I've been getting acupuncture treatments for my back pain and anxiety for 3 years now. The doctors are well trained and caring. Their front desk administrator is a gem and always welcomes you with a smile and asked about your day. Highly recommend!!

It works, I don't know how but it truly works. Doctor Nguyen is amazing. I have seen her the the past few weeks due to difficult pregnancy symptoms (my body has the worst aches and pains). Today for example I was have the worst lower back pain, I couldn't sleep all night it hurt to sit, lay down and walk. At the end of the session I felt sooo much better. She tailors what your body needs in that appointment to make you feeling better. Everytime I get acupuncture I sleep amazing that night. If you are on the fence I am here to tell you it is 100% worth the try.

Highly recommend Empirical! Dr. T and Dr. A are both incredible and have catered and been flexible with my needs and care plan for the year I’ve been a patient. I see both providers are acupuncture and various herbal supplements. Staff is pleasant and understanding.

I’ve been going to Empirical for 8 months and now a true believer that one can reverse an autoimmune disease with the proper treatment plan and support. The front staff and both dr’s are extremely kind and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend to anyone interested an alternative medicine route.
