Hope Spring Acupuncture Bellevue

This is more than a practice - its a family. I came to Naomi for lower back pain I incurred during my prep for a stage musical. I could barely walk, let alone dance. After seeing significant improvement in pain and mobility after my first appointment, I decided to continue sessions, for the duration of my rehearsals and performances. Im certain that those visits, along with the aid of my physical therapist, are the reason I was able to complete the run of the show. From the office staff to the practitioners, the care and kindness of the Hope Spring Wellness team was always on display. Including the entire office coming out to see me perform in the show. I enthusiastically recommend this practice.

My son and I have both seen excellent results from our treatments there. He was dealing with some bowel issues and stress, and after a few sessions, hes doing so much better. Seeing his improvement, I decided to try it out for my back pain and leg soreness. It really helped, and Im feeling more energetic!The staff at HopeSpring is super welcoming and really knows their job. Each appointment always has a chill vibe, making you feel right at home.

Doctor Lin’s holistic approach is helping me so much with my healing process. When I first came to hopespring wellness, I was in a lot of pain due to injury. Thanks to Dr. Lin’s acupuncture sessions and herbal medicine, I’m on the road to getting better. I also have to mention how great the staff is, starting with Yuliya at the front desk who makes you feel welcome as soon as you enter the clinic. Thanks Doctor Lin and team!

Hope Spring has great doctors and team. My wife, kid, and I have been getting acupuncture on targeted relief and/or general qi realignment with good results.

Dr. Lin and his team are welcoming and helpful. This is my first time doing acupuncture and it has been pleasant. I decided to do acupuncture for stress management and to boost fertility. Every time I leave I feel relaxed, calm, and energized. I appreciate Dr. Lin’s insight and recommendations for me.

I love this place. David Lin has taken care of me and my family since 2015. This year we have started the weight loss program with huge success. I recommend to my friends and co-workers all the time. Do yourself a favor and try it out. Great place and they really know what they are doing.

I’ve been working with Dr. Lin (acupuncture) and Vincent (massage) for several months now to help resolve migraines that I’ve had for years. Vincent has a PT background and is very knowledgeable. His massages are as therapeutic as they are relaxing. I usually wear a t-shirt and sweats. Dr Lin does a great job of gauging my symptoms and explaining things in a way that make sense. My migraines have scaled down in intensity and frequency.Highly recommend both!

Dr. Naomi Floyds acupuncture treatment was truly exceptional! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at ease. Dr. Floyds expertise and gentle approach made the entire experience incredibly effective. I left feeling rejuvenated and with noticeable improvements in my well-being. Highly recommend her services to anyone seeking top-notch acupuncture care!

I have been suffering from sciatica pain in one of my legs due to herniated discs and other issues in my spine for the past weeks. I tried everything in terms of pain killers, oral and injectable steroids, anti-inflammatories, ointments, braces, special pillows etc. I started having excruciating, drilling pain during the night, which kept me awake for a few nights in a row. When not even Morphine would kick in, I felt desperate, and honestly starting fearing that I would die because of the lack of sleep. After the first acupuncture round, with the regular dose of Morphine I managed to sleep for 5 hours uninterruptedly and dozed off for another 3 hours after another half -doze of Morphine. After a second round of acupuncture the following day, I went completely pain-free to bed, slept with no pain killers for 6 hours and another 3 hours with half-doze of Morphine (so I basically cut my dosage by 2/3 by the second night). After the third acupuncture session I didnt need any pain medication for the night. To accomplish this in just 3 consecutive days is nothing short of a miracle. Kudos to Dr. Lin, who is the most knowledgeable, most personable and pleasant acupuncturist there is. He also prescribed Chinese herbs, a stir-in powder, bathing herbs, and used Moxibustion every time, which improves circulation, reduces inflammation, balances out hormones, detoxifies the liver etc. I leave the practice feeling relaxed and more grounded. Another godsent intervention was that of their amazing massage therapist, Vincent, who on the second day made a manual adjustment/ manipulation and body assessment (not massage) with his pleasant, warm hands, which felt truly healing- at first all my pain was stirred up and then, within an hour, by repeatedly going over the achy spots, all the pain was miraculously calmed down, until it was completely gone. That was the day when I went completely pain-free to bed. I coupled these treatments with physical therapy. I love this practice. Its the cleanest, prettiest practice Ive seen, they offer warm jujube tea every day, and the front desk lady and office manager, Yuliya, is a gem. Theres no reason I would ever want to go to a different acupuncture place. I wholeheartedly recommend Hope Spring Acupuncture.

