By addressing the sources of inflammation and reestablishing your body's innate healing capabilities, we can optimize normal physiological function and eliminate triggers. Preserving brain health as we age is of vital importance in order to live a happy, disease-free life. We identify and reverse negative health trends before they become a more serious diagnosis.

First time ever consulting with Chinese medicine.
Thomas was warm, compassionate, knowledgeable and patient with me.
He answered all my questions and then some.
He explained my internal body and it's needs In a way I could understand.
He walked me through the whole process.
I decided to start with acupuncture, this was my first time. He explained to me exactly what I would feel and he was right.
The room was clean and inviting. The music was soft and gentle.
I barely noticed that over an hour had come and gone.
I would highly recommend coming here weather it's your first time

I found Thomas via Groupon, and went to him for a horrible back strain. I'd tried rounds and rounds of physical therapy and different chiropractors and nothing worked until I found Thomas. Within a couple of weeks, my back starting loosening up until I was pain free and moving like normal again. I've gone back multiple times whenever I have injuries or flareups. I love that the rooms are heated, it helps me relax. I'm really hoping that in person appointments will be available again soon!

Came here with an acute muscle spasm after 2 sessions of chiropractic treatment that weren't very helpful. Thomas WORKS WONDERS. I Left feeling much more relaxed in a little bit more centered. When I came in my body was literally crooked because my muscles were so tight. So grateful that the business is open during COVID-19. I was safely seen while wearing a mask and Thomas had a mask on as well. Looking forward to my next session!

Thomas is an amazing gentle and caring healer. He's helped me eliminate hand cramping in just a few sessions, helped me heal a growth of sorts of the back of my head, I was scared it was serious. And he's helping me recover from runner's knee. Thomas guided me through a detoxing cleanse that really helped my recovery process. I have seen him for acupuncture, acupressure, and cupping and you should too!

Austin is my guy! As someone who avidly lifts weights, works on my feet, and loves outdoor sports, i've dealt with minor to major pains and set backs. I came to Austin with a shoulder injury and he was very receptive as well as knowledgeable of his craft. He was able to pin point my shoulder pain and alleviate my injury. Since I've seen him over the last few months, taking the time to chat about my exercise routine, and other more serious injuries I've had in the past, he's given me incite and relief that has made a huge difference in my life. He's even helped relieve the

Thomas and Austin are exceptional acupuncturists. I've received A LOT of acupuncture over the years and I usually find one person I like and stick with them. However, both of them have such unique qualities and such a high degree of skill that I'm fine with whichever person fits my schedule. I highly recommend Thomas and Austin as they're both empathetic and skilled.

I am amazed at the knowledge and compassion I received from Thomas Cobb! He explained everything to me about why my Lungs were not healing as well as what I had to do in order to find my way back to having my life back. A healthy life again. I have been sick with Acute Asthma from May 2018. numerous Doctors/Specialists as well as experimental Biologic Injections.
Within 2 hours - yes he talked to me for over an hour of acupuncture.
My body and lungs feel better and I will follow his suggestions on what I need to do for ME!
Thankyou for your support and knowledge.

Left Coast Acupuncture is a 5 out of 5! It's been a few days since my first acupuncture/ air cupping treatment and I feel way less tightness in my lower back from gymnastic exercises! Dr. Cobb has incredible insight on Traditional Chinese Medicine. You can really tell he cares about the wellness of his patients. The receptionist there at Left Coast was very accommodating and polite. I'll definitely be back!

I can not thank Thomas Cobb enough for how much he has helped me. I decided to give acupuncture a try when I could not find a solution for my horrible neck pain. I have numerous horseback riding injuries and scoliosis. I have been seeing an A.R.T. specialist for 8 years for these problems but in that last year year my neck was just getting worse. It got to the point where I was getting horrible migraines and greatly decreased mobility. It was making me miserable.
After ONE visit, my neck pain was GONE. I could not believe it. Not only did he relieve my neck pain, but it actually lasted. I have

I have been a frequent patient of Thomas for over a year and a half, and I can honestly say, he has changed my life.
After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, I went into years of feeling out of balance. I was constantly moving through intense physical and emotional swings, dealing with increased anxiety, insomnia, inflammation, and feeling overall defeated by my condition and all of the physical and emotional ailments that come with it.
I finally decided to give acupuncture a try after being prescribed intense medications for my insomnia/fatigue/anxiety/on top of medications for my condition

I had a great visit today with Dr. Cobb. I have seen him for acupuncture many times and each time I experience calm healing energy from his treatments. His acupuncture treatments are transformative and I always feel a sense of calm and serenity after my treatments. Dr Cobb is also a master Chinese herbalist.
Today I was excited to find out that he is incorporating Functional medicine into his practice. Dr. Cobb has a unique system of using modern functional medicine blended with traditional medicines like Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture.
I highly recommend Left Coast Acupuncture!

I was recently diagnosed with Bell's Palsy. The doctors told me to wait it out, but I wanted (and needed) to find a remedy quickly for my own well-being. After searching the internet, I came across acupuncture as a possible solution. Thanks to LivingSocial, I purchased a 3 visit deal for this clinic. It was my first time, but Thomas Cobb eased all of my fears and explained everything so thoroughly. The first time, I could not feel anything but the day after treatment, my eyebrow started to voluntarily move. The day after my second visit, my face started to relax and both eyebrows started

Groupon review!
First timer with acupuncture. I was honest and received great feedback and advice from the owner. I had amazing results from one treatment.
4 stars except one because of this little detail.
I was parked at a meter and told the owner I'd like to be out by "x" time due to the meter which would cut the appt about 20 short. I didn't mind because I didn't want a ticket! The owner said "Of course, no problem!"
Well, it felt like years in that dark room and I was so bored! However, I trusted him and just stayed put. When he finally came to get me

My husband slipped his disk on a Saturday few months ago and I found there are not many acupuncture places that are open on weekend. Left Coast was the one we found that we could go.
Thomas Cobb was very friendly and professional. He asked us few questions and listened to us very carefully.
Thank you so much for taking care of him.

Dr. Thomas C at Left Coast Acupuncture is not only a very knowledgeable practitioner of acupuncture and herbs, he is one of the most kind, gentle, authentic human beings I have ever met!
When I first started, I was in terrible shape!! I have a lot of , lets say, " obstacles", health wise and seeing a new acupuncturist was somewhat difficult for me. Dr. Thomas C was so kind, non- judgmental when we met and has and still continues to help me. He is very generous with his knowledge and time , yet, at the same time, is amazingly humble and spiritual. I feel very lucky to have found
