Dr.. Zhang is very good and very nice. My right arm has a spot that hurts a lot.Dr. Zhang did acupuncture for me, just a few minutes, it doesn’t hurt anymore. Very impressive!👍

Dr.Ava literally saved my life today! I woke up with neck pain and very limited range of movement + left arm can’t be raised up. Dr.Ava handled the urgent matter with such care and got me in the same day. The fix itself was incredibly effective and I’m back to moving freely with my neck. So grateful for her skill!

Due to prolonged desk work, I developed persistent pain in my back and neck. I was referred by a friend to Ava Zhang and had one treatment session. Ava demonstrated strong professionalism throughout the process. She conducted a thorough assessment before the session and tailored the treatment accordingly. Her technique was precise, and communication was clear and reassuring. After just one session, my back and neck discomfort were noticeably relieved. Overall, it was a highly professional and effective experience, and I would highly recommend her.

I was very lucky to find Dr. Ava online. I had sudden, constant shoulder pain for two days over the weekend. Thankfully, Pain Control & Sports Medicine is open on weekends. I called, and Dr. Ava was very understanding of my pain and gave me an urgent appointment. The pain came out of nowhere, but Dr. Ava was very patient and professional in treating me. After just one treatment, there was a big improvement. This was much better than my experience at Kaiser, where they only told me to take ibuprofen, and after the X-ray found out possibly is Calcific tendinitis. They only suggested a cortisone injection, which didn’t really address my issue.

This place is truly amazing. I had a muscle tear in my lower back and the pain was so severe that I couldn’t even stand up straight. The doctor here helped relax my muscles and improve circulation through acupuncture, and I felt immediate relief. I was even able to start walking slowly again. Highly recommend!

Dr. Ava is amazing! I’ve had ear ringing and hearing loss for several years, and I’ve seen many doctors and tried many treatments without improvement—until today. After about an hour of treatment with Dr. Ava, I already feel much better! Thank you so much, Dr. Ava. I’m looking forward to seeing you again soon!
