Maunakea Acupuncture & Wellness Center

Mei-Lin is assume! She does a great job with my knees and Kidney issues. Been to a lot of different acupuncturist, I give her a 10 out of 10! 🤙🏼

This place is excellent. I came here for help recovering from shoulder surgery as well as working on other health goals. I did approximately 20 sessions and it helped immensely. I highly recommend this place. The staff is very nice and helpful as well.

Injured my shoulder several weeks prior to making an appointment. The ambiance of the office and treatment rooms is relaxing without putting you to sleep. Dr. Luo began with explaining a realistic goal-reducing the amount of pain while waiting for orthos MRI. Ive had several sessions - combination of accupuncture and fire cupping - since 1st visit and the plan is slowly working.

This was my first acupuncture appointment ever and they made the process very easy. The office is clean, comfortable and relaxing. Staff is friendly and helpful. Mei Lin is extremely knowledgeable, affable and listened to all of my concerns. I went in with joint pain and felt some relief after the first treatment. I was also served tea right after. Looking forward to my next appointment! 10/10 highly recommend!

I am in love with Maunakea Acupuncture, from the moment I walked into the office it was quiet and very relaxing. The receptionist was very sweet and friendly. Mei Lin was a gem, she listened and asked questions. She was very gentle. They use natural oils and have defusers in the rooms. I loved the calming music and the oils.This combined with acupuncture and cupping oh and a cup of tea after the treatment was just the best. I feel relaxed and refreshed. I have found my new acupuncturist!

First time trying acupuncture and cupping was ...wow, I was brave! Glad I was not feeling the pain that I imagined it might bring! Having needles all over (exaggerating..not all over :P) my body was interesting, haha. This place has a soothing ambience, very relaxing. The front desk lady was very nice. The consultation with Mei-Lin for my 1st visit was good. She tried to collect as much information about my health and provided helpful suggestions. Mei-Lin is a sweet lady and she demonstrates her knowledge in a professional way. The only trouble I had was to find the suite 805...It took me a while to realize that the elevator on the adjacent building would take me up to the clinic, not the elevator in the parking building. I dont know how much acupuncture will help me at this time (I have fertility issue) but I am willing to return to do some more sessions, its also a peace to my mind.

I initially went to Mei-Lin for infertility, and saw positive changes after two months. Every session makes me feel calm and centered and I always look forward to them. I will keep going once I get pregnant and after for stress relief. Its better than the spa in my opinion. Mei Lin is attentive, caring and talented. Love her!

Love love love Mei Lin and Maunakea Acupunture and Wellness Center! Mei Lin is very knowledgeable, quiet, but compassionate and has great energy. Her aromatherapy and precise know how regarding pinpointing certain areas to make you feel better is simply amazing. The delicious tea is a perfect way to end the session and her front desk manager is really on it and great at what she does. Sometimes she even sneaks me into a room early to relax if they have one available. Highly recommend.

Love, love, love Dr. Mei Lin and Katrina! I cant explain just how transformative and healing my visits with Dr. Mei Lin are, shes incredible! Ive been her patient for the past year, and I dont know how I would have gotten through it without her and staff. Upon my first visit, I immediately knew that I found a special place where I felt that my concerns were being heard. I have had chronic back pain for a number of years, and I feel much more balanced and experience tremendous relief from my treatments. Dr. Mei Lin has also treated me with fire cupping and aromatherapy which is such a nourishing treatment! If you havent tried acupuncture and youre looking for a doctor who cares, and is curious about your body, and its needs then youve got to try Maunakea Wellness Center!Im so grateful to have found a wellness center that is grounded in holistic methods of healing. Not to mention the ambience, from the gentle music to the warmth of the bed, and the hot tea at the end of your treatment- all so incredibly relaxing. Thank you Mei-Lin and staff!

For the last three months, all my sessions were very good- went in for nerve pain on my leg. Mei Lin not only help me manage my pain but also the sessions were very rejuvenating. Each room had calming music & aromatherapy mist that truly made your body relax.I always look forward for my next treatment.- a very holistic experience. Very good feeling from start to end-also hot tea was served at the end. I highly recommend to try acupuncture w/ Mei Lin Maunakea.

I always wanted to try acupuncture but never did because of my fear of needles. If this is the reason holding you back from trying it, Im here to tell you to ignore those fears and go for it because you wont regret it. It is one of the best health decisions I made for myself. I first started to see Mei-Lin for anxiety, and of course the thought of being poked with needles only made me more anxious, but she was very understanding about my fear of needles and definitely did her best to make me feel comfortable and relaxed. It took me a few sessions to really get comfortable with the needles, but once I did, I started to notice the benefits of acupuncture and my anxiety levels started to become manageable. I also saw her for a pain in my arm that I had for years after a fall, but the pain has been completely gone for almost a year now. Basically any ailment or problem I have seen Mei-Lin for has seen tremendous improvement. Now I look forward to my appointments as I have the best naps as that is how relaxed and comfortable I am now. Like I said, dont wait!!! Id like also add that acupuncture is not a miracle cure - like anything else it doesnt just take one treatment and will require a treatment plan.

