Chiropractic Medicine heals the body by restoring the function of nerves while aligning bone and muscle. This neuromuscular therapy is effective for sports injury, pain, car accidents, and headaches. Chiropractic is a health care system that diagnoses and treats mechanical disorders of the spine and musculoskeletal system with the intention of affecting the nervous system and improving overall well-being.
More people are turning to therapeutic massage and energy work to provide relaxation, relieve tension associated with the daily stresses of their busy lives, or simply to help maintain good health and achieve a balanced lifestyle. Recent scientific research proves that massage therapy increases immune function, decreases stress levels and reduces recovery time.
We do not sell to general public, you must be seen by the doctor before herbal therapy is prescribed. Chinese herbology (herbal medicine) is considered to be the foundation of all the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) applications. What are Chinese herbs? Chinese herbs are not limited just to barks and roots; this simple term has been broadened to include many other medicinal agents and includes animal as well as mineral products.
Mary has given me a future of healthy, "smoke free" living. Today, I am smoke free for over 3 weeks for the first time in 40 years of smoking over 2 packs per day. Her skill, caring and dedication to me succeeding are the ingredients that cured me of my addiction. Thanks to Mary. Mary helped me get my health back on track!

Infertility is stressful and it's moving fast, and a lot is coming at you. At one point I left a negative review. It was more a reflection of where I was at at the time, and wanted to apologize. I hope the clinic continues to help people. You probably wont know whats happening during your acupuncture, but just go with it.

Dr. Mary and her partner in crime, Mary, are the best team I have dealt with for a long time! Dr. Mary takes our needs personally, and wants to bring us the best of health possible. Mary, her office manager, is the most organized, professional, yet personable person I have the good fortune in knowing. Thank you both for all you do for me!!

I had debilitating migraines for 15 years. Tried everything from PT to chiropractic, pain meds, allergy meds, birth control, went to neurologist, and no one even came close to controlling my migraines. I went to Mary to try an alternative to all of the drugs I was taking. Within a month my migraines became tolerable. Within two months I had zero migraines I continued to go for another 8 years just for maintenance. I have not taken a pain pill for a headache since. I will always be grateful to Mary for alleviating these migraines and giving me my life back. I have zero headaches and it has been

I'm thankful I was referred by a friend to this clinic. I had never had accupuncture prior to seeing Dr.
I am sleeping better. She has improved the issues I have with my digestive system and educated me on how my body reacts to the foods I thought were healthy. I look forward to each visit and the overall feeling I leave her office with after my treatment. I trust and believe in her.

I've been going to Dr Mary for over a year now. I go regularly for my autoimmune symptoms. I manage a lot of my symptoms with diet, but Dr Mary helped me get over the last hurtle of my issues and has been helping me maintain my good health. I notice if I've gone too long without a treatment and always feel instantly better afterward. She's a different doctor than you might be used to, but give her a chance. She's direct and knowledgable and very good at what she does. You may have to meet her half way with lifestyle changes, but it's worth it for your continued health.

After witnessing 2 friends have great success & healing stories from working with Dr Zhang I decided it was time to visit her myself. I have been dealing with a painful ovarian cyst for almost 2 yrs. I've gone through every test w no answers.
After 1 visit, Dr Zhang felt confident she could bring me relief AND address some other small issues I was concerned about as well. She also brought to my attention that all of these issues were related as well....who knew. I love the approach of TCL and Dr Zhang will pay the right plan and get you help.

I have had a wonderful experience with the Chinese Medicine Clinic over the last few years as a patient. Both Dr. Mary and Mary in the office have provided a very high level of personalized service that I have appreciated. Dr. Mary very much has the best interest of her patients in mind and works hard to help them reach their health/fertility goals. I would highly recommend checking out the Chinese Medicine Clinic.

I started seeing Dr. Mary to assist in fertility after trying to conceive for almost 2 years. After only 7 weeks of acupuncture treatments, I got a positive pregnancy test! Also, even with a full time work schedule it is very easy to find appointment times that work for me. I truly believe in Dr. Mary and have nothing but great things to say about the Chinese Medicine Clinic!

