Zen Acupuncture

Alex is a highly trustworthy practitioner with an amazing knowledge of alternative medicines. He will listen to your needs while providing fantastic therapeutic interventions and give you with the tools to maintain your health. Thanks Alex !

Alex is a true professional and sincerely cares about the health & wellbeing of his patients. He is the only acupuncturist I will go to for targeting muscle trigger points.There are many physiotherapy clinics that offer acupuncture, but some are trained in a weekend course and claim to have expertise in this modality - which is quite scary! Alex has over 2 years training in Japanese style acupuncture and is certified in Chinese medicine. He knows his stuff! Alex has also helped me with advice on supplements, gua sha (graston) treatment and other therapies. On top of that he is a walking encyclopedia!Highly recommend.

Alex at Zen Acupuncture is an extremely friendly and knowledgeable practitioner. He has helped alleviate my constant back pain that made going to work an everyday struggle. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an acupuncture.

Alex is an extraordinary individual, with an amazing CV. He is highly recommended for his professional attitude and wealth of knowledge in practicing acupuncture and shiatsu massage therapies for relief of variety of painful conditions. We highly recommend Zen Acupuncture in Cambridge.

I have been seeing Alex for a multitude of reasons over the last few years and will continue as I have found great relief from his prescribed herbs and acupuncture. Alex always takes the time to listen to my concerns and makes connections I did not consider between symptoms and ailments. I would highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for an experienced, professional and knowledgeable practitioner. I look forward to my appointments for both the relief and the knowledge I always seem to gain.

Alex's knowledge of alternative medicine and preventive tools is astounding, I haven't been sick since taking his advice 4 years ago! He is very thorough, explains everything clearly with tons of support from his extensive studies and experience; it is obvious that this is his passion.The session itself was wonderful, there is a profound relaxation effect from the treatment (I forgot what it felt like to be that relaxed). Alex has a unique method compared to what I've experienced; instead of applying the acupuncture all at once, he is very conscious and needles one point at a time, keeping you in the loop. It is the most reassuring and comfortable experience I have had with acupuncture (I have seen 4 different practitioners, who would put a bunch of needles in and leave you alone in the room. I definitely prefer Alex's method, where he stays with you the whole time).The increase in circulation throughout the body is also very evident and has helped me to heal a shoulder injury and relieve my back pain.Afterwards Alex offers lots of sound advice on how to get the most out of the treatment with supplements and proper diet.If you have a chance to visit Zen Acupuncture, I highly recommend it!

I've been using Alex's therapy with success for multiple years. He is very knowledgeable and thorough. I like his step by step approach and methods that cured my muscle related issues and significantly reduced lower back related pain. I highly recommend to anyone with his/her acupuncture needs.

Alex is a very knowledgable, compassionate, and professional care provider in the areas of acupuncture and massage. He is well trained but also has a wealth of information that he has gained through self initiated research. Alex is highly recommended by people who have received treatment by him and I highly recommend him based on punctuality, quality of care, and service. I definitely feel that I get excellent care for what I pay.

It had been several years since I last tried acupuncture to treat nerve pain from a sore back. I'd had success with it before, but my practitioner was no longer around, so I searched for a new one and found Zen Acupuncture via Google. I read all of the (glowing) reviews and felt confident booking an appointment. I was exceptionally happy with the treatment I received from Alex. He seems passionate and knowledgeable about health from all aspects: nutrition, exercise, mental health etc. The administration of the needles was unique in that they were inserted and removed dynamically. I did not have needles inserted and then was left lying on a table. I much preferred Alex's method. Not surprisingly, I also received some immediate relief from nerve pain. Highly recommended.

I was an acupuncture skeptic prior to a treatment I had at Zen Acupuncture. Alex was very knowledgeable and explained the procedure to me fully so I would understand how it would work and what I would feel when he put the needles in at strategic points.Before the treatment I was unable to move my knee due to serve pain and immobility. After about one hour of treatment I was able to walk out of the office and down the stairs with little to no pain. He explained that the relief may only last a couple weeks but in fact it cured the problem completely.