Ive been seeing Mei Lin for almost a year now for acupuncture. Originally it was for congestion issues, which the acupuncture did help to relieve. I go in every month for health maintenance. Shes very knowledgeable and has excellent bedside manner. I leave feeling way better than I was coming in. Thank you Mei Lin!

Mei Lin and her staff at Maunakea Accupuncture are exceptional.Having a huge fear of needles I never tried acupuncture, have been lthrough every physical therapy one could have offered. Physical therapy through my Doctor, water therapy, Chiropractic. All had there place and offered their own individual relief. My health insurance provider suggested acupuncture as a new option for my constant pain that has been a long journey. My first appointment was consultation and speaking with Mei Lin about the issues and how they would be approached. Everything was explained simply. My first treatment as a needle fearful person was relaxing, when I left I felt the benefits of my first treatment. When one is in constant pain any relief from it is a Blessing. Got to my car to leave, it was so painless the pain I had arriving had been left somewhere else for now. If you are like me and are living with constant pain please you owe it to yourself to make an appointment to speak with and be treated by Mei Lin.My first appointment was in August 2016 it is November and I continue treatment 1 a week for maintenance. The constant intense pain has gone down many levels what was a pain level of 8 or 9 reduces to 1 or 2.If you have never had this kind of pain your are fortunate. If you are an individual or know someone who has pain to this degree Mei Lin should be the next appointment you make. Relief, serenity and the mind and body connection are very therapeutic. You owe it to yourself!

Mei-Lin does an excellent job of a thorough intake interview. She perceived things in my health profile which I had never focused on before as symptoms of my dysfunction. And her office is so pleasant it is almost a spa experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for strong, science based acupuncture services.

Maunakea Acupuncture & Wellness Center is great place for those, like myself, who’ve never experienced acupuncture before and are first-timers. Dr. Mei Lin helped put my anxiety at ease and made my experience amazing. Evertytime I entered her facility I left feeling more relaxed and with less pain than I entered. I came to her office for treatment on one of my body parts but wasn’t feeling good due to a migraine headache that had been ongoing for two days. I didn’t think I’d be able to work through the session but she told me not to worry and that she would be able to help with some of the pain. By the end of my session, my body was relaxed and in less pain. Best of all my migraine was almost completely gone without having had to take any medication. I don’t think I can live without acupuncture now. It’s a part of my healing.

When I first came to Oahu, I was concerned about finding an Acupuncture business that I could trust. Then I found Dr. Mei Lin and her outstanding practice!!! From the moment you walk through the door, you are greeted with a peaceful surrounding. Her thoughtfulness and care towards you as an individual is something you dont see a lot of these days. I am so happy to have found her and look forward to each visit with her!

I’m a believer!I started acupuncture at Maunakea Wellness in 2014 for headaches during the pregnancy of my second child. Mei Lin helped to relieve my headaches allowing my pregnancy to be a positive experience. I continue to see Mei Lin and would recommend her to anyone looking for help in areas like pain relief, infertility, allergies and much more.

Mei-Lin is very thorough in her health evaluation, and really takes the time to understand your lifestyle and assess your unique challenges. The office is a very soothing environment, with several amenities that make treatment an enjoyable treat, including freshly brewed herbal tea and warm blankets. I would recommend Maunakea Acupuncture to anyone with any kind of health challenger, or even just for a de-stresser.

Ive been bringing my sister to MAUNAKEA ACUPUNCTURE & WELLNESS for a 5 months (1-2 treatments weekly). From the initial consultation our experience and progress has been great! MeiLin is just a blessing. She genuinely cares about my sisters well-being n her staff fills the center with true aloha and ohana. Its an honor a privilege to know them and recommend anyone to join the experience! You will be blessed! Mahalo DOC! Lol!

Mei Lin offers a holistic approach to traditional Chinese medicine. She pairs traditional acupuncture techniques with her specialty in Electrotherapy. This pairs great for those suffering from knee or back pain. My friend Natalie referred me after her successful fertility clinic with Mei Lin. Additionally, it serves as anxiety relief and helps with symptoms of PTSD.An added bonus, Mei Lei offers an herbal tea with every visit.

I come here for relaxation and to address some health issues. Mei Lin and her staff are very polite and respectful. I have greatly benefited from her technique and advice. I leave my appts super relaxed and well rested. Recommended 100%.

Maunakea Acupuncture & Wellness Center worked wonders for me. I had recurring neck pain and stiffness and Mei-Lin sourced the pain to other parts of my back and shoulders. After a couple of sessions of cupping and acupuncture, but along with instruction and knowledge to help me properly address my body AFTER the session, the pain was greatly reduced and eventually the problem diminished. It was the combination of her actions on the spot AND her knowledge and recommendations on overall wellness that healed me. Ive been to many acupuncturists in the past that only worked on me but did not provide additional insight for continual improvement. This was the difference.Oh...and the soothing herbal tea at the end of my treatment was a perfect touch!

