Testimonials and reviews for Dr. Evan Mahoney and AcupunctureandTeas.com.

7.29.16 Kay P. from Google review left on video Recently I walked into Dr. Mahoney's office with severe pain in arm/shoulder which I had for 10 days and strong meds didn't even help to alleviate pain. After one treatment with Dr. Mahoney I felt better and 48 hrs later. I was pain free! His treatment even helped my chronic neck pain.


Roy R. from Google review left on photo I was at first skeptical about acupuncture and I was seeking help with stress and a general balancing. After the first session with Dr. Evan the skeptic disappeared. The results are real and he has such a gentle manner that you wish every health practitioner was like that. The herb concoction is wonderful and his Saam Meditation helps you extend the effect of acupuncture on your own. Oh and the stretch technique for those with sedentary jobs like myself is a huge help.


7.28.16 Milagros .P from Google review left on video The day I decided go to see Dr. Mahoney and Young OK was my lucky day, oh yes, for sure. After first procedure of Acupuncture and massage back on my neck and right arm my pain desapeared, am feeling much better every day. Thanks Dr Mahoney and thanks Mrs. Young Ok for being so good doing your job.


Duane K. After 8 months of constant pain and drugs that would kill a horse from 6 doctors, 2 sessions of treatment by Dr Mahoney brought my pain level to 0. Why? I can't figure it out--but it is a fact!! Daune K. Retired VP Research and Development Blue Cross/Blue Shield

Johanna H. Monrovia, CA 7/15/2010 I highly recommend SAMRA Acupuncture Center. Evan is a talented and caring acupuncturist specializing in musculoskeletal pain. He has extensive training in both cutting-edge and traditional Korean acupuncture techniques


Don M. Punta Gorda, FL 7/13/2010 I have had over eight treatments by Evan, I am over 78 and he has helped me with back pain,and poor leg circulation, but the most impressive treatment was when I developed Atrium Fibrillation, my Western Doctors explained the seriousness of this problem, but offered little help, I called Evan and he said he could help me. After one treatment my heart was beating at a normal rate, this was over a year ago, I have had three checkups and heart tests by my doctors, who could not find this problem now. this made a believer out of me. I now recommend Evan to my close friends who he has also treated and all speak very highly of his skills


UNRULY F. Los Angeles, CA 7/13/2010 In my recent visit to Samra Acupuncture Center in downtown Los Angeles, I was greeted by an extremely professional and competent Acupunturist by the name Evan. He first showed me the facilities, which are state of the art, and I had a treatment done which was amazingly professional. I would recommend Evan and this place to anyone interested in acupuncture. It was a great experience.

Dr Evan and OK are very lovely people. You can tell they focus on the care of a patient not the material gain. Dr Evan has helped me with my withdrawals from 52 years of smoking and the breathing challenges associated with it. Acupuncture keeps me centered while my body heals itself then comes the wonderful feeling of overall well being. I carry his cards in my purse highly recommending him to friends and strangers I meet. He is thorough, professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. I highly recommend him and have referred friends. We are fortunate to have him and his wife practice in our area.


From Google Places I underwent a Cervical Discectomy and fusion on my neck in 2010. Within 4 months post op I was experiencing severe muscle pain with limited movement of my head and neck. Referrals to physical therapy, deep massage, steriod injections and medial branch block of the nerves offered no relief. Prescription pain meds didn't touch the pain. The pain was 24/7 with no relief. After 3 years with interrupted sleep and trying to deal with the pain I had just about given up. I discovered Dr. Mahoney and it changed my life. The acupuncture treatments he administered over a period of months left me pain free.I am forever grateful to him! We are fortunate to have him and his wife practice in our area.

From Google Places I met Dr Evan and Young Ok in the spring of 2012. They had a booth at the Farmer's Market. I became a patient not long after and my first treatment was for some nagging back pain I was experiencing. After my first session I experienced relief and Dr. Evan also gave me some techniques to help with breathing and some specific stretching exercises to help with my back. That was a positive experience so I decided I would go again. The next visit I learned some about their background and I was impressed with the experience and training and time they had put in in study of this healing art. I like that Dr. Evan and Young Ok have a certain Focus in their practice, and they are always keen to learn my discomfort specifically so as to best enable the healing process. Since then my wife has been to them for migraine headaches, which she was experiencing frequently and she had relief the first visit and subsequent trips lengthened the time between flare ups. I have also sent several other referrals there and each report from them has been positive, from knee sprains to shoulder sprains to people in car accidents to general lethargy. I have sent several people over that have never experienced acupuncture as healing and not one has come back to say it was not worth it. I am glad to share my positive experiences and I will continue to be a patient and send my friends and associates their way
