My wife suffered a significant stroke ~2.5 years ago which has impacted her ability to walk, talk and communicate. This is the 3rd location Dea has had physical & occupational therapy. Dea's ability to walk in the last year, while being treated at Dr. Zhu's excellent staff, has improved significantly. They definitely have a "Can Do Attitude".
I have faith that overtime the acupuncture & physical therapy will also improve her talking and communicating skills. I highly recommend Zhu's Neuro-Acupuncture And Rehab Center.

"We came from BC Canada for my 18-yr-old daughter to get her scalp therapy following her brain injury and stroke. Erin enjoyed the humour and positive ways that the therapists pushed her and they had a lot of fun, tho it was hard work. I appreciated the great variety of tools and methods they used to help Erin get her hand and leg working again. We both enjoyed coming every day. Everyone was so nice and pleasant and I felt like we were all friends. We will miss all the people, but especially we will miss DeAnna, Richie, and Long.
We are grateful for all of the emotional support and encouragement we received. I thought Erin would be tired at the beginning until her stamina built up, but in fact she tired out after about two weeks of steady 2 hours a day treatment. I had planned to stay a month and we did stay a month but it may have been too long or too much. Erin has better use of her hand and fingers and is walking better without her crutch."

"We came all the way from India. We are glad to say that my 9 yrs. old daughter has shown a remarkable improvement in just 25 sessions. My daughter has right hemiplegia with moderate weakness on left side as well. She never held pen with her right hand which is now possible and is able to use her right hand moderately. Moreover she could keep her right ankle straight while walking, thanks to Zhu’s Team who combines best of both worlds (Acupuncture + Physio).
Undoubtedly Dr. Moyee is one of the best acupuncturist in the world, while physical therapist Long and Richard are “super heroes”. They know exactly how our muscles function to achieve the required motor skills.
We thank Deanna for her kind co-ordination. We also thank the whole team for their flexible appointments and offering us the best discounted rates.
Having seen the amount of improvement during our short stay, we dream to come back for a long stay to get complete cure."

"I considered myself very lucky when I found this clinic. I got Shingles in the beginning of March, Dr. Julia Kao treated me and within days, the Shingles subsided. I could imagine how awful the pain would be without the acupuncture treatment. Thank you, Dr. Kao!"

"I had Bells Palsy and I came here to Zhu’s Acupuncture after 2 weeks. Dr. Harry and Dr. Moyee really worked hard to cure my Bells Palsy and after 5 weeks I’m almost 100% recovered. Dr. Moyee suggested me to do more facial exercise daily.
I would recommend this Zhu’s Acupunture for Bells Palsy to cure very fast."

"I am a C6-7 quadriplegic. I went to Zhu's office for 2 weeks and feel that the treatment I received is well worth the time and money spent.
The therapists and exercise specialists are knowledgeable and do a good job of creating a rehab plan that caters to your needs."

"I have neurological pain, inflammation and swelling/chronic muscle pain in hands/wrists and feet/ankles, and have gone to multiple doctors in the last 3 1/2 years including acupuncture, with no results. Dr Siu is treating with attention to listening, taking careful notes, and patience in considering treatment plan, and although some of the joints are damaged by now (so still painful and won't heal overnight) the swelling is noticeably less after 3 treatments and I can close my hands now, and use my fingers better. My ankles are less swollen and I walk better. It's a long journey ahead but I'm very hopeful and grateful I found this place through a friend who is doing her PhD in acupuncture. It's also nice to walk in and get such a warm welcome from staff when you're struggling with health issues."

"Over Thanksgiving weekend my lower back went into acute spasm and I could barely walk. My 89 year old aunt had to help me get up from my chair. I felt crippled. I was lucky Zhu's Acupuncture Center had a cancellation and could take me right away.
At age 49, upon arrival at the clinic, it took me 5 minutes to get out of my car and stand upright. I hobbled into the clinic in excruciating pain. With utmost care and grace, Dr. Moyee diagnosed the issue, put needles into my head and lower back, and I walked out of the clinic feeling 95% better. It felt like a miracle. No pharmaceuticals. Only needles. I went back for one more follow up treatment, and I was better.
I give them my highest recommendation

"Dr. Zhu, my acupuncturist, has been a great teacher for me.... Up until then, I’d walked with the help of a cane and the support of a therapist—but he wanted me to do it all on my own. Walk all the way across that huge room? And with all those strangers watching me besides? But I thought, 'He's the doctor!' The strength of his determination got me up out of my chair, and I walked—tottering like a baby—across the room to where he stood.
Therapists and doctors believe it's their techniques that make the difference, but I've come to realize that it's much more than the power of their certainty that counts. It's their heart-to-heart resuscitation."

