Healing ‍ Acupuncture!
Arlene S.

Dr. Lai and his staff are amazing. I've been receiving treatment here for over a year now. Dr. Lai has helped me with some issues I've been dealing with for a long time! I went to my regular doctor to treat my pain and he simply gave me medication that turned out to be an antidepressant! That was not the type of care I wanted or needed! I kind of gave up and suffered for a while until I sought other options! I came across Dr. Lai on Yelp. I truly love the holistic approach to caring for my body and I appreciate the alternative care I get from Dr. Lai's office. I 100% recommend this place to help you heal.

Dr. Lai is the bomb!!! I was suffering with back and leg pain for about a year before hearing about him through a friend. He was highly recommended so I thought why not try it out after living with on/off pain for way too long. So first appointment he was extremely thorough in explaining to me what was going on after his assessment and thorough explanation. He used various tools and his "magic hands" to help fix me up and yes it feels pretty intense. I followed up with acupuncture too went home took an epsom salt hot bath and slept like a rock! I finally woke up not in pain for the first time in a long time!! I continue to go for touch ups here and there when my back gets tweaked but I definitely have a lot of relief and will continue to go back as needed.

I highly recommend TCM Healing Center for fertility along with general health issues. Wear a loose…read moretop, shorts, slip on shoes. A visit lasts 1 hour, and meter parking is in front or free on the side streets. They accept credit cards and the entire staff is always comforting and professional. A friend recommended Dr. Jing after multiple MCs. After acupuncture and herbal tea, she gave birth naturally at 40. Upon research, Dr. Jing used to be an OBGYN in Beijing before moving to the US and is now a Professor of TCM at multiple colleges. The doctors here are familiar with IVF clinics and practice and offer valuable insight throughout. I've been coming here on a weekly basis (sometimes bi-weekly) since June 2018. My regimen was to drink a daily herbal tea & weekly acupuncture to combat endometriosis and get pregnant. 9/10 times I fall asleep with the needles in my face, scalp, neck, hand, stomach, legs, and feet. I switched to Dr. Lim due to the cost per visit as it's been over 1 year of treatment. I can say with confidence that all of the doctors are professional and kind. After 14 months, 1 laparoscopy and 2 egg retrievals and 2 FETs, I am now pregnant at age 38. I also saw Dr. Hart for cupping when I came down with a cold/flu. I highly recommend the yellow travel pills at the onset of getting sick. They totally work at preventing full blown illness, and I recovered much faster than usual with less phlegm/mucus and zero downtime. I have only gotten semi-sick one time since beginning treatment here. I believe that TCM currently accepts Blue Shield of CA PPO Silver and above. TCM will gladly provider a superbill for other providers, but expect to be denied by ASH. I also saw certain A list actors here on occasion so if it's good enough for them...it's surely good for me too!

