Boston Chinese Acupuncture

Boston Chinese Acupuncture was founded in 2005 by Dr. Li Zheng and Dr. Changhong Zhou, who have each been practicing traditional Chinese medicine for over 25 years. Dr. Zheng specializes in hormone balance, autoimmune diseases and women's issues like PCOS and infertility. With his background in infectious diseases and vaccines, Dr. Zhou is a specialist in pain management and disorders affecting the elderly.

We provide a range of services in traditional Chinese medicine as well as a number of products at our clinic. For certain complex conditions that often require longterm care, we offer special packages of treatment protocols that we have developed from over two decades of clinical experience. There are currently special packages for allergies, cancer, facial rejuvenation, infertility, and weight loss.

Please call your insurance company for definite details. We take insurance if there is appropriate coverage. Q: What if I have Medicare as my primary insurance and a secondary plan with acupuncture benefits?
