I lived with facial paralysis for 10 years after a stroke—every specialist said it was permanent. Dr. Ma saw possibilities where others saw limitations. Through her patient, specialized treatment, I can smile at my grandchildren again.

After a C-section complication left me unable to move one of my feet, I thought I'd never walk normally again. Dr. Ma gave me hope with her 3-month treatment plan using Fu Needle and Jia Needle techniques, combined with personalized herbal medicine. She also taught me rehabilitation exercises that I could do at home. Thanks to her comprehensive approach, I'm walking again.

My daughter had severe allergies that were preventing her from getting proper nutrition—she was so restricted in what she could eat. Dr. Ma not only helped heal the allergies with her herbal medicine, but she has this incredible way with kids. She would make little masks and games during treatment, talking with my daughter like they were old friends. Now my little one actually looks forward to her appointments, and she's finally eating a full range of foods again.

Mother of Two
I was totally skeptical about acupuncture, but honestly, I'd tried everything for my knees. This pain had been going on forever. My climbing coach finally convinced me to give it a shot. What really got me was that Dr. Ma never made me feel weird about my lifestyle or told me to stop climbing. She just worked around my crazy training schedule and actually got my pain under control.

I met Dr. Ma on a Mediterranean cruise ship during my vacation. I have this rare nerve disease where temperature changes trigger intense pain, for 30 years. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from the spa acupuncturist on a cruise ship. What a surprised! Somehow she managed to treat this condition that had stumped doctors for decades, just with acupuncture. I'm still amazed and so grateful.

Cruise Passenger
We drive 3 hours just to see Dr. Ma, but it's so worth it. Whenever we're in the city, we make it a family day: me, my husband, my sister, and my dad all get appointments. We've been seeing her for 4 years now, even followed her from her old clinic. She's kept charging us the same rates even though I know her prices have gone up. Honestly, she feels more like family than just our acupuncturist at this point.

Most patients find acupuncture deeply relaxing. The needles are hair-thin, and insertion is typically painless. You might feel a slight sensation, but it shouldn't be uncomfortable.
Every puzzle is unique. Some patients see improvement after one session, while others benefit from a series. I'll create a realistic treatment plan based on your specific condition and goals.
We do not accept insurance. However, I can provide you with a “super bill” that has all the correct codes, which you may be able to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement depending on your policy. Please call your insurance provider to see if you have out-of-network coverage for acupuncture.
Absolutely. I work collaboratively with your existing healthcare team and will never ask you to stop treatments prescribed by other providers.
