Within just two sessions, I noticed a huge improvement! She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about her patients’ well-being. The treatment was effective, and I finally feel hopeful about being pain-free. I highly recommend Dr. Xia to anyone dealing with chronic pain—she’s fantastic!

This is my second time seeing Dr. Haifeng Wang (Helen). She knows exactly what is needed to help me and so far things are looking up. I also brought my partner with me this time. He has never had acupuncture or cupping before. For 20 years he's had a job that's been physically demanding. After one session, he already says his neck doesn't feel as tight as it used to. We are incredibly pleased with Dr. Wang's work. She is kind and caring. You're definitely in good hands with her. 🙂 Also, front reception is a delite to interact with. I forgot her name. My apologies. But, she works on Sundays and is always so helpful and informative. Many thanks to Huatuo Clinic for making our visit(s) always a welcoming and pleasant one.
Honestly, I was little pit scared from the needle and was in doubt from the outcome.
I chose Dr. Kyle Picard who is my personal friend. As an acupuncturist. he is a magician. He explained every detail before and during the procedure. I had only 2 sessions , and a2 days after it showed the effects. Within 2 weeks it’s gone. I can walk without ankle brace and my life is back to normal 😀
Thank you Dr. Kyle, thank you for Huatuo clinic assistants and receptionist . Everyone there are professional and welcoming. The clinic itself is very clean and relaxing. I will recommend this clinic to everyone.
I have been to other acupuncturists and Dr Wang stands out by far. I have full confidence my health problems are getting better under her care.
I informed her of everything going on and I liked the fact that she didn’t force a treatment on my like we have to do something etc. she listened and we came to an agreement on a plan that suits me.
Always feel treated as a valued patient & customer. I never feel rushed through their methods of healing or pressured by upselling of their products & services in any way.
The environment of Huatuo Clinic is also very comfortable and the staff are friendly.
Products were very effective. Many thanks Vinod Raja
Dr. Stella's approach was both professional and compassionate. She took the time to listen to my concerns and explained the acupuncture process thoroughly, which helped me feel more comfortable and informed. Her expertise was evident as she skillfully applied the needles, ensuring minimal discomfort.
The treatment itself was relaxing and rejuvenating. I felt a noticeable improvement in my condition after Dr. Stella also provided helpful advice.
Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Stella and Huatuo Clinic for anyone considering acupuncture. The combination of a knowledgeable practitioner, a soothing environment, and excellent patient care made for a truly positive experience.
Dr. Xin Xỉa was attentive. Looking forward to her assisting and fixing my chronic pains. Will be going for few more sessions.
Highly recommended
Thank you, Marco.
I recently visited Huatuo Clinic and had an exceptional experience with Dr. Marco Feng. I suffered a severe back injury during a soccer game, leaving me unable to move or breathe properly. Dr. Feng and his team acted swiftly, providing me with immediate care and relief. Within just one hour, I was able to talk, breathe, and walk without assistance. Their prompt attention and expertise truly saved my life. If you're ever in need of treatment for muscle or nerve injuries, I highly recommend this clinic.
(P.S. If you find this review helpful, please tell them Anna sent you. 😉
I recently had the pleasure of receiving acupuncture treatment from Dr. Stella Pun, and I cannot express how satisfied I am with the results. Dr. Pun is a true professional with a wealth of knowledge and a compassionate approach to healing.
From the moment I entered her clinic, I felt a sense of tranquility and warmth. The ambiance was soothing, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Dr. Pun herself exudes a calming presence, which immediately put me at ease.
During the consultation, Dr. Pun took the time to thoroughly understand my health concerns and history. Her attentiveness and genuine interest in my well-being made me feel heard and cared for. She explained the acupuncture process in detail, addressing any questions or concerns I had.
The acupuncture session itself was a remarkable experience. Dr. Pun's skill and precision were evident as she placed the needles with utmost care. Throughout the treatment, she ensured I was comfortable and relaxed, creating a serene environment that enhanced the therapeutic effects of the session.
I am delighted to report that the results were beyond my expectations. Dr. Pun's expertise and personalized approach truly made a difference in alleviating my symptoms and promoting overall wellness. I left the clinic feeling rejuvenated and with a renewed sense of balance.
If you are seeking a highly skilled and compassionate acupuncturist, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Stella Pun. Her dedication to her craft, coupled with her genuine concern for her patients, sets her apart as a standout healthcare professional. I am grateful for the positive impact she has had on my health and well-being. Thank you, Dr. Pun!
I had very bad back issuess over 30 years. It affected my daily life and sport activities. I could not even walk more than 20 minuts before. I had several times of acupuncture with moxibustion treatments for my back by doctor Li. He always provided one hour one-on-one treatment, which was so efficient and worked so well for my back. Since October 2024, my back pain has gone. Now I can walk few hours and play golf without my back pain. Thank you very much doctor Li.
Some of my friends are also very happy with his treatments to solve their health issues. He even treaated some cancer patients to help them reduce their pain. If you have any health issues I hightly recommend to seek treatment from doctor Yang Li.
Unexpectedly, I also came in with a kinked neck. Dr. Tran worked on that area as well, and I was relieved of the issue. I left feeling looser, more mobile, and overall just better. I highly recommend her if you're dealing with chronic tightness or simply need a reset. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back for further treatments.
Thank you!
After a thorough initial assessment, each session commences with a review of my own observations, and her check of indicators which she then considers for the specific treatment details of that day’s session.
Her professional conduct is impeccable, her approach is holistic, and goes well beyond treating symptoms. She thrives to understand and treat the root cause of issues, and then re-build the body’s energy and health.
I highly recommend Dr. Cathy Li and the team at the HUATUO Clinic.
Location: NW location has free parking, rooms are clean and relaxing atmosphere during appointments. Front desk is super helpful and friendly.

