Traditional Chinese Medicine Healing Center

Terrible herb qualities they provide. Never trust in so called holistic doctors anymore.

healers. they fix stuff. sometimes western medicine doesn’t see the whole picture. do your body a favor and see these guys

This is really great medical healing facility. Also, Dr. Canfield is excellent. She listens and her acupuncture is really effective!

Dr. Lim is fantastic, with a great bedside manner. She’s helped me with a variety of things and I always leave feeling refreshed.

After spending more than 13K (went weekly for more than 1 year) out of pocket with Dr. Jing and Dr. Lu (my husband AND I both went), we were not able to get pregnant. The only time I did get pregnant is AFTER I stopped going to TCM. The crazy herbs they gave me I felt interferred with my fetrtility meds. After I stopped going to Dr. Jing and after I stopped taking the awful herbs, my egg retrieval numbers tripled. California Fertility Partner’s office recommended Dr. Jing and I think for us this was a HUGE mistake. I also went on the crazy gluten free and sugar free diet that Dr. Jing recommended as well. I did everything as she requested by the book (Basal Body Temp, exercise, daily herbs, crazy diet, etc.). Several doctors will tell you that if you don’t have Celiac Disease, going gluten free is not recommeneded. Last, I felt pressure to keep going to Dr. Jing as she would prey on my emotions stating to me several times «You will be pregnant in 3 months» but if you stop coming your egg quality will be bad. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend TCM at all. I had several friends going to Dr. Jing not one got pregnant while going to acupuncture with Dr. Jing.
Update — Recently, Dr. Jing responded to my post stating her treatment the year before helped me get pregnant. That’s absurd because I got pregnant SEVERAL years after seeing her. I don’t have any idea what she is talking about?! Seriously, the awful herbs and treatments seem hocus pocus to me. I also felt that the doctor preyed on my emotions and desperation of getting pregnant to suck tons of money out of us. This is just my opinion but I’m sure there’s many other opinions in favor of Dr. Jing.

I can’t say enough about TCM Healing Center, they were responsible for me being able to have my daughter. They are literally miracle workers. If you are suffering from infertility issues, this is the place to go. Dr. Jing and Dr. Lim are the best in the field.

Great healing center. Dr. Lu Biao is the best. Very professional, knowledgeable, and a very competent healer. So many times, I’ve been told by a western dr. that there is nothing they can do for my ailment, and then I go to see Dr. Lu, and I’m on the road to good health in days.
The staff is very friendly and professional as well.

I’ve been going here for years… and just love Dr. Lu. He’s such a knowledgeable and caring doctor with a gentle, warm soul. I always feel like he treats me like family, and his treatments are enormously healing. I’ve even referred my dad to him… so that’s saying something! Absolutely recommend him wholeheartedly!!!

I have been going to TCM for 20 years. Dr. Jing is simply the best. Her expertise has helped me through minor illnesses, a broken shoulder and general healthy living. I credit her with assisting in preparing my body for pregnancy with my daughter over 18 years ago. The TCM staff is knowledgable, friendly and attentive. I highly recommend TCM.

I so love Dr. Lu! He’s kind and empathic. I’ve had numerous health issues over the years, and he’s been such a comfort, a wise man to go to.
The staff are really on the ball. When i ask if I can have a room in the back (less noisy!), they accommodate with no fuss.
Finally, it’s so great that the herbs are freeze-​dried, that one doesn’t have to cook them (takes forever, makes your house smell funky.)
Would recommend TCM to anyone, and have!

«I’ve had rapid resolution of sleep, digestion, and hormonal issues with Dr. Canfield. I’ve seen other practitioners for 5 years on these issues with no lasting relief. I would definitely refer to Dr. Canfield.»

I’ve gotten such great results with Dr. Canfield’s work. I feel more balanced, calm and my skin has cleared up. Dr. Canfield is incredibly compassionate and patient!

I love this place particularly Dr Jing and Canfield.
I suffer from migraines and have tried many remedies. The initial weekly visits + teas truly balanced me and helped tremendously. I am now on a every 2 week maintenance treatment which is imperative. If I miss, a migraine is sure to sneak in! It important for them to keep me balance with acupuncture.
I have recommended friends and clients who also have become loyal regulars!

«The doctor healed a lower back pain within 24 hours enabling me to go on a long flight that would otherwise have been torture! Thank you.»

There are plenty of providers of Chinese medicine in and close to our neighborhood of Los Feliz, but my wife and I travel to Santa Monica because of the skills and expertise of Dr. Shiao ting-​Jing. We trust her and her associates to provide us with their knowledge and a caring environment to assist in the healing of our bodies, minds, and spirits.

Back in LA and back at TCM Chinese Medicine. I really think without this place my health would have deteriorated a lot. When I had pneumonia some years ago, the antibiotics just weren’t doing the trick (two doses). I went for acupuncture and Chinese medicinal tea and felt tremendously better.
Some people are afraid of needles and don’t want to try it. I once took a friend who went very grudgingly and came out saying she had never felt better in her life. Chinese acupuncture is centuries old and used to be (maybe still is?) the major medical treatment in China. The needles balance the electricity in the body, and the Chinese tea balances the body chemically. Many discomforts come because there is imbalance in the body and acupuncture + tea takes care of that.
I believe the future of western medicine will be to have an acupuncturist in every office. They can complement western medicine in a very effective way.
I get a treatment regularly. It’s not cheap, $ 110/​visit, but then it;s my health. And my health has improved mightily since I’ve been going to Dr. Jing. The initial visit is $ 250 but that’s a one time charge because a full medical history is taken.
Try it, I’m pretty sure you’ll like it. I’ve been going here since 1998 and wouldn’t go anywhere else.

