I have nothing but been impressed with Billy. He is a magical in understanding what is going on with your challenges and body. I have a disease that mimics MS and as an added bonus a rotator cuff tear and RA. As someone who has been to various acupuncture folks, he is by far the best. I can tell you that the ability to help with my cuff issue, the MS problems and difficulties especially with the seizures makes a huge quality of life significantly better than before. Ditto with my RA. read more

Love this place! Glow acupuncture is amazing for feeling more radiant and beautiful :)

One treatment and the next day I could walk again. My back had been seizing for 5 days. I realize not everyone will have the same results but it's certainly worth trying. read more

Billy is a god send he is truly a miracle worker. The office is more like a spa with relaxing massage chairs and a tranquil environment. Warning you may fall asleep! I trust my entire family to see Billy and would highly recommend him. read more

Want to look like Pinhead from Hellraiser in a serene scenic spa setting? I kid, I kid. The lovely Kemlyn B. gifted me with her free acupuncture session for a friend so off we went on a journey to get poked in order to get relaxed! For each new client there is an online intake form you can fill out where you list your basic information, medical history and what ailments you wish to have treated for your appointment. The room is relaxing and peaceful but set up more like an upscale version of a community acupuncture room, with comfortable zero gravity chairs that have an automated massage option and privacy curtains in between chairs. I had never done acupuncture before so I didn't really know what to expect. My acupuncturist was Kiya. She was very nice and skilled with the fine art of the medical needle. For most of the acupuncture areas I barely felt anything but for a couple of the more troublesome spots I felt a small pinch that went away after a second. One spot did have some recurring mild throbbing that lessened after Kiya patted my arm a few times. While you sit in the super comfortable chair, practicing the art of being a human pincushion, you can glance at the soothing TV screens showing ultra high def images of the beach or other serene nature scenes, or you may simply close your eyes and meditate on the finer aspects of being a temporary porcupine. After the treatment was over my ear did gush some blood after a needle was taken out. Drip, drip, dribble... It was quickly mopped up with some towel and the bleeding soon went away after that initial needle withdrawal. Let's just say don't wear your Sunday best to an acupuncture session. Luckily none got on my shirt! Everyone here was very friendly and when we were done with your appointment the lovely front desk person made us a tea of our choice. There were about 3-4 choices of tea when I was here and you can have it iced or hot. The tea I had was a cool calm and refreshing beverage. The normal cost is $59 for a walk in session, with discounts for signing up on a monthly plan. I'd love to come back again but due to location which is far from where I live I may have to put future appointments on hold for now. If you live in the area though it's a good choice for pain relief therapy, or for even lowering high blood pressure and treating allergies. read more

Modern Acupuncture - Save those container sleeves for your next acupuncture buddy! - Acupuncture Near Me - SCOTTSDALE, Arizona

Modern Acupuncture has altered my paradigm about acupuncture treatments. My prior treatments were delivered in a traditional Chinese medicine shop or at a clinical doctor's office-like setting. Modern Acupuncture magical and tranquil Zen Den pairs acupuncture with a spa experience. The simple and thoughtful decor whisper relax and rest. This is genius because for most people, the notion of having needles pricking you is the opposite of relaxation. So, why didn't anyone else think about creating a setting that helps clients relax their muscles with soft mood music, the sounds of running water, heavenly aromas and low lighting? As you wait for your appointment, MA invites you to pick out a tea for after your treatment. Your tea is served up hot or cold as desired. Enter the double doors that complete a gorgeous, texturiffic Mandala. You are transported into a quiet world with semi-private curtains, waterfalls, sweet aromas and comforting music. Your practitioner will invite you to place your shoes and belongings in a basket beside a chair. This chair is worth the whole treatment. It is a fully reclining chair that is more comfortable than any bed I have slept in. It massages and also provides heat. I am usually a massage fan, but I simply love lying in an incline without any added motion. Tip: Ladies, do not wear skirts because they don't have privacy blankets yet. I have experienced treatment from both Kiya and Erica. Both practitioners have offered precise and effective treatment for my sciatic and back pain. The slight pain of insertion quickly dissipates. The relief the acupuncture brings is immediate. If I ever pass another kidney stone, I am coming to MA. After insertion, the next 30 minutes is pure heaven. I found myself in a half sleep half awake state of relaxation. The nights after MA treatments, I slept soundly. After treatment, I enjoyed a delicious cup of tea. I have tried the relaxation tea and the one good for the liver and kidneys. Both were delightful. Tip: If you are planning on receiving a treatment, MA ask that you take an online health survey. You can do this at home before arrival at your leisure. This prepares them to come up with a treatment plan for you. Also, plan on staying a little more than half an hour for your treatment and tea afterwards. I look forward to introducing friends to this ancient technique through Modern Acupuncture. Tip: Modern Acupuncture has a no tipping culture. read more