Ive been getting services from Mei-Lin nearing close to a year. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone for any medical issues or concerns. During the months of treatments, I have developed a sense of trust which has always been an important factor to me! Mei-Lin has always displayed professionalism, sincerely cares about her patients welfare, and has adequate knowledge on how to treat ailments. Ive always believed in holistic treatment and/or natural healing so when I contracted what I thought to be arthritis in both hands and trigger fingers, I immediately sought out an alternative treatment rather than going to my general medicine doctor. Going to my family doctor I knew, would not cure my pain, but just mask it with medication. Since Mei-Lin is conveniently located in the same building as my doctor, I decided to give her a try. After a few months of treatment, my pain was all gone, I had full movement of my fingers, and no pain in my hands! Thereafter, one day after work, both of my ears were plugged and sounds of engines were running loud to where my hearing was at a 80-90% lost! It happened to be on a Friday and I had a school function to attend the next morning since I am a school teacher. Being unable to get to the doctor the next day, I called and was told to get a decongestant from the drugstore and come in on Monday. I went to see my doctor on Monday and was told nothing was wrong with my ears and was referred to a specialist that day. The specialist checked my ears and reported the same thing, nothing wrong detected. They even gave me a hearing test that same day and suggested I need a hearing aid! At my worst condition, I am given a hearing test and being told I needed a hearing aid got me angry! Since my condition was unknown, I was prescribed medication to be taken for one week and to return for a follow up visit. During the one week of taking the meds, I developed shortness of breath and irregular heartbeats, but being the samurai that I am, I stuck it out. On my follow up visit to the specialist, my hearing got better, but the ringing in my ears persisted. Whats funny is I never got to speak to the lead doctor and worked only with his assistant. I was told the progress was good since my hearing improved, but he would want me to submit to a CT Scan or an MRI to make sure I didnt have a tumor behind my eardrum. Throughout this ordeal, I developed some inner feelings of uneasiness and concerns about their focus being on the almighty dollar. I settled for the CT Scan and refused the MRI. Before I left, I asked the assistant if there were any side effects to the medication I was given like what I experienced and was told yes! I stopped, had to keep my composure, and asked why I wasnt told about it since one of them was a sample given to me. Of course, I was so upset I didnt even focus on what answer I was given. A few weeks thereafter, a friend mine shared his experience and I found out he also went to this same specialist and experienced the same thing. That was enough for me to cancel everything and take my chances! I never went to the CT Scan and cut the doctors visits. I knew who my go to person should have been in the first place, Mei-Lin! She has been treating me for my ailment on my ears ever since and currently, its getting much better while also treating my achilles injury. Those of you who are hesitant about acupuncture, I will say, it does work because I am living proof of it! Years ago, I was a powerlifter who hurt my shoulder and the only treatment that helped me was through acupuncture! I dont know what happened to that person so this is why I am a believer!!!!!! My wife also gets treatment from Mei-Lin for her back and hips. Years ago, my wife had a knee replacement surgery too. We have a lot to look forward to for our wellness needs now that we have Mei-Lin Maunakea!!!!!!!

I agree with all the positive reviews about Mei-Lin, her staff, and her office. I like Mei-Lin because I believe she genuinely cares about her patients well-being and I highly recommend her. Mei-Lin, Mahalo Nui Loa for your help, Reuben.

I recommend my family and friends to see Dr. Mei-Lin, because she truly cares about you and your health. Her understanding of the body and how to treat it was eye opening for me. I learned so much about my body in one day with her. Go and see her one time and youll understand what Im talking about, I sure glad I did!

Very COVID conscious and safe. Mei Lin is inquisitive and responsive to how I’m feeling. She also provides helpful advice as to how to manage, relieve and prevent pain.

Mei Lin is very knowlegeable of the chinese medicine she practices: accupuncture, cupping, electro-stimulation, herbal heat treatment, and herbal medicine. She is a very caring person and desires only the best treatment for her patients. Mahalo for all your help!

Located in the Kuakini medical Plaza, parking structure attached (parking is validated for patients). If you park on the 3rd Floor of the parking structure, it brings you into the building on the 3rd floor. I believe her office is on the 8th Floor.Ive had acupuncture all over the world and this is by far the nicest office I have been in. I was so comfortable, I fell asleep for a short time during my session. Highly recommended.

I visit MeiLin each time I visit from Florida. The accupuncure treatment has helped reduce the benign tremors in my left hand. This time one treatment has reduced the pain in my righthand and the stiffness in my foot. Ill coninue to visit until I return to Florida.

Meilin, as your student, I cannot be more grateful to you & your expertise that you rained down on us. Thank you for being an incredible mentor, role model & teacher, & most importantly acupuncturist! (she really is the best)

Mei Lin is so wonderful and professional. Her acupuncture treatments have changed my life and I am so grateful.

The Dr. is very caring and thorough. Relaxing treatment room with pleasant aroma and shooting music.

Mei Lin is awesome! Love the atmosphere there. Conducive to relaxation.

Insomnia gradually improving. Now I realize how we need balance.... so important!

Very excellent help & professional. Recommend to all. I hope they help you as much as theyve helped me.

I am enjoying my acupuncture sessions.

I cant believe I fell a sleep. But got a good rest.

Healing atmosphere and excellent bedside manor.

Great for pain