I had 6 weekly facial treatment with Dr. Naomi. As a result the skin around eyes lifted, face looks refreshed. Every visit is a great pleasure. Great place!

Highly recommend Dr. Lin and his team of specialists who provide comprehensive care ranging from acupuncture, massage, facials to natural medicine. They are very knowledgeable, thoughtful, and sincere. They will make you feel like family. One of Dr. Lin’s acupuncture specialities is fertility support, so I highly recommend him if you are hoping to become pregnant or maintain a healthy pregnancy. He is very knowledgeable.

Dr. Lin is knowledgeable, caring and understanding practitioner who has a holistic approach to your health. My condition improved significantly just after a few acupuncture treatments. Overall great experience, the treatment is very helpful and the staff is very courteous. I highly recommend this practice.

I was having pretty serious tummy issues because of a food poisoning incident. I was put on Omeprazole for two weeks. The symptoms did relieve but were not entirely gone so I decided to go with a more holistic approach. Ive heard a lot of good things about Dr. Lin so went ahead and booked an appointment. The visit to Dr. Lin was a very pleasant experience. Hes a very caring healer that listens patiently. He explained to me the issues that my body was encountering internally and what the treatment will look like and how itll help me heal, not just to rid of the symptoms but to get better as a whole.After the first session I was already feeling better and the dull pain and nausea were gone. My appetite came back that night and I was sleeping better. The coughing and sneezing that Id had for more than a month (I got a cold from my nephew and it just lingered around) went away in about three days. Right now Im done the second session and Im feeling great.Im super grateful especially after two weeks of feeling very sick. I highly recommend Dr. Lin and his very kind and friendly team.

Great clinic! I have been working with Dr. Lin to manage some chronic conditions and the usual assortment of back +shoulder pain from work and life. Overall Im happy with the results - I can feel immediate and lasting pain relief. Plus I sleep better. I also like that Dr. Lin takes time to explain things to me. Note, I see my GP regularly. I find acupuncture to be a great supplement, not a replacement. Recommend

Very caring doctors, they listen and take time to educate me on acupuncture, why and how in detail. Very friendly staff. Clean and comfortable treatment rooms. They also do everything to fit into my calendar. I am going there to manage my stress and sleep better - after the first session, I started sleeping much better. Stress is work on progress. :) They have some excellent offerings for herbal teas at a reasonable price too. I got calming, energy and digestive ones - they taste great!

I have been going to Dr Lin once a week for stress and hormone management. I suffered from insomnia due to work stress. With Seattle weather I’m feeling cold constantly. After three acupuncture treatments I saw significant improvements. He listens and explains everything well. The clinic is modern, clean, and friendly. I feel like going to spa rather than a clinic. Highly recommended!

HopeSpring Wellness changed my life for the better! I went to see Dr. Naomi Floyd with debilitating tailbone pain after trying many things, including physical therapy. Within one month, I was able to sit without a doughnut pillow, and within a few months, my tailbone pain was completely gone! I was shocked at the quick and effective results. Dr. Naomi is so incredible and talented. Ive learned so much from her too. She, and the entire staff, are very kind, thoughtful, and helpful. Thank you for providing such a clean, warm, and welcoming space. Even though I went to acupuncture for one specific thing, I see overall benefits in my general health and energy levels.

I was recommended to Dr. Lin through a family friend to see if acupuncture could help with my extreme anxiety, high stress levels and sleeplessness. Within seconds of walking into the facility you can feel a sense of relief from the relaxing decor and music playing in the background. Dr. Lin was able to diagnose my anxiety and with a few acupuncture needles as well as using a process called moxibustion I have to say I have never been so relaxed and eventually fell asleep at the table. I will am definitely a believe and will be back soon Dr lin!

Ive never had acupuncture before, and only had herbal medicine a few times in my life. In the last few years Im feeling colder and colder in the winter in Pacific Northwest, including my hands and feet. And my digestive system is a bit weaker than normal.Each time after Dr. David Lins acupuncture my body feels so much warmer, and with his herbal medicine Im also improving gradually. His advice on life style such as diet and exercise opens a window for me to see things from traditional medicines perspective.Most importantly, I can feel Dr. David Lin treats me like family, not just a patient. Im lucky to have him take care of me. It is a very special journey.

