Jennifer is absolutely wonderful! I’ve been dealing with all different sorts of issues related to my hips from years of ballet, including torn cartilage that may require surgery in the future. Prior to seeing Jennifer I could walk for about 30 minutes maximum before pain set in. Now I’m in the best shape I’ve been in for a while an regularly going on 6+ mile hikes. For now I have my life back and I’m not limited by my pain anymore!

Until I started seeing Jen, I thought I'd have to live with the painful swelling in the joints of my fingers on both of my hands from arthritis. I had large, red, swollen nodules on my finger joints that really limited the flexibility of my fingers. I could not curl my fingers into a fist without experiencing pain. It started to affect my ability to grasp. I saw an acupuncturist in the past, who told me there was not much he could do for the arthritis in my fingers. After my fourth appointment with Jen, I was amazed at how much the swelling of the nodules on the joints of my fingers had gone down

I should have written this review a long time ago. I have since moved out of the Bay Area and although I have a great acupuncturist now, I definitely miss Jennifer's technique. If fact, I miss her technique so much that I have been considering making the 90 minute drive to see her. She's so worth it! She was key is managing my low back pain, especially right when it started. She is great listener and always adapted her approach based on what I needed. If you are in the Bay and need acupuncture, go see her!

I went to Jennifer Ross for issues with plantar faciitis brought on by shelter-in-place home exercise stupidity. After one visit, my foot was ~50% better; after 2 visits I'm about 80% there.
For me, Dr. Ross was a hail mary after my doctor & and orthopedist told me to stay off my foot for 4 weeks. My mental health couldn't take that kind of blow - and I'm so glad I found her. I've never had acupuncture, don't know anything about dry needling or whatever, and generally lean more towards Western medicine. Dr. Ross integrates both - acupuncture techniques combined with deep knowledge of anatomy

Dr. Ross has changed my life. I initially decided to make an appoint after a referral from my cousin who raved about her because my periods are absolutely terrible. In addition, I also am a highly stressed individual and experience back pain quite frequently. She’s helped with all of it! Her calm, warm, and kind demeanor is refreshing. She’s got me on an herbal regimen to treat my periods and it’s been a game changer! I used to take 600-800 mg of ibuprofen 2-3 times a day while on my cycle but I no longer have to take any at all! Whenever I’ve had a rough week or my back has been acting

I recently started to see Jennifer for an issue I have had in my shoulder for about a year now. After going to physical therapy for months with not much relief, I decided to try acupuncture and am so glad that I did because I'm feeling better and have no doubt that the issue will be resolved soon. She is amazing at what she does and I am so happy to have found her.

I would say that Jen is magic, but that would be reductive. What she is is skilled, knowledgable and super good at her job. She did for my plantar fasciitis in three sessions what a podiatrist, prescription anti-inflammatories and two years of custom orthotics couldn't - I no longer dread standing up or getting out of bed in the morning and am out of pain. Plus she's funny.

I had never done acupuncture before meeting Jennifer. I was in a car accident and my back was in bad condition. I couldn't even bend over a quarter of the way down before our first session. After ONE session I could bend more than half way down! Ms. Ross is a MIRACLE worker!! Extremely professional, and just an overall great human being. I highly recommend Jennifer if you need treatment!! You will not be disappointed.

This woman saved me last week! I woke up with a stiff neck and debilitating pain that wouldn't go away for a week. She generously found time in her schedule to treat me, and it was incredible. She did massage, needling, and cupping my range of motion had improved noticeably while I was still there in the office, and by the next day I was nearly back to normal. Today I'm pain free completely.
I had been concerned I wouldn't be able to dance in an event I had over the weekend. I dance and my neck felt great.
Thank you infinitely Jenn. It was because of you I was able to move pain

I am so grateful I found Jennifer! Since my first visit, I have been pain free!!! Before I started acupuncture, I had to take pain meds daily to control the pain. I have not taken a single pain pill since I've been getting acupuncture from Jennifer which was about two months ago. I was very apprehensive about trying acupuncture because I don't like needles, but every time I told someone about the pain I was experiencing they recommended it. Jennifer makes me talk and forget about what she is doing. I feel fantastic after every treatment! I highly recommend her -- she's a really nice

Jennifer is just fantastic. I had been having severe back pain for more than 6 months despite 3 epidural injections so I was desperate. After the first several treatments my pain was much better. I have now had 8 treatments and my pain is truly 80% better. I am so happy with my results that I plan on continuing with her for maintenance. I feel very fortunate to have met Jennifer.
The office is clean, welcoming and there is always easy parking.
You will not be disappointed if you have Jennifer treat you!

I'm so glad I found Jennifer! I've been dealing with an upper back issue for about 7 months. I've tried rest, massage, physical therapy, and nothing was resolving it. I think the massage and physical therapy were actually making it worse. I thought I was just going to have to live with the pain forever. Four sessions of dry needling with Jennifer has brought unbelievable relief. I feel like a new person. I'm so grateful.

I had a cupping session with Jen and it was amazing new experience.
Booking is super easy!
There are many parking spots in front of the building.
Jen welcomed me and explained me what is going to happen for the session.
As a first timer, I was glad that she walked me through the process and she made sure I understood the cupping procedure. If you have questions or concerns, or pains before the session, ask her! She will give you some advise. She is very professional and friendly at that same time.
The room is very clean and simple and I love the decor!

Jen has helped me so much, and I love working with her. I rely on my body for my work as a yoga and dance teacher, so it's essential for me to be healthy. Jen's skill, knowledge and down-to-earth personality are only some of the reasons why I feel so confident recommending my students and friends to her. I've seen results within the same day of a session with her.

Jen is an amazing clinician. Her use of dry needling to release my lats, teres, and upper trap - while not fun - is one of the most effective methods I have experienced to facilitate recovery in my shoulders. As a physical therapist, I have sent her many of my clients to help carry over the work that I do. I am stoked to be able to work with her on a personal and professional level; I cannot recommend her highly enough!
