- Rina is the best! I guess not much has changed since the last review in 2024 :P
- real people answer the phone and schedule appointments! no robots! actual customer service!
- they take Healthy SF insurance! It bills annually so paperwork is really kept to a minimum (and they can email it)
- quiet, welcoming atmosphere with heat lamp and extra pillows and stuff to help my back. It's like a micro day-spa
So glad I came back here after taking a break for some years. It's great to do something nice for my body :) and the staff are very professional and Rina has been doing this for 8 years, so no newbie clinic vibes!

I had a fantastic massage with Chris Robertson earlier this week, and I'm still feeling light from it. The space is really comfortable and Chris gave me his full attention, doing his work and responding to me. His communication style and approach made the whole experience all the better. But the massage! Magic. Thank you!
I've been visiting accupuncturist Rina for over a year already and I highly recommend her to everybody who needs this service.Rina is very knowledgeable,very professional,very welcoming and friendly.She is extremely attentive to patients' complains and problems.
I am deeply thankful to Rina for her help,care and support!

I had my first appointment with Chris, a massage therapist in the Bernal location. I've been dealing with acute shoulder and neck pain for the last three months, and my session with him was a game changer. I had so much relief, I couldn't believe it. I practically skipped the whole 40 minute walk home. This gets my highest recommendation.
Chris was very attentive to my problem areas and gave great care knowing that I’m an athlete. We also had great conversation before and after.

Rina is the best! After being recommended by another acupuncturist to have weekly treatments for my severe insomnia, I initially visited two other acupuncturists at different clinics. However, I chose to continue with Rina because she truly listens, pays close attention to my concerns, and goes above and beyond to treat me.
I've been seeing Rina weekly for almost 8 months now, and my insomnia is almost completely cured. I highly recommend her and have been referring all my friends and family to her.

I just wanted to express my gratitude to Patricia for my acupuncture treatments, but above all for her attention and ability to help me with my neck and right hand pain. You are truly special. Thank you for your professionalism and care to keep the pain away from my body !"
The best time of my week is how I feel when I leave East-West Integrative Medicine Clinic
NOE VALLEY Location. Apart from relieving pain, it relaxes my mind, body and general well-being. I feel that Patricia is the one who treats my entire person with her knowledge and compassion. I highly recommend Patricia and acupuncture to help improve your life.
I go regularly to East-West for acupuncture--Joey Bennet is the BEST! I have a chronic pain condition and I don't know about you, but acupuncture from a supremely skilled provider is far preferable and better than pills, pills, pills. And if you have a chance, arrange a session with Randall for a fantastic massage.
