Nicole does my massage and she is excellent! I have tight shoulders and I feel so much improvement since I started seeing her. I love that she uses the right amount of pressure every time. I started getting acupuncture as well and it has made me feel more relaxed and rested. The first time I tried it, Dr. Liu was reassuring and answered all the questions I had. My husband also received massage and acupuncture for a painful still neck, and felt relief after a couple of treatments. Dr. Liu is so thoughtful and still asks how my husband is doing. Page helps me make appointments and is helpful and friendly. She texts me to remind me of my appointment times and I like texting to make an appointment or to make changes when it is inconvenient for me to call. The people at Taiwellness are so likable and I feel at home every time. I highly recommend it! read more

From the first call from Page, everyone here makes the visits feel like you are the only person being seen. When you come in Page sets you up to get treatment from Acupuncturist Kuei. The treatment rooms are clean and the atmosphere in the office is soothing and calm. At my fist visit I was hesitant and all my fears and questions were answered completely by Kuei. If you get to Pasadena, Ca visit Tai Wellness Center specially for a massage. read more

This is a long overdue review for Wendy, she is a stellar masseuse! I had knots all over my neck and shoulders because I work 12 hours shift in the hospital. Wendy always worked really hard to help me get rid of them. She's friendly, funny, professional and thorough. I walked in stressed and always always walked out rejuvenated. Thank you Wendy for your consistently great care! read more

Jassmine is the absolute best. I've been seeing her for many weeks now and she genuinely cares not only about my physical health but mental health as well. She is truly very holistic with her treatment. I was always nervous about getting acupuncture but she eased all my anxieties and I keep going back because it is effective. She also does the cupping technique on me and is extremely accommodating to any discomfort I might be feeling. I keep going back every week to see her. She makes me feel validated because she gets to know me as a person and she is a great conversationalist. I would recommend her to everyone. read more

Tai Wellness center is run by extremely genuine, kind and helpful folks. I am very satisfied by receiving acupuncture and cupping here- numerous strains and issues have been resolved since I have been going here for over a year and a half now. Each treatment feels like a new experience in that he is truly responding to my specific needs each time. I have been especially helped alleviate injuries with my ankle and wrist issues from working from home. A lot of stresses, both mental strain and physically in my neck back next shoulders, that I had previously are no longer an issue thanks to my sessions here. Thank you so much for your great client care! I will continue to go here as stresses and issues arise. read more

Amazing service! The cupping was great and really helped relieve my pain. The massage was wonderful as well! I mentioned that my shoulder and back were the parts of me that were the worst and she spent so much time on it! I felt like a new person! read more

The lady was very nice and strong, my experience was different, half the time she massaged me over a towel, the rest of the time she used too much oil on my back; walked out twice and one other time, someone else opened the door and closed it. I got a massage for sure because she was so strong, I won't go back. read more

I have been coming here for almost 2 months for treatment of a large herniated disc in my neck at C6/C7. I am very sensitive, and Dr. Liu is very skilled at treating my injury. I have two treatments per week of acupuncture and massage. Every two weeks I've been able to reduce the pain medication I take. And after 6-8 weeks of treatment I am not taking any pain medication at all. And I am able to tolerate sitting in a chair for more than a few minutes without nerve pain in my arm. I am a neuroscience professor so this has been life changing for me. Well, I should say the herniation was life changing & the treatment has given me my life back. I would highly recommend Dr. Liu! read more

My dad has been going to this place for a while and I'm noticing and improvement in his body and also he has been losing weight so this place is perfect glad he can find something to help him. read more

Nicole was awesome. She really worked on my knots. Plenty of street parking. They also validate parking in the lot. I had the Groupon deal for 90 mins oriental massage. They said can have the same price without the Groupon. Awesome!!! Definitely recommended. I'll be back again. They also have other services offered: acupuncture, cupping, etc. read more

I came here for Acupuncture and massage treatment because of my back pain. Dr. Liu is specialized in treating back pain so he helped me to relief pain right after his Acupuncture treatment! Also, the massage therapy here is awesome! The therapists are very friendly and professional! I'm so glad that found this place! read more

I have been suffering for insomnia over 5 years. Lack of sleep made me fatigued and sick so I have tried so many different ways to improve my sleep, such as sleeping pills and supplements, none of them helped! Eventually, I heard friends recommended Acupuncture and I had my very first acupuncture treatment at Dr. Liu's office. He gently placed the needle without pain and he tried his best to ease my nerves of getting acupuncture treatment. Incredibly, I slept well after only a few visits of acupuncture treatment. Thanks to Dr. Liu for bringing my sleep and quality of life back! read more

