Listen, I hate needles and if I can avoid it I will, but I've been to Dr. Tu a handful of times due to lifting injuries or other injuries. To be honest, acupuncture is my last line of defense and I'll do it as my last resort just because I hate needles, but the fact that I keep coming here to fix myself despite the aversion to needles is a testament to how GOOD Jenny is. If you're an athlete, come here. She will understand, as she's an athlete herself, as she was an elite powerlifter and martial artist. She, as a clinician just "gets it." which is so important as a clinician! I want to show the few times she has literally and figuratively saved my ass: My sciatica. I went on a road trip and it flared up so bad that I contemplated going to the ER. I couldn't even touch the skin around my glutes, it was so bad that I had numbness and tingling in the saddle area, injection of toradol didn't work, vicodin didn't even work. I was in bed laying on my left side for days. I couldn't walk. My entire right side and some of my left from the low back to my heel hurt, and when I got there some of the symptoms subsided in it's intensity but it was still there. I'm a physical therapist, but II couldn't even do the easist exercises I would prescribe to my patients because it hurt so bad. I couldn't even tolerate any soft tissue massage. She did her work and her magic and brought my pain down to a manageable level where I could tolerate walking, sitting and going to a massage therapist (shout out to citris body workx) who aboslutely annhilated my piriformis and then I was fixed. She was able to get deep into the piriformis and into my hamstring insertion points (it was NOT painless but she did such an amazing job) If it weren't for Jenny, I wouldn't have been able to get there. More recently, she helped me with my neck and shoulder problems that have been getting worse over the past couple months and it came to a head a month ago. Again, acupuncture really fixed a lot of muscle trigger points that was causing the pain. and after a day or two I felt so much better. I even started lifting again (lightly). I am still going to her for the same issue, but the fact that I was living with probably an 8/10 pain (dull deep aching pain) and went to a 4-5/10 is amazing. For my sciatica I went from a 10/10 (as in, almost into the ER, sometimes crying) to a 4/10 immediately and was able to tolerate massage work from somewhere else. Also, if you like dry needling (like physical therapists outside of CA and CA athletic trainers do) then she does that as well. read more

Jenny is by far the best acupuncturist in town. I've had acupuncture done before and I believe and experienced it's healing techniques. As an athlete the main goal is injury prevention and when you do get injured, you must immediately make it a priority to seek professional help. I came in because of shoulder pain. She assessed my shoulder and treated it with cupping, acupuncture, and stem. She believe it will heal within weeks. I'm very pleased with her work! read more

Jenny Tu Acupuncture - Acupuncture Near Me - Arcadia, California

Dr. Tu is very attentive. She finds exactly where your pain is and addresses it properly. She's been a Godsend for my entire family!

Had my first acupuncture experience here and it was great. I always thought that it was going to be scary or painful because I hate needles and I wasnt really exposed to traditional chinese medicine, but now that I've experienced it and from such great hands I've realised that I've been missing out on so much. This place is great for people who do sports and either want to recover or just release some stress in their muscles. It definitely helped me. Cupping is now one of my favorite things in the world, and though I'm still terrified of needles in general, there's no place else that I would rather get needled. Jenny is friendly and really cares about her patients and gives you the attention that you need and deserve. It's always a pleasure to get treated by her. Unlike other places that just ignore you and give you minimal attention, you really get your money's worth here. This is also a LGBTQ friendly acupuncturist (this might be important to some) so if that's any reason to shy away from an acupuncturist (fear of judgement or whatever) this doesnt have to be a worry here. read more

Jenny Tu Acupuncture is located inside of 99 Barbell Fitness (a great gym, btw). She is very professional and highly skilled at her practice. The clinic is well lit and very clean. I don't know how she does it, but Jenny works wonders. She made migraines and bloating go away. I am always feeling relaxed and great after every session with her. The immunity boost is great. I knew I was on the verge of getting sick and I had to go into surgery the next week. After seeing Jenny for a few sessions, my sickness did not progress and I was able to successfully proceed with my surgery. I would highly recommend Jenny for acupuncture needs whether you are an active or non-active individual. Parking is located in the back of the facility and there is plenty of street parking. read more

I went to see Jenny for cupping and acupuncture on 1/19. She first gave me a very detailed survey to see what problems I was dealing with. Then she started the treatments. The cupping was painful in the moment but ultimately satisfying. The acupuncture was a lot more relaxing than I imagined. The needles are no issue if you don't think about it. It feels a bit like a price tag on a new shirt poking your back for a second. After the treatment, you will almost feel "drunk" on relaxation. It's ok. Jenny will give you tips on keeping the pain at bay while you get yourself together so you don't feel rushed. It's been a few weeks and while I may get sore, the pain doesn't last anymore. This was a great experience and I'd definitely return for another treatment if needed. read more

Been trying to get back into shape after a long layoff due to the responsibilities and time it takes to raise 3 kids. I would always start a program but would stop due to injuries- I'm not in my mid 20's anymore! So I joined 99 Barbell Gym and sure enough after a month of working out I am again sidelined by a injury to my elbow - strained from lifting too heavy too quickly. After 3 months it's not getting better and my wife sets me up with a few sessions with Jenny. Amazing!! After a couple of sessions - I am back at the gym training! I have also strained both shoulders and my wrist, every time I made appts with Jenny and she got me back at the gym missing only a day or two. That was last summer and I have not missed a beat since. I am lifting heavy again as if I was still in my early thirties! Jenny is really very good at what she does- truly a rare find! read more
