EYE CONDITIONS
"I’ve suffered from dry eyes for over 10 years since I had Lasik Eye Surgery and it got to the point where my eye doctor was wanting to put plugs in my eyes. I came to Lotus Hands and saw Kathrine and she has done wonders. I don’t have to pry my eyes open when I wake up each morning and my eyes don’t hurt anymore. It’s amazing what acupuncture can do for your health. If you suffer from dry eyes don’t hesitate to come see Kathrine! You will not regret it." Alicia G. (Google Review)
"Katherine and Anthony are the perfect example of professionals. They truly make your concerns - their concerns. They ask the right questions and they understand the issue you are having before proceeding. I had a horrible experience with a routine sinus procedure that went very wrong and left me partially blind in one eye, all doctors said there was absolutely nothing that could be done. I decided to try Lotus Hands and I achieved results even surprising the doctors. There is now blood flow to my retina and improvement in my vision. Nothing short of a miracle. I am so thankful for them giving me not only hope but results. I highly recommend Lotus Hands Acupuncture. Also, that bed you lay on while getting your procedure is AMAZING!!!" - Greg C.

"I was diagnosed with early stage of Cataract few months ago. I drove down to Houston from Dallas to see Kathrine for the treatments. After first course of treatment (10 sessions), I drove back to Dallas and back to work. My works require to use microscope to detect abnormal cells and need to have very sharp eyes. I noticed, for the first time, that I can see cells sharper and clearer which greatly help me to accomplish my jobs. On the way home everyday, I am so happy to see the street signs, all things around me much more beautiful. Life is so awesome! I really enjoyed the time I spent getting treatment. The office is very relaxing with a very comforting environment. I am so fortunate to have found Kathrine. I will definitely continue acupuncture treatments to save my eyes!" - Phuong M.

"I developed central serous retinopathy a few years ago. I have tried a few different remedies to help with this condition, but i had not experienced any success. After visiting a new ophthalmologist, I had finally been given additional information and techniques to try. While trying to understand lymphatic massage from online resources, I came across Lotus Hands Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine! My ophthalmologist was open to the idea of me trying acupuncture! After only 8 weeks the ophthalmologist has identified improvement and we are encouraged by the results. I highly recommend Lotus Hands. This practice is very professional. With this amazing team of acupuncturists, in addition to a clean and relaxing environment, your treatment success has very great potential!" - Trey F. (Google Review)
SHINGLES
"Katherine treated me for the severe, burning, stabbing pain that is associated with Shingles. The first night after her treatment I could sleep for the 1st time in a week. The relief was amazing. I would highly recommend Lotus Hands acupuncture." - Brenda V. (Google review)
NECK & SHOULDER PAIN
“This is the second acupuncturist I’ve been to. By far Mrs. Katherine is the best. She works with you for what’s BEST for you. She genuinely wants to help and make you feel better. She really knows what’s she’s doing and is a very warm person. The office is very clean and tranquil. If you want the best go see Mrs. Katherine.” – Rachael E. (Google source)
"I went to Katherine due to deep pain in my upper back. The pain is in a difficult place to reach by massage, so I tried acupuncture. Simply put, Katherine is a natural healer. She managed to relieve my pain by treating other areas in my body! I'm actually quite amazed at how it worked! She most certainly has a thorough understanding of her trade. In addition, the facility is such a pleasant and calming place to be. I would recommend Katherine to anyone who has ever thought about getting acupuncture treatment." - Rashaad W. Iversen (Google source)
DEPRESSION & ANXIETY