Dr Lin is an amazing doctor. I was struggling with stress and anxiety and Dr Lin helped me a lot through acupuncture and herbal medicine. As my partner put it - he found my switch off button! I am now much calmer, more relaxed and sleep so much better!

I am in treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome and I consider my visits to 1st Choice Acupuncture to be a very vital part of my recovery. Prior to coming in I had little sustained energy to be on my feet for more than small amounts of time during the day, and exertion was difficult. After beginning treatment I am seeing improvements in my energy, which is exciting. Moreover my digestion, hormones, and mood are more balanced, and my body aches and pain and feelings of great heaviness each day have also decreased. I consider Dr. David Lin to be a very dedicated, knowledgeable, and caring healer. Dr. Naomi Umehara Floyd whom I have seen once is also excellent. The clinic is a very calming and nurturing place to visit, and Maggie in the front office is always friendly and caring as well. I consider it a huge blessing to have found Dr. Lin and 1st Choice Acupuncture and look forward to continuing care here until I am fully recovered.

Dr. Lin is absolutely the BEST. He is so patient and attentive and truly listens. Dr. Lin takes a holistic approach to my symptoms and really cares about my progress. I have had headaches for as long as I can remember, and with only a couple of treatments, Im already seeing improvement. Dr. Lin is extremely easy to talk to about both physical and mental health issues. There are also other wonderful providers in the clinic (such as a massage therapist and cosmetologist), that work closely with Dr. Lin. The office staff is so friendly and helpful as well! If you are trying to decide on an acupuncture clinic, look no further. You will not be disappointed.

If youre struggling with some cold feet & hands under Washington weather or infertility issues, Id recommend Dr. Lin no doubt. After about two months of treatment including acupuncture and moxi, I became pregnant without IVF and feeling so much warmer during winter. Plus, Dr. Lin is very communicative, supportive, and knows how to listen to his patients. You wont feel like a number at Hope Spring Wellness.

I had a miscarriage before getting help from Dr Lin and the Hopespring team. The acupuncture and herbal supplements helped me to heal and recover from the loss, and further nurtured and stabilized the next pregnancy, especially at the 1st trimester. Now I am a happy mom with cute and restless baby!!

TL;DR: I got into a nasty head on collision. Hopespring Wellness, and its staff, have done wonders for my recovery and everything about the clinic has been positive.I seldom-if ever-write reviews, but I have to say that I sincerely recommend this clinic. They have been my introduction into acupuncture and TCM. And after only a few visits, I dont feel the need to find another practitioner. All of the staff Ive encountered are professional, knowledgeable, and helpful; The facility is kept clean and organized; and thus far the treatments and medicine Ive received have had a positive impact on my recovery and wellbeing.I recently got into a head-on collision, and the chiropractor Ive been seeing recommended Hopespring Wellness to assist in recovering. So, in an attempt to not miss any more work and heal faster I reached out and scheduled an appointment. While they dont take on patients using auto-insurance claims, they do accept most major insurance providers. I bit the bullet and decided to try it. One of the better decisions Ive made in my life. The entire experience has been great; and Dr. Lin has helped, in a massive way, speed up my recovery. Whether it be from pain management to accelerating the healing process. The doctor and supporting staff have been there and performed exceptionally. Every treatment or process is well explained and I walk away from the practice feeling well informed and in an improved state. They have also helped heal non-accident related issues Ive been having. If youre ever unsure whether they can help you, simply ask. The scope of health related problems the staff can treat or alleviate is vast.Whether it be for personal health, an injury, or quality of life I believe this clinic can help you address those concerns. They also offer massage and aesthetician services, if youre in the need for them. I will continue to give them my patronage as well as recommend them to anyone I know who might benefit from their practice.-CW

I found this clinic on Yelp and Im glad I took everyones advice, if I could give Dr. Lin more than 5 stars I would. I noticed a difference after my 2nd acupuncture session and will continue to see Dr. Lin in the future because of the positive effects acupuncture has on my health and well-being. If youre in the area for acupuncture, I strongly recommend seeing Dr. Lin and his team. Ive seen other acupuncturists in the past and will say Dr. Lin is by far my favorite, hes extremely knowledgeable, patient and kind. The herbal medicines might not be the best tasting, but the positive effects Ive been experiencing are well worth it.

