Dragon Acupuncture & Herb Center Inc.

Getting poked by needles is no fun. But Dr Zhao makes it as pleasant as possible. I came here because I was fed up with going from doctor to doctor, being diagnosed differently each time, and given pills which wouldn’t even fix the problem. Dr. Zhao really understands the human body well, on a level I can’t even explain. Her treatment is like a healing process, not a quick fix where the doctor looks at you for few minutes and writes a prescription. In less than 3 months, she was able to fix my problems.

Amazing results! Went in with major hot flashes and moodiness everything cleared up in less than 2 weeks this is a godsend. Thank goodness my family was ready to give me the boot. I have told all my girlfriends that this is the way to go when menopause comes into the picture.

I’ve been coming here for years for various problems. I’m someone who almost went to Accupuncture school so the first thing I look for is someone who is not trained in the in the United States. there is a huge difference between an acupuncturist train in Asia and one trained in the United States. The doctors here are trained in Asia and they really know their stuff I’ve had headaches treated among other things and they are great at it highly recommended

I love this place. At first I was skeptical, but now I’m a true believer. Dr. Zhao is truly wonderful. She explains everything and expertly places the needles. I have tinnitus, ringing in the ears and impossible to get rid of. Dr Zhao has really helped me by reducing its intensity and harshness by over 50% so far. I’ve even had days with a 60 to 90% reduction. This has had a tremendously positive impact on my life. If you have tinnitus you know what I mean. Additionally, Marina, who handles the administrative duties, is a wiz with insurance and scheduling. I highly recommend Dragon and would give them 6 stars if Unilocal allowed it.

Dr Zhou is the best! Whenever I am having issues with sleeping, stress or running injuries I go to Dragon Acupuncture. I honestly cannot say enough about her as a Doctor and her professionalism.

I am new to accupuncture and chose this office based on the positive reviews. I was going through the IVF process and read that accupuncture can improve implantation. I went once to try it before my transfer procedure. It was very relaxing. I went again directly after my procedure and I ended up getting pregnant. Not saying it’s only because of accupuncture but I believe it helped. They are fast and professional and will answer any questions. I will continue to came here throughout my pregnancy as well. I also love that I can send a text to schedule my appointment!

I’ve moved to San diego now and have not found a new acupuncturist. So, I travel to Dr. Zhao at her other office in Irvine. It’s an hour away but it’s worth it.

ACUPUNCTURE GIVES INSTANT RESULT
The first time I went for treatment it felt like magic. My back pain & below the right rib pain went away. Dr Huifang Zhao and Dr Fanjie Meng are brilliant and amazing.
I have been suffering from back pain, sinus allergy, insomonia, depression and into my menopause. With the combination of acupuncture & herb I am feeling so much better.
For the past 4 sessions they incorporated acupuncture face lift. OMG I am so amazed with the result. The overall texture and brightness of my face has improved. The deep lines around my mouth and in between my eyebrows are gone. I am 52 years old.
Marina the secretary is super nice, accomodating & very helpful. She makes me feel welcome and cared for.
I would recommend this office for anything and everything you are going through in your health.
UPDATE:
My allergy is usually bad around fall season. One time in late Nov this year I came in sniffling. Dr. Zhiao told me that she will help me get rid of it. She said she has a new technique that will help me.
Since the 1^st day she treated me up to now I have not touched my nose spray and zyrtec!
Thanks Dr. Zhiao!

Dr. Zhao is very knowledgeable and friendly. She knows what I was talking about, finds the problem quickly, and offers effective solutions. Didn’t really believe in Chinese acupuncture, but now I would recommend her to anyone!

Dr. Zhao is the best. I tore something in my shoulder & I could not use at all! She saved me! I m a hairdresser so I needed her! I was fixed in 6 days! Soft spoken sweet, my kids have been coming to her since they were tiny! Marina at the front desk is very sweet & helpful.

When I sleep wrong and can’t move my neck this is the first place I usually think of to go for a remedy. Western medicine seems to have a pill for everything with many of them designed to make you stiff in some way but nothing for a stiff neck. Strange.
Dr. Zhao is very personable with a very gentle touch. She is highly trained in Chinese medicine and acupuncture with degrees from China and Japan so I feel safe and comfortable with her. She combines acupuncture, acupressure and cupping to relieve my neck pain.
My chicky friend is Chinese so she talked this round-​ish eye (mostly european with a good portion of Japanese, I’m a mutt I know) into trying this form of medicine and I gotta say. As much as I dislike needles and as much as it was out of my comfort zone to begin it’s worth at least trying and I think Dr. Zhao was a big part of me being comfortable.

I am a Registered Nurse and I have been going to see Dr. Zhao for more than 2 years. She is very professional and honest yet very kind and understanding. Knowing she practiced internal medicine when back in China and have a MD degree from Japan also a big plus.
I first start seeing her hoping acupuncture can help me with regulating my endocrine level without interventions from Western medicine. What ever she did on me and the herbal tea she gave me worked. I was very happy with the outcome and my condition has been being stable. I am on regular/​maintenance treatment plan with Dr. Zhao.
Dr. Zhao is also very good with pain management. She also treated me for my lower back pain and neck/​shoulder pain once a while. The pain usually went away within 1 – 2 treatments. I always feel relaxed and energized after each treatment; just laying in my own treatment room, enjoy the light music playing in the air and napping/​meditating while the treatment is going on.
I have sent couple of my friends to see Dr. Zhoa for different concerns, like allergies, anxiety, fatigue, insomnia, and weak digestive system. All I can say is acupuncture and herbs worked for them. They were all happy and grateful with Dr. Zhao’s help.
I will definitely recommend Dr. Zhao to anyone who is interested in Oriental medicine and wants different opinion other than Western medicine.

Went to Dr. Huifang Zhao to receive acupuncture and had a horrible experience. She was not gentle at all and I wouldn’t recommend Dr. Huifang Zhao. I can’t speak for the other doctors however.

This works. Talk about relaxing — if you are over stressed — give it a try!

I love this place! 1^st of all they were the only place that took there time to talk with me before even making an appointment. 2^nd, they are always available for me or make time to see me even when they are booked up. 3^rd, this place is very comfortable it feels like home. 4^th, they are very professional and kind.
Before seeing Dr. Zhao I had been going to different doctors for my back and now I only see her and haven’t needed to see my chiropractor in 2 yrs, nor my regular doctor in months. I no longer take pain meds. I have been coming here for 2 ½ to 3 yrs and bringing in my kids & husband, we all love Dr. Zhao and highly recommend this place.

Love this acupuncture healing center. The front staff is very helpful and the space is nice and quiet & comfortable with soothing spa music. Dr. Zhao is very gentle and caring. I highly recommend them!