"I was on anti-depression medications for almost 14 yrs. My depression/anxiety worsened after experiencing new life events (personal and family). I saw my psychiatrist who wanted to change my medications and increase the dose of one of the other medications. My medications have historically caused me to feel: fatigued, cognitive dysfunction, low libido, and overall "not the person" I really was (my emotions became dulled). I decided to seek acupuncture to see if this would help. I can not begin to tell you all the positive effects that acupuncture has done for me. I immediately started having relief of my symptoms after the 1st session. I have now completed 9 sessions. I am now completely OFF my medications and feel the BEST I have been in years. I feel like myself again. My depression and anxiety have resolved. I plan to continue acupuncture as a "regular maintenance". I am now a firm believer of this type of practice of medicine. Anthony is VERY knowledgeable and definitely very skillful. He has gone over and beyond to help me. He is very passionate about what he does and provides excellent patient care. He truly cares about his patients. Anthony thank you for all you have done for me! I can't thank you enough for all you have done for me to get my life back!" - JAE Tran (Google source)
"I am still amazed at the results I continue to receive from acupuncture! Despite the numerous recommendations to try Lotus Hands Acupuncture from friends, the thought of paying someone to stick me with tiny needles was less than appealing. After going to numerous doctors and spending an insurmountable amount of money to solve my health challenges, I finally decided to give them a try. I had a ton of anxiety about my appointment, and was having difficulty walking as I was recovering from a cluster of seizures. Most of the anxiety subsided from the moment I walked in the office as there was nothing but peace and calm that greeted me. A gentlemen that introduced himself as Anthony took my husband and I to an immaculately clean room and made sure I was comfortable while filling out the paperwork. Once done, Anthony spent time combing through every detail and stopping to ask questions when he needed to. He also calmly and patiently answered all our questions (and we has many). Anthony was extremely knowledgeable and honest about what his role was. To my surprise it didn't hurt and I left there already able to walk better and with such clarity! He prescribed herbal medicine that I took as prescribed. To my surprise, I was able to sleep that night and all the other nights since then! I have suffered from insomnia for most of my life! I am now averaging 7 1/2 hours of sleep a night. That has NEVER happened! My second appointment, I came in a ton of pain and cramping. Anthony calmly said "We will work on that", and the results exceeded my expectations. He even took the time to explain what was happening and why I was experiencing the intense discomfort. I walked out pain free again! There aren't enough words to express how grateful I am to have discovers the wonders of acupuncture! The results have been life changing! Needless to say, I highly recommend Lotus Hands Acupuncture with Anthony and Catherine Nguyen as they are working miracles in that place! (They would never make such claims but I have to call it like I see it ;). Nina P (Google)
FROZEN SHOULDER
"Went looking for ***RELIEF*** on 11 1/2 months of pure pain and at times crying pain (FROZEN SHOULDER). This really had my life in Termoil. I called made an appointment knowing what Acupuncture is and how it can help being an alternative to medicine at times. I was looking for that relief and what I got was more than what I expected. This was knowledge, understanding of what I have and what I am dealing with and they offered the relief I have been looking for. Within minutes of the Acupuncture I was able to rotate my arms in almost a full circle. This might not seem like much but if you would of seen me I couldn't even move my arm to shake anybodies hand, I would use my left hand due to the pain of movement on my right. So would I recommend this place and what they have to offer. Of course... My wife and I are very thankful for your time." - Nazario (Google source)
ALLERGY
“Kindness and compassion are the right words to describe Lotus Hands Acupunture. Katherine and Anthony helped me to cure the allergies in a very effective way. The allergies were gone right after the first treatment. Natural medicine is the way to go. I highly recomend Lotus Hands Acupunture to any one. Thank you Kathrine and Anthony for listening and treating me with so much care.” - Silvia D. (Google source)
ULCERATIVE COLITIS
