I was experiencing extreme lower back pain and couldn't stand straight. I was able to get in to see Dr. Lu the day before Thanksgiving. I had never tried acupuncture however, I was pretty much bed ridden in the hospital 5 days pShow morerior and given LOTS of pain medication which I am against, so I came to her to see what she suggested. She performed acupuncture in the troubled area for about 10 minutes. When finished asked me to stand and how I felt. I wanted to cry! The pain was gone and instantly I felt relieved. I went on a 3 mile walk that day and felt like my self again. I have continued to get treatments of massage, acupuncture and cupping when I start to feel tense or tight and absolutely LOVE Dr. Lu and her associate.
Dr. Lu really took the time to talk with me about my health history, my concerns and her observations based on her health exam. She thoroughly explained the treatment plan and I left feeling a lot better and can't wait to go backShow more!

Work has been crazy busy. But definitely needed to make an appointment as my lower back aches often. Went in today for a massage and acupuncture. Left feeling like a new woman. Highly recommend their services.
Great experience as a first timer. HIGHLY recommend.
Attentive, thorough. Comfortable experience with professionals. I feel way better already

Dr. Lu and her staff are miracle workers. They are extremely patient and thoughtful in their care and got me from pain to relief in just two sessions.
Dr Lu is very caring and took the time to listen to my comers and discuss what can be done. The office is clean and staff are all very friendly
