Fine single-use sterile needles are applied directly to trigger points and dysfunctional muscles to provide relief of pain, restore range of motion and provide proper functioning and firing. Acupuncture also activates the network of channels and meridians to function on an energetic level as well to restore the balance of both muscles and tissues as well as internal organs.

I've been an avid rock climber for many years, which means my body has been taking a beating for many years. I was experiencing a lot of pain and didn't know what to do when I stumbled upon this place. I honestly had no idea what to expect, but I took a chance and tried it out. I'm so happy I did. Timmy helped relieve my pain and improved my overall health. I'm going to continue seeing him for the foreseeable future. I highly recommend Timmy Tran Acupuncture!

I am a triathlete who working out an intense schedule of 6 days a week. I first came to Timmy for shin splints treatment, later for IT Band, foot, back of knee and shoulder. The pain usually go away after 1 session. Timmy is always gentle and a good listener. He is also strong in technical skills. I would highly recommend Timmy for pain management, qi gong, and other services he is offering.

Before working with Tim, I was experiencIng very high levels of anxiety throughout the day almost everyday. It was horrible. I knew I didn’t want to go on medication- all I knew is that I wanted a holistic solution to what I was experiencing.
When I first came in to the clinic I was in pretty bad shape. Tim took the time to listen to how I was feeling and what I was experiencing. I felt safe, and I felt he could really help me.
We started doing some energy work, along with some acupuncture consistently for a few weeks. The results were progressively getting better and better each day, and I

Tim is an amazing doctor. I received both Qi gong and acupuncture from him for a few times. I had lower back pain before and I recently hurt my wrist and hand from falling on a hike. His treatment has offered immediate relief on my wrist that I can continue to work on the next day. It also helps on my chronic elbow pain when he relaxed my shoulder and neck. He has great needling skill and I'm rather sensitive with needle. His treatment is just enough to get to the problem area but never too strong. (I don't like trigger points treatment so he find another way to treat me). I like seeing him as

I have healed many people using Reiki for over 10 years. And so, I thought I could somehow heal myself. However, that is not always the case. On April 19, 2019 I had an acute pain on the back of my neck. I have lived and coped with this pain for years. After the acupuncture treatment, my neck pain was alleviated and went away within 3 days.

My first appointment with Tim, he was very insightful and helpful and will continue to recieved treatment. It was a very comfortable feeling to know that he's very knowledgeable and experienced and was able to answer all my questions and explain everything with details. I was so impressed that he was also able to determine roots of difficulty in areas to relieved all the stressed and pain I had. After his acupuncture my body was so relaxed and was able keep on lifting weights. I would definitely recommend Tim Acupuncture to anyone who needs his healing which I had already experienced. Thank you

I wish I went to Tim sooner! I dislocated my index finger a few months ago playing basketball and the swelling would not completely go away. I never tried acupuncture before but after speaking with Tim I decided to give it a try. A few days after my session the swelling went down and I could now bend my finger without any restrictions. I'm hoping to come back for another session to see if Tim can get the swelling completely down.