"Ms. Katherine at Lotus hands Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine has saved my life without question. I arrived so physically ill, I was legitimately ready to kill myself. I have an autoimmune disease that had been problematic for over a year. Western medicine had done all it could. My last resort of treatment of my ulcerative colitis, might have helped, but it came with the risk of skin cancer. With acupuncture and specially formulated herbal medicine, Ms. Katherine has accomplished more progress in recovery and remission than any other Dr. Over 4 months I have accomplished so much more healing than other types of Medicine were able to give me. She is giving me back my life. And I can't thank her enough. No words can describe my gratitude. God bless them, and thier hard work. Amen" - Krystal V. (Google source)
BELL’S PALSY
”I had Bell’s Palsy for more than 2 months before I came to see an Acupuncturist. It looked really terrible. My family doctor prescribed a medicine for me that cost way too much. A friend of mine recommended me to see Kathrine, and I just gave myself a try. Amazingly, I was be able to close my right eye, no more drooping lip when smile. I was so happy not only with the treatments, but the way she care for me and other patients. She showed me how to massage the affected side face so I can do it myself, and recommended dietary during the treatment time, etc.. I definitely want to come back to her again and highly recommend Kathrine to friends and family members. Thank you so much!” – Alberto H. (Google review)
"I came to Lotus Hands Acupuncture because I heard that they can treat Bell's Palsy. This place is wonderful and caring. They helped me out immensely. Within 10 treatments my face recovered 100%. It's nice to be helped by someone who cares about your health. I highly recommend them to everyone! Thank you Kathrine and Anthony!!" - Nancy N. (Google Review)
"I came to Lotus Hands because I read that it would help me recover from Bell's Palsy. If i'm being completely honest I am extremely scared of needles and I was really nervous! Kathrine and Anthony made sure I was comfortable and are very professional. After every session I saw more improvement with my facial movements and within my 10 treatments I completely recovered. I'm so glad I came here! I will always recommend them!" - Natali S. (Google review)
"Read great reviews so decided to try them out. Second visit. Will post results a little further down the road. So far, Katherine is very professional and friendly. Clinic is new and clean. 🤞Here's to great results!
Update: After 7 visits, I can honestly say that my condition has improved 85-90%. I am quite relieved. 🙆♀️ Here is a picture of Katherine, my acupuncturist. Visit her. She can help you." - Lisa G. (Google Review)
"I decided to try acupuncture after I was diagnosed with Bell's palsy. The condition usually goes away in 6 months, but Dr. Nguyen had me back to normal within 10 days! Highly recommend!" - George H. (Google Review)
DEPRESSION, STRESS
“I have so much pain under my diaphragm. Sometime I felt very nausea and didn’t want to eat at all. I didn’t want to go to work, I just can’t handle it. Friends, coworkers encouraged me to see a doctor, specialists, etc.. They couldn’t find anything wrong with me, so they recommended me to see a psychiatrist. I’ve been taking anti-depression but all my symptoms were always there. Until the day I came to see Kathrine, she spent her time and explained very clearly about my symptoms. She also showed me some exercise movements to help release stress. Treatment went very well, the whole progress gave me real hope, uplifting, felt great to be me again from the first treatment. Thank you so so much Kathrine!” - Sarah S.
FIBROMYALGIA
“I’ve been suffering from fibromyalgia for more than 10 years. I had been to doctors, chiropractor, naturopathic doctor, but none of them seem to give me some relieves. I felt better for few days, but then it all came back as before. A friend of mine suggested me to try acupuncture. I have no idea what acupuncture can do for me, but I just thought maybe I should tried it as a last resort… I will always be thankful for all Kathrine did for me. She really care for others. If I didn’t have a chance to get treatments from her, fibromyalgia will control my whole life. I’ll remember all the tips and dietary recommendations she suggested me to do. Thank you so much Kathrine.” – Maria V.
