New Hope Acupuncture and Wellness

I came here after waking up with terrible lower back pain, I could barely move. Even after my first session, I regained so much mobility. I continued with a few follow-up sessions, and now my back is fully healed. I’m so grateful for the care Dr. Shu provided!

I’ve had a really positive experience working with my acupuncturist, Fangrui Shu. In just 3–4 sessions, I noticed meaningful improvements in several areas that had been bothering me for quite some time. She helped relieve discomfort and tightness related to adhesions from my C-section scar, which I hadn’t found much relief from before.
I also saw improvements in my digestion, especially with constipation, and a noticeable reduction in period cramping. Beyond that, I’ve felt a boost in my overall energy levels and better focus day to day.
She is extremely knowledgeable, and I truly trust her process, which has made a big difference in how comfortable and confident I feel during treatment.
We’re still working on my chronic neck pain, but I’m already encouraged by the early reduction in intensity. I feel supported and optimistic about the progress we’re making, and I’m...

I consider myself so lucky to have found New Hope Acupuncture! I was easily able to book my first appointment online and was seen for symptoms of back pain, knee pain and anxiety. My back and knee pain resolved after the first visit and my anxiety went from a level of ten to a more manageable 4. Scheduling follow up appointments has been quite simple and the front desk is amazing.

New Hope is truly a place filled with love, healing, and genuine hope — the name could not be more perfect.

The positive energy here is reflected in every detail: the way people communicate with patients, the thoughtful setup of the clinic, the plants and flowers, and even the different kinds of music therapy that create such a comforting environment.

I live quite far away, so in the beginning every visit meant taking the T and the commuter rail. One time I even biked there in the rain, and Jia kindly helped me carry my heavy bicycle. I still think about moments like this and feel deeply touched.

In 2025, I was on certain medications that had significant side effects. At one point, I was not even able to cook for myself. Under Dr. Shu’s care, I gradually regained the ability to cook again and eventually going back to work 5 days a week.

Dr. Shu at New Hope Acupuncture is incredible. I sought treatment for a variety of issues—headaches, back pain, stomach issues, fatigue, and brain fog—as well as supplemental support for trauma recovery. Dr. Shu listens intently and has a special gift for healing; she has truly worked magic on my health and recovery. Highly recommended for anyone needing routine to deep, restorative care.

I tried acupuncture as a last resort while struggling with perimenopause issues. I was not a believer walking in but a friend recommended it so I have it shot. The doctor was great with listening to my concerns. I felt the effects after the first visit. It specifically helped with my insomnia, anxiety, brain fog and bloating. I highly recommend!

I recommend seeing Dr. Shu if you have any health concerns. I didn’t expect how much it would improve the quality of my daily life when I first tried out acupuncture with her! I’ve been coming here for 6 months now. I don’t really have any MAJOR health issues but it’s safe to say that I now sleep better and feel more energetic in the day :)

Dr. Shu is a very skilled acupuncturist. I initially came to her for acute OHSS with abdominal and chest pain, and she helped me recover with acupuncture, qigong, and herbal medicine. Now she’s been treating my chronic issues like fibromyalgia, headaches, IBS, coldness and dampness in my body, and irregular periods. It’s hard to find a good acupuncturist, so I’m happy that my friend recommended Dr. Shu to me.

The front desk staff is very nice and friendly. The clinic is cozy and the pillows they use are so comfy that I bought two to use at home! There is also a big Asian grocery store not far away from the clinic, and we get some groceries and snacks on our way home.

I wanted to share my experience after about six months of acupuncture treatment for adenomyosis.

Before I started, my periods were very difficult—I had significant pain for 7–8 days every month, and the bleeding would drag on with spotting until around day 10. It was exhausting both physically and mentally.

After consistent treatment, the changes have been really encouraging. Now, I only feel a slight heaviness or mild discomfort on the first day of my period, and the rest of the days are much easier. My cycle has also become much shorter and cleaner—it now finishes within about 5 days instead of lingering.