I have now seen Dr. Tai for acupuncture treatment twice. Being new to this treatment, Dr. Tai made me feel so comfortable and very confident about his knowledge. I have been pleasantly surprised that I have already felt relief from my pain and I look forward to continue seeing Dr. Tai for furthur treatment. Robin N. 3/16/2017 read more

Horrible business . Their boss just very judgmental and mean . I have made 2 appointment with them , and at that 2 days I got some emergency coming and have to adjust or cancel the reservation. After then I just cannot make a even phone call to this business . Today I walked in their business and personally making appointment with their staff. After I already made my appointment , they just texted me to cancel my service and asking me to contact Groupon to refund which will wasting my lots of time to do that. And I nicely talked to her to take me to the service again , and the owner said that she would extra charge 20 dollars to do this for me. And the owner not only refuse to service me but only judge me as I responsible . This is so horrible and ridiculous . Don't go there. read more

Tai Wellness - Acupuncture Near Me - Pasadena, California

The service here unorganized and unprofessional. I had an appointment for a 60 minute massage scheduled from 6:30pm-7:30pm, which was delayed. I figured it was alright and that these things happen. However, the masseuse didn't enter the room until 6:47pm. She cut the massage at 7:30pm which turned it into a 40 minute massage. Not to mention that she left the room multiple times to get supplies. Why not be prepared and leave them in the room? So I probably got less than a 40 minute massage. To make things worse the masseuse wouldn't let me leave without giving her a $10 tip! I had to argue with her and explain that I didn't get what I paid for and wasn't about to give her more money. She kept arguing that it wasn't her fault my appointment was delayed. Bottom line, do not come here. The massages are mediocre and the service is unprofessional. If you're brave enough to enter be ready to fight with the masseuses. read more

What a great atmosphere, lovely massage and nice staff. Definitely would recommend coming here to anyone that needs a good massage!

I am so pleased with the therapy I receive here Acupuncture and deep tissue message. I was referred here by workman's comp. After many years of pain with my hands, wrist and eldows I founds some relief with Dr. Liu. Getting rid of many knots and tight muscles. This has limit me from taking medication for pain on a daily basis. read more

I love this place! I had horrible pain in my lower back after a car accident that disabled me from walking and sitting. I was in complete bed rest for 11 months.I tried muscle relaxers, physical therapy and chiropractic care before I decided to try acupuncture. Dr. Kuie was really welcoming, gentle, and patient towards my first acupuncture treatment. I come here weekly now the place is clean, staff is friendly and parking is so easy. Also, the masseurs are the best ask for (Rachel or Kenny). I thank God I found this Wellness center it has completely changed my life. I am pain free and able to be walk and do my normal activities back again. I highly Recommend this place! read more

This place is a hidden treasure. Dr. Liu was very attentive, informative, and personable during my visit. Besides his wonderful acupuncture and cupping technical skills which helped relieve my agonizing back muscle pain, he also educated me how to relax my back muscles to prevent recurring pain. He would inform me beforehand every procedure he was going to perform. He also discussed and explained for any insurance charges that might incur. The ambiance was so relaxing here that I even fell asleep during the treatment session. Overall, my experience here was very positive and I would highly recommend anyone seeking Chinese traditional medicine with acupuncture and cupping ...etc to come experience yourself. read more

I don't think massage therapists should confront you about their tip. Especially if you give them 10-15%. This place lists "recommended" tip amounts at the counter and the minimum is $10. The therapist I had hovered over me to make sure I not only gave them a tip but also that I gave them at least $10. The massage was ok, but not great. I ordered hot stones but therapist only used them for about 30 minutes and they mostly just sat on my back. She didn't use them on my arms, legs, or feet. In fact, I didn't even get a foot massage and I'm pretty sure she cut the massage time by 5-8 minutes b/c I was dressed and out the door exactly an hour after my appointment started and I was on my phone for about 5 min after she left the room. Also, the room/sheets had a moldy/stale smell so they clearly aren't cleaning as well as they should be. I would NOT recommend this place and I won't be returning. read more

Great friendly and professional staff for excellent acupuncture, acupressure and massage!

