Lucy Postolov, L.Ac

I had a wonderful experience at Lucy’s office yesterday! The office was very clean and staff professional. Lucy’s extensive knowledge and experience as a practitioner was quite evident during the exam and treatment. I left feeling relaxed, and in less pain. Looking forward to going back!

I had a problem with a torn rotator cuff for about 5 years. I had gone to a few physical therapists for about 2 years but was never able to get it healed and feeling well. I had lots of sleepless nights and the pain was always there no matter how much icing or therapy I had. After years of pain a good friend recommended I go try out an acupuncturist and they sent me Lucy’s direction. I saw Lucy for 3 months and the results were remarkable after only 2 or 3 sessions. By week 4 I was able to sleep without pain, by week 8 my shoulder completely stopped aggravating, and by the last session I was able to start strengthening my shoulder without consistent flare ups. Lucy is wonderful but her acupuncture treatment is remarkable! If you have thought about trying acupuncture, do yourself a favor and call Ms. Postolov. Thanks Lucy!

How fortunate I feel to have Lucy Postolov in my life!
I was told by a neurologist that I would be crippled without surgery. While waiting for an epidural to relieve my pain I went to Lucy & my pain immediately went away. Lucy made no promises & said that I might need surgery down the road but I am happy to delay the procedure for as long as possible. I have been Lucy’s patient for over 6 years now (no surgery needed)! With her medical background & her Chinese Medicine knowledge, Lucy combines the very best of both philosophies.
I will never go to any other acupuncturist. I trust Lucy completely & love her honesty, & her care & concern for her patients.

I’ve been seeing Lucy Postolov for at least 12 years. She has helped me with so many issues — I honestly don’t know what i’d do without her. She is a such a knowledgeable person with a calming spirit and positive healing energy. I don’t travel without her herbs either. — I swear by them and i know they keep me from getting sick.

I first met Lucy at a holistic conference. Though she was on a panel of professional practitioners, she definitely stood out with her knowledge and skill as an acupuncturist and Master Chinese Herbalist. When I came to have a treatment with her, I was again impressed with her brilliance and excellent care. I highly recommend her!

Lucy Postolov is not only an exceptional acupuncturist, she is a remarkable woman. I learned that not only is she a wealth of knowledge in Chinese Medicine to the point where she has designed her own herbal formulas, but she was first a traditional doctor with extensive background in stem cell research as well. This is a smart woman! I love that her knowledge isn’t limited to just acupuncture. She truly looks at the whole person and her kindness and bedside manner makes her one of the leading acupunctures in the city in my opinion. If you are frightened by acupuncture needles, you need to see Lucy, because it’s true, not all «needlings» are created equal and her technique is extremely gentle and painless.
What I love the most is that her office is a one-​stop shop for fertility, weight loss and other conditions, but she is known within the medical community for supporting oncology patients with compassion and true concern. She has been able to assist me with stress relief, weight management and sciatic pain remarkably well and I highly recommend her to all my friends. I also think she’s one of the few practitioners who carries the latest inch-​loss system, Arasys… which is a great way to strengthen the muscles and burn fat without hundreds of hours in the gym. I’ve used it and it saved my core! :)
I also agree with one of the other reviews that the office is very relaxing and the office manager, Ron, makes the visit that much more personal. Definitely worth a visit!

I’ve been seeing Lucy for over ten years! I go in whenever I start to feel sick, because I know her treatment will bring me back to balance and prevent the illness. She also has cured mysterious symptoms other doctors couldn’t treat — such as a super low white blood cell count, a strange inflammation on my achilles tendon, and swollen joints. She is a miracle worker. Ron, her assistant, is fantastic too, always makes me feel welcome and taken care of. I have been to many acupuncturists over the years, and Lucy is my absolute favorite.

Lucy is an expert acupuncturist and a delightful doctor who shows genuine concern for her patients’ well being. Since I started seeing Lucy several years ago, I have noticed a significant improvement in my physical and psychological health. I was referred to her through a family friend, for what started out as just a general visit to work on my stress levels and boost my immune system. I later started asking her to help me with specific medical issues, and she has always been very open to helping me with whatever ailments were bothering me.
During our sessions I find myself so completely relaxed and afterwards I feel rejuvenated. Her practice is so healing and restorative, its almost like magic.
I highly, highly recommend her to anyone and everyone! There are so many amazing benefits to acupuncture, and Lucy is a brilliant acupuncturist!
(And I’ve been to several other acupuncturists, Lucy is the top.)
Also — her office manager, Ron, is delightful and makes the office space very inviting and comfortable!

Been seeing Lucy for over a year and couldn’t be happier. In fact my whole family has gone to her at some point or another. She really has helped us all so much and we completely trust her and her opinion. She is so knowledgeable and has blown us away with her ability and the benefits of Accupuncture. We recommend her to all our friends.