Modern Acupuncture is calming. Billy is incredible. After my autonomic nervous system went haywire from working in a water damaged building, I heard about the impact acupuncture can have on blood pressure. Scheduling intentional relaxation times with acupuncture was helpful. Being inside the acupuncture room was calming by itself. read more

I love to get poked at Modern Acupuncture! I have the worse allergies, neck pain and headaches. Not only can I get traditional acupuncture to help alleviate these issues, I can get cosmetic acupuncture to make me younger looking and that gives me a glow too?! Sign me up! Yes, I'm now a member and I have already been referring this place to any friend or co worker who has given me a compliment on my look. I love it. You will too. Trust me. read more

I've been having acupuncture treatments here for almost a year now, and have to say how much it has helped me... from GI issues to allergies and arthritis. The therapist is very skilled, kind and slips the needles in painlessly! read more

Be aware what deal you're signing for Alleged $29/12 sessions deal for $350 will become invalid if you'll won't use it within a month, being suggested to come twice a week which turned out to be 8 sessions,short on 4,and then you're automatically enrolled into next month 4 sessions at $39 a session without a warning,which makes it additional charge of about$150 In short,the way this contract is made is misleading. Service performed on the other hand is well done, no complaints here. This is Thompson Peak location read more

Acupuncturist was good though when I tried to pay for 4 sessions I had $187 and 88 cents to give and needed 12 cents and asked the front desk if I could pay the 12 cents at next session she said no and she seemed strange any ways to bad because i was so excited to go to this place twice a week to heal though now I don't feel safe with the front desk person. read more

First off, my treatment was effective for my chief complaint! I came in with mild hip pain that had been flaring up for a month or two and it has not bugged me for a couple days. The young man who treated me was a fully licensed acupuncturist (forgot his name), as all acupuncturists are who work for MA. He used about 10 needles along the lower legs and none in my hands, ears or head. His technique was good and I only felt a slight pinch one time at a point under my ankle. As an acupuncturist myself, I was especially interested in how treatments would be delivered in a lower cost membership-oriented environment without the privacy a clinic like mine offers. Many in my profession have expressed concern over how MA, a Massage Envy and Joint type of franchise, might impact acupuncture. Personally I do not think clinical acupuncturists have much to worry about, and I think many patients who take advantage of membership will benefit from being able to increase the frequency of visits that a lower cost clinic offers. BTW, there's nothing that feels low cost about it. Both acupuncturists were very professional, skilled, and attentive. The receptionist was cheerful and friendly. The decor, fixtures, and color scheme were clean, Zen, and attractive showing attention to detail. Still, I can't give the experience 5 stars. Namely, I was cold from the AC which was pretty noisy. Secondly, too much light came in from the heavy sliding door. The recliners were comfortable even for a short person like me, but they had a massage function that pressed on my needles so I had to stop. The motors to the chairs were also loud and at first I couldn't figure out where that weird noise was coming from. Perhaps I'm aging myself, but here's a 70s SciFi movie reference: the pretty pictures on the overhead flat screen TV made me feel like Edward G. Robinson in Soylent Green. The TVs an unnecessary addition in my opinion. My recommendation is that future MAs skip the motors on the chairs and the flat screen TVs. Perhaps offer a bean bag eye cover to block out light. If I return, I'll probably just use my own music. The music was soft enough to do that. Overall, high marks for staff, more attention to the comfort of patients. read more

