New Hope Acupuncture and Wellness

Two months after running a marathon I suffered a bulging disc causing chronic back and leg pain and loss of function of my foot. Two years of intensive physical therapy and chiropractic treatments helped manage the pain and improved my mobility but I continued to experienced pain on a daily basis, had a significant limp and was unable to run. My chiropractor suggested I give acupuncture a try and recommended New Hope AcuCenter in Acton. I met with Ms. Shu and after 4 sessions, my pain is almost gone, function is returning to my leg and foot and I am able to jog comfortably with very little gait disruption. I am so grateful for Ms. Shu’s attentive care and the New Hope I have found in regaining my health and active lifestyle. Thank you, New Hope AcuCenter!

“I’m very grateful for the doctor’s patient treatment. I had been feeling unwell for a long time, but after several sessions with the doctor, I now feel much better overall. The doctor was very patient and provided me with a customized treatment plan.”

Ms. Shu is a highly skilled and sensitive acupuncturist. I have relied on her treatments to regain balance and will continue to do so! Treatment rooms are very comfortable, and staff is excellent. I highly recommend Ms. Shu to become your acupuncturist!

I started seeing Dr. Shu after a miscarriage and then subsequent months of infertility. Within three months of seeing Dr. Shu I was pregnant and now baby is here and healthy! I have had a vaso vagal response to blood draws and needles in the past so I was pleasantly surprised that this felt entirely different and I wasn’t uneasy at all - in fact, I fell asleep nearly every session! Would highly recommend Dr. Shu and I’m sure I will be back in the future for other ailments. I am so grateful for the entire team at New Hope!

I am so grateful that a friend recommended New Hope Acupuncture and Wellness to me. Dr Shu evaluated me over the course of several visits and we have embarked on a treatment plan that is already helping with headaches (cluster/migraine) and other related symptoms. Dr Shu is inquisitive, sensitive to your needs and is a gifted TCM and acupuncture provider. I only wish I had found her sooner.

I went for treatment for stomach issue and pain in my back and feet. The back and feet pain were gone after first appointment and the stomach issue has gotten better each appointment. I also came in one time with a sore neck from sleeping the wrong way and the pain was gone almost immediately. Highly recommend

Today I booked my very first acupuncture session at “New Hope Acupuncture and Wellness” in Acton with Dr. Junting Shu & Jia (the receptionist, who is the sweetest & friendliest person you’ll meet)💕

Being 39 weeks pregnant, I decided to try acupuncture for labor induction as advised by my doctor because of my baby’s asymmetric IUGR & honestly, it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made☺️
My two-hour session began with a detailed consultation. Dr. Junting Shu took her time, covering every aspect of my health history before starting. She was calm, relaxed, & incredibly accommodating never once did I feel rushed. When the procedure began, each needle felt like it was addressing something specific in my body.
Once the needles were placed, she left the room with a warm red light & a bell in case I needed her.

That quiet...

Newhope acupuncture is absolutely amazing. Everyoneis beyond professional and extremely knowledgeable. Very kind, caring and compassionate. I started about a month ago. When i first came in i was in absolute agony having no relief at all for the last 6 years from pinched nerves, bulging, herniated discs in cervical,thorasic and lumbar spine, Muscle knots. Ive had many radio-frequency nerve burning done as well as many steroid injections and they do nothing. I was told i need a spinal fusion long ago but have been trying to not have to get it done as long as i possibly could. Within minutes of Dr. Shu doing the acupuncture i got more relief than i have gotten with western medicine in 6 years. There are so many great benefits to this. My menstrual cycle has significantly improved beyond belief. I was having worse cycles and cramping for quite some time compared to my younger years. I...

I cannot recommend this acupuncturist enough; this woman has saved my life. I first came to see Junting at the end of February (from the recommendation of my boyfriend) when I had had to have emergency surgery to have a kidney stone removed in the ER. Immediately, I felt relief (my pain was through the roof after having had my kidney stone stuck for more than 2 weeks and then having a stent placed and removed in order to let the debris of the stone be able to pass.) I have gone to see her every week since and I have had no kidney pain or issues since. She has also been helping me with my menstrual issues (I constantly have ovarian cysts rupture and am pretty sure I have endometriosis) and my pain related to my cycles has been greatly decreased. This woman is a hidden treasure in Acton and anyone suffering anything remotely similar to what I have gone through should consider coming to...

I cannot recommend New Hope Acupunture and wellness highly enough. I came in struggling hives and constant bloating that had been disrupting my daily life. From the very first session, I felt truly listened to and cared for. Ms. Shu took the time to understand my symptoms in detail and explained the treatment process clearly, which immediately put me at ease.

The results have been incredible. After just a few treatments, my hives began to ease, and the bloating that used to be an everyday battle is now so much more manageable. I feel lighter, more comfortable, and overall healthier than I have in years.

Beyond the treatments themselves, Ms. Shu creates such a calming and supportive environment—it’s truly a healing space. I leave every session not only with physical relief, but also with a sense of balance and peace.
