Friendly from the phone call, receptionist, to the acupuncturist great experience! Been going for years and from migraines, pancreatitis, swelling in legs due to complete knee surgery, acupuncture has helped me tremendously! No more migraines, pancreas, just taking probiotics for that now! Legs swelling, down now. I have been working with my PTSD and dissociation from childhood trauma. I am releasing body memories. I have overcome so much mind, body and spirit. They have taught me diet, herbs to help me in my wellness process! I am grateful the work they do. I am a individual person, they treat me as such and my needs. They explain what and why they are doing the designed treatment for me. I express to everyone I know, just to try it. I am 65 and take herbs, vitamins, eating better, oh did I mention I workout! Yes they have helped me with my addiction to food! They work with weight loss, addictions, what ever problem your dealing with they can help you. They have a variety of things they do. They work with you and you are part of the decision making in your plan. They see you and listen! Great place . . . can't express it enough. No the process doesn't hurt,they talk you through every step. How cool is that! Hope to see you there!

I have been going to the Five Branches clinic since 2011, and have seen both licensed doctors as well as student interns. To be clear, appointments with interns ARE cheap (in the $25-30 range), which you will not find anywhere else. I love this clinic and always get results!
