Best acupuncturist and therapist i have seen for a long time.

Attentive and sincere. Treat patients with great care.
SCVerified patient
This was my first time at this practice and I am impressed!!
I was a board certified acupuncturist who has been seeking this type of high quality treatment for a long time. I have gone to various acupuncturist over the years and I was never as impressed as I am with Yu Xu!
I have struggled with back pain for as long as I can remember and now sciatica. He started with a medical massage before acupuncture. Brilliant.
His comprehensive approach is just everything I have been looking for.
I look forward to my next treatment :)

It’s a great visit at Dr Xu. He would tell you what is happening in your body. He’s great on what he does. He’s friendly. He’s responsible.
EMVerified patient
Dr. Alex Xu was patient, thorough and willing to answer any follow-up questions I had during the consult. From my perspective, Dr. Xu was passionate and knowledgeable about the science of medicine and happily shared the information I asked for.
The experience was also enlightening and reminded me how blind we are to the efficacy of ancient medicine due to the propaganda from the western european medicine, and stereotyping/rejection of eastern medicine.
I look forward to learning more from Dr. Xu and incorporating eastern science more into my daily life.
Highly recommend this practice to all, especially if you are dealing with physical representation of your emotional distress!

For about 30 years, I've only been averaging about 4 hours of sleep per night. My wife insisted that I try Dr. Yu Xu. I was skeptical but willing to give it a shot. After the first session my 4 hours of sleep turned into 5 to 6 hours of sleep. As treatment sessions continued, the quality and duration of my sleep improved. Today I am getting 7 hours of restful sleep nightly. I no longer have bags or dark circles under my eyes and feel energetic. I highly recommend Dr. Xu for those who just can't get a good night's sleep.
RVVerified patient
Alex was super helpful and was able to address lots of built-up tension I had in the shoulders and upper back. I really appreciated the massage therapy before the acupuncture and felt great afterward. He is also super nice and easy to talk to. Great office and looking forward to future treatments.
July 2, 2026Judson L.Verified patient
The provider was very thorough and an active listener. He explained the treatment plan and what I should expect. I appreciate the time he took and the care he exercised throughout the entire visit.
July 1, 2026Natascha D.Verified patient
I've never had so much time taken to massage muscle tension that has been plaguing me for years. Even before any needles were introduced, my body was thoroughly prepared. I walked away feeling a little heady, but within a couple of hours felt much better and my pain was gone. Looking forward to my next visit.

Amazing experience, almost completely relieved my lumbar spine issue and glute pain with only a few sessions. Dr. Xu was nice and patient. My to-go massage therapist in the future.
May 1, 2026Xiangru L.Verified patient
I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit. Dr. Xu greeted me front door with a huge smile and warm handshake. He was able to discover the source of my complaints quickly although the process never felt rushed. The treatment itself was quite relaxing and would have fallen asleep but, I forgot to leave my phone behind. I am looking forward to my next sessions with expectations of great things to come.
April 10, 2026Gary W.Verified patient
I really, really enjoyed my visit. This was my first time seeing an acupuncturist and having this treatment done, and the Doctor went in with a great explanation of how the process would work. We did an initial examination, and again, he explained everything as he went - super helpful. We then started the procedure with a deep muscle loosening and it was amazing - even now typing this, I feel my body responding positively to today’s appointment. We ended with the acupuncture, and I don’t know why I was so worried! This was amazing, and I’ve already booked again for next weekend.
LEVerified patient
This was my first time visiting an acupuncturist - and it won't be my last!
From my first call to set up my appointment, to the time I left my consultation Dr. Alex exhibited nothing but warmth, professionalism, and thoughtfulness.
He truly listened to my issues and understands how all of our body systems work together.
Full disclosure, he doesn't play around with the deep tissue muscle activation. No pain, no gain.
AAVerified patient
This was my first time getting acupuncture, and Dr. Alex made sure he explained everything very clearly and slowly to ensure that I understood. I felt like the session was very relaxing and helpful, and he definitely had a plan for me moving forward, which I found to be hopeful ?I am looking forward to being treated and my future appointments.

Excellent provider! Dr. Alex is friendly and very knowledgeable. He is a great listener and was able to identify core issues of my illness right away. It is pain to drive about an hour for this appointment from DC to Rockville, but it was very worthwhile. Thank you, Dr. Alex.
Muhammad Tariq K.Verified patient
Absolutely fantastic provider. He was calm and knowledgeable and explained everything so that I could understand it. He spent more time than I would think most provider would. I recommend him to anyone who is new to TCM and acupuncture.

Amazing experience! He's very knowledgeable and in tune to his patient needs. I will continue to receive treatment from him on a regular basis.

After just one session with Dr. Alex, my jaw pain and clicking has essentially completely subsided. I loved my results and the attention and care that went into the treatment. I would highly recommend!
November 29, 2025Gillian O.Verified patient
Had my first consult/session with Dr. Alex Xu in October of this year and it was great. He has perfect bedside manner, very professional and extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I felt like I was heard and my needs were understood. He checked in to make sure the pressure was ok several times. It was my first time visiting an acupuncturist in general and it was such a pleasant experience. I have trouble sleeping and neck, shoulder and upper back issues but after the first visit I felt great and rested. I’ve been back several times since and it’s always a great experience!
NSVerified patient
Appointments well worth my 1hr drive. Grateful for the care of Dr. Alex and Dr. Jenny helping to support my digestive, back, and joint concerns.