I also followed the practitioner’s advice and took traditional Chinese herbal medicine alongside acupuncture, which I believe made a big difference in supporting the results.

This experience really taught me that for chronic...

The receptionist Jai is very responsive and able to assist from setting up the appointment for initial consultation and work out with the insurance provider for treatment approval. Always very welcoming whenever I came in to my visit and help prepare for my treatment.
I started my acupuncture treatments many years ago through several practices after traditional physical therapy and chiropractor’s treatment didn’t help resolve my longstanding chronic pain in lower back and ankle injuries.
Fortunately I was able to find a local practitioner whereas it is very conveniently locating closer to work and home and able to find a schedule to fit my needs.
My current treatment is ranging from traditional acupuncture and/or combination of cupping or electrical stimulation. I have been through many years of struggling with lower back pain to occasional ankle pain issues and...

Ms. Shu is incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and detailed in her treatments. She truly cares about helping her patients feel better, and her expertise made us feel very comfortable with the treatment plan she created for us. My husband and I both noticed results within the first week.

The front desk staff is also wonderful, very friendly and quick to respond to messages.
Overall, the entire experience has been welcoming and positive. Highly recommend!

I’m truly grateful for the care I received here. I had been struggling with persistent rhinitis for about a year, and after several acupuncture sessions my nasal symptoms improved dramatically and the constant discomfort finally resolved.

The treatments also made a significant difference for my premenstrual symptoms. My anxiety decreased, my mood became much more stable, and the usual pain and discomfort were greatly reduced.

Dr.Shu is thoughtful, professional, and attentive to each patient’s condition. I deeply appreciate the skill and care involved in the treatments. Highly recommended.

I originally came in for shoulder pain from a skiing accident. At the same time I was experiencing relentless hot flashes and going through many life transitions. I was having a difficult time getting a grip. Acupuncture and the Chinese herbs Dr Shu prescribed really helped to restore balance in my body and mind. I was currently doing Physical therapy, massage, Myofascial release and chiropractor for my shoulder pain but it wasn’t until adding the acupuncture that I start seeing improvements and was able to make progress with my shoulder injury. Needless to say Acupuncture has a warm place in my heart and really helped me to get my life moving forward again. Thank you Dr Shu :)

Highly recommend if you are someone who deals with/suffers from chronic migraines. The doctor was able to significantly help me with pain and frequency of my migraines.

New Hope Acupuncture has been a game-changer for our family! It’s helped ease my age-related aches and pains and supported my son’s quick recovery from sports injuries. The staff is always professional, caring, and super accommodating. Highly recommend!

I had a beautiful journey at the first time at the New Hope, when Dr.Shu put the needles in my body, after 5 minutes something started in my hole body for a minute,and it flew away from me!!! All my pain gone and after I slept around 15 minutes and relax really enjoyed the hole treatment!! I usually go there once in a month and enjoy it.I think She is a very smart and talented Lady and She knows what she is doing!!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!!! SZISZI

I am very happy that I found Dr. Junting Shu. I have never met such a people-oriented, conscientious healer. We have been going to him for over a year, and I will go as long as I can! My knee pain is gone, even though the doctors said: "I need a new knee!" I am very grateful and thank you very much! The best Junting Shu!

I’ve had three acupuncture treatments with Dr. Shu so far, and I’m already seeing significant improvement. I originally came in for tennis elbow and persistent post-nasal drip, and both issues have noticeably improved after just a few sessions.

My elbow pain has decreased substantially — I can move and use my arm much more comfortably now. The post-nasal drip, which had been bothering me for quite some time, has also eased a lot.

Dr. Shu is attentive, knowledgeable, and takes the time to understand the root of the problem rather than just treating the symptoms. The treatments are thoughtful and effective. I’m very grateful for the progress and will definitely continue.

Highly recommend Dr. Shu to anyone considering acupuncture.

It has been a great progress working with Dr. Shu at New Hope Accupunture. Dr. Shu has been treating my nerve pains and paralyzed leg due to cancer roughly about 2 months now. Her knowledge of traditional Chinese accupunture is amazing. My pain and sleep has greatly improved so I highly recommended to anyone with back and leg pain to go see her.

