Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture stimulates specific body points to balance energy flow, effectively managing pain, stress, and chronic conditions. This noninvasive technique triggers natural painkillers through endorphin release, supported by WHO recognition and Cornell University research. It addresses ankle, foot, hand, and joint pain while improving overall wellness without pharmaceuticals.
Fertility Enhancement
Our fertility program combines acupuncture and herbal medicine to address hormonal imbalances and improve reproductive function. Treatments enhance IVF success rates by promoting blood flow, embryo protection, and hormone regulation. Two-phase therapy includes preparation for causation treatment and integrative support during fertility procedures, offering drug-free solutions for both male and female infertility factors.
Weight Management
This TCM-based program boosts metabolism through acupuncture, herbal formulas, and dietary guidance. Clinical trials show average 12-pound monthly loss using auricular acupuncture combined with personalized exercise plans. The five-step approach targets underlying causes of weight gain while avoiding restrictive diets or medications, promoting sustainable long-term health improvements.
Facial Rejuvenation
Facial acupuncture increases blood flow and collagen production to reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture. Combined with herbal treatments and customized skincare, this noninvasive method addresses aging and acne by balancing internal energy while enhancing natural beauty. Sessions improve muscle tone and nutrient delivery for lasting youthful appearance without cosmetic procedures.

Our cancer prevention program strengthens immunity through acupuncture, herbal therapy, and medical Qi Gong.

Report
When I walked into the acupuncture room, my first impression of the room was fresh, clean, and organized. Overall, the room had such healing energy. Nurses Zina and Wint, always with radiant smiles, attend every single patient with such care and love at the clinic. Dr. Cathryn Hu is a wonderful, skillful, and caring doctor. Her moral and spiritual beliefs are admirable and respectful. Indeed, Dr. Hu is a "Miracle Doctor." From the bottom of my heart, I really appreciate everything Dr. Hu has done for her patients. Sincerely, Grace Teng