I am brand new to Acupuncture but recently found myself in need of new forms of relaxation. Through a friend I was referred to Dr. Lin at 1st Choice. From the first time I walked through the door, he and Kat the receptionist have been amazing. They always make me feel comfortable about the science behind the treatments along with what to expect.Due to other factors, I am less sold on the herbal medicine but have never felt pressured by the office to take them. I would HIGHLY suggest using 1st Choice Acupuncture for newbies or anyone that has undergone treatment before. I will never forget my first session when I stepped off the bed and felt like I weighed 500 lbs (my body was so relaxed).

They were able to fit me into their busy schedule and I am so very grateful. I had sudden pain throughout my joints just a few days prior with no known cause. I was able to see Dr. Naomi and she interestingly said that pain is not my primary problem. She brought up other health issues that I knew I had, but never really correlated to my current pain. She didnt focus on my pain today, but I somehow left feeling less pain.

Ive been in twice now to see Dr. Lin. Before my treatment I was feeling quite down and lethargic. I initially went in to get help with my Asthma and Allergies. After my first visit/treatment I felt like my old self, emotionally, and energetically. The next day my wife noticed a huge difference in my overall well being and mentioned that she was worried that she was not going to see the person she married again, but that I was back! After my second treatment it is only getting better, and I cant wait to continue to progress into my old self and health.

I was recommended by my doctor at The Foot and Ankle Center in Kirkland to go to 1st Choice Acupuncture for joint and foot treatments. I have been going for 5 months now, seeing Dr. David Lin, and am so pleased with treatments and the service they so kindly provide there. My treatments have resulted in lesser pain, loss of inflammation, increase in flexibility, and ability to continue my daily activities. I would highly recommend this place and am so happy to have found it myself.

I had never tried acupuncture until I went to 1st Choice Acupuncture. I was a little skeptical at first until after my first session. I have dealt with chronic sinus issues for over 10 years. Never was there a day that I didnt have to take allergy medicine. After my first session I could tell a difference because all of a sudden I was breathing without taking meds. I have not had any allergy meds in over 3 weeks which for me is a miracle. I highly recommend this facility and cannot say enough good about David!. He truly knows what he is doing and I will always be grateful for his guidance and direction about acupuncture.

This has been my first experience using acupuncture and it has been a very positive one. I broke my wrist a few months ago, and once the cast came off, I was looking for a way to help recover its flexibility and strength, as well as to ease the pain during the healing process. After just a few weeks of treatment, I am well ahead of the typical recovery schedule with no lingering pain. The facility itself offers a serene atmosphere and the practitioners are caring and gentle. Definitely would recommend trying it!

This place is incredible for both acupuncture and massage - I simply cant recommend it enough! Ive been coming in for a few months, and their treatments have really changed my life. I came in for pain that was unresolvable from a western medicine perspective, but acupuncture from Dr. Lin addressed it within a single visit and has since resolved my issue. The wholistic approach to care and use of Chinese herbal medicine have really impacted my self-care habit for the better.Theyve also added massage to their services recently - and Rene is excellent, I cant say enough good things about him. Ive had massages in the past, but they dont seem to even come close to what he offers. He is communicative, knowledgable, and extremely professional. As a beginner to this therapy, I often defer to his judgement in areas of focus - and I have yet to be disappointed. He knew to target and pay special attention to areas that I wasnt aware were holding tension.1st Choice makes it easy to integrate both these transformative practices into your care routine, and I plan to continue coming back!

“I came into see Dr. Lin at a time in my life where I was experiencing anxiety and chronic insomnia. Dr. Lin was so kind he took his time and listened to what I was telling him, did the treatment and suggested I take some herbs he could make up for me. At this point I would do anything to sleep and, it worked I am sleeping. Over the years I have tried absolutely everything to help with the insomnia, I would highly recommend Dr. Lin he is absolutely wonderful and very good at his job!.”

Thank you Dr.Lin for your dedication and care. I see difference in as early as 3 visits. I dont need reading glasses now !!My sleep quality is best in years !!I have excellent appetite and energy.I find a hope to have the health I desire.I strongly encourage Accupunture under Dr. Lins care. He has years of experience that gives quick results. His compassion and dedication, listening to patients needs stand out the best.

