Julie is incredible in many ways as a healer. I have seen quite a few acupuncturists and she is one of the very best. She takes her time to really listen to every detail and is extremely knowledgable. She helped me very much and am appreciative. I highly recommend her, she is very honest and forthcoming and a great healer.

Julie is amazing! She got rid of a chronic 4 month long case of shingles on my arm when nothing else worked (including treatment from a previous acupuncturist). She is now an indispensable part of my overall health strategy. She's helped me with digestive issues, sleep stuff, anxiety, and frustratingly painful and sporadic menstruation. Her depth of knowledge and bedside manner make her so comfortable to be around and trustworthy. HIGHLY recommend. Best acupuncturist in Boulder.

I had chronic bursitis in my hips for almost 10 years. I was convinced to try acupuncture after prodding by my girlfriend. She assured me Julie Zhang was the best there was and that the needles would not hurt. She was right on both accounts. The needles did not hurt and Julie really is amazing. Not only did she do acupuncture, but she recommend cupping for my hip bursitis. She explained I needed to get the blood flowing so the pain as a result of the inflammation would decrease. After one treatment I knew this was for me. My pain levels began to decrease and after only 4 treatments, I was pain

I have been seeing Julie for over 3 years now- I used to have chronic shoulder/neck pain due to a yoga injury and after a few weeks of seeing Julie twice a week I was amazed at how liberating it feels to be without pain. Ever since she helped me with my shoulder/neck, she is my go-to for anything muscle/stress/anxiety related. I look forward to seeing her every month for acupuncture/cupping and her magical short acupressure massage. The Chinese herb tea pills she recommended have helped me so much as well! She truly is a Boulder Gem and I consider myself lucky to have found such a wonderful, caring

I am so grateful to have found Julie!! I started going to Inner Balance Acupuncture 2 years ago after having many surgeries associated with health issues. I was in constant pain and found tremendous relief after having acupuncture here. Julie listened to all my issues and has been a huge part of my healing journey! I highly recommend Inner Balance Acupuncture!

I first came to Julie more than 10 years ago with back pain from bad posture and long hours of sitting. I had tried many methods of pain management including painkillers, massage, physical therapy, and yoga, none of which worked. Julie quickly recognized the correct treatment and I underwent several weeks of acupuncture therapy, which improved my condition and energy level. Since then I have been coming to Julie for shoulder injuries and a maintenance program for my back issues. Julie’s affordable pricing allows me to come to her office whenever I feel the need. I highly recommend Julie’s skill

I came in to see Bret a couple of months ago for chronic pain and neurological damage. After seeing every type of doctor and almost giving up and accepting that the pain will last forever, I finally went into Inner Balance for acupuncture. He has been a godsend for me. I had been to acupuncturists in the past and I never have noticed a difference, so I thought it was pointless. I was wrong. What I've learned is that not all acupuncturists are equal. Bret is incredibly talented at what his does and his work has changed my life.

I've seen Julie for about 10 years for different conditions (from digestive problems, sciatic pain, to a Bell's palsy episode among others). The reason why I continue seeing her is that she gives results. many family members have seen her as well and all of them happy with results. She really listens to you and explains clearly the course of treatment. I've seen other acupuncturists in Boulder and I really believe she's one of the best in town.
