Thank you for your healing touched and for making such a huge difference in my life the past two years. I keep telling people about how much you helped me! Thanks, for all your aid, tender care, acupuncture skills, and conversations. I've had great success with all the herbal remedies that you have given me! Michelle, You are a lot more than a doctor! And much more than an acupuncturist!

Dr. Wu's Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Clinic provides holistic healing using Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, often in combination, according to each patient's individual needs. This type of holistic therapy focuses on healing the body as a whole, while taking care of any immediate discomforts, without the negative side effects of chemically-based medicine.
The medicinal benefits of herbs have been known for centuries. In China, traditional herbal remedies are still the backbone of medicine, and although we rely heavily on modern research for new cures for some diseases, herbal medicines are also fundamental to Western society's treatment of illnesses.
One night my heart started beating very fast. I was shaking and my chest felt tight. I got really scared, and I went to the emergency room. This was not the first time that I had an irregular heart beat, but it was by far the worst. The doctors told me that prescription drugs would not work for my condition because my heart went too fast and then too slow.

I originally visited Dr. Wu due to persistent tinnitus that was so bad it was keeping me up at night. After a few sessions, the severity decreased considerably and months later, I'm still much better. Dr. Wu is a true healer. She is kind, thoughtful, and sincere. I could tell that she genuinely cared about my well-being. I always felt like I was in very good hands with Dr. Wu and I am truly grateful to have found her.

I have been seeing Dr Wu off and on for the past 10 years. She has helped me immensely with everything from a torn meniscus to hot flashes and everything in between. She is extremely competent and I completely trust her. I always feel better after my appointments and certainly more at peace. Thank you Dr Wu!

Dr Wu is a very honest and good for her professional skills. I have nerve damage on vocal and stomach. After one and half years treatment I gradually start eating and able to speak a bit. Even the MD can't promise on stomach movement but Dr Wu tried her best. I like her honesty and upfront on treatment plan. My family doesn't believe acupuncture but they saw me from feeding tube shifting to regular food plus able to speak a bit. All I have to said is to thank you Dr Wu.

My brother is a MD, Board certified in internal medicine, and solely practices acupuncture in the Philadelphia area. He recommended Dr. Wu and has a high regard for her understanding and techniques. I have been getting acupuncture from her for about 10 years for various aches, pains, and injuries. She has been very helpful with severe joint pain in my shoulder, elbow, recovery from a knee injury after a bike accident, and a sports hernia (which was diagnosed at the Seattle Hernia Center). I highly recommend Dr. Wu.

Dr Wu is great. I have seen Dr. Wu for many years around 10 years. I had inner ear problems and the MD said they could not do anything. Dr Wu made it better. Now if it comes back a couple of appointment is all that is needed. She is very good at what she does. She has a true gift. She is honest and hard working. We have always been so glad that we found her.

I love Dr Wu. She is very good. She really knows what she is doing. She has help me, my husband and my daughter. My daughter did not believe in accupuncture so she was very suprise at how quickly and well it worked. Dr Wu has help me with lots of different problems. I just saw her this week. After shoveling snow I was very sore and had back pain. After seeing Dr Wu I felt so much better.

I was experiencing extreme fatigue and burning joint pain with hypothyroidism. When I decided to try acupuncture, my first choice was Dr Michelle Wu. I had been her patient around 1996, and I knew she was the best. After working with her this summer, I am feeling better than I ever have in my life- pain-free, and plenty of energy to get through the day.
After suffering for 2 years and trying different medications that didn't work, I'm thrilled to have found gentle, non pharmaceutical treatment with huge results. Many people settle for any acupuncturist nearby, but if you take the time to go to her website and read her bio, you will see her training and commitment far surpasses most practitioners, including her work doing hospital research in China.
For the same price (and it was covered by my insurance), you will receive exceptional care from a caring and compassionate, highly skilled professional. Why would you settle for less?

I looked up Dr. Wu after experiencing 6 months of crippling pain in the wrists and thumb joints. I had been to two hand doctors whose diagnosis both times was arthritis. I was in a desperate state, unable to use my hands and growing increasingly discouraged. I had been told that arthritis is untreatable, basically, not even with acupuncture. Then I read the testimonials on Dr. Wu's website and decided to give her clinic a try.
I felt immediate relief after the first session -- one of the happiest days of my life! Dr. Wu never exactly promised anything, but she was the first doctor to give me hope. She treated my back, to my great surprise, and after about 6 sessions it became clear that she was on the right track and was essentially resolving the issue. This was later confirmed by my physical therapist who also began treating me for thoracic spine ridiculitis, or a kind of nerve constriction that was impacting those nerves running through my arms and hands. Dr. Wu's gentle style and peaceful environment are a joy to experience. Her belief and competence in Chinese medicine are unshakable. I highly recommend Dr. Michelle Wu! A+++
