Acupuncture in Palo Alto

“Wow! I echo all of the sentiments from the other reviews. This is a tranquil and relaxing experience and AJ knows his stuff! My lower back already feels better after just one session.“

“Alicia is such a gem. I went to see about 10 acupuncturists before finding her and have now been seeing her over a year, through may different health challenges and experiences, and she always helps me find resolution. My sessions with her are profoundly relaxing, I consistently find pain relief for various injuries, and I got pregnant swiftly after years of chronic illness through my care with her. I also really appreciate her added background as a functional medicine practitioner and her expertise in manual therapy. She listens very attentively and I always feel that she deeply cares about helping me feel better. In times when I see her a bit less consistently, she always checks in with me via messaging. I'm so grateful to have found her on my health journey!“

“I am a lawyer at a tech company that manages a lot of stress (close deals worth billions), and I was looking for an accu that can help manage my lifestyle. I have stress and issues sleeping the entire night.

If you come across this place consider yourself truly blessed. I have seen more than a dozen accus throughout my life due to being in different job locations and know when someone is talented. Yaping Chen is so amazing. In one month working with her, my anxiety is barely there (it doesn't surface through the entire day) and I can sleep through the nights with no issue.

Yaping has this unique, unworldly way of working with people. Her heart is completely in her work, and she cares so much about her patients. She intuitively knows where blocks are in your body w/o you having to say much, and uses CranioSacral Therapy as a healing technique (that not many people know). Each accu session has brought so much joy.“

“Dr. Weiss cured me of debilitating migraine headaches. I had been taking very strong medicines since I was 15, and never imagined acupuncture could help. I went to see him because of tendinitis in my hands. I was in my mid 30's by then. He always asked me about my health in general, and one day I told him my medication had been discontinued and the new one they prescribed did not work. That's when he offered to try acupuncture. I laughed at him, but trusted his skills and gave it a try. I remember Dr. Weiss every day of my life!! I sometimes get headaches (any pain killer will work for it,) but I have not had a migraine in 20+ years. Thank you Dr. Weiss!!“

“i’ve gotten a swedish massage with both janeel and patricia and both times were great!! they are friendly, professional, and very skilled!“

“Dr. Torrens is amazing! I love having a doctor who truly listens to my concerns, takes the time to answer all of my questions, and is clearly invested in my health. Her passion for naturopathic medicine and willingness to dive deep into the root of my issues have made a significant difference in my wellbeing, and I feel safe and assured in her care. I would recommend her to anyone in the Bay Area!“

“They did a good job- however what I had done probably wasn't what I needed- not their fault. Tech was very knowledgeable and concerned about me and how I felt.“

“From the moment I walked into Blue Danube Spa, I felt like I was stepping into a sanctuary of peace and care. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and beautifully designed to immediately put you at ease. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles and made me feel like more than just a customer, they treated me like family.

My massage was nothing short of transformative. The therapist was incredibly attentive, asking about my needs and tailoring the session perfectly. Every touch felt thoughtful and professional, and I left feeling lighter, looser, and deeply relaxed, like a huge weight had been lifted off both my body and mind.

What sets Blue Danube apart is their attention to detail. From the calming music to the perfectly heated massage tables, to the little touches of aromatherapy and herbal tea afterwards, every element is designed to create the most soothing experience possible. It’s clear the team here truly cares about their clients’ well-being.

I’ve been to many spas, but Blue Danube Spa is on a completely different level. It’s not just a treatment, it’s a whole experience that stays with you long after you leave. I can’t recommend this place highly enough. If you’re looking for a place to recharge, heal, and feel completely taken care of, Blue Danube Spa is the absolute best.“
