No. of treatments: 5

Reasons for treatment: Sports-related injuries

Result: I am a basketball player, which means I get injured all of the time. I got acupuncture five times at Pleasant Wellness, and I have to say that I’m very glad I did. After just a few sessions, I left feeling much better and able to play basketball again.

Your experience: I hate needles, but Dr. Chen is very gentle, patient, and professional.