I seen Dr. Jing for nearly 10 years for various ailments ranging from small things like acne to recently a very big thing which was breast cancer. Dr. Jing was instrumental in getting me through breast cancer — I had an early stage (stage 1/​stage 2) but an aggressive cancer (HER2 triple positive) and early on I asked Dr. Jing if there was any alternative remedies. She was very sensible and told me that for my kind of cancer I absolutely had to get the prescribed regimen (chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, Herceptin, tamixofen) BUT that she would work with me to minimize my side effects. (By the way I sought 4 second opinions from oncologists and they all concurred– I was treated by a truly excellent team at UCLA). I saw Dr. Jing each week through out my treatment and the acupuncture and herbs always made me feel better and made a tremendous positive impact. For example, as a result of one of the chemotherapy drugs (taxotere) I gained 12 pounds of water weight causing me tremendous discomfort with edema (I am petite so this was a lot of extra water to have on my body). After chemo, Dr. Jing gave me herbs and acupuncture and within in 3 weeks all of my edema and pain was gone. My UCLA Western docs were delighted. A few weeks ago I finished radiation and had a good deal of throbbing pain from my lymph node incision — I saw my doctors and while they were very sympathetic they basically encouraged me to be patient, take Advil and Vicodan as needed and suggested that it might be another 3 – 4 weeks before the pain went away. So, I went to Dr Jing and she gave me, Chinese herb salve, and herbal teas. Within 2 days I could lift my arm over my head and in 6 days my pain was completely gone. Within 2 weeks I was back to swimming, bike riding, and my wound is completely healed. I have great respect for my Western Docs and UCLA team and I am happy to report that I am now cancer free and grateful to them. At the same time, I am most grateful to Dr. Jing who helped me to heal and when Western medicine had reached its limits, she successfully employed Eastern medicine to make me whole. Personally, I also want to say Dr. Jing is kind, positive and always truthful. She is truly blessed with healing powers and I cannot express my gratitude enough to her. She is not an in-​network provider for my PPO insurance but I pay the money because she is worth it.

The doctors at TCM Healing Center should be listed in the Best Doctors register. I have tried many acupuncturists in an attempt to refer patients closer to home, but none provide the consistent high level of healing that is received at TCM Healing Center.
I first saw Dr. Jing over 15 years ago after being told that I needed major surgery. After 6 weeks of treatments at TCM Healing Center I was out of pain for the first time in 5 years. I continued monthly treatments for 6 months and have not suffered any pain since then. I have read comments about the high cost of treatment at TCM Healing Center. When you compare the cost of the treatments to the co-​pays for the surgery and rehabilitation, added to the lost income during hospitalization and recovery, traditional Chinese medicine was far less expensive than traditional western medicine. In addition, I didn’t have to suffer the pain of recovery, the inconvenience of rehab, the possibility of infection and complications or side effects of medications and anesthesia.
I am in Healthcare and confidently refer patients to TCM Healing Center nearly every day of my practice. Dr. Lu is extremely gifted in an advanced practice of this medicine. He generously travels to locations for film companies, and homes of Hospice and private duty cases — often with little advanced notice. Dr. Jing is extremely gifted in the medicine she practices. I am still amazed at her precision to diagnose and treat with only pulse checks and visual inspection of the tongue. There are no words to express my gratitude for the countless successful treatments for myself, my family, friends and patients.
I practice western medicine and cannot explain the molecular biophysics behind traditional Chinese medicine. I just know that it consistently works. Because of that, Dr. Lu and Dr. Jing are now the Primary Care Physicians for my family and many of our friends. For a better understanding of what they do, go to their website

I cannot say enough about the TCM Healing Center. I am so glad that I was referred to this place, and I will now use Dr. Jing as my «go-​to» doctor for whatever ails me.
Dr. Jing is an absolutely amazing healer — in just three months, she has radically transformed my health. I initially went to her for hormonal balancing, which she easily achieved, but I was surprised by how many other things improved — my sleep, my energy levels, my digestion, the strength of my hair and nails… the weirdest thing is that even my vision is better! I am back to wearing my first pair of glasses with a lower prescription because my contacts now feel too strong! I also had been getting chronic tension headaches which are completely gone now too. Just amazing.
A previous poster mentioned Dr. Jing’s «psychic» powers — I can attest to that. She is very intuitive and always seems to know exactly what is going on with my body. She is very kind and always offers words of encouragement, and seems genuinely interested in her patients.
The staff are friendly and kind, and it’s just an overall pleasant experience to be there. I have been referring many of my friends and clients here. Acupuncture/​herbs are not always cheap — but in the long run, it is worth every penny to take care of your health. I love acupuncture in general, but Dr. Jing is hands down the best practitioner I have ever worked with.

TCM is life changing. In 2011 I was in excruciating pain and my health care providers couldn’t figure out why. I went to TCM every week for acupuncture to relieve the pain until I could get a diagnosis. Would not have made it through months of pain without TCM.
In 2013, I started trying to get pregnant, but with no luck. Dr. Lim diagnosed me with yin deficiency. This is something no Western doc would ever even consider. After less than a year of treatment – which included diet modification, acupuncture and herbs – I got pregnant naturally. I’m in my late 30s, with serious health conditions that made getting pregnant very difficult. I don’t think I ever could have hoped for a natural pregnancy without Dr. Lim. She didn’t just save my sanity in 2011, she has now helped me start a family.
