Sam & Ting are some of the nicest and most professional people I know. I feel totally safe and at ease with them. I used to be scared of acupuncture but they so are great at what they do that I just lay down and relax the whole time :) I have had an ongoing wrist issue for about 7-8 years now and I have been told by doctors that there is nothing they can do for my pain. I went to physiotherapy for years and my pain always came back. After 2-3 sessions at SIT acupuncture, I saw the BIGGEST improvement in years. Not only is my wrist not as swollen, I also rarely experience wrist pain anymore. Also

I've been going for treatment at Sam, Ingrid & Ting Acupuncture on and off for about 7 years and I feel very fortunate to have found them. I first approached them when I was undergoing cancer treatment and the acupuncture treatments administered by Sam helped me overcome the side effects of chemotherapy, recover from a mastectomy and effectively helped my skin recover from radiation. Currently, Sam is helping me recover from fat transfer surgery for breast reconstruction and I can see that the treatment sessions are making a big difference. Sam, Ingrid and Ting are also very warm and caring individuals

I've gone here for over 3 years. It started with my prepartum back pains - they really know their stuff and can pinpoint where my pain is coming from with one touch! I also did postpartum acupuncture with them...and over the years, I've come here for common colds, inflammation of lymph nodes, back pain, arm and shoulder pain (from carrying growing toddlers), shingles (yes, shingles!), and even bronchitis and other problems. I've even brought my growing babies here for their colds and eczema. When they treat you for one thing (i.e. say a common cold), they'll ask about your health generally and

I've been a big fan of SIT acupuncture for 9 years and still going. Sam, Ingrid and Ting provide attentive care for their patients. They've not only helped me with my different symptoms/illnesses, but also helped my family & friends. Over the years, they have improved my health in various areas: sprained ankle, injured knee, back pain, bloating issues, sinus issues, etc. I still remember how acupuncture have helped with my skin complexion due to improved circulation, so I was camera-ready for my wedding day. Regular acupuncture visits also helped me with easier & healthier pregnancy. Sam took away
