The needles were first. All of them in my shoulder were painless, but the three down my arm "at acupuncture points" were like lightning at first. The cupping followed. Dr. Wang applied a bunch of them quickly. The atmosphere of the treatment area is nice and comfortable. She makes sure you're warm enough and leaves you with a nightlight so you can nap. I don't know if I'm "healed," but im pleased with this visit and her professionalism was appreciated. I'd definitely return.

I was dealt a severe case of septic arthritis and had so much of the virus in my body from the ability to answer people and discuss anything without realizing what was going on. 1 1/2 months and 7 hospitals before being diagnosed . 5 months of intense acupuncture treatments and a gym trainer I was able to walk with out assistance and my memory lapse took over 6 years and still have issues with but I'm alive and can run on a treadmill.

Dr Ruiping Chi is very experienced and knowledgeable in acupuncture and has also worked as an…read moreallopathic doctor in China. She knows about western medicines as well but practices acupuncture. I have found immense relief in joint pain and feel she can alleviate pain without side effects. She also provides Chinese herbal medicines that work in tandem, but focuses on acupuncture as a main treatment. She is very good with patients and has a good bedside manner. She is very accomodative to scheduling and works with you. Many people are skeptical of needles being inserted, but it is done with skill and Dr Ruiping knows the acupuncture points very well. It is a good idea to know about acupuncture to get rid of your fears and doubts. I recommend her for great pain relief.

Her diagnostic skills are extraordinary -- she is uncanny and precise in troubleshooting my current health condition. She also explains her treatments well, she is open to complementary modes of healing, and she respects her patients views and opinions. And while I've had a lot of experience with acupuncture, Vicky is very patient, gentle, and professional, traits that should reassure anyone interested in acupuncture treatment. But none of this, however, would really matter if the treatments didn't work. But they do work. Vicky is terrific. I've gone to see her with everything from gout flares, to flu-like symptoms, to stress-related conditions. Each time, I've come away feeling much, much better. My pain is gone, I feel more relaxed, and I get fantastic sleep. These days, I see Vicky for what I call my monthly "tune-ups." I feel great knowing that I'm being proactive with my health and well being. Finally, I can't say enjoy about Vicky's staff. Like Vicky, they are personable, professional, and strive to give great customer service. Every office visit is a joy. What else can I say? RVA Acupuncture is a Five-Star operation. Richmond is lucky to have her.

I am so glad I found John and WEN. I have been struggling with a pulled hamstring for several…read moremonths now and finally decided to try acupuncture for treatment. After 4 sessions, I'm feeling more limber and a lot less pain in my hamstring. The atmosphere here is comfortable and relaxing too. I fall asleep every time. Prices are fair. $120 for an initial session where they go over family history and discuss your goals for treatment. Then $80 for additional visits. If you haven't tried acupuncture before, you should. I've used it for everything from my hamstring to my back to helping me quit smoking (over 5 years without a cigarette!)

After relocating, it was challenging to find a massage that works for me…read more I have booked three appointments with Taiwan Spa and now they have a permanent customer. It's important to note that I have only requested deep tissue massages. (We're talking about using feet, elbows, and forearms.) I'm sure you can request much lighter pressure and longer strokes too. But people that are looking for fascia release? Look no further!

This place, at some point in time, was a stellar spot to get professional massages. The first owner…read moreactually had people who knew what they were doing. My visits during this time always left me leaving with wobbly legs because the masseuse had hit all the right knots. Then that owner sold it, maybe around 2020, to non-Taiwanese people. Suddenly, it was the sort of staff you'd find on every street in Chinatown, NY. I asked for the same treatment as I did the first couple of times. Not only did she skip the hot stones and stepping, it felt like I never got a massage just hours later. Needless to say, I never went back. I know another reviewer mentioned how the staff is filled with people that travel in and live together while they are here. That is correct. These are the kind of Chinese people that take one lesson, if any, and say they are qualified to perform the job. Don't get me wrong, some are truly skilled in their chosen profession. This lady I had simply was not that. Aside from that, the staff was very kind towards me. If you are lucky enough to find a masseuse that can take care of your problems here, then call it a blessing. Their price range is actually decent. I simply didn't want to spend the money on a guessing game and chose a spot much closer to home where I'm guaranteed a knot-breaking session by a true professional.

Dr. Nguyen gets the secret sixth Yelp star from me…read more After my OB-GYN told me that it was unlikely I would be able to have kids naturally due to early adulthood cancer, I went to Dr. Nguyen to see if she could help. Trying to get pregnant is an extremely discouraging and demeaning process but Dr. Nguyen was able to help me get in tune with my body in a way that I never knew how. Even in my darkest moments she was always encouraging and insightful and her sunny outlook kept me going even when I was about to give up. In fact, I had pretty much completely given up when I finally got that positive sign that I had been hoping for. My treatment did not end there, I worked with Dr. Nguyen during my first trimester to make sure my baby was healthy and strong and my body was running like a well-oiled machine. I'm not quite sure if I just got off lucky or if the acupuncture was just really effective because I've been feeling even BETTER than I did before I got pregnant. Except for a few charlie horses here and there I did not suffer from nausea or other typical ailments at all. What I like about about Dr. Nguyen is her balanced approached to alternative medicine and she never seems to recommend treatments that I don't need (although I almost kind of want them because it's so relaxing and zen in there). I feel very safe and comfortable in her hands and have been so glad to have her in my arsenal of self care tools. She recently relocated to a brand new office in Tysons Corner which is super modern, chic and quiet -- perfect for relaxing! You can also book and cancel appointments online which is very convenient. Thank you so much Dr. Nguyen from me and my entire family. I can happily say that this is the most life changing business I have found thanks to Yelp!

She is located inside Parlor on Broad St. I love this salon atmosphere. It harmoniously blends with the aesthetic of EB and is just as friendly and open as Linda. She is so professional and warm and is great for continued pain management. Her room is so inviting that you float away almost immediately. Linda is wonderful if you like variety of massage. I've had her hot stone and deep tissue and both were a revelation. If I could afford it, I would get a massage once a week. She has very strong hands and knows how to use her strength so that I get the most out of my time with her. I can really never have too much pressure and she gets it right every time. All of my friends and family go to Essential Bodyworks because they know they will get what they need every time. I tested my hypothesis by getting a massage elsewhere this week because I had an old gift certificate. I could hardly relax because I was noticing every way in which the massage therapist was not Linda. Linda's massages are seamless and perfect and I would not change a thing. Can't wait for my next massage!!
