Persimmon Health Community Acupuncture

I love this place! I have been coming here for over two months now, and I am a believer in acupuncture. As someone who suffers from anxiety and back pain associated with scoliosis, I started coming here via a recommendation from a friend. Initially, I was like, eh is this really going to work. However, I am hooked and so grateful that I found them. When I first started going, I wasn't able to relax enough. I was so stressed and tense. Now, I look forward to going to enjoy a relaxing 45-minute session. I get so relaxed that I can practice meditation and mindfulness. I now fall asleep during this time too. I have also noticed improvement in my back pain. Another great thing about Persimmon Community Acupuncture is that you can pay on a sliding scale per session. It makes acupuncture affordable. Some insurance companies also cover it, so check-in with your insurance provider regarding it. Both practitioners are great! They always ask how you are doing and what areas you want to focus on for the session. They also make sure you are comfortable before leaving you to relax for 45 minutes. I love this place, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to get into natural medicine and remedies. I highly recommend. They are super busy now. It can take a couple of weeks to schedule an appointment. Nonetheless, it is worth the investment. Looking forward to my next session.

Yonnie is very patient and knowledgeable, the cupping and acupuncture is making me stronger every time I receive a treatment. I am looking forward to my next visit!!

I have never been a fan of acupuncture but in this life I have found two of the most competent facilities- Scott Evans, and now Persimmon Community Acupuncture. Persimmon is ran by two sisters who are not only professional, but supersede many in competency and care. While I know that you don't know me, I'd like for anyone reading this post to believe me when I say that if you have a fear of needles or acupuncture in general, this facility will REVERSE that fear. Not only is the process pain free, but the results are amazing. It doesn't matter which sister you choose, Yonie or Shoanie, the care you receive will always be exceptional. Give them a chance if you are living a life of pain. It is truly worth it.

I have been treated by a few reputable acupuncture experts, and one very famous practitioner in the Bay Area. I have never been treated so cold and unprofessionally as at Persimmon. It was so bad I thought of calling them back to ask if I said or did anything wrong. I didn't.I arrived and a very young receptionist asked me if I was paying or using insurance. My insurance covers a few sessions so I used it. Was it that? Then the receptionist, not the acupuncturist, asked if I wanted to sit or lay down. What? Why am I being treated by a receptionist? Every other place I have gone I met with the professional acupuncturist who did a complete diagnosis and then recommended treatment. Kind of like a medical professional. At Persimmon the acupuncturist eventually wandered over and directed me to a very small barren room that looked like a storage area. She then just said, "so the liver," because that's what I wrote in the online form. After I explained more she put some needles in my legs and arms and returned to remove them in 30 minutes. She told me I was done so I got up and wandered back to the receptionist who said nothing. I told her this all felt very awkward as I didn't know what to do, and she giggled then said they usually like you back in a week. All this time the acupuncturist is wandering around in the background. Needless to say I didn't reschedule. Don't go here! I have been to really good acupuncture practitioners and these are not it.

The doctors are very knowledgeable and professional with warm bed side manners. The environment is comfortable and clean. Wonderful introduction for me into acupuncture care!

My husband has been going here and he loves it! Of course the doctors prescribed him pain pills for his hip pain and now he swears by acupuncture...especially this place!

Great staff. Wonderful practitioners. I love how easy it is to schedule online, in person, over the phone, or via text. Great at accommodating emergencies. Sliding scale, very affordable, accepts some insurances. Very kind.

The ladies cat Persimmon are amazing. I had hip pain from arthritis that was regularly an 8 out of 10. After my first visit I had relief like I hadn't had in years. After a few more visits, my pain level is down around 3-4. I was having some other issues this past visit and I felt so much better. I highly recommend these ladies and acupuncture. It's the first time I've tried it. I wish I had tried it sooner.

These two ladies are wonderful! They are very knowable and professional in what they do. I would highly recommend.

So after reading some of their bad reviews I agree with them. First off as you arrive you're given a $tupid look by a young girl at the front who has no communication skills at all. Then you are thrown into a room like chickens stuck together. You are lucky if you get a room to yourself. There is two acupunctures who do the work. Either you get the nice one or the one with the attitude problem. They work on different days so hope your lucky not to get the nasty attitude one. Place has potential to be better but there is not leadership here.
