“I started seeing Dr. Jenny Nieters in June 2024 and she has helped me tremendously. I was a soccer goalkeeper at the University of Southern California and she has seen me through multiple injuries. For about a year, I struggled to understand what was going on with my adductors. Without relying on any scans/imaging—and based solely on working on me over a period of time—Dr. Nieters suspected that my adductors weren't fully attached. She recommended that I travel to Philadelphia to visit Vincera Institute, a specialized core clinic, for further imaging.

Through that process, I learned that both my adductors and my rectus abdominis were not fully attached, and that I would need a combined hip and core surgery. If it weren't for Dr. Nieters, I would have only undergone hip surgery and would not have discovered the full extent of my physical situation for a long time.

I had surgery in September 2025 and am currently working hard at rehab. Thanks to Dr. Nieters, I now have a real chance to get back on the field. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also one of the kindest, and most genuinely caring people I've ever met. She has a true gift for what she does. I always leave our sessions feeling better—not just physically, but mentally as well. I wholeheartedly recommend anyone to see her!!“

“If you're looking for the best acupuncturist on the island, look no further than Tracy from Island Acupuncture! Seriously, she's a gem and I can't recommend her enough. From the moment you walk into her clean and comfortable facility, you know you're in good hands. There's ample parking, which is always a plus.

Tracy is incredibly knowledgeable and empathetic. She truly takes the time to listen intently to your health concerns before crafting a personalized treatment plan. You never feel rushed, and it's clear she genuinely cares about your well-being. During your session, she goes above and beyond to make you comfortable, offering a blanket, heat lamp, and soothing music.

Her flexibility with appointments is fantastic, though her schedule does fill up quickly – a testament to how amazing she is! I once had a really severe case of vertigo, and Tracy was able to diagnose and provide immediate relief, which was truly remarkable. I've never encountered a service provider who is as caring and attentive, especially when you're not feeling your best. She even allows patients to text her with questions anytime and is always quick to respond. The level of care she provides feels more like a close friend or family member, and that's something truly special.

I'm incredibly grateful to have found Tracy and Island Acupuncture. If you're seeking an acupuncturist who is not only highly skilled but also deeply compassionate, Tracy is absolutely the one to see.“

“Dr. Dao is incredible and truly cares about her patients. She goes far beyond surface-level treatment to get to the root cause, exploring avenues I didn’t even know existed. She’s extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely listens. It means so much to have a doctor who can relate and take the time to understand how everything connects. I’m incredibly grateful to have found her and highly recommend Dr. Dao to anyone who feels something may be off with their health, she will get to the bottom of it with real care and support.“

“Dr. Amenti is the best! Not only is she one of the kindest humans on the planet but she also has a Master's in Acupuncture. Her specialty is pain management. She has helped me to heal a multitude of ailments quickly. That's why I keep coming back and referring her to all of my friends! They let me know with huge smiles on their faces, how great their experience was as well. Highly recommend this wise woman.“

“I have had a great ongoing experience with Annsheng Chinese Medicine. From the dr. To the assistants; everyone is personable and friendly. The quality of service is by far some of the best I have received. I do have a certification from Berkely Acupressure Institute; which even though it doesn't allow me to work with needles, it does give me a background in the premise of Acupuncture. I can say in all honesty, that my sessions have been great. I would recommend the Dr. and her assistants as the place to go if you are seeking healthy solutions for Chinese medicine.“

“Grace is an amazing acupuncturist and healer. She tunes into the spirit, body and mind of the client. She desires healing for the whole person. She has wonderful bedside manner while doing this work which helps you to surrender to the treatment she is offering. I have been seeing her for 3+ months and have relieved of pain, inflammation and trauma in the body. I highly recommend her and the services she provides. I am sure you will appreciate her as well.“

“I had an injury on my left foot that was making running or even walking fast difficult. Also I had chronic injuries/pains resulting from training for long-distance triathlons (Ironman; an 140.6 miles race) on my right shoulder and the right side of my back. Tina’s treatment has been amazing! To the point that she has earned a nickname in my household - “the Magician with Needles”!Details of my condition: (1) Injury: something dropped on my left foot. As it happened right after my Ironman World Championship race, I did not care - I was not doing much of my training. I thought that the pain would disappear by itself. Then months passed, and the pain persisted. Moreover, I realized that the NERVES on my left foot are a LITTLE NUMB. So, when I tried to run a higher mileage at my tempo pace, my left foot was less responsive after a 6-7 miles. Also, TAKING STEPS the following few days were quite difficult.(2) Chronic pain: I almost entirely breathe on one side while swimming, especially if I am doing long difficult sessions. Also, when I am holding the aero position on my time-trial bike, I inadvertently tighten one side of my upper body - this becomes especially true if I am doing hard intervals and/or doing >2-3 hours of training. Consequence: chronic dull pain on my shoulder and my back. This results in debilitating pain during later phases of a race. This was seriously hampering my sleep after long rides (which is bread-and-butter for Ironman trainings).Treatment: I had gone through extensive acupuncture treatments before the pandemic for chronic pains - thanks to my health insurance! They worked, but the results were not even close to Tina’s treatments. I went to Tina, in the beginning of Dec, 2022. After three sessions, my foot injury was completely solved! In fact, after the very first session, I was incredulous with the results! The same goes for the chronic pain on my shoulder - that I have been living with for several years now. That too was gone! I was very confident that as I start doing “red mist swim sessions” in new years, the shoulder pain would come back - it kind of did, but only to 10-20% intensity compared to what it used to be. And that was relieved after one session with Tina in Jan, 2023. Now, she has started working on the chronic pain on my right lower back - and I am experiencing her magic already.In summary, my condition was a sudden injury and one from muscle overuses from sports. Tina’s acupuncture treatment resolved both issues unbelievably well (better than physios and sports massages).“

“I highly recommend Heavenly Stems Acupuncture. Melissa, the owner, is a very knowledgeable and caring acupuncturist. First, she asked me thorough questions to get a deep understanding of what my ailments were and what I needed. During the treatment, she explained each step that she was taking and made sure I was ok with it. This put me at ease and made me feel safe. I appreciated how she asked me first if she could twist the needles a bit to pull the qi (energy) before doing it. She said there could be a pulling sensation. I agreed to it so there were no surprises. Even though I could feel the twists, she was very gentle. In community clinics that I had gone to before, the needles hurt sometimes, but this didn't hurt at all. It was quite relaxing and she gave me a choice of being in the quiet or listening to music. I came out of it quite relaxed, but I definitely felt it was working.

Melissa deeply cares about her work. She's a very dedicated and skilled acupuncturist. She accepts some insurance and there is free parking in the back. I would recommend her to everyone I know.“

“Jane is the best and really good at what she does. I've been having neck and fertility issues and she was able to address it all. I've been to several acupuncturists and she is the real deal.“

“I was in bad shape with a chronic neck problem and I called Dr Lam's office. He said I could come right away. He performed Acupuncture magic on me and that night was the first night I was able to sleep in a week! Highly Recommended.“
