“I have had pain and tingling from my neck to my shoulder and down my shoulder blade. It has been going on for seven months. I have been to physical therapy, orthopedic surgeons and referred to pain management. I have family members that have used acupuncture and worked for them. I decided to give it a try before more drugs or potential surgery. I received a recommendation from a friend about Emily and her practice. I am on seventh treatment and can tell it is working. The frequency and intensity have diminished greatly. I have become a believer and highly recommend Emily. She is very professional and knowledgeable in TCM. This has been a quality of life changer.”-M.D.

Emily was so kind and always listened to/addressed my concerns. I know I will be back. It is unfortunate my insurance doesn’t cover acupuncture or I would still be a loyal weekly client. Thank you for everything Emily. See you soon!”-C.F.
My first experience with acupuncture treatment has resulted in astounding results. I’ve finally found relief from lifelong chronic head and shoulder pain.

She is very thorough and explains what and how things work when you meet, from there she takes into consideration your concerns and tailors treatment to best suit your needs. I initially started going to help with lingering symptoms of Covid. I believe it has helped clear up most of the symptoms!

Overall it has been a great help to me!”-M.A.

She explains treatment and is extremely thorough. The facility is immaculate. Prior to seeing Emily, I was getting pain injections in my neck. They only helped temporarily. After my first treatment, I noticed a big difference. I have continued treatment and the pain is almost gone and I feel great! I’ve stopped the injections. Regarding the menopause symptoms, I’m having fewer hot flashes and am sleeping better, both of which I’ve struggled with for 15 years. I would highly recommend TCM and Emily. You won’t be sorry!”-D.E.

“I just had my 3rd visit to Michigan TCM Wellness Center. I’ve been suffering from Plantar Fasciitis for close to 2 months before scheduling my first apt. The first apt. I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect. Emily was very kind and knowledgeable which reassured me. She explained the whole process to me and gave me helpful information of what I should be doing at home to help my situation. One thing was I should be using heat not ice like I have been. She was right. Today I actually left The Wellness Center with no pain walking out of the office today. Boy that felt good! I hope I continue down this road to recovery. Thank you!”-S.R.
“I am beyond grateful that I found Emily. I suffer from severe Endometriosis and while living in California, acupuncture was the only thing that really helped me. When I moved back to Michigan, I spent months and months working with regular doctors trying to control the Endo and they only made things worse. When I found Emily, I was beyond stressed out, in a lot of pain and dangerously anemic. After my first session, I felt like a human being again. She actually listened and focused on what was really going on with me. After just a few months, my anemia has improved and my Endo pain is managed. I highly recommend acupuncture and Emily to anyone in the area who is dealing with pain or hormone issues.”-K.B.
“I was nervous to try acupuncture, but after being told by a vascular doctor that nothing else could be done for my painful legs and feet, I decided to give it a try – I am so happy I did. Emily made me feel welcome and after listening to my issues, thoroughly explained her treatment plan for me. I am doing so much better, able to walk my dog again with no pain, and I am able to do so with no pain meds.”-M.W.
“I have been benefiting from the health benefits of acupuncture from Emily for almost two years now. My chronic neck pain has gotten much better with acupuncture. I’ve had such a rewarding experience that I recently had one of my teenage daughter who struggles with migraines begin seeing Emily. As a parent I completely trust Emily in the care & attention to detail that she will provide in my daughters treatment. If I could have given a six star rating I would have done it! Thank you Emily!”-C.J.

“I researched and decided to try acupuncture for additional therapy in the healing process of a fractured tibial and fibial plateau. 5 1/2 months later I still was in great amount of pain that would fluctuate throughout different areas of my leg, walking any distances or being on my leg a lot during the day has still been very painful. I was still using my cane for assistance different times throughout the day as well. Although I have just started my series of treatments, my body, leg specifically, responded so well resulting in my pain level going from a 4 -7 on a daily basis to what I would say was less than a 1, and then it’s not really even pain that I’ve had, more so just stiffness within the knee area. I have been so optimistically excited about how well this treatment has worked. I will continue through my series of treatments to give my body a chance to recover completely. I have not been able to stop talking about Emily and her professionalism, and clearly knowledge in the practice of acupuncture.”-C.P

“I feel blessed after calling at least 5 googled acupuncture offices, that I scheduled an appointment with Emily at the Michigan TCM Wellness Center in Utica.
Emily spoke in length to me on the phone and I scheduled my first appointment with her. I filled out paperwork in advance and at my first appointment, I felt like I met a long-lost friend. She is so welcoming, her soothing voice is so calming and she spent a good amount of time with me going over medical information and treatments. I have had acupuncture in the past after a drinking driver accident, but we moved 40 miles north to Clinton Township.
Her facility is calming, pleasant and relaxing upon stepping in the door and each treatment room is very clean. I am not afraid of needles, but believe me when I say, you do not feel the very thin needles enter your skin surface.
I have been greatly helped by her gentle touch and acupuncture. It calms my pain down so I can enjoy my retirement days.
I verbally have been telling everyone I know to call and schedule an appointment, you will not be sorry!”-L.L.
“My family and I have been Emily’s clients for almost 10 years. She has provided us with treatments for autoimmune disorders, knee and joint pain, muscle, and back pain to name a few.

During the Covid-19 epidemic she has provided and maintained a safe comfortable environment for the treatment of her clients.”-R.G.

She is knowledgeable and the overall experience is very relaxing.”-S.V.
“I’ve had a lot of problems with my shoulder over the years from bursitis. Almost any exertion caused a flare up. The positive results I’ve had from acupuncture at Michigan TCM Wellness Center have been amazing! I’ve been able to lift and move heavy things recently and still feel good – no flare up! I couldn’t imagine doing this in the past without having a flare up. I highly recommend Michigan TCM Wellness Center.”-C.L.
“I highly recommend Emily and Michigan TCM Wellness Center! I started working with Emily in early February after I had surgery to remove an infection in my bone. I have no doubt that my excellent recovery is due in large part to the acupuncture treatments I received from Emily. She is very professional and friendly and an expert in her field. After each treatment I noticed a significant improvement in my physical and mental health. As a health care professional myself, I have referred and will continue to refer many of my patients to Michigan TCM Wellness Center.”-L.R.

It is a sensational feeling that lasts for days in my case! Its a very calming atmosphere.”-N.H.