Dr Alex Wu clearly understood my issues as he listened well. I knew I needed an acupuncturist who could also massage where needed. Dr. Wu was the doctor I needed.

Dr. Yu Xu was so very sweet. He held my hand because I was nervous and he explained everything to me. It was very detailed and I can't wait to go back. He let my husband sit with me which added another layer of comfort. The office was clean and beautiful. The atmosphere is soothing.
November 28, 2025Lauren J.Verified patient

great everything thanks
November 19, 2025Michael C.Verified patient
First appointment was great and very thorough. The doctor asked a lot of questions to get the bigger picture of any/all issues I'm having. Communicated lots of things he noticed and how we can address those areas. Then the therapeutic massage and acupuncture helped immensely! And the pain lessened quickly during the therapeutic massage & acupuncture. Looking forward to my next appointment and getting even more relief from my neck pain.
November 3, 2025Melissa B.Verified patient
I’ve been seeing Dr.Alex for a little over 3 weeks now for my sciatica, and his massages along with acupuncture have helped me since my first visit. As someone who’s been suffering with back pain for years, this is the only treatment that has worked. My pain continues to reduce each visit, and Dr.Alex always checks in to see how I’m progressing so we can focus on other problem areas. I highly recommend him!
ROVerified patient
Dr. Alex was great. Very knowledgeable and excellent communicator, very patiently explaining steps and options to me.
The visit was comfortable and complete, the treatment was fantastic. Very recommended!

This was my first time trying acupuncture and it was an amazing experience. Dr. Xu is amazing. Very kind and helpful. I can’t wait to come back.
ECVerified patient
I have been coming for acupuncture and massage therapy to Jenny for over 15 years. The addition of Alex to the practice added another very qualified practitioner. Both Jenny and Alex always listen to my concerns and strive diligently to alleviate my symptoms. I feel very fortunate to have found two individuals who are so dedicated to helping their clients and highly recommend this practice for acupuncture and massage therapy.
LCVerified patient
Dr. Yu is an extraordinary acupuncturist whose skill, knowledge, and genuine care elevate every visit into an experience that feels deeply restorative and transformative. From the moment you enter the clinic, it’s clear that Dr. Yu prioritizes the well-being of each patient with unmatched attentiveness. Every step of the process is thoroughly explained, ensuring you understand not only what is happening during treatment but also the reasons behind each technique and approach. Dr. Yu listens intently, asks thoughtful questions, and tailors each session to your unique needs, creating a personalized healing plan that addresses both physical and energetic imbalances. The precision and depth of expertise displayed are beyond impressive, and the compassionate, calming presence makes you feel entirely safe and supported. Dr. Yu not only treats symptoms but fosters profound well-being that resonates long after leaving the office.
RCVerified patient
Dr. Xu is extremely knowledgeable about his methods and overall practice, he explains things thoroughly and is a very pleasant, warm person who listens attentively. I had my first session and felt so much better! He identified the areas where I have blockage. I look forward to my next appointment. Oh as part of the treatment, the massage is not your typical massage! You won't be disappointed!
DMYVerified patient
I had been struggling with chronic fatigue and persistent headaches for months, and after hearing positive feedback, I decided to visit Dr. Xu’s office. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the soothing atmosphere and calming music playing in the background. The office has a very serene vibe, which immediately set me at ease.
Dr. Xu’s massage therapy was absolutely amazing! You can tell he really knows what he's doing, as the techniques he used were top-notch and extremely effective in relieving tension. I also received acupuncture treatment during my visit, which paired perfectly with the massage. The combination of both treatments worked wonders, and I noticed a significant improvement in my headache after just one session.
I’m so glad I decided to give this place a try. If you're dealing with chronic fatigue or headaches, I highly recommend Dr. Xu – it's definitely worth the visit!
LSVerified patient
I’ve been dealing with persistent neck and shoulder pain for years, so finding the right doctor was a priority. Dr. Xu exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I walked into his office, I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere—it’s clear that patient comfort is a top priority here.
Dr. Xu was not only patient and attentive, but he took the time to thoroughly explain the underlying causes of my pain and the treatment options available. His approach felt personalized, and I really appreciated how he answered all of my questions.
As for the results? Spectacular! I’ve seen significant improvement in my pain levels after just a few visits. The treatments have truly made a difference, and I feel better than I have in years.
I’m definitely coming back, and I highly recommend Dr. Xu to anyone seeking relief from chronic pain. Worth every trip!

I’m new to Chinese deep tissue massage and acupuncture, but Alex
quickly understood my hip issues. He combined acupuncture and deep
tissue work to relieve my pain and even correct my walking gait. I’m
amazed by the results and truly grateful for his expertise and care.
Highly recommend!!
CBVerified patient
I will highly recommend family and friends to see Alex and Jenny. Both are skillful and thorough working on my problem with neck, spine and hips were out of alignment. It is amazing that I can see the difference after all treatments. I am mostly grateful to both with loving and caring to their patients. Thank you very much.

Of course I will go back, the doctor is very nice, intelligent and honest, specially honest; I have been seeing other doctors and they just want to get as much money as they can, but this doctor really works and tells you exactly what you need and he helps you
