I have been few times due to my knee pain and arthritis on my finger.
It works well even though it cost per visit cost $70.
Personally recommend you should try acupuncture if you are so painful on your body

My teen & I call him the wizard, because the man does magic! Dr. Gu kept my mom off dialysis for years, cured my aunt's bells palsy when her dr failed, treats my son's adhd better that meds, helped me with any issue i've ever had for the past 25 years (asthma, sciatica, grief, ankle swelling, weight, high bp, anxiety, lock jaw from a botched dental procedure). I always see improvement within 1-2 days, & for adhd we see improvement the same day with my teen. The tea better than it was back in the day, because it's in powder packets now. Yes, sometimes the acupuncture has hurt a bit but it hurt less than whatever he it treating me for & it's only been when he's had to do a deeper treatment. Don't sleep on Dr. Gu. Your health is worth every penny and it's cheaper than letting md's experiment on u while they try this & that drug bc they really don't know what's wrong anyway. Just saying.

I suffer from sciatica due to a lumbar bulging disc and have tried PT elsewhere and acupuncture with Dr. Gu! His treatment has been miraculous and very effective. I returned twice for treatment when my sciatica flared up after restarting dancing. His treatments have resulted much more effective than PT for me. I’ve also had massage therapy there, which was incredible! Would highly recommend Dr. Gu and the clinic massage services. He has also accommodated me last minute on several occasions when I’ve been in so much pain and left almost pain free. Deeply thankful.

I've had acupuncture in the past but never had results from other places. Dr. Gu was only there one of my four day treatment and he help me get started. I came in on day 1 unable to walk nor stand straight. I went 4 days in a row due to living out of town. He started on day 1 and a female Dr worked on me the remaining 3 days. Everyday felt better and better and I am actually pain free. What amazes me is, I've tried acupuncture multiple places and it never worked. But Dr. Gu literally told me it would take about 4 treatments, so It was my last hope and it cured me. I hope to find the female Dr.'s name somewhere because she was also amazing. Would come back here when I'm in town

I didn’t like the bedside manner of this place and was bleeding from 3 acupuncture needles which left me a little disregulated after my session. Price was $70 which felt like a lot for a 30 minute session.

Dr. GU is AAAAAAAAAH-MAAAAZING, I suffered from intense migraines for over 35 years, I was hospitalized for days at a time countless times being pumped full of pain killers that made me vomit, but the headache would go after a few days, I went one day at the start of a migraine to see Dr. Gu and within an hour I felt better, I saw him for a few months once a month and I have not had a migraine since, yes 35 years of migraines and a few months with Dr. Gu and years later not one single migraine that was a few years ago.

Now I just started seeing him again for tennis elbow and just the first session felt 80% better, I'm going back again in a week.

I highly recommend Dr. Gu
