Natural Care Acupuncture & Holistic Medicine

I feel so grateful to have found Yinghua. I suffered an organ prolapse after an injury and was afraid I would need to get surgery. My emotions and energy were low. I had no idea if acupuncture could help, but I emailed Natural Care Acupuncture and Yinghua invited me to come in for a consultation. I am SO GLAD I found her. With a combination of herbs and treatments, I’m feeling significantly better. She’s thorough and takes what’s going on with your body seriously. I have met with other acupuncturists, but Yinghua’s treatments seem to have had the strongest positive outcome of any.

Ying is wonderful — after seeing various good acupuncturists over the years, I’ve settled with Ying. She’s very professional, listens well, offers custom herbal supplements as an addition to your treatment and has experience with most conditions or will research and think about new ones for your next session. While I believe she’s best known for assisting with pain management, I primarily see her for stress and exhaustion from my job and fast-​paced life and always leave very relaxed and refreshed. When I do have a specific issue with pain (lower back from scoliosis, upper back tension, sore throat, headache, etc.) she has always successfully resolved it for me, usually with one treatment if I’ve been seeing her regularly and request treatment at the onset of the symptom. In addition, her rooms are clean and comfortable, her schedule offers flexibility with Saturday appointments and she uses TDP mineral heat lamps to assist with the treatment which I find increase the benefits of the session.

I initially saw Yinghau over a year ago when my bladder started acting up and I was running to the restroom every 10 – 15 minutes. It appeared my only option was going on an overactive bladder medication at age 32. I tried changing my diet, seeing a chiropractor and finally a urologist that said I was a medical mystery to him. Knowing if I went on a medication I would be on it the rest of my life I was desperate to try anything else. I had only tried acupuncture once many years prior and did not see any real benefit to it, but Ying completely changed my viewpoint and now I trust her with any ailment that crosses my path. I said for one month I would do whatever she told me to and if it didn’t help I would stop going. It took going twice a week for 2 weeks for me to see any improvement, but just like flipping a switch, once my system came back in balance I not only could go several hours without using the restroom, but my overall health improved. I now see Ying regularly and she has additionally helped me with a sprained ankle, headaches and cold/​flu. If you are serious about bringing your health into balance or have a specific issue as I did, trust her, be patient and I have no doubt you will feel better!

Dr. Ying is fantastic! I started treatment with her while 7 months pregnant. My main issues were swelling in my ankles and poor circulation in my legs, causing quite a bit of discomfort. After one visit, I could see and feel improvement. After several visits, I’ve noticed amazing results. I’m now 9 months pregnant and feel better than I did 2 monts ago. I also really appreciate how sensitive Dr. Ying has been to the fact I’m pregnant, making necessary adjustments to my treatments and offering helpful advice. I highly recommend Dr. Ying.

I have seen Yinghua 2 times so far. She is amazing and had increased my energy and helped with my body letting go of a few extra pounds that would not leave!

I was most impressed by Dr. Ying’s dedication and passion for her art and her patients. For example, when my mother’s symptoms were somewhat perplexing, she told us that she had spent all day thinking about the issues and possible etiologies. Then, she made an herbal mix tailored specifically for my mom with detailed instructions of how to take them and what kind of response to expect. She is flexible and as she listens carefully, she will individualize her remedies for your needs.

Dr. Yinghua Li is a hidden treasure. I’ve been to many acupuncturists in my life, but never one who has been as effective and thorough and shows such consistent and immediate changes as Yinghua.
I’m an attorney and moved to Denver a little over a year ago after graduating law school. I work at a desk, hunched over a computer screen or papers for upwards of 12 hours a day. As much as I tried to maintain a better posture and stand up every so often to stretch, after about a week of this, my shoulders would become so tight and my neck so stiff that I sometimes woke up unable to move my head.
On top of that, when I first moved out to Denver, the aridity, the long hours at work, and the stress of a new place caused hormonal problems which lengthened my menstrual cycle from 30 days to 60 days.
Prior to meeting Yinghua, I desperately used hot and cold packs on my shoulders and got massages whenever I could to relieve my shoulder and neck pain, but even those things were stop-​gap measures that merely alleviated the pain temporarily without any further results. I went to see my OB/​GYN about my menstrual cycle, but she merely told me, even after several months of irregularity, that we should wait and monitor to see if it evened out.
Ever since the first time I met Yinghua, however, I haven’t had to use any hot/​cold packs and I stopped getting therapeutic massages altogether. I don’t need them anymore. The best thing about seeing Yinghua is that the results are immediate. Other acupuncturists had always told me that it might take a couple sessions before I noticed a difference, but that’s apparently not true! With Yinghua, she puts the needles in and then immediately asks me to move my neck and see how it feels. There’s almost always an immediate release. She also took my hormonal issues seriously and treated me for them, and within two months, my cycle was back to 30 days.
Just fyi, unlike some acupuncturists, who practice localized acupuncture (i.e., they treat problems at the source of the pain), I noticed that Yinghua uses the meridian system. That is, if you’re having problems in your shoulders, she’ll put the needles in your wrists at points that link up to your shoulders, and the intelligence of the needle travels up through the channels to relieve pain at the source. I was pretty incredulous at first, but such huge fan now.
I also know she’s treated friends and acquaintances of mine for fibromyalgia, insomnia, and disc degenerative disease, among others, all with surprising and wonderful results. She’s the real deal.