PINCHED NERVE
"I had a pinched nerve and no one could help me get rid of the pain - not the chiropractors, not the masseuse, not the neurologist. I suffered excruciating pain for six weeks. I could not stand up or sit down without almost unbearable pain. I was ready to go out of my mind. When I decided to try acupuncture, I did not know what to expect. Kathrine and Anthony were able to get rid of my pain in 4 treatments. The pain wasn’t just better – it was gone! They were both so understanding and kind and gave me a lot of good advice on what to do to avoid the pain from coming back. I thank them so much and highly recommend them." - Alice D. (Google source)
KNEE & ELBOW PAIN
"I was always skeptical about acupuncture so I thought I'd share this for those suffering from various types of tendon or muscular pain. I had bad lateral epicondylitis/tennis elbow for the past few weeks and resting for a month+ wasn't an option. I was able to walk out with full ROM on my arm without any pain. Hopefully it won't come back, but either way I'm impressed with the results. I will definitely take some time off.. but just for a few days" - Raymond L. (Clinic Facebook page)
"First time trying acupuncture and the experience was great. The staff was friendly and thoroughly explained what they were doing and why. I came in with knee and elbow pain. After the treatment, my knee and elbow were 100% better and practically pain-free. Highly recommended!" - Brad G. (Google source)
"I broke my foot in December & had trouble walking without a limp & pain after it healed. This caused back and knee pain. I was very skeptical but after the 1st treatment I saw a noticeable difference. Anthony is awesome, very calm and cares. I am looking forward to my next sessions as my pain is minimized and I focus on well being" - Melissa F. (Google source)
STROKE
"I had minor stroke 3 years ago. I couldn't walk without my cane. My brother encouraged me to come to see Anthony & Kathrine at Lotus Hands Acupuncture clinic. I used to have no feeling on my left half body. After few treatments, one morning while taking shower, I felt water was so warm. I was so glad to gain my sensation back. I continued with another 3 treatments ... Oh boy, I am now can walk upstair. I just feel like ME again after 3 years. Thank you so much for your great help!" - Geronimo R. (Google source)
SCIATIC & BACK PAIN
"I got severve Sciatic pain that I can't walk normally. It interrupted my sleeping. I can only turn to one position without pain. This is my first time trying acupuncture and the experience was great. The pain was gone right after the treatment. I regain all my activities back 100%. Highly recommended!" - S.T
"I was having sciatic nerve pain in gluteus and down the backs of each legs. Sought treatment here with Kathrine with acupuncture. This was my first experience with acupuncture and I was a bit skeptical. Friend of mine suggested massage therapy with acupuncture. After 3 sessions I was much better off. I am at 4 sessions and am almost pain free. Try it first before any other forms of treatment. I am so great full for Katherine and the staff for helping me and explaining the benefits of herbal and acupuncture treatments. Try it and you will be glad! Sure beats taking prescription drugs and surgery! Natural all the way! Thank you Lotus Hands for giving me my life back. I would highly recommend to anyone. It made a believer out of me." - Charles C. (Google source)
"When I started going to Lotus I had extreme chronic lower back pain and pain in my right leg. I had gone to a doctor about my back pain and they said I had a herniated disc. They recommended physical therapy but it did not help me. I had never done acupuncture before but I decided to give it a chance and went to this place. I felt like I could feel a difference almost instantly after my first session and I went back for 4 more sessions. As of today I finished my last session and I can definitely say I am standing straighter and feel great. I would highly recommend Lotus to anyone suffering from a herniated disc or anyone with chronic back pain. Thanks so much for everything!" - Kevin M. (Google source)
"In the last 3 months I have spent over $3000 at pain management centers on lumbar injections and drugs. 10 minutes with Anthony and I could walk relatively freely, by the end of the session I was in reasonable shape, good enough to walk out like a 66 year old, not the 96 year old I was like walking in. I will be a regular visitor to Lotus Hands. Exceptional" - Phillip S. (Facebook source)
"I have experienced severe back pain since 1993 due to being involved in several car accidents. I could not sit or stand for more than five minutes without experiencing some type of pain. I woke each day in pain. After my very first session I was able to walk for approximately 2 to 3 hours and only had to sit and rest twice. I always had reservations regarding acupuncture because of my fear of needles but I would recommend acupuncture to anyone experiencing any pain. I also have issues with digestion and the herbs and vitamins I purchased have helped tremendously. Anthony and Kathrine Nguyen are two very amazing people. They provide such personal hands on attention. I'm truly blessed for our paths to have crossed. I would recommend acupuncture over traditional medicine when it comes to issues with severe back pain because of the benefits I've received. I wish I would have tried this years ago..." - Maggie S. (Yelp source)
"Dr Anthony and Katherine are the best.Ive been having back and knee pain ,I couldn't walk and with their help I'm feeling so much better.No more swelling and I can actually walk now.Thank you so much for helping me feel better.I recommend anyone with pain and swelling in the joints to visit Lotus Hands Acupuncture.Thank you Anthony&Katherine Nguyen." - Omala S.

