What is Acupuncture and How Can It Help You?

Acupuncture may be defined as a type of medical treatment that helps the patient to fight against diseases through the mechanical stimulation of pre-established acupuncture points (meridian points) on the body. Acupuncture can be traced back through four thousand years, archeological findings from the Shang Dynasty (c. 1300 BC) reveal early medical notations, and by the Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD), there is evidence of a complex acupuncture and Oriental medical system.

Acupuncture continues to evolve, and today is rooted in the mainstream of Asian medical systems and has branched out to meet the growing demand for safe, clinically effective and affordable health care in the west.

Our body has innate abilities to overcome diseases and illnesses. According to traditional Chinese medical theory, acupuncture promotes these abilities to heal itself by regulating and balancing the flow of Qi (Chee), often described as the body’s electromagnetic energy, that travels along channels identified over centuries of meticulous clinical observation by Chinese practitioners.

”The ancient Chinese art of Acupuncture is an effective treatment for certain kinds of pain and nausea. It shows promise for a variety of other conditions, providing and unprecedented endorsement by Western medical establishment”
--Washington Post, November 6, 1997

The panel concludes there is: “Clear evidence that acupuncture is an effective treatment for nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy drugs, surgical anesthesia, or pregnancy, and for pain following dental surgery. Acupuncture has fewer side effects and is less invasive that many other things physicians do.”

Client Testimonials

Infertility Success Stories! --

""Dr. Zhang, Thank you so much for helping me conceive a second time. Very early on you guessed it would be a boy, and you were right! Thanks to you I now have a beautiful 2 year old girl and a very handsome 3 month old son. I cannot thank you enough - you are truly amazing. I hope all is well with you and your family. Sincerely, Jennifer"

"Both Tim and I want to THANK YOU for everything. We truly believe if it was not for your help and guidance we would not have our son Ace Jordan in our lives. We tell everyone we meet about you and your services. After our ectopic pregnancy, D&C, chemotherapy and IVF tests, it was great to conceive naturally with your help - and so fast. Even after my doctor wrote off our pregnancy - due to hormone levels not increasing, you kept telling me to keep drinking the herbs and we even shocked our doctor! You also told us we were going to have a baby boy and you were right - once again! :) We now have a beautiful addition to our family. If there is anyone who might want to discuss what we went through, please feel free to give them our email to contact us (ayda008@yahoo.com). I will be in to see you soon :) Thanks again - with all our heart!"
-- Ayda and Tim, Herndon, VA

"After having four miscarriages, my husband and I went though almost every possible diagnostic procedure there is in western medicine and were told that I had 0 to 5% chance of getting pregnant with my own eggs. The news was devastating for us even though we had a son. We wanted another child so badly. I remember crying for few days, and then decided to become my own advocate. I really didn't believe the diagnosis because I was only 34 years old. I began my search for alternative treatment through Internet and learned about traditional Chinese medicine. I found Dr. Zhang in my local area and went to him for consultation. After Dr. Zhang examined me, he told me that if I started treatment (acupuncture and herbs) I would be pregnant within 3 months. Just one month after having TCM treatment by Dr. Zhang, I became pregnant and recently gave birth to a beautiful daughter. Dr. Zhang is a positive and confident professional. We cannot express our gratitude enough, and because of his help we have a beautiful little girl!"
-- R. Thaker, Centreville, VA

“For some people (including myself), getting pregnant is not as easy as others. My husband and I went though almost every possible diagnosis procedure there is in western medicine. Doctors couldn't find any problem nor give much of suggestions. I have always believed in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Five-thousand-year clinical experience cannot go wrong. Therefore when it comes to infertility, I had to turn to the herbs and acupuncture. After just four months of treatment by Eugene Zhang, at age of 37, I became a proud of expecting mother. For all my friends, they know I have the best baby every parent wants to have.”
-- F. Yang, McLean, VA

“My husband and I consulted a reproductive endocrinologist in the fall of 2003, after more than two years of unsuccessful attempts at pregnancy. We both underwent six weeks of routine tests, only to be told that our best chance to get pregnant was with in vitro fertilization. Even then, our chances of a successful pregnancy were only 40-50 percent. We decided against the financially and mentally expensive procedure and instead turned to Dr. Eugene Zhang and acupuncture. Both my husband and I underwent acupuncture treatments beginning in September 2003. After two months of treatments, we learned we were expecting our first child. We cannot express the depth of our gratitude to Dr. Zhang. Because of him, we have a beautiful, happy, and healthy son.”
-- B. Highman, Clifton, VA

“I have the highest respect for the work of Eugene Zhang. When I began to see him, I was 39 years old and hoping to get pregnant. I was in good general health, but I felt acupuncture might be beneficial. Even so, I was a bit skeptical. Eugene (or Dr. Zhang) helped me identify ways in which I could increase my wellness and he treated me on the days of my cycle that would be beneficial for conception. He provided herbs that helped my body be its best and most receptive. The result? I recently gave birth to a 7lb 14oz, beautiful and healthy baby girl who has taught me more about love in four weeks than I had learned in 40 years. Eugene (Dr. Zhang) was always kind, positive, helpful and a consummate professional. I am no longer a skeptic. I'm a convert!”
-- J. Jackson, Alexandria, VA

"After three long years of infertility, my husband and I decided to try IVF. I had read the studies showing the increased success rates of IVF cycles combined with acupuncture, so we decided to add it to our treatment. Eugene Zhang came highly recommended and now we know why! Our IVF cycle, along with Eugene's treatments, was successful and now we have a beautiful daughter! We believe that Eugene was an integral part of that success and we are forever grateful! We have since recommended Eugene to several people in conjunction with their IVF cycles and we know of at least 5 additional pregnancies among those folks! Thank you Eugene!"
-- L. Millinor, Oak Harbor, WA

"Dr. Eugene,
We just wanted to thank you for all you've done to help us concieve naturally! We know we still have a long way to go... but after being told we had less than an 8% chance of getting pregnant on our own... this is the closest we've got. We asked God to send us to someone who could help, and we beyong thankful He sent us to you. Thanks again for being such a blessing to us!"
-- Gena & Ervin