I'm writing this with great disappointment because when I first started seeing Dr. Miao at TCM, I…read morewas very pleased with the care and experience I received. The office staff is very polite and pleasant, too. My doula highly recommended them to help induce labor because my husband and I were set on having a home birth and hoped to avoid reaching 42 weeks and needing to give birth in a hospital. We saw her three times, and labor did not start, despite also trying other natural induction methods. We assumed it was because my baby and body weren't ready yet, and that it had nothing to do with the acupuncture care I was receiving. At the time of this appointment, I was approximately 41 weeks and 3-5 days pregnant, depending on which medical professional's due date we used. Our maternal-fetal medicine specialist had told us that the baby was healthy and that the assessments--including amniotic fluid, non-stress testing, umbilical cord blood flow, and estimated weight--were all normal. Our midwife felt confident recommending additional natural induction methods and believed electroacupuncture and leave-in press tacks could be highly effective at this point in the pregnancy. When I saw Dr. Miao, I asked for those specific treatments. She refused to do the leave-in press tacks because, in her opinion, they weren't necessary. She also kept urging me to go to the hospital for the birth because I was past my due date, even though our care plan allowed for continued monitoring and a home birth before 42 weeks. I tried to explain that our midwife would not deliver the baby at home if I reached 42 weeks and would insist on transferring care to the hospital, as that is medical standard care for midwifery. That was already our backup plan. There is also a hospital approximately a mile from our home; all of this was accounted for in our birth plan. Also, many women that I've met during my pregnancy gave birth exactly at 42 weeks because that's when their baby was ready to come into the world. She went on to explain that the baby was continuing to gain weight, that there wouldn't be enough space for him to move around, and that, given my size, it could be dangerous for both of us. She also said that being too big could cause health problems for him later in life; however, those statements were particularly upsetting to me. My brother was born weighing 9 pounds, and my understanding is that C-section delivered him because the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck, not because he was too big. He is now 34 and has no health issues. My friend's older brother was born vaginally, weighing 10 pounds, and has no known health issues in his mid-30s as well; his mother is also quite small. Though there may be evidence to support what she is saying, based on these experiences, her comments about size and future health do not mean that it will happen to my baby. Under the plan established with our birth team, I still had approximately 2-4 days to continue trying to encourage labor naturally and deliver at home before transferring to hospital care if necessary. I kept gently insisting on the leave-in press tacks, but she kept refusing and told me to get on the table. Part of me thought I should leave and find another acupuncturist, but I went ahead and lay on the table for the electroacupuncture treatment, which was fine. But still, the end of the session ended with her urging me to go to the hospital if I had not given birth by the end of the week, and again, this is already in our birth plan, but she would not listen to me. However, what felt to me like fear-mongering and overstepping--when we already had specialist monitoring, a midwife overseeing our care, and a hospital backup plan--was unnecessary and left a bad taste in my mouth. I promptly let my midwife know what had happened, and she recommended another acupuncturist in our area, who was an OB in China, and specializes in fertility, prenatal, and postnatal care. After speaking with him about what I needed and how far along I was, he said he could provide the treatments we were seeking. My husband and I paid over $8,000 to have a home birth, so of course, we're going to follow our midwife's advice, who has over 15 years of experience overseeing prenatal care and delivering babies, and we're doing everything in our control to ensure it happens. Still, we're also very mindful that if we reach past the medical standard of 42 weeks, a hospital birth will be necessary. It wasn't right that, as an expecting mother who had thoroughly researched and discussed with her family and birth team a detailed plan for the birth of our baby only to be filled with fear, dread, and told to get on a table, rather than receive care and support, by an acupuncturist and pay $120 for the treatment and experience. I take responsibility for not leaving immediately and finding someone else who was willing to help. It would have been better if she had politely declined my request.

All blood work normal. Western doctors only want to yank out my gallbladder. Went to see Lydia and after only one appointment my pain has gone from a 10 to a 3. Lydia is truly a gifted medicine woman. If you have an appointment with her, she spends the entire time with you. She doesn't see other people while treating you. You have her 100% attention. She works out of her home which is clean, warm and inviting. She is incredibly talented and has given me more healing in one appointment and the herbs she sent me home with then 3 yrs of idiot doctors. I am finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and I have all the confidence in the world in Lydia. Western doctors will NEVER get to the root cause of your issue, Lydia will!

When I first came to Lydia in January 2025, I was desperate. I was dealing with intense itching and…read moreburning rashes all over my arms, shoulders, neck, and legs. I also had active breast cancer, but I hadn't started any treatments with my Western doctors yet. Lydia immediately began treating me -- not only for the itching and burning, but also for the cancer. She used moxibustion directly on my breast, special herbal poultices, and personalized teas and capsules that she prepared just for me. For the next 8 months, I only did her treatments. I didn't have surgery, chemo, radiation, or hormone therapy during that time. When I finally went back to my doctors for updated scans, the results shocked them. My PET scan showed that the cancer in my breast and lymph nodes had actually improved, and most importantly, it had not spread anywhere else. The radiologist even wrote in the report as if I had already had a procedure -- but I hadn't. The only treatments I had been doing were with Lydia. I am so grateful for Lydia's care. She has helped my body heal, supported my immune system, and given me hope. I can honestly say her treatments have made a huge difference in my health and my life.
