Our acupuncture treatments use precise needle placement at specific points to stimulate healing responses. This technique effectively addresses chronic pain, migraines, and stress-related conditions by promoting natural pain relief and improving circulation. Patients benefit from customized treatment plans that integrate traditional Chinese medicine principles with modern medical understanding.

Lorena is a magician! She has super healing powers. I see her as my "therapist" for overall mental and physical well being and healing. She really has an intuition and can heal from the inside out. Lorena is a must try for anyone looking for acupuncture to heal past trauma, addiction, mental clarity, sleep and also physical muscle issues.

Dr. Lee is a master at relieving pain, ailments or in my case, lowering high blood pressure to normal levels. My GP wanted to put me on high blood pressure medicine so I turned to Eastern medicine and couldn't be happier. My BP now 121 over 83. Great for someone with hypertension for years. A steady regimen of exercise and acupuncture did it in just over a month. I highly highly recommend Dr. Lee, She is truly amazing!!!

Dr. Lorena Lee is AMAZING! I have completed about 6 sessions with her! My very first session I had a huge emotional release and cried my eyes out. Every time I leave Dr. Lee I leave improved, relaxed, and relieved. The sessions have mostly helped me release so many emotions trapped in my body and has helped me have bowel movements. I cannot express how much I love Dr. Lee! Also the studio is super clean and cute and puts you in the vibe of relaxation. Sandy who works the front desk is so so amazingly kind and great at her job. Book with Dr. Lee especially if you are new to acupuncture and interested

I came to the doctors office after experiencing two decades of back pain. My life had become dark and painful, and I felt much older than my 57 years of age. I had tried chiro and massage with mixed and ephemeral results. I had never tried acupuncture. I needed relief so I googled for a doctor near me. This was the beginning of my recovery! My injuries had gotten to the point where my muscles were no longer working in concert, in fact some of the muscles in my leg and back were not firing at all causing stress on my hip resulting in a lot of pain. After only one session I noticed obvious improvement

I have been going to Dr Lee for insomnia throughout the years. When I cant sleep, she is the first person I call. She is always improving her methods with advanced certifications and training so that she can offer her patients cutting edge treatments. Because she takes a holistic approach to the mind and body, she has taught me Foundation Training techniques and breathing exercises for better circulation and posture. As an added bonus, Dr. Lees patients become part of her extended family.

Dr. Lorena Lee is AMAZING. Her office is very clean and relaxing.I went to her with some back pain and after 2 weeks I am pain free. She is very nice and brings a GOOD vibe into your practice. She is very knowledgeable about acupuncture and she sells lots of healthy creams and vitamins. I would give here 10 stars if I could.

Ive had knee pain for about 2 years now after being hit by a car and thought the pain in my knees and hip were irreversible. I cannot stress how much Dr Lorena lee has helped. She is not an acupuncturist inside a yoga studio she is a true master of her practice, who uses multiple approaches (acupuncture, cupping) stemming from her vast knowledge of various forms of acupuncture to help alleviate tension and pain enough for me to continue on my rehab journey. She is the real deal and her calm demeanor and attentiveness are really hard to find and truly appreciated!