"After I had a hemorrhagic stroke at age 66 and was hospitalized for five weeks, I was offered the chance to try Zhu's Neuro-Acupuncture, administered by the wise and wonderful Dr. Julia Kao who had studied with Dr. Zhu. I had never heard of the technique before, but as I was quite disabled, having trouble with balance and especially with memory, I decided to try it. After ten sessions over eight weeks I was almost back to my pre-stroke mental and physical capabilities, far better than many of the patients I had seen in conventional western treatment facilities who were confined to wheelchairs or had ongoing issues that the medical community charitably calls "deficits." Dr. Julia and her magic needles and treatments unblocked my Chi and tremendously helped my recovery.
Having a near death experience quickly focuses one on what one wants to do and accomplish in whatever time remains. In the past 3 years since my stroke, I have worked on and published 21 art, photography and memoir books - None of that would have been possible without Dr. Zhu's techniques and the clear focus, direction and help that I received from Dr. Julia at Zhu's Neuro-Acupuncture."

"We have been bringing our son for Scalp Acupuncture treatments since September of 2006. He was diagnosed with Autism/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) at the age of four. He has low social awareness that is typical of those with autism, and also has difficulty focusing on learning tasks in school. He is fortunate enough to have an aide who helps him with his classroom work and goes to speech and socialization therapy. He also takes Ritalin to help him focus at school. With all these benefits, he has managed to keep up in school, and has proven that he can learn.
Nevertheless, since he has been receiving Scalp Acupuncture, he has made noticeable improvements in his concentration at school, has been showing higher levels of social awareness and self-expression, and has been working more independently when taking tests and doing homework. Emotionally speaking, he is handling adversity much better. Scalp Acupuncture has helped my father who suffered a stroke, and it is proving to be beneficial for my autistic son."

"I began having symptoms of menopause including heart palpitations, anxiety, difficulty sleeping and low energy. After seeing my primary MD, and a cardiologist to be cleared for any cardiac issues, I was hoping my OBGYN would have some guidance. I was handed 3 pages of photocopied material from a medical book to read. I felt I was on my own until I remembered I had referred several of my clients to Dr. Zhu and Moyee after they had suffered a stroke and Bell's Palsy and they raved about their improvement. I met with Moyee who was very encouraging about the benefits of acupuncture to help with symptoms of menopause. I have been thrilled with the results and feel so much more like myself after 4 treatments. My sleep is improved, my energy level is nearly back to baseline and my heart palpitations and anxiety have improved dramatically. I knew I did not want to take hormone replacements and the Western medical model had little more to offer. Moyee and scalp acupuncture have given me a much more optimistic outlook about getting through menopause in a healthy, happy way. I am deeply grateful and highly recommend Dr. Zhu's Neuro-Acupuncture Center."

"I have had Multiple Sclerosis since 2004 and had been becoming more and more debilitated as the years went by, mostly affecting my right leg and balance. I wore a brace on my right leg to help prevent foot drop and sometimes used a cane. Last May, a friend of ours whose son had been greatly helped by Dr. Zhu, suggested that I try scalp acupuncture. I was very skeptical that this could help someone in my situation but decided to give it a try. My first treatment with Dr. Zhu and his staff was nothing short of a miracle, he was able to re-establish the long dead pathway between my brain and right leg. Most people do not have instant results like this but pretty much everyone that I came in to contact with had some type of improvement. After a couple of back to back treatments, I went once a week for a couple of months, this knocked about 80% of the MS symptoms out of me, since last May, I have not used a cane or foot brace. Because I would usually go on the same day of every week, I would see a lot of the same people steadily improving along with me. You do have to earn your recovery, there is work involved but the results are so worth it, I feel like I got my life back. Thank you Dr. Zhu and your wonderful staff."

"My dad had a significant stroke in January 2016 and I used Dr Zhu's clinic to help him get back on his feet, walking and talking again. They are so much better than a standard medical professionals where they don't combine PT with the head acupuncture. We believe the use of this combination was the key to success of my father's nearly full recovery 4 months and 10 visits after getting out of the hospital. They are very good about caring for their patients. If you have a similar situation, I highly recommend using Dr Zhu and his team to get faster results as soon as you can. Their techniques work!"

Excellent! The staff is very attentive to my specific needs. I have a very rare progressive neurological disease, multiple system atrophy, for which Western medicine has no treatment or cure. Moyee Siu is not only familiar with this devastating disease, she has a first-hand perspective on possible treatments for symptom relief. With doctor after doctor shrugging their shoulders and having nothing to offer but a dismal prognosis, it's been a life saver being in her healing hands!""

Dear Dr. Moyee,
I want to tell you how deeply grateful I am for all your help. I have not done this earlier because I have been extremely busy catching up with all the tasks that I did not do while I could not see well. Now I am feeling so well. My hemianopsia has nearly disappeared. Unless I make an effort to find the area of blindness, I do not know it exists. It has been shrinking as you predicted. And in general I feel very very well. I made a video for you with Animoto as my endless gratitude for restoring my sight. With gratitude and affection,
