Some background: As an undergraduate and graduate student, I majored in Psychology. “People”, as a subject, fascinated me. “People” amazed me, disappointed me, and enhanced my life. “People” could also be dangerous to themselves and others. I went to school and later interned at a time where serious personality deficits and mood disorders were treated with drugs and hospitalization. I […]

The weight gain, hot flashes, headaches, insomnia, lowered sex drive, loss of hair, thinning, drying skin are just a few symptoms that women are told are quite normal during menopause. They are not uncommon by any means; but they also don’t have to be […]

Robert the acupuncturist was fantastic. I started using him during the start of IVF process. I continued services for 4 months. He was very pleasant, professional, kind and supportive. I would definitely recommend him for your acupuncture needs. It was with his assistant the process was a success and expecting first baby girl in February 2019.
I've been going to the Care Wellness Center to see Dr. Zhou for about 2 months now for acupuncture treatment. The reason for my visit was to treat a severe case of tinnitus, among other things. Needless to say, it has been the only thing that has actually worked. I've been to several doctors before, got an MRI, balance test, went to a neurologists as they all insisted it had to do with Meniere’s Disease but weren't 100% sure. Meniere’s or not, Dr. Zhou has been the only one able to alleviate all symptoms, including dizziness. I’ve been tinnitus free for over a month now (I used to have symptoms every single night).
My husband and I could not easily afford another IVF cycle if the first cycle did not work, so we were committed to taking all the necessary steps to ensure the best chance of success during our first IVF cycle. Because of this commitment, and after researching the demonstrated effectiveness of acupuncture in increasing the success rates of IVF cycles, we eagerly decided to invest in acupuncture treatments under the care of Dr. Robert Herbst. From the onset, Dr. Herbst was very attentive to my needs. He answered all questions (even when I thought they were ridiculous) about the treatment plan, and the cost for acupuncture during an IVF cycle. We were impressed by his professionalism and friendly nature, and we were surprised that the cost for each treatment was much more affordable than we had imagined.
I can't thank Dr. Herbst (even Dr. Zhou who stepped in and assisted whenever possible) enough for all their support throughout this process. We are expecting our little miracle in November 20018 and part of that success is due to these wonderful doctors. You put my mind at ease and helped put me in the right frame of mind.
Care Wellness Center is a great place with a wonderful staff! Everyone is always so friendly and accommodating! The doctors really care about your well being and want to help you in any way they can. I did acupuncture for about 4 months with Dr. Herbst who took an interest in getting to know me and helping! I would recommend Care Wellness Center to anyone!
I started seeing Dr. Herbst six months ago after being diagnosed with GERD. I did not want to go the route of taking meds and not fixing the problem. I did the bloodwork to find out about food sensitivities, truly amazing the difference after stopping foods that were making me sick! Of course I was getting acupuncture as well. Recently I did a comprehensive GI test, and am on a course of treatment to heal my gut. With my acupuncture, and natural medicine to heal myself I feel so much better!! I am not uncomfortable all the time and have lost weight!! When asked I am always referring people to Dr. Herbst! I believe in the natural way to help your body heal and they are wonderful at the Wellness center! If you are looking for a alternative to western medicine this is the place to go!
