We were looking for a new acupuncturist after our longtime provider retired. While visiting the…read moreDunhuang Shopping Center, we decided to try this place because they offered cupping for $35, which seemed reasonable. My provider charged $25 for 30 minutes and applied baby oil. Scheduling was easy via phone. When my husband and I arrived, the practice was run by one woman and one man, and the man performed the cupping. Unfortunately, the experience was terrible and disappointing. The cotton ball dipped with alcohol as it was used to create suction was heavily burned and blackened, and the inside of the glass cups was also dark and appeared unclean. The suction was extremely weak--some cups felt like they were about to fall off. My husband noticed the same issue before I did. Afterward, I raised my concerns with the woman, explaining that the cupping was unusually loose. Instead of acknowledging the issue, they denied there was any problem. I have extensive experience with cupping and know how it should be done. While the price was low, the lack of hygiene and poor technique are unacceptable. I would not return and do not recommend this place.

Just a note: customized blends require a consultation and do not include the herbs. Check them out!

About three years ago I was experiencing shortness of breath dizziness, fatigue, heart palpitations…read moreand headaches. I went to my GP who said everything was fine and referred me to a Cardiologist. The Cardiologist ran all his tests and he said everything was fine. Well, I wasn't fine so I decided to look into Eastern Medicine. I Googled the nearest herbalist and found Longevity Mountain Herbs. I completed the forms, sent them in and got an appointment with Mark Hammer. I didn't know what to expect but this appt would be a turning point in my life. We sat down for a chat and he said Candy, you are going to start feeling better in a few days. I told him that in addition to my other issues, I had bladder pain so he gave me four yellow pills (Bladder Comfort) and we discussed my treatment plan and by the time that we were through, my pain was gone! Well about the other issues, Mark explained to me that my blood was too thick and wasn't flowing well and not getting to my brain and heart like it should and that's what was causing the palpitations, dizziness, fatigue and shortness of breath and he gave me Female Comfort and within 3 days, it was working. I had more energy and my dizziness was gone and I was able to walk to my car in the parking garage without feeling like I was going to pass-out. I've always said that good nutrition and vitamins have side- benefits. In other words, you can take them for one thing but you may have other issues that will improve over time with your health. My case in point is that we all know that good circulation is good for men and women's sexual health and performance. I told Mark that he should add a Warning label to his product that said, something like...BEST IF TAKEN WHILE IN A RELATIONSHIP! Lol. (jus sayin). At this point, my bladder isn't painful anymore and I'm feeling much better! I have more energy than I have had in a very long time. Well, I didn't stop there! I asked Mark what he had for ADD. He gave me Spirit Comfort. It helped me so much with work and home. I went through a period of reflection and inventory of my life and I did something about everything that I didnt like. I told Mark that it was like finding my voice and I started standing up for myself. It was truly life altering. I got a raise at work and I worked on all my personal relationships and everything got better. Well, I didn't stop there. I asked Mark if he had anything for hair loss and he said that he had the ancient Chinese treatment for hair loss, Hair Rejuve. My temples were receding and my part was thinning out. I am so happy to say that my hair filled in very nicely. I am 55+ and there is no way I will fail to mention Menopause Comfort and Heart Comfort. They make me feel calm and happy and they give me a sense of well-being and are highly recommended. Due to space and time I'll wrap this up by saying that Mark has been in the business for over 30 years and he learned from the best! He's a great person, he's helpful and he knows his stuff! There are not enough stars for him on this app. Take care all, God bless.

The biggest advantage is plenty of parking. My recent visit was a little disappointing. He said I was fat. He sold me some ready-made herbal medicines to improve my cardiovascular system. A month later, I still feel fat. Of course, traditional Chinese medicine takes time. But I don't have the patience. He used the auscultation method to measure my blood pressure and he pumped several times to get a reading. His diagnosis was "I had thick blood." Mmm... Ok, that sounded better than my thick fat. Other than the traditional herbal formulas, Oriental Herbs & Lulin Acupuncture is also an exclusive dealer for some Chinese herbal supplements made in US.

I was referred by my Yelpers friend Mark W. Few years ago, I was desperately looking for a reliable and knowledgeable acupuncturist near me. Most of them in Chinatown don't meet my basic requirements. Mark said, "try my mom." I've gotta tell you, after my first treatment I felt like someone took away a rucksack filled with rocks off of my back. I came back for sciatica pain few weeks later. This time was an acupuncture treatment. Dr. Lu's technique is very skillful. There were 2 types needles, orange one applied to my forehead and others in my belly and legs. I didn't feel any different right after. But I felt energizes after 4 hours of my usual grocery shopping. I normally take an hour nap before repackaging meats away. But that day, I had so much energy I even cooked our dinner, prepared my lunch and washed dishes. People always think Yelp is for restaurants and Yelpers are all foodies. Not so fast. There are so many non-food businesses in town that with mentioning. You may have seen my cupping photos (multiple shades of circles on my back). That is an ancient Chinese method to improve blood circulation. Once air is drawn out of a glass cup, it's applied to my back immediately. Doctor will move the cups like playing mahjong on my back. I really don't know how it works but it felt so good afterwards. The circles disappeared after a couple of days. I swam with my tank top, because I don't want to freak people out. **1st review of 2018**