Very nice and very relaxing! Needles didn't even hurt! Been going there for 3 years. Also the owner is super nice. Love it . Also helps me relax and takes my stress away read more

Cannot say enough good things about this place. The acupuncturists are professional & knowledgeable. The front desk ladies are very friendly & welcoming. The team here helped me reduce my chronic migraines from multiple a week to only twice this month. I have also noticed a reduction in my anxiety and have been sleeping more soundly than ever before. I feel so relaxed and refreshed after leaving here. Highly recommend giving it a try! read more

This place is SO peaceful! I had a complimentary service at the Arcadia location.. accidentally showed up here instead and they graciously honored it for me! The moment you walk in you can feel the zen. Very modern decor, clean and quiet. The front desk associate walked me through the entire process from paperwork to the end of my treatment, even had complementary tea waiting for me after my service. After filling out my new patient paperwork, I was escorted into the "zen den". I was seated on a very comfortable massage recliner while my therapist greeted me. He went over the treatment, asked what I wanted to get treated and gave me all the options. I was able to get treated for multiple symptoms at once, including cosmetic on my face! They even had LED therapy for your face to use while your laying there. So awesome! The process was very thorough and swift. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you Billy for my awesome treatment today! I will be back. Their pricing is super affordable and I love their concept of making acupuncture more available to everyone. It's a must!! read more

I loved it here! This was my first time trying acupuncture and I will be continuing. The location is great, nice spot near home in North Scottsdale. I made a day out of it and grabbed some yogurt next door and groceries at AJs. The name of this spot couldn't be any more fitting. I'm a tech/modern lady and was highly impressed with the decor. The customer service was top notch and check in process finely tuned. The actual service was very pleasant and beneficial from what I could tell thus far. They have packages available so you can benefit from it both cosmetically and mentally/spiritually, these packages are reasonably priced. I'd highly recommend checking them out if you have yet to do so. read more

After several visits, I think it's time to leave my review. I have been a member for several months now because they do such a good job with the acupuncture that I keep coming back. I usually make my appointments on Wednesdays and have made it a weekly wellness Wednesday routine. First, I go to my chiropractor for adjustments and massage. Then a haircut, facial or pedicure and then treatments at Modern Acupuncture. I always look forward to going to this place because I always feel rejuvenated. I had chronic lower back, and knee pain and the acupuncture treatments have helped alleviate the issues. They have a couple of different plans here, and acupuncture can even treat wrinkles, hair loss, insomnia, smoking weight problems, and more. The treatment rooms are immaculately clean, and their expertise is noticeable after only one treatment. The staff is fabulous and very friendly. Of course, the complimentary tea is always nice. read more

I turned to acupuncture after it was recommended to me by my neurologist for migraines and persistent stress headaches. I was at the point where I was getting a headache every week for three days a time. The first time I went to Modern Acupuncture, everyone was SO friendly and made me feel comfortable in an unfamiliar environment. For the first month, I went about 2 or 3 times a week, and then I noticed that it had been 2 weeks without a headache. The one headache I did have only last half a day. I felt a headache coming on yesterday, and after a session with Erica it immediately went away. I'm so relieved to have found something that works. Besides the benefits of acupuncture, there is a calmness about the Zen Den that forces you to relax for 30 minutes or so, which in and of itself is helpful for stress. I know one of the first questions is if the needles hurt. I'm very sensitive to touch and I have to say that, honestly, sometimes they do at first. I've gotten used to them, but there are always one or two spots where it stings a little at first. I've also learned those are the spots where I hold most of my tension. The acupuncturists are aware of this, so we always kind of laugh about it a little, which relaxes me. Oh, and be prepared for a great night's sleep! read more

