Numo Acupuncture

Came into Numo to get acupuncture for the first time to address back spasms and pain I had recently. Worked with Guillermo for the first session and he did a great job answering questions I had and made me feel more at ease. With the addition of cupping, I left feeling more relaxed and slightly sore as I felt some muscles that weren't activating as much before starting to activate. My second session was with Melanie and after explaining the lower back pain I had, she assessed my condition and worked on different points than I did my first session. She was very welcoming and I could tell she was very knowledgeable when she was putting in the needles and talking through some of them. The pain I had was still present, but I could feel it was improved when she had me rotate my hips to check afterwards. I also got a massage with Chuck and I definitely felt a lot of relief from all the tightness I was holding in my body. He was able to address the problem areas that I had in a way that I feel like my muscles really needed and explained and guided me through breathing through the releasing of specific deep tissue. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my experience so far and I will definitely be back!

Guillermo is fantastic!! I'm visiting my family from NYC. Guillermo has been treating my mom for the past few years, and she raves about him. I'm a recent graduate from acupuncture school, was in terrible need of a treatment. He was extremely patient and explained in detail the points he chose to needle. I felt fantastic afterwards and HIGHLY recommend Guillermo. Do you know how lucky you are to have such an accomplished acupuncturist in your area? Honestly. I took a pile of his business cards when I left and I've recommended him to all of my Bay Area friends.

I had pretty severe back pain in my mid to upper back on the left side, most likely due to break dancing. Went here to get it treated with a massage and after the first day, it already felt significantly better. However some of the pain was still there, so I went back for a second session and the results were pretty wild. The next day I felt 90% better, and that last 10% of pain faded over the next few days. So in total, I'd say the treatment was very worth. Chuck was the one who treated me and let me just say he definitely knows exactly what he's doing. Its really nice because he'll talk to you as he's performing different techniques, explaining what they are and what its good for. He'll also identify problem areas and how to fix, so you're not just left in the dark on what's happening. Chuck's a real personable guy with a friendly personality, and calm soothing voice which fits with the overall feel of the place. The facility itself is very relaxing and nice to be in, very zen. It was my first time getting any serious massage treatment and I'm glad Chuck was able to make it a comfortable experience. Will definitely be returning when I need to!

I have been a client for + 10 years! Faye is awesome. She is so knowledgeable and takes the time to explain why and what might be causing my pains. Furthermore, she gives practical advice on how to improve my condition. I used to be very scared of needles but Faye really makes you feel comfortable and its amazing how painless her acupuncture actually is! I've had such a great experience with this group that I've send both my aging parents, uncle, co-workers and other family members to her. She's taken great care of everyone!!! Thanks Faye and the NUMO team for their holistic approach to keeping us well!!

I had a pinched shoulder impingement and the acupuncturist was able to relieved the numbness after the first session. I had a total of 6 sessions and while the numbness is still there, most of it did go away. The clinic is in a quiet commercial area. My only suggestion is that I wished the clinic had individual rooms for all the patients. Most patients were placed in a large room during the treatment. However, it was quiet and clean during my visits. The acupuncturist that worked on me was thorough and knowledgeable. I would recommend this place.

I was desperate when I came to Victoria in the beginning of January, she gave me a lot of great recommendations, and doing acupuncture with her have improved my state significantly. Even though my condition is chronic, and lasted for years without improvement she was able to get me in much better state. I didn't interact with the rest of the Numo Acupuncture staff, but everyone is welcoming and friendly there. I'm generally very anxious person, coming to this place feels comfortable.

The first time I visited Numo acupuncture was 3 years ago. I had come in with a severe back pain and I was not able to stand/sit comfortably. I had also never tried acupuncture before, so I wasn't sure if acupuncture would be effective in treating sciatica or herniated disc in the lower back. Faye treated me for this and I was back to normal and pain free in a few days. She is very thoughtful, calm, knowledgeable and has given me a lot of great advice. To this day, me and I my husband visit Faye for any of our health issues and I highly recommend them.

What makes this place great is the people that work here. It’s obvious that the staff really enjoys working together and that family-feel is obviously extended to all of their patients. Faye is my favorite :) She is knowledgeable and extremely warm. She is always looking to help you understand your health instead of just simply treating you. I would highly recommend Numo to anyone looking to invest in longevity and wellness.
