gentle touch & so very knowledgeable. You have to be forthright when you go to a TCM doctor--the doctor can't treat something that you haven't disclosed and Dr. Joy is someone that I feel that I can trust with my health.

After these treatments, I was getting no relief, and my pain was the same as, or even worse than when I started treatment with her. I told her that I was going to stop getting acupuncture, as it did not seem to be helping. She said I should continue for 10 sessions. She said that things would get better if I came for 10 sessions in total. I then visited 5 more times. After these additional treatments, I still got no relief - my elbow pain was worse than when I started treatment with her. Her treatments were totally ineffective for me. Then I got my bill. $333 per session! Thousands of dollars spent and promises of relief were not met. Con artist or quack, I am not sure which.

I'm pretty sure she's a miracle worker, but my insurance won't cover acupuncture, or miracles, so…read moreI have to settle for "improvement but not awe-inspiring miracuosity" at AIMC in Berkeley instead of the treatments I could get here. Okay, E, so how bad is this? When I went last year, $150 consult/first apt., $85 subsequent visits, plus herbal tea mixes were $7/day. Again, ain't got no money. If I went here I wouldn't have no money to take you on a date. If you where an acupuncturist, I'd be your perfect soulmate.... (But she does take insurance, so if you are hooked up with the right program, she may be your soulmate) Anyway....I came here dealing with lingering pain issues (bad enough that the Kaiser docs gave me painkillers, ineffective PT, and a fabulous note essentially declaring that I have a disabilty) and the usual, ongoing since I was 16 allergy issues, so I had nothing to loose to try acupuncture, and I literally woke up the morning after my first appointment feeling like a new person. Second appointment was also pretty fabulous, or as fabulous as being a human pincushion can be, and then my ability to pay the $85 plus herbs ended. I now see student acupuncturists at AIMC in Berkeley, but it seems to take multiple appointments to get the same amount of relief, plus the quality varies.

They promptly arranged for me to do paperwork in a comfortable manner and were very friendly. Dr. Geraldine did a thorough intake and explained in detail her observations and how she could treat it. After being adjusted in a very gentle manner, I immediately felt my baby kick, something I had not been feeling for a while as I was so strained in the area that my baby could not move.

Dr. Mulhall was one of 2 chiro's in the East Bay. I found Dr. Mulhall to be knowledgeable, enthusiastic and caring. Much to my relief!! I felt almost 90% better after 3 treatments. I continued on for a month 2x a week and have sustained relief from my symptoms. When you are in pain there is almost no price that seems too high to pay for a "back to normal" state. She was very reasonably priced, for her expertise level and specializations. She is very personable and I highly reccommend her!
