Dr. Minchun Chen is the most amazing Acupuncturist you will ever meet. Not only is she an excellent provider, but she has a wonderful, caring, sweet personality as well! Today I woke up with my heart racing which caused so much anxiety. I had started a new medication that may be the culprit. My heart rate was about 112. After Dr. Minchun Chen performed her magic, my heart rate went down to the low 80's. She offered such encouraging words, which I really needed at that moment. For the rest of the night I have had a normal heart rate, I feel relaxed and calm. Better yet, my jaw pain is gone as well! I highly recommend her!

Dr. Chen is absolutely incredible. She is my third acupuncture therapist and the best one out of them. She treated me for severe sciatica and I felt the difference right away. Before coming to Dr. Chen I couldn’t sit, lay or stand, all I did was pacing in agony from one room to another. After 2 weeks of treatment I can finally sleep, work and drive with no problem at all. If you haven’t tried acupuncture just yet, you will be absolutely amazed. It truly works, and Dr. Chen hands down is one of the best acupuncture therapists in the area.

Dr. Chen is amazing! She takes time to understand your needs and you can tell she really cares about helping people. She helped me navigate dealing with my insurance company. I have had a pinched nerve in my neck so long, I can’t remember what it felt like before. After my first visit, I had noticeable relief and I slept better that night. I’m excited to continue the treatments and see what else Dr. Chen can fix.

Dr. Chen healed me from a horrible back ache in just one session. Also she healed me successfully from insomnia. After the treatment I slept soundly that night. The following nights I did wake up, but could easily go back to sleep. Thank you, Dr. Chen!

Dr.Chen is nothing short of incredible! She really cares about her patients and spends the time to really assess what’s happening physically, emotionally and mentally. I always walk out the door feeling so much better than how I was feeling when I entered. I leave with a lightness of spirit and a deep inner peace. My job is a very stressful one and I go to re-balance my body, mind and spirit. For those who have issues with needles, most of the time I don’t even feel them! And if I do it’s a quick pinch and it subsides immediately. I highly recommend Dr.Chen. Give it a try! You’ll be happy that you did!

Dr. Chen is incredible in her practice! Within moments, my pain and ailments are GONE, not just fixed for a bit. Dr. Chen has also been able to treat my diabetes & the amount of insulin I need has decreased dramatically! Dr. Chen truly focuses on whole body health, not just one achy part!

My daughter has cyclic vomiting syndrome, severe migraines, acid reflux, and functional dyspepsia. She has been hospitalized 35 times for severe vomiting and dehydration. She has been on a variety of medicines, including Zofran, Excedrin Migraine, Topamax, Reglan, Lanzoprazol, Ranitidine, Etc., to help her migraines and vomiting. Her migraines and nausea still broke through the medications.

When she was suffering with a migraine for a week and a half, I decided to take her to Dr. Chen for acupuncture as a last resort. I wish it had been the first stop in my daughter’s treatment. Within an hour, Dr. Chen got rid of her migraine. She also got rid of her nausea and acid reflux. She brought a smile to my daughter’s face. A smile that I hadn’t seen in months due to the constant pain she was in from her acid reflux. Dr. Chen is a lifesaver!!! I would highly recommend her to anyone. Not only is she an acupuncturist, she is also an internist, so she can evaluate the patient as a whole.

Some people may complain about the cost of acupuncture, but it costs less than spending three months in the hospital or ten years of medications. To see my daughter smile again was priceless! Thank you Dr. Chen!
