Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use fine needles to stimulate meridian pathways and restore Qi flow. This ancient technique alleviates chronic pain, reduces inflammation, and promotes natural healing by addressing energetic imbalances. Patients experience immediate relief through our integration of Dr. Tan's Balance Method and Japanese palpation techniques.
Herbal Prescriptions
Custom herbal formulas target specific health conditions using traditional Chinese medicine principles. These natural remedies complement acupuncture by addressing internal imbalances, supporting digestive health, and regulating hormonal functions. Each prescription is tailored to individual patient needs and constitutional patterns.
Posture Correction
This service combines acupuncture with myofascial release to correct postural imbalances. By identifying and releasing tissue constriction points, we restore natural body mechanics and prevent recurring musculoskeletal pain. Patients receive personalized stretching guidance to maintain proper alignment between sessions.
Pain Management
Specialized treatments address chronic pain conditions through targeted meridian stimulation and tissue release techniques. Our approach provides immediate symptom relief while addressing underlying causes like nerve compression and muscular tension. Patients report significant improvement in mobility and comfort after initial sessions.
Stress Relief
Acupuncture protocols designed to regulate stress response and improve emotional well-being. By balancing autonomic nervous system function, this treatment reduces anxiety symptoms, improves sleep quality, and enhances overall mental clarity through natural, non-invasive methods.

I started going to Masayuki for various challenges - both physically and mentally. The pandemic has been incredibly tough for a lot of us and it really took a toll on my body and spirit. I am happy to report that after nearly 2 months of regular sessions, I am feeling like me again. Masayuki is incredibly thorough and detailed. I never feel rushed and he always gives a 100% of his attention (unlike other places that bounce around between multiple patients). Pricing is very reasonable and competitive as well. His incredible dedication and commitment to his patients is nothing Ive seen in other

For the past 6+ months I have come to Masa to help with a knee injury. After visiting a specialist they mentioned a good next course of action would be for me to receive an injection to help me manage the pain. I was not keen on this approach and remain quite grateful that I came to see Masa. He really helped me get back on my feet.

I highly recommend Masa! I had sprained wrist for over a year and was not healing. After few treatments, my wrist was fully recovered! Amazing! I continued to go for other issues and after each session, I feel so much better! With his massage, my back pain and other body pain has improved. So on point!
Ive been to so many acupuncturists and hes the only one I feel significantly better after each session. He is very thought and knowledgeable. And really listens to you. I already referred to few of my friends and theyre all happy feeling better!! Thank you Masa!!

Dr. Adachi is one of the rare doctors. He confronts your health problems and tries his very best to solve them. Just try his treatment a couple of times before you give up. With his vast knowledge of acupuncture and herbal medicine, my overall health condition becomes far better than I initially expected. He sees your problem holistically as well as regionally, because often the area where it pains is not where you are supposed to deal with. Just tell him every detail of your problems and trust him. I strongly recommend him.

I discovered Masa 4 months ago after experiencing an apparently sudden deep upper back pain, which difficulted basic day to day movement and even breathing. Masa took the time to make a thorough assessment. I was immediately put at ease by his patience and reassurance and was later blown away by his approach using Dr. Tan's Balance Method and TCM. Masa also understands the connection between emotions and physical pain and how muscles operate and relate to one another. I have been to many other acupuncturists before but none like him!
