“I've been getting acupuncture from Poney Chiang at River Clinic for migraines. I've gone from an average of four migraines a month to roughly one a month. The pain intensity has lessened to the point that the last four attacks were headaches instead of migraines. It has reduced the hours lost to laying in bed not able to participate in social activities, and lost productivity at work and at home. With fewer migraines I now also take less medication. I am so glad I tried acupuncture for my migraines as it has improved my quality of life. I would definitely recommend River Clinic and acupuncture to anyone suffering from migraines.”Read moreShow less

“I suffered for 2 year with very painful Trigeminal Neuralgia and finally had brain surgery to remove a brain tumor which was compressing the Trigeminal nerve.
However instead of improving, the pain got much worse after the surgery, leaving me unable to talk or eat and requiring medication to endure the pain.
A friend of my husbands referred us to Poney Chiang, an acupuncturist who is an expert in treating facial pain. His treatment protocol began to reduce my pain almost immediately and the pain continued to decrease gradually with continued treatments over the next couple of months. I have now been pain free for 2 months and have eliminated all medication.
Poney Chiang is highly skilled, brilliant, generous and compassionate. He was able to understand my issues from both the Chinese and Western Medical perspective. I am so very grateful for his help in getting me through this excruciatingly painful time and feel his work has been instrumental in my recovery.
I highly recommend him to anyone dealing with facial or any kind of nerve pain.”Read moreShow less
