Report
I highly recommend this clinic! My husband had flu like symptoms during Covid19 outbreak. Our Dr. didn't take him in (they only took emergency cases due to lack of tests) This sickness was unlike any he had before. We went to Classic Acupuncture & got some Chinese herbs. He improved the next day & each day forth from multiple symptoms!! Ingrid went the extra-mile to check on him each day via phone & gave him tips for dosage & diet as well. She gave him personal attention where as our regular clinic didn't. Ingrid is sweet, calm, knowledgeable, & caring. I can't say enough good things about Classic

The treatment I received from this clinic was not effective at treating my illness. I have received effective healthcare from community acupuncture clinics in Minneapolis as well Lauderdale Wellness Center and RB Acupuncture.

I've been going to Classic Acupuncture 3 days a week for several months. Ingrid is very professional, compassionate and exceptional with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). I've suffered from chronic migraines for 30 years and have tried all preventive and pain relieving medications without relief. I also have 2 herniated disks and suffer daily with lower back pain. Since going to Classic Acupuncture, my migraine pain has been significantly reduced. From pain level 10/10 to 5/10 and less, the frequency has also been drastically reduced by approximately 50%. My migraine duration has also significantly

Report
After suffering for years with debilitating migraines, my neurologist told me I had three options for treating them: 1) A daily prescription; 2) Botox shots; or 3) Eastern acupuncture. I chose the latter. Classic Acupuncture came highly recommended by a co-worker. It has been about four years, and I am filled with gratitude every single day for Classic Acupuncture. I feel much better overall, and Classic Acupuncture has significantly helped me with my migraines. I always say, "If I had to choose one health care provider, it would be my acupuncturist." Thank you for all you've done to get me on
