TOP FLIGHT SERVICE, AMAZING OUTCOMES…read more I am a long time convert to traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture. I was first introduced after going to scores of expensive specialists ----including a highly recommended osteopath in London, a top chiropractor in New York and a surgeon at COLUMBIA PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL ---- for a problematical frozen shoulder. No-one gave me more than (very) temporary relief. Someone suggested an acupuncturist and I haven't looked back since. Dr Deng at AMSTERDAM CENTRAL ACUPUNCTURE is a rare breed of professional: thoughtful, patient and very good at her work. We have been a patient for years. Appointments are never rushed, the service is top notch and my partner and I are always happy with the treatment. Granted cupping and gua sha massage can be a little uncomfortable and the Chinese herb medicine tastes like LIQUID MUD........ AND, all in all, I prefer minor discomfort to heal as quickly as possible. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I have been here twice now, both times to see Claudia. I have to say that she is very professional,…read morehas a nice demeanor and seems to really care about my problems. After a few visits my issues haven't been cleared up yet, but I do see some progress. acupuncture is certainly a strange science but there must be something to it. She has told me after each session where I would be sore and/or tired. Those predictions were spot on and I am feeling better. Hopefully after a few more visits I will be better. As for the office, it is very clean with a relaxed feeling to it. There are large windows inside which face out to a courtyard. This creates a sort of tranquil setting. I would certainly suggest to anyone looking for acupuncture to give them a try. It can't hurt. Well it's little needles going into your skin, so maybe a little hurt.

The place is nice but too busy to get new patients. After establishing a course of treatment and…read moremultiple tries at follow up appointments I had to find a new acupuncturist, which is like starting all over again in terms of costs and treatments. I felt like I was an imposition on them when I wrote to request appointments, and didn't always get a response (and occasionally emails returned to me unsent). I was told I needed to plan in farther in advance, so I tried that and got no response. While there may have been extenuating circumstances for the provider and some things going on with him personally, I left feeling really frustrated.

Chi taught me a lot about my own "system". What foods work for me and what are wonderfoods when i need them. Acupunture really helps with all sorts of thinks that bother you or ...well, what you go to the docter for. No it doesnt hurt.. the needles are so-soooo thin, they dont hurt. Now i'm pregnant and he really helped me with - My horrible nausea (so i could work and even walk to the Albert Heij!) - Chi helps keeping my crazy hormones in balance - My back pains - And the head rub at the end...? Feels good! One consult costs me €55, He is a doctor... (in NY it would cost me that times 3...!) When i leave Chi Fung Lee's practice i always feel light and strong. Sometimes slightly stoned but still focused. (no, no funny herbs..) He is great for women that want to get pregnant by the way!

Kwik Fix stands out as the only place I will get a massage in Amsterdam even though it's not…read morecovered by insurance. It's a clean and simple set up, with tables separated by heavy curtains in a long room. Don't expect a spa. The masseuses don't chat beyond asking about the pressure and are competent, always delivering a hard, consistent, deep tissue relaxing massage. I recommend the 60 minute massage for € 45. I call ahead of time and make an appointment. You can walk in but you may have to wait. It can get busy at times. I always leave in a euphoric state, stumbling onto my bike with a grin. It's always a consideration when I have some extra coin in my hands.

You will get your consult right there if you don't ask for a personal room :D Lots of herbs, to make tea, you know the kind! The disgusting kind :) but, well....I know at least 2 people with skin problems that got them solves in this very "China-looking" place. They don't try to make it look nice, they just do what they do. Take it or leave it. Great massages for €20-30min and €35-60 min. I'm in. (And afterwards I need a shower...but they are good)

HORRIBLE - caps intentional. Negative 5 stars…read more Went here, based on the previous 4-star review, for acupuncture and left worse than I went in. A horrible butcher's den is what this joint is. I've had many sessions of acupuncture before and this place is absolutely horrendous. I asked for acupuncture and what they offer is massage with free acupuncture. I ignored the "free" red flag and figured the combination might be nice. As I lay in my undies, face down, someone swiped what I presume is alcohol on my neck and lower back. "Good," I thought, "cleanliness." Next thing I know a woman is sticking what felt like sewing needles in my neck and yelling every time, "AAAAHHHH! DOET PIJN! AAAAAAHHHH" Well, guess what: it did hurt like hell so I said "It hurts!" at which point she screamed louder to drown out my voice: "AAAAAHHHH!!!! OMA [turns out that's her name] DOET MISHANDELING!!!! AAAAAAHHHH!!!!!" The needles hurt even more when I talked, telling her to stop because it was hurting. She screamed louder and louder. I felt a liquid substance run down my neck but couldn't move my arms to check whether it was blood. Eventually I just lied there because it was the least painful thing to do, and prayed to God that nothing horrible would come of this. The torture went on but you get the gist of it. Never a-[expletive]-gain. Several parts of my body hurt as I write this and in one spot where a needle was it feels like I had a mean shot.

Very attentive and intuitive care. A sure and gentle approach that left me feeling much better and…read moreeffects lasted.

From the owner: Acupuncture in Japan…read more The therapeutic methods we employ from Japan are generally very gentle and effective. Acupuncture in Japan has been adapted to suit the needs of todays modern person, hence it generally uses milder needling techniques with thinner gauge needles, and shallower insertion methods. Treatment techniques and goals Acupuncture can be used to help strengthen a person's natural healing ability, to speed up the recovery from disease and as a preventative measure to help protect one's health. This goal, coupled with targeting the relief of specific symptoms that each patient presents with requires that we use a wide variety of treatment methods, including different needling methods, application of heat through the use of moxibustion, retained needling methods, cupping, etc. Individualized treatment Our treatment approach assesses each patient individually to determine what are the optimal treatment approaches and combinations of techniques for each patient.
