Our Story

Welcome to YZ Acupuncture and Wellness, a quiet healing sanctuary conveniently located in Central Pasadena. Our philosophy is that the human body is a precious temple full of power and knowledge and flows best when in harmony with nature. Treatments at YZ inspire the body to heal and align naturally with acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, herbal medicine and massage. We also offer luxurious skin care therapies which integrate natural methods and products to achieve an attractive and healthy appearance.
 

Qi Gong Master Yu Zhang founded this acupuncture clinic, bringing Medical Qi Gong and Chinese medicine to the West in the 80's. Dr. Z had a true gift of healing and open-hearted listening to the needs and goals of his patients. He was one-of-a-kind and is greatly missed by his many devotees.  His healing protocols and philosophies remain an integral piece of the YZ practice. Our staff is comprised of educated and talented practitioners who are gentle, compassionate, and highly skilled. We offer discounted treatment packages and are covered by the majority of out-of-network insurance companies.  Your health is our greatest priority!
 

This world is so wonderful, full of new technologies and discoveries, information and ideas - we are lucky.  But with these life changes come many new health issues and concerns including greater cases of chronic stress affecting the mind, body and spirit.  Acupuncture is a great way to treat these modern issues: digestion, menstruation, chronic illness, allergies, dermatology, autoimmune disease, flu, stress, anxiety, depression, hormone balance, tiredness, pain, and inflammation.  In addition, acupuncture is great for promoting high levels of relaxation.  At YZ Acupuncture and Wellness we encourage  integrated healing- Eastern medicine with Western medicine.