I have advanced arthritis in my lower back & in both knees producing level 10+ pain. I dont like taking prescription drugs but caved due to the pain. Was on Celebrix & Voltaren to alleviate my symptoms. Subsequently, was told acupuncture would help with pain & can assist in the healing process. Gave it a try since my health plan covered up to 6 (12 next yr.) annual appointments. Amazing! After 3 sessions + herbs they provided for pain control, Im no long on my meds! I highly recommend Dr. Naomi at 1st Choice Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine. She is very gentle, explains their process in detail, & answered all of my questions. A great education on one of the oldest medical treatments (2,500 yrs) in existence. A much healthier way to treat your ailments naturally!

I went to Dr Lin to treat my stiff neck and shoulders. The stiffness gave me poor blood circulation to my head that I woke up a couple of times at night with headaches. I am not a fan of needles; however, I managed to give it a try. Those tiny needles did relax my neck and shoulders. I could sleep well at nights now. It was surprising to know that the needles went into my lower legs in order to treat my neck and shoulders.

I would have never considered acupuncture before as I have had issues with needles, but after a recommendation from my ND and long time pain in my hands I decided I wanted to try it. I was amazed that during the first session with the needles in the pain was completely gone, although it did come back the next day as I was told was likely for a long term condition. In the beginning of the third session Dr. Lin and I talked about the extreme sensitivity of the needles in my feet. He agreed although the feet would be the first choice he would try my left hip area. It seemed to also work and was a much more pleasant experience for me. I would say to you it is worth considering!

Dr. Lin has been a lifesaver for me. I am 5 1/2 months pregnant and suffering from migraines and back pain. My treatments have helped tremendously. Not only are my migraines under control, but I am sleeping much better do to the back pain relief. I highly recommend Dr. Lin. Beautiful office and great staff. Thank you Dr. Lin & Staff.

I did two sessions of acupuncture, which significantly reduced my shoulder pain and back pain.

Dr. Lin is your answer to better health with no drugs or chemicals. If you have ever thought about Acupuncture but was hesitant for one reason or another, dont be in pain any longer, go and see Dr. Lin. He is highly skilled and you wont believe the results and how much better you can move without discomfort no matter what you are suffering from.

I had skin issue and also got Bell’s palsy on my right side face. Dr. Lin helps me to get my skin healthier and also brighter. And I am keep progressing on my face to become more normal function now.Thank you for getting my face back. 👍

Back in May I was in a car crash with major whiplash. Since then, Ive been to a few different acupuncturists, and Ive realized every therapist is different. Dr. Lin is very passionate and knowledgeable about acupuncture, as well as professional with his patients.

I had a great experience during my pregnancy.I experienced a sudden bleeding at my second trimester due to a low lying placenta. A few days after the acupancture treatment, my bleeding stopped and my placenta moved up to where it was supposed to be by the next ultrasound.I also had a breech baby at my 32w. I came here twice a week to do the acupuncture & moxibustion and the baby successfully flipped by 36w!Ofcourse, I tried other things along with acupancture - heat pad, execise, moxa at home, herbal medicine etc. But whats most helpful is that I get to relax and feel my blood flowing through the body during the treatment.Dr. David really emphasizes the importance of relaxing the body and mind and guide you through mindfulness during his treatment. This was very helpful and worked well for my situation.

I had severe period cramps and the really sweet lady was very accommodating to help me with a same-day appointment. My pain went away during the acupuncture session by Dr. Lin.

I have been here for countless times. Im a very picky person so I always do lot of research before I go for an Acupuncture. I always choose the place where I feel comfortable and the doctor who can really understand my situation. I love their neat and cozy environment and super friendly staff and doctor!

I come to 1st Choice Acupuncture during my break. I do driving for living ,and I work long hours. Acupuncture helps me to relax and retain Chi. Overall, I felt more energized and focused after treatment. I highly recommended this place .

Liked the cleanliness and covid precautions being followed. Gives a feel one is safe in going for a massage here. The massage itself was good and the therapist knew his job. Courteous and welcoming staff.

Great service and genuine people who know what they are doing. Theyve helped me with issues of anxiety and sleep, aiding in my recovery and making sure to address all concerns.Thank you!
