I went for four weeks and had not even a little relief from any of the issues that I spoke with them about. Claims that they could help my poor appetite, nicotine cravings, pains, etc were all just fake sales pitches. I'm giving 2 stars for cleanliness, friendliness and that's about it. I'm taking 3 stars away because I don't feel like they pay attention to patient needs, focus on the patient during treatment, or note patient fears/concerns. I also don't feel like they know what they're doing with the needles, there should have been some change in 4 weeks if this actually works but there was none.

I cannot speak highly enough about North End Acupuncture, especially Philip Barlow. I began seeing…read morePhilip in December 2024 for a persistent gastro-related issue I'd been dealing with since August 2022. After seeing multiple doctors with little to no progress, I turned to acupuncture as a "last resort", which now will be the first place I turn to moving forward. During my first appointment Philip spent a full hour going over my health history in detail, and I can confidently say I've never felt so heard or understood by someone in the medical field. We started with weekly sessions, gradually shifting to bi-weekly and then monthly as I improved. Thanks to Philip's thoughtful care, my gastro issues have been fully resolved and I no longer require regular treatment. On top of that, Philip has also helped me recover from a few short-term colds and illnesses using a combination of acupuncture and herbal medicine. The entire team at North End Acupuncture has created such a warm, welcoming, and peaceful environment which made every visit something I looked forward to. I cannot recommend them enough!

Thank you for all you do Ali, God bless!

Acupuncture can work wonders for a variety of ailments (IF performed by a skilled acupuncturist)…read morethat is the key! THIS is the place to go if you want acupuncture & cupping! I've tried acupuncture in the past based on a friend's recommendation, but I was not impressed--sure it was relaxing, but nothing special--then I had acupuncture with Median Chen, wow amazing!!! I experienced instant relief from my nausea. Now I understand why people swear by acupuncture. I highly recommend this place to expectant mothers for help with morning sickness, fatigue, etc. This wellness center has been a lifesaver and healing oasis. I always though acupuncture was more of an out of pocket "self pay" treatment--so I was surprised and thrilled to learn they accept my insurance (they accept all insurances actually). Either way, I noticed they offer all kinds of treatment packages to make the visits affordable to all. Actually, acupuncture is just one of the many modalities they offer--I have a consultation with "Eugenia" their Chinese herbal medicine practitioner next week! Excited for that, I will update my review afterwards!

Because I don't want to use prescription drugs when I don't have to, I have have often sought out…read morealternative forms of holistic medicine. For almost two years I have been going to see Philip Barlow for acupuncture. My first issue was digestive problems--constipation. This almost immediately improved and continued to improve as I worked with him. I later had issues with energy levels and stress. He was helpful in targeting what was going on and gave me herbs as well as acupuncture to treat this. I had no idea that acupuncture and herbs could help with depression and grief. He has also helped me with female issues. I do enjoy that Philip is trained in both acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine because he is a one-stop treatment center for me as he can also provide the medicine I need to heal. I also like that the medicine is made just for me rather than an over-the-counter one-size-fits-all kind of remedy. He uses herbs that are clean and don't have the pesticides that Chinese herbs can have coming from China. So I feel more confident that I am using the best herbs money can buy. The herbs he gives me are easy to use. They are in powered form that I just add to hot water and they dissolve. I have to be honest though, they don't taste that great. But I do appreciate how they work and the taste doesn't stop me from taking them. I also appreciate Philip's bed side manner. He is compassionate and sensitive to my issues. He has a healing manner about him that is non-judgemental. He is very calming, which is important since I know that some of my issues are stress related and personal. I also feel he is very present and trustworthy. He has a healing, positive energy that lifts my spirit. I always feel better after a treatment. I've sent several friends to see him and they loved him too. Many are now sending their friends to him. Philip Barlow is located in the North End of Boston which is the only real negative thing I could say. Sometimes it's hard to find parking. But it's not impossible, there are meters available and parking garages. However, he is close to bus and T stations so easily accessible that way. All in all, I am happy to have found such great acupuncturist and healer. I plan to continue to use Philip Barlow as needed.
