Above the entrance to Core Acupuncture on Arch Street in Chinatown, Philadelphia hangs a humble sign with a lotus flower, a symbol of purity, enlightenment, self regeneration and rebirth. My experience has been absolutely gratifying. If one is searching for the missing link in Holistic health and healing; wisdom would say… Core Acupuncture is an ideal place to start and continue with one’s journey.

This was a great place at first but my hard-earned money was stolen. I brought my concerns to the acupuncturist and paid In advance for six sessions of therapy, despite my instincts to never pay in advance, she suggested it this was cheaper. One of my friends recommend her so I went along with this process. I was 5 sessions down and had one left. I called and made an extreme the effort to contact her But she refused me service for my last session.

I had a pinched nerve, lower back pain and a neurological issue that I wanted to treat. The doc had extensive experience treating all of my maladies.I came here based on google reviews. All customers felt that the doc really knows her business. The fact that she was educated in China was a bonus to me; I’m not going to discount centuries of knowledge due to xenophobia.Anyhow, compared to other methods of treatment, acupuncture seems to be thoroughly effective and reasonably priced.After 2 treatments my pinched nerve was resolved. On the 3rd, my lower back was doing way better.I’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for remedies that haven’t had luck with a chiropractor or other treatments.This gal absolutely knows what she’s doing, has been doing this since ~87 if memory serves me. She listens to her patients and is very good at putting her visitors at ease.The place is very clean, organized, and welcoming. And very reasonably priced.

I had pain in my left shoulder/neck for years from running/working out. Nothing helped (physical therapy, medications, bio freeze, taping, etc.)My primary wanted me to get an X-ray & MRI. Before I went down that route, I decided to get acupuncture. Did my research and decided to try Core. Pain gone in one session. ONE! It’s been abt 3-4 months and still no pain. I couldn’t be more thrilled! Both doctors are extremely nice and very educated in their field. I highly recommend.

Thank you for 35years of the best health care service , I had been seeing Dr Frank and Dr Andy for years.... my two last visits were with Dr Zhong , an amazing recovery after one week , and to lock my recovery in place , I chose to have a second round of acupuncture and herbs. Thank you pat P.