I had been so anxious to check out this amazing place and after hearing a wonderful review from my skeptical husband, I finally had a chance to see for myself. What a beautiful zen den they have created! It is set up in a community style room but with privacy curtains in between. Extremely comfortable zero gravity style chairs with a heat and massage option. Beautiful mellow and tranquil music and pretty relaxing decor. The Acupuncturist was very sweet. Addressed my concerns, explained how it all works and then got to putting in the needles. She checked on me again after about and then let me relax and enjoy. After just one treatment a lot of my discomfort I came in for had eased away. I was definitely much more relaxed upon completion of treatment and am definitely looking forward to coming back. I love the walk in option so that it can be accessible to anyone. Thank you all for wonderful service and tasty tea at the end! read more

Wow! I never thought I would get into acupuncture but this has been a game changer for me. Modern Acupuncture is clean, the staff is friendly and the treatments are amazing. I've done Cosmetic Acupuncture a few times and am already seeing a change in my skin. I've also noticed that leaving treatments, my stress level is reduced and I'm sleeping better at night. I'm so happy I gave this a try and am exited about continuing my treatment plan. read more

I absolutely loved this place! It was my first experience with acupuncture and I can not say enough great things about this place. For starters, the staff is amazing! They knew it was my first time and thoroughly explained everything to me. Next, the facility is beautiful and nothing like what I was expecting to walk into. The decor is very modern and clean - A+! And lastly, I would seriously pay just to come in and sit in their chairs - they were so comfortable and had heat/massage. Needless to say...I have already signed up for my next appointment :) read more

So was going to this acupuncture place all fine and good. Got pretty good results. So decided to cancel well before they take another payment out. Very disappointed they took out the payment anyway. So i called to get this straightened out and the girl tells me that when anyone cancels they go ahead and take out another payment anyway. Not happy. Why would. I want to come 2 more times with the package I had when I cancelled my package and upcoming appointments? Thats why I don't normally let my credit card on file to have payments taken out. Wont do that again! read more

Great staff & easy to get in for a quick appointment. My sciatic nerve pain has improved greatly. I have had a really good experience with each therapist that I've seen. Love it. read more

My friend referred me here and we stopped by last minute to try and get squeezed in. Not only was the front receptionist beyond friendly, but she was able to get us both appointments at the same time. It was only a 15 minute wait. I was so thrilled with the experience and how relaxing it was. I've had many joint issues and chronic migraines for a decade. I left feeling better than I had for weeks. I know it's more helpful with continuous care, so I'm definitely going to be back! read more

My first experience with Modern Acupuncture and (any acupuncture for that matter) was really great! Everyone was very friendly and professional. The zen room was super relaxing and the acupuncturist was very informative. The days after my visit I got some amazing sleep! Can't wait to go back. read more

I've been to an acupuncturist before so I knew what to expect. The concept at modern is a little different. Instead of being in a room alone you're in a large, dimly lite room filled with recliners on either side. Before entering you'll take an assessment so that once you go through this cool door ( out of a Harry Potter movie) you are instructed what recliner to go to. My acupuncturist Billy welcomed me once I was seated and asked if I had any questions and then he began to insert the needles. I'm always a little nervous ( I feel like a pen cushion) but he was so good none of them hurt even after he adjusted them. I was able to relax and honestly once I was done I felt great. Before you leave you're given your choice of teas prepared cold or hot. The atmosphere and everyone were very pleasant. If you're not opposed to being in a room with others for your session this is the place to go. It was a good experience and I'd definitely come back. read more

One of my friends asked me to go with him to Modern Acupuncture. I was scared because it was my first time but immediately after walking in the energy was so good all of those nerves went away. This was one of the best experiences I have ever had, acupuncture truly works for stress relief, pain relief and I 100% believe it makes your skin look and feel so much better! read more

Clean, friendly, personalized. Got me right in at scheduled appt time. I immediately felt better same day!! I'll be returning for sure!!