I have found Lucy Postolov to be an excellent Acupuncturist who has a genuine concern for my well-​being. She has a sincere and pleasant personality as does Ron, the Office Manager, making everyone feel welcome and comfortable.
I had two major health problems when I started seeing Lucy in 2009: chronic fatigue/​muscle aches for 8 years and chronic lower back pain for 4 years.
I needed to nap after being up for about 6 hours and was unable to work full-​time in an office. I was not diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome because I did not have the additional symptoms.
Now I am working a 9 – 80 schedule, without needing a nap during the working day.
I could not sit for more than 10 minutes without pain which became worse as I continued to sit. Standing/​walking breaks didn’t help. I had to lie down for at least an hour. I had been to many different physical therapists where I did get help with walking and standing a while, but not sitting. And my occupation requires a great deal of sitting. This pain could not be treated surgically.
With the acupuncture treatments, I was able to sit at first for 2 hours without pain and sometimes 8 hours. However, I had a relapse after injuring myself moving to a new apartment and was back to only 10 minutes of pain-​free sitting. With acupuncture treatments, again, I could sit comfortably for 2 hours in chairs with soft padding.
As a complication, I started having hip pain and was unable to lie on my side and have acupuncture on the site of the back pain. Lucy then treated my back indirectly, so I could lie on my back during acupuncture, which she said would be around 70% to 80% as effective.
At that point, I started seeing an excellent new physical therapist for hip and back pain as well as continuing acupuncture. I believe that Lucy’s acupuncture treatments made my back more amenable to physical therapy. I was then able to sit for over 8 hours a day without pain in padded chairs.
Chronic pain and chronic fatigue are known to be difficult to treat successfully. Lucy’s acupuncture treatments took me from disability to being able to work again for pay in my profession.

I first started seeing Lucy in 2007. I started to feel immediate results from her treatment and have been a huge proponent of the healing benefits of acupuncture since her treatment. I tried to see other acupuncturists when I wasn’t in LA but no one had the same effects that Lucy had. I went back to her at the beginning of the year and feel the effects on my overall wellness. She’s attentive, calming, and intuitive.

Lucy is an incredibly gifted and intuitive healer. She has helped my family heal and recover through allergies, anxiety, chronic ear infections, pregnancy support, immunity support and overall health and well being, on a physical and spiritual level. She has been able to sense emotional issues without me telling her or having any physical sign of and get to the source. She is very special and honest. She is amazing and if you are ready, open and willing to look within yourself to allow healing to happen, she will get you there. Since she was a medical doctor first, I feel like I get the best of both worlds. She is a master of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. I would recommend her to anyone!

I’ve been going to Dr Postolov for over a year now. She is an amazing person, acupuncturist, doctor and healer. She is extremely nurturing and caring woman. I came to her after I survived stage 4 Lymphoma cancer. The Chemotherapy was extremely hard on my body. I hadn’t had my period in 1 ½ years and through blood work and exams the doctors determined I was in premenopause at the age of 37 and would not be able to have children. They were encouraging me to start hormone replacement therapy. I was also suffering from depression. After evaluating me and my blood work Dr Postolov predicted within 2 month i’d have my period back. She began treating me with acupuncture and chinese herbs and she was right, within 2 months my menstrual cycle came back, my depression went away and and a year later my period has be on time every month and I have felt happy, healthy, and cancer free. I continue to see Lucy on a weekly basis to keep my body balanced and healthy. I like her approach because she understands both the eastern and western approach to health. So if you are dealing with cancer or any major health issue she knows how to work with your doctors. She also treats patients at Cedar Sinai Hospital. She is highly educated in both western and eastern medicine. You can rest assure you are in the most skilled and loving hands. –Brittany Daniel–

First time i came to Lucy in 2010 i’ve been suffered from my back/​shoulder pain.
After very first session of acupuncture I felt serious relief and after 3^rd my pain never came back.
Then I came to her with the several more serious health problems and now I feel as if Lucy brought me physically and spiritually back to life, my energy has increased and I feel great !.
Lucy is a miracle Doctor (with the capital letter «D») having a strong competency and restorative powers with the perfect combination of western/​eastern knowledge and skills.
I highly recommend Lucy Postolov.

I’ve been going to Lucy Postolov for eight months and she is a highly skilled and expert Accupuncturist. She has tremendous insight into the human condition both physically and emotionally and treats the entire person mind, heart, soul and body. She understand very quickly the issue (s) and knows exactly how to treat it. Her western MD is an added bonus. Ron runs the office with kindness and generosity of spirit. It is a pleasure to spend time there and also know you ae being healed and cared for.

Lucy Postolov is one of the greatest acupuncturists. My health and the quality of my life have significantly improved under her care. Lucy was a former MD in Neurology, which provides her patients with an extraordinary knowledge based in both western and eastern medicine. Her care for her patients is above and beyond any health practitioner. She is a brilliant, caring, compassionate, incredibly creative and talented acupuncturist. The office is friendly and well managed by Ron.

I went to this woman for help with my cancer. In so many words, she told me it was my fault for getting cancer and would be my fault if I coudn’t be cured. Then she hands me a $ 250 bill. Very toxic person. Avoid!