I really enjoy my visits with Dr. Mary. She's knowledgeable, caring and always provides me with hope and encouragement. Undergoing fertility treatment is a long and exhausting process so she's been a blessing during this process. My treatment is on going but already in a short time I'm sleeping better and feel I'm able to better manage stress. I highly recommend Dr. Mary.

Dr. Mary is fantastic. Fertility treatments are difficult no matter which route you take. Dr. Mary's approach is caring, direct, and very professional. She is the most knowledgeable acupuncturist I have ever been to. Thank you all at the Chinese Medicine Clinic for being compassionate, understanding, and helpful. Thank you for giving me hope during such a trying time.

I have been seeing Mary for about two months now for infertility. I am not pregnant yet but I have noticed massive changes in my body and my mood. My anxiety is almost completely gone.. I'm sleeping through most nights without waking up several times (I hadn't slept through an entire night in years). I have two other friends going to her for completely different things than me and she is doing wonders for both of them. If you have any kind of hormone imbalance I highly recommend going to her! Just a warning she is extremely to the point.. someone warned me of this and I'm glad they

This process isn't for everyone, but it can be the kick in the butt you absolutely need to get your life together if you are struggling. I have tried every kind of doctor for my joint pain, which somehow is undiagnosable as arthritis. I am only 33 and have lots of little ailments that make me feel not 100% and I'm too young to feel this way. I'm 5 weeks into treatment with Dr. Mary, and while she's going to tell you things you don't want to hear and things that are radically different that what anyone else has told you she can really drive you to make some big changes.

Allow me to spare you the $80 fee and sum up what you might hear during your initial "consultation:"
- "You mentioned that you prefer cold drinks over hot. Americans like too much ice in their drinks. It's an American thing. No more ice for you. You need to stop drinking ice."
- "Your specialty doctors are no good. Here's a number for someone in Chicago. Go see her instead, your other doctors do not care about your health."
- "That other acupuncturist that you saw is a joke. She doesn't know what she's talking about and scammed you. Anyone

I am a 30 year old female, and had suffered a miscarriage about 2 years before seeing Dr Zhang.
I had a consultation for fertility with Mary because I'd heard so many great reviews about her.
She said during my consult that I had "low progesterone, and that can easily be fixed, and I'll be pregnant soon."
This was all of 10 min with her, and I felt a little discouraged. How could she know so quickly what was wrong?
Well, I decided to start her fertility plan, and THREE seasons later she walked into the room I was being treated in, looked at me funny and touches my tummy.

Mary is a very good acupuncturist but has terrible bedside manner. I saw her 5 times and she greatly reduced my hip pain but belittled me for having anxiety. I've been diagnosed with PTSD with general anxiety with panic attacks. She called my fears stupid and said I wasn't being strong enough. These are things I say to myself all the time. She may be a talented acupunturist but a counselor she is not. Beware!

I paid $70 for literally a 5 min "consultation" on acupuncture for infertility that consisted of her yelling at me about my liver and then trying to awkwardly hug me at the end. The lady behind the counter was extremely mean to a gentleman that had left right before me as well. All this and the "program" would have cost me a few grand. There were zero redeeming qualities about this place.

Wow, I've now been a patient of Dr. Mary for 9 months. I've been seeing her for asthma and fertility issues. After 6 weeks of treatment I saw great improvement in my asthma being under control. I was also able to drop down in dosage on my inhaler.
For fertility, I saw great improvement after 4 months of treatment (typical length for improvement). My OBGYN basically told me, after lots of blood work, that it'd be extremely difficult for me to conceive. I went to Dr. Mary, followed her prescribed treatments of acupuncture and herbs. Then 4 months later we re-tested all my hormone

I've undergone treatment here for insomnia during pregnancy. At first I didn't expect much but was desperate so I decided to try it and if I didn't see an improvement within 5 sessions I was gonna drop it. (5 sessions is what an acupuncture-experienced friend recommended) Truth is, my husband noticed a difference within a couple of sessions. Not that I started sleeping 10 hours a night, i've never been able to do that. -But I was sleeping more than 4 hours a night and had more energy during the day.