When I first heard of this concept (basically walk in acupuncture) I was intrigued. While I had never had it performed on me before I know many people who have and they all swear by it. Luckily the owner is someone I know personally and trust at a high level, especially when it comes to health, mind, and body. Everyone at modern acupuncture has been great. I've yet to meet a therapist or employee that hasn't made me feel welcome yet. AND best of all, I've discovered that accupuncture is the most relaxing thing I've ever experienced. read more

I had a great experience at Modern Acupuncture. The staff was all very friendly and professional. The atmosphere was calming and peaceful which is just what I needed trying acupuncture for the 1st time! I'll be going back for more. read more

I have been going to MA for about a year now. I can't say enough good things about it. I originally went in for acute back pain and that was better in just 2 sessions. I have had digestive issues treated, acute knee pain is better, and now I even get the cosmetic acupuncture. I really feel so relaxed after a session. If you have ever considered acupuncture, you should really try Modern Acupuncture. It is unlike any other acupuncture place. It is so zen! read more

As the name implies Modern Acupuncture has brought the ancient healing methods of acupuncture into the present. Although I have had acupuncture treatments in the past my first visit was more than I expected. This was all about making me feel good again. This initial appointment gathered in-depth, but not intrusive, information on my health, any problems that I was having and would wish to address. After this was completed I was escorted in to the Zen Den for my session. The heated massaging chair that I reclined in was quite pleasant. The acupuncturist asked if I was comfortable before assessing my information and beginning my session. With the massaging of the chair, the calming music, scenic video and the gentleness of the acupuncturist, it was not long before I dozed. The thirty minute session seemed over quickly. The feeling of being completely relaxed along with benefits provided by the acupuncture and a hot tea left me very refreshed. There is no doubt I will be returning. read more

My husband and I went here 3 or 4 times now....we love it!!! It's has a spa atmosphere so you feel like you're being pampered in their Zen Den with the awesome door that you just have to see, but the acupuncturists really know what they're doing and everyone there is super friendly! My husband and I both have lower back pain and I was also dealing with pain in my knee. We both felt great and much less pain after each treatment. I would definitely recommend this place!! Love love love it!!!! read more

6 weeks ago I injured my lower back at the gym. I went to urgent care and a back specialist and after 3 weeks I still was not feeling any relief, the pain was still affecting my daily life and I was beginning to grow worried that this was going to be a very long term issue. I decided to go to Modern Accupuncture hoping to just get some slight relief. After the first treatment I was pleasantly surprised to find that it improved enough that it was no longer pain, just discomfort. By the third treatment it is nearly GONE! I'm so grateful I made the decision to go in. The staff, facility and treatment were fantastic! read more

I am hooked! What a fabulous concept...the Zen Den made me feel like I was on vacation. I went in with overwhelming anxiety and stress, and left feeling calm, relaxed and focused. I slept through the night for the first time in ..a LONG time. Choose a flavor for your cup of tea that you get after your treatment. They also do cosmetic acupuncture for fine lines and wrinkles! I scheduled my next appointment already. I'm truly impressed by this place....everyone was welcoming and gracious, and the concept is ground-breaking. I'm MAKING time for this regularly...so many benefits. read more

They are very helpful for first timers and have a very calm and peaceful atmosphere! It's a great way to relieve stress!

I have been coming here since I was about 12 weeks pregnant, currently 37 weeks. They have helped me with nausea, heartburn and all the ailments that come with pregnancy. I highly recommend everyone go. Pam is awesome and is so knowledgeable! Love my weekly visits here! read more

Love the staff. The location in North Scottsdale is gorgeous. Once again, the staff is seriously the best. I can't wait for my appointment next week. read more

Both acupuncturists are very good. They know how to treat symptoms, implant the needles (mostly) painlessly, and will work on several of your issues at once. They'll even throw in an acupuncture facelift during the same session if you request it. The spa's design is attractive and extremely peaceful, the prices are good, and the owner is personable as well. Overall, this is a very good deal. read more
