Sally Chang, LAc, DNBAO

Sally has been taking care of my husband for years, and I have recommended her without reservation. A ruptured disc sent my husband to the hospital one year ago. Even though my family is well established in western medicine, we wanted to avoid any aggressive interventions that could leave him with worse problems. Sally is as intelligent, thorough, and experienced as they get. She has such a calm zen-​like disposition. In addition to helping him stabilize his medical situation (no need for narcotics, benzos, steroid injections, surgery!), she has helped alleviate the stress that is so enmeshed with physical pain. She doesn’t over-​prescribe or push for frequent treatments that make clients dependent on appointments with her. She is a truly caring competent healing practitioner. We are very glad she is in our community.

Sally is awesome! I’ve had acupuncture off and on from various practitioners, for various issues over the years, and Sally is by far the best I have found. She is truly top notch.
I had been suffering from chronic, work related, hand and arm pain for months. It was pretty severe and was keeping me awake at night. It had also begun interfering with my ability to do my job. I felt like I had tried everything and was beginning to resign myself to just pain management, without hope of actually getting better.
Sally recommended a schedule of twice weekly visits for 4 weeks. However, after only 1 treatment my pain was significantly reduced and I was sleeping through the night with no issues. After only 3 treatments my pain was completely gone! Now, I’m just on a maintenance plan to keep everything in check. Really amazing stuff.
Sally has a quiet and compassionate manner. She listens carefully and makes helpful suggestions that I can implement easily on a daily basis. She receives my very highest recommendation.

Sally Chang is an exceptional Acupuncturist and Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner. She is knowledgable, intuitive and kind and her compassionate approach inspires absolute trust in her treatment. I have nothing but high praise for Sally’s healing work and would highly recommend her to anyone interested in seeking a broad and holistic approach to their health.

I have been seeing Sally for two years, originally because of a very severe case of bronchitis/​pneumonia. She helped me restore my health and I have not had a recurrence of my previously twice a year bronchial infections since. She has an «old soul’s» intuition which partially comes from a four generation lineage of healers. She listens really well and sees the whole organism’s need for health and life.

My very top recommendations and respect go out for Sally Chang.
I first went to see Sally for help with chronic degenerative digestive issues. With acupuncture treatments, prescribed herbs and by following her lifestyle instructions my health has completely turned around. Sally also effectively treats my sports injuries — neck pain, frozen muscles, and numb extremities.
Sally asks questions and listens carefully. She is present, sensitive, perceptive and alert, with a gentle, compassionate, calming manner. Sally is also precise and direct — very clear and illustrative about dietary and lifestyle changes I need to make, leaves no room for me waver or wonder. When I do what Sally tells me to do, I feel better.
If you want to achieve radiant health, go to Sally Chang. She’s the pearl of San Anselmo. Sally also spreads healing by teaching an excellent taiji class on tuesday evenings. Check her website, I recommend the class and her acupuncture services to everyone.

I was new to the area and wanted to find a thorough and experienced acupuncturist for my thyroid issues. I met Sally and instantly knew I would be in good hands. She spends a good amount of time listening to your health concerns and does a complete history prior to her treatments. She is gentle, kind, knowledgeable (even about uncommon disease processes) and has the commitment and fortitude to further research challenging, uncommon symptoms. While Sally can of course handle regular, more common issues, her knowledge base is well established and I liked that she had several generations of acupuncturists in her family. Additionally, I liked that she didn’t just «treat» me superficially, but really tried to get to the heart of what was going on with my body, mind, heart and soul. She explains things thoroughly and has a very calming demeanor. Her integrity is palpable. I can’t say enough good things about her and give her my highest recommendation.

I am lucky to have found Sally Chang. I had never been treated with acupuncture before and was delighted by the results. Under Sally Chang’s care I experienced relief from severe pain from an auto accident injury. Sally Chang is patient and thorough during her treatments. She has a dignified, calm manner which is reassuring. I recommend her unreservedly.

I first saw Sally over a year ago and went regularly for a chronic neck and back problem I had been having for a long time. She was so patient and took a lot of care and time figuring out what would be the best approach to my problem. She is so thorough and I felt I was in such good hands. My appointments became less frequent as I improved. Now recently I went in for completely different problems, I went once just for «stress» and can honestly say I left in a completely different place and it lasted. I have now decided to give myself the gift of seeing Sally once or twice a month just because I know my body is so much healthier in her care… I recommend Sally very very highly.

I started seeing Sally last summer, after a diagnosis of cervical dysplasia, grade level 2. The dr. wanted to do a ‘minor’ surgery, but I asked for time to see if a change in my lifestyle would help. After a lot of research, I decided to try acupuncture. Sally did a complete assessment of my overall health and I began treatment twice a month coupled with Chinese herbs. When a hurt shoulder became chronic during this time, she treated that, too. A few months ago, I had the very beginnings of a cold and with acupuncture and the herbs, it was gone in 24 hours. She is very thorough and truly has a holistic approach. Six months later, I feel so much healthier. I am a teacher and I have not been sick once this year (I always get the flu and bronchitis… always), my shoulder is almost better and best of all, the grade 2 cells have disappeared and I don’t need surgery after all. I highly recommend seeing Sally for any health concern… she is wonderful!

Sally is unique. She spends a good amount of time questioning me to get to the bottom of my health issues. This resulted in her very effective treatments.
Been to many acupuncturists for treatment and Sally has helped so much! I HIGHLY recommend her as the acupuncturist of choice!

I have been to many Acupuncturists over the years — Sally is top notch!
Her treatment really helped me when I was under an extreme amount of stress and the herbs that she prescribed for me for some hormonal imbalances made a big difference right away.
Her acupuncture technique is gentle and her quiet confidence is wonderfully reassuring. I reccomend Sally highly.