And also thank you to the receptionist, she is extremely patient and very welcoming.

Amanda, my acupuncturist, was nothing short of amazing. She was so professional, kind, and truly listened to my concerns. Her gentle, knowledgeable approach made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. She explained everything clearly, ensuring I felt informed and comfortable.
The clinic itself had such a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and I felt well-cared for from the moment I walked in. I highly recommend the Huatuo Clinic to any expecting moms looking for alternative treatments. Thank you, Amanda, for your expertise and kindness—you made such a difference in my pregnancy journey!
I have been coming to Huato Clinic for 5 months, and I see Dr. Helen for my focal seizures. I do not have the words to explain my gratitude and how much she has helped me. My seizures were so bad before i met her that i was having up to 8 a day on bad weeks, and they were causing my autonomic nervous system to fail (heart, lungs, kidney, digestion). She has brought my seizures down tremendously, and the seizures i do have are now minor and not as hard on my body. She has drastically changed my quality of life and has given me new hope. She is kind, knowledgeable, and a true healer. I trust her deeply with my condition and will continue to do treatment with her. The clinic is a warm and welcoming environment, and the staff are friendly. For reference, I am not on any pharmaceutical medication due to side effects, and I chose to take the path of natural medicine and lifestyle changes, I am happy I did!

Our Approach
Untreated pain can lead to various issues, including reduced mobility, loss of function, and increased risk of developing chronic pain. It can also contribute to the development or exacerbation of mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and insomnia.
At the Huatuo Clinic Pain Clinic, we recognize the connection between pain and mental health, as well as the potential consequences of untreated pain. Our comprehensive approach to pain management includes:
- In-depth consultations and assessments to understand your pain history, physical health, emotional well-being, and the impact of pain on your mental health.
- Addressing the psychological aspects of pain through counseling, stress management techniques, and mindfulness practices, fostering resilience and improved emotional well-being.
- Acupuncture treatments to balance the body’s energy (Qi), reduce inflammation, and promote natural pain relief.
- Herbal medicine to support the body’s healing processes and provide relief from pain symptoms.
- Nutritional and lifestyle counseling to help you make choices that support pain management, overall health, and mental well-being.
- Complementary therapies, such as massage and exercise, to improve mobility, strengthen the body, and reduce the risk of complications from untreated pain.
How Does It Work
Studies have suggested that acupuncture and other Traditional Chinese Medicine techniques can help alleviate pain and improve function in patients by:
- Reducing inflammation: Acupuncture may help decrease inflammation in the affected tendons and promote healing.
- Stimulating blood flow: By increasing blood circulation in the area, acupuncture can facilitate healing and reduce pain.
- Modulating pain perception: Acupuncture may help modulate the perception of pain by influencing the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals, and other neurotransmitters.