MORNING SICKNESS

HIP & GROIN PAIN
"I came to Lotus after being diagnosed with a hip problem. The problem had created sciatic pain screaming down my leg. Kathrine did an excellent job of not only eliminating that pain in one session but also was able to get my hips to loosen significantly after two treatments. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for acupuncture treatment." - Keith J. (Google source)
"I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't experienced it for myself! Anthony was amazing and made me so comfortable! I left the hospital unable to walk and walked out of my treatment the very next day! Count me in! Lotus Hands is the way AND the life!!!" - K.H. (Facebook source)
FIBROIDS and CYSTS- PROLONGE & HEAVY BLEEDING
"This is where herbal medicine works and there is no equivalent care offered in western medicine. My fibroid cyst is big enough to cause extremely heavy bleeding during periods, but not enough to justify surgery procedures. At one point, I was bleeding for 3 consecutive months due to a reaction to a shot that my OB/GYN gave me. My blood counts and iron counts dropped to 6 or 7. During this whole time, Katherine was my "primary care doctor", giving me herb drinks to curb the bleeding and to boost my blood counts. Since that episode, I have been taken herbal pills that now help me regulate my period. No more heavy bleeding or blood clots or yeast infection. I totally trust Lotus Hands!" - KT Phan (Google source)
FOOT PAIN
"I had severe arch pain from playing soccer in my left foot when I came to see Anthony. He treated me with 5 sessions of acupuncture and had me soak my foot with herbs. I was willing to try anything as I had reluctantly thought my playing days were over. With the treatment & rest I was able to return to soccer within 5 weeks. Thank you so much for getting me back healthy." - M. West (Google source)
FIBROIDS DURING PREGNANCY
" My experience at Lotus Hand Acupuncture is amazing. Found this place because I was having severe fibroid pain in my 16 weeks pregnancy. My OB told me that the fibroid was growing because of the pregnancy and the pain might get worse and worse. She told me it’s safe to take extra strength Tylenol to manage the pain. But the pain got so bad that I could hardly walk with my back straight. My husband did some research and suggested that we might try the acupuncture treatment.
Phoned in on a Saturday morning and Anthony scheduled an appointment on that afternoon. The first session was with Katherine. She was caring, kind and very informative. At the end of the session, I felt so much relieved. My husband drove me home and that evening I was able to help around in the kitchen, playing with my dogs. Everything went back to normal. At week 20, my OB did an ultrasound and found that one of my fibroids has shrunk to half of its original size. That’s really amazing. OB encouraged me to keep doing the acupuncture and moxa treatment.
I’ve been coming back for more treatments and now I’m at my 32 weeks pregnancy and I feel great. I was not annoyed by any pain caused by fibroid and my baby is growing healthily. Thank you very much Katherine and Anthony!" - Na Lin (Google source)
MIGRAINE HEADACHE
"Great service. I come here for my migraines and I really notice a difference. I used get these awful headaches multiple times a week, until I started coming here. No pain for weeks on end. I definitely recommend to anyone suffering from unbearable pain!" - L. Williams (Google source)
THYROID
"Katherine and Anthony are wonderful, they both have made me very comfortable every time. I have hashimoto thyroditis and ever since getting treated here, my energy level has been much better. I used to feel as if I had weights on me all the time. Now I sleep better and I no longer have annoying night sweats." - Cherry B. (Google source)
"I have Hashimoto Thyroiditis and traditional medicine didn't help enough. I tried Acupunture and I back on myself now,full of energy,happy and no anxiety. I recommend it, just give it a try." - Claudia E. (Google source)
QUIT SMOKING
"I came here to use acupuncture to help quit smoking. I had three other programs i was doing, such as 1. not smoking in the first 2 hours of waking or last 2 before sleeping and 2. self hypnosis videos on you tube that worked well. I reduced my smoking then quit all together. Lotus helped me with cravings and reducing my nicotine and with quiting. It has been months since i have been here. I am still not smoking. I do not even think about it. Thank you" - Daniel G. (Google Review)