I started my acupuncture journey a little over a year ago and originally went to help with anxiety. I noticed an immediate improvement in my symptoms. I had tried acupuncture in the past at another place and never saw much improvement. The Dr. at New Hope is very thorough and individualized my treatment. More recently, I asked for help with menopause symptoms, and after one visit, my hot flashes nearly disappeared, and after two treatments completely gone. I feel so relaxed and rested after completing a treatment and the Chinese herbs are a miracle. I highly recommend New Hope Acupuncture To anyone who is looking for improved health without taking more prescriptions.

I had a severe injury to my shoulder and back muscles, resulting in massive pain and I could not move my shoulder. Although a hospital doctor prescribed strong painkillers, it was the acupuncture treatment that really fixed the issue. New Hope Acupuncture fit me in for an urgent appointment, and after the treatment, my muscles finally loosened up. I saw consistent improvement with every session. The pain was manageable after just one week, and I made an almost complete recovery within three weeks. I am so glad I tried acupuncture and truly appreciate the doctor's care.

I had wrist pain for several months, and after getting acupuncture treatment at New Hope, the pain was completely resolved. Beyond that, I also noticed my overall energy level improved a lot — I feel more balanced and less fatigued. The practitioner was attentive and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere was calm and welcoming. I’m really glad I found this place and would highly recommend it.

The treatments were quite effective. I had some energy issue and neck/shoulder pain, and was able to get treated within a few sessions. Definitely would recommend to my friends!

I cannot recommend Fangrui Shu enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and compassionate. She really took the time to understand my needs, and the acupuncture treatments have been life-changing for me.

I came to New Hope to deal with my persistent insomnia. I believe the sessions have helped improve my sleep. I still have some bad nights, but I have more good nights than bad these days.

New Hope Acupuncture has been absolutely incredible! I originally came in for abnormal spotting, low energy, and shoulder and lower back pain. After just one treatment I noticed improvement, and after several months of regular treatment, my symptoms have greatly improved and my pain is all gone!

Dr. Shu is very thorough and checks in at every visit to make sure your overall health is improving. They take a holistic approach using acupuncture, moxibustion, and herbal medicine, which really helped me regain my energy and improve my overall well-being.

I’m so grateful for the results and highly recommend Dr. Shu to anyone looking for natural, holistic care.

I highly recommend New Hope Accupuncture. The doctor takes time to listen to your issues and tailors your treatment to your specific needs. My lower back feels great after only two sessions.

I decided to give acupuncture a try for arthritis in my shoulder area. I'd done PT, and used a heating pad daily with little results. I'd gotten a recommendation to go to New Hope and give it a try. I'm so glad I did. Fangrui Shu is so kind and compassionate and her initial evaluation is the most thorough I've every had. My shoulder discomfort is now very minimal, if at all. And if that wasn't enough, as we age, the multiple nightly trips to the bathroom has decreased, down to once or not at all! I mentioned wanting to lose weight, next thing I know, my cravings are gone, no hunger pains. She is truely remarkable, wish I'd done this sooner.
The receptionist Jai is the sweetest, always smiling. If you ever wondered about acupuncture and what it can do for you, this is the place to go, you too will wish you had gone sooner.

I had acupuncture treatment with Fangrui for my trigger finger and shoulder pain, and I’m honestly so happy with the results. I started feeling improvement very quickly, and both issues were completely relieved in just three sessions.
Fangrui is very gentle, patient, and really listens to what you’re feeling. She explained the treatment clearly and made me feel comfortable every time. The sessions were relaxing, and I could feel my pain reducing after each visit.
I’m so grateful for her care and skill. I highly recommend "New hope" to anyone dealing with pain — acupuncture truly worked for me!

Dr Shu helped me a nagging shoulder pain that had lasted a year before I came to see her for it... within just a couple of treatments, the pain is significantly better!! Cannot recommend New Hope and Dr Shu enough :) ❤️
