Pain Relief Treatment
Our acupuncture therapy targets chronic pain conditions like arthritis, sciatica, and back pain through precise needle placement that stimulates natural painkillers. Patients experience immediate relief with long-term benefits as treatment addresses root causes rather than masking symptoms. This non-invasive approach offers a safe alternative to medication with no side effects.
Addiction Treatment Program
Specialized acupuncture protocol eliminates nicotine, alcohol, and drug cravings in a single 45-minute session. Developed over 40 years of clinical practice, this method prevents withdrawal symptoms while achieving permanent cessation with 100% success rates in group treatments. Follow-up sessions are provided free of charge for optimal results.
Weight Loss Treatment
Acupuncture sessions reduce appetite and food cravings while improving metabolic efficiency. Patients experience diminished sweet cravings and increased satiety from smaller portions. Weekly treatments during the initial phase create sustainable lifestyle changes without restrictive dieting or exercise programs.
Allergy Relief
Targeted acupuncture addresses allergic reactions by regulating immune system responses to environmental triggers. Patients report reduced reliance on medication with lasting relief from symptoms like sneezing, congestion, and itchy eyes through a series of strategically placed needle treatments.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
Non-surgical facial acupuncture improves skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles by stimulating collagen production. This natural alternative to Botox tightens sagging skin and enhances facial tone through micro-needling techniques that promote cellular regeneration and circulation.

I have been a patient since 1985. Dr. Ling has kept me from having back surgery. My wife would have to help me walk in and an hour of treatment I could walkout on my own. I was able to not only carry on playing golf, Soft ball and horseback riding but a normal life. Thanks to Dr. Ling and his wife for their constant care. I just saw him on a muscle pull that the pain Prevented me from driving. I was able to drive home from the appointment.

Dr Ling helped me quit smoking and at times I was a 3-pack a day smoker. One hour and I was smoke free. That was in 2001. I have since told everyone I know and strangers about him and how marvelous he is. My x-husband, my best friend, my brother in law and sister have all quit smoking thanks to you, Dr Ling. You even drove my sister to the airport when her cab failed to arrive on time. You do it from the heart and in this crazy world you are a rare find. God bless you always and thank you for helping me, and I know it was you who gave me more years with my family.

I went to Dr. Ling for a problem with pain in my ankle. This had been going on for 3 months. I visited my primary care doctor, a neurologist, vascular, orthopedic and pain doctors. Had X-rays, MRI, EMC tests all doctors had no answer as to what was wrong except take medication. Dr. Ling said he would get rid of my pain in 3 or 4 visits. After 3 visits I have no more pain, why couldn't 5 doctors figure it out. If you have pain of any sort go see Dr. Ling if you don't live with your pain.

I went to Peking Acupuncture Clinic when I lived in Houston Texas. I was extremely pleased with their incomparable service. Since I have moved, it has been very difficult to find acupuncturists of such high caliber.

Drs. Ling are phenomenal people. My wife and I have been coming to them for issues that we have had with our health. They have provided help to clear our pains, mental stress and other problems. Their treatment lasts and works making our bodies heal themselves and adding to improving our life quality significantly. We believe in acupuncture, but believe even better when Drs. Ling do the treatment, because they truly want to help as many people as possible