This is a long overdue review. I went to this clinic for weight problem. After discussing my concern and my goal, Dr Liu decided to use acupuncture along with herbal tea to suppress my appetite. I have never had been given any acupuncture treatment before, but Dr Liu was very gentle and careful. I'm very sensitive to pain but Dr Liu's skill made the entire experience virtually painless. Dr Liu is very knowledgeable and highly skilled professional. When you run out of option on your medical problem, I highly recommend you to give it a shot with Dr Liu. read more

I found this place through Groupon and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The massage was by far the best massage I've ever had. I went for the 90-minute oriental massage and it was amazing. I had a male therapist, but I didn't catch his name - sorry. I did have to wait a few extra minutes in the room like others have mentioned, but the overall experience was just about perfect. I will definitely be back....and without a Groupon. read more

First time， the front desk asked for 3% charge for credit card , and strongly suggested customer use Venmo to pay. Second time the front desk strongly suggested customer to pay tips more than 20% read more

I purchased through a groupon for 90-minute massage for deep tissue for a really good deal. I scheduled at this place bcs they were available for the same day and my usual massage place is booked until next week. I had really back pain and wanted my knots to go away! First of all, they didnt really give me enough pressure even after I asked her to, and it's deep tissure so supposedly the pressure is strong. So I just let her do whatever she did. 90-minutes later, the knots still there and the massage didnt help at all. I told her that it didnt help and she told me to do acupuncture instead bcs massage wouldn't really help. I did LOTS of massages and usually they helped and my knots would go away. I'm not coming back again. read more

TAI Wellness Center has helped me so much with pain. Had pain in my ankle due to an injury that over time had affected my whole right leg. I could not believe how the pain has lessened after each acupuncture treatment. Thought I was going to have to live with this pain for the rest of my life. Didn't think that the pain reduction results would be so great. This place has excellent customer service, close to my home, and responds to phone calls in a very timely matter. read more

If you are like me it is very difficult to find a great doctor since we have more choices than ever and every type of online rating service out there. So, I hope this review of Tai Wellness and Dr. Lui helps you along the way. Dr. Lui is exactly who you want to visit because as an acupuncturist specialist he will successfully work on your particular pain areas or other physical problem. Dr. Lui is one of those rare professional who has that special touch, which he uses to locate the specific problem areas that will require his treatment. I also appreciate how Dr. Lui asks questions about my overall health and body issues even if I think the other issues may be irrelevant to the reason for my visit. Plus, he is a great listener and a very thoughtful person. At every visit I feel the doctor is always engaged and concerned about my progress as opposed to those who after the first visit just go into automatic or simply gives you the same instructions as the last time. Dr. Lui successfully treated a shoulder pain I had for many years and I had no relief from my MD or physical therapist or pain killers. And, the office is peaceful and clean as you would expect. I highly recommend Tai Wellness for those looking for an effective and professional practitioner. I have seen many acupuncturist throughout my life and I can honestly say this is the best I have ever experience. Oh, and easy parking on the street or parking lot. read more

I came to the center for acupuncture to treat neck and shoulder pain that I have been dealing with for over a year. I had tried acupuncture before with no success so I was doubtful it would help but my doctor suggested it so I gave it a try. I am so glad I did! After a few visits I started to feel some relief and now I feel better than I have in a long time! Dr. Liu and his team are great, the office and rooms are very clean and pleasant, they are very accommodating with appointment scheduling and I feel very relaxed after I leave the office. I highly recommend Tai Wellness Center. read more

Updating this review to 5 stars for the consistently great care and friendly staff. My lower back pain is pretty much gone. So glad I found Kuei and the team. read more

Got a discount massage on Groupon, and there's a reason. Greeted by an Asian man who handed me a very small form to sign, which stated in bold red print that I was not getting anything sexual done. Well, that's a relief, cuz in my condition, it would have made matters worse. I was not looking for a happy ending, just relief from a bad muscle pull. I went into a small stark room, zero ambiance and was given a wrap around towel to put on and lie on top of the table. No sheet, no heat, just a cold room. An Asian gal entered and saw I was in pain, she called in the 'Dr.' who suggested cupping to help relieve the pain along with the massage. I was in so much pain that for $30 extra, I would try it. Both individuals proceeded to speak Chinese not informing me of what they were saying. The cupping was uncomfortable but neither seemed to care. After the 'Dr.' left the room, the gal started the massage. She pointed out three times that I was overweight and it wasn't good. Once, yeh, ok, I agreed I needed to work a little harder, but I am not huge, just need to drop about 20 pounds. The next 2 times pissed me off. She then went on about getting insurance and coming back for cupping, acupuncture, massage, etc. She must have brought this up 4 times. While lying there pretty much naked, she opened the door, which opens to the waiting area, anyone sitting there gets a real good look at you! Zero privacy and poorly thought out design, I went to pay the $30 extra for the cupping and the 'Dr.' had me fill out a form and asked me twice to get my Kaiser Dr. to give a referral. I told him that K.P. doesn't give referrals and he said they do and showed me a form. I had the full court press from both of them to get insurance. I have had massages all over the U.S. and never have encountered a place like this. You have been warned. read more
