I have been going to Uzi for treatments every time I have an injury in the past 5 years. Uzi is attentive and caring , he also explain what he is doing and why . Lately I was suffering from inflammation and pain in my knee , so I decided to ask Uzi to treat me again, and after 3 sessions my knee started to heal and today I took my first exercise walk with my wife after 3 months. I was able to do it without pain . This was an amazing feeling to get my knee back , thank you!
Before seeing Uzi I hadn’t been able to sleep lying down in over a month, with constant pain radiating from my neck down through my shoulder and elbow. After my first session with him I was immediately able to lay flat without that intense pain. After each session my recovery continued improving, and he was always very much in tune to where we had left off and what progress had been made. I would highly recommend Uzi to anyone, it was my first encounter with acupuncture and it certainly exceeded my expectations.
Dr. Chen was absolutely incredible. After a surfing accident, I suffered from a strained MCL. Dr. Chen diagnosed my injury methodically and got to work. Prior to the treatment, I could hardly get in the door. Post initial treatment, I was almost running out the door. Dr. Chen got me confidently back on my feet within a few days and back in the water within a few weeks. I would highly recommend this practice and Dr. Uzi Chen to anyone that is looking for acupuncture and an actual healing touch.
You won't find a better doctor to treat your problem. After appointments with 18 different practitioners, Dr Chen found the issue that has been causing me chronic pain for over a year. He's one of a kind that you don't find very often. Extremely knowledgeable in multiple modalities and treats his patients as if they were his own children. He gets 10 stars in my book.
I had the most incredible experience with Uzi. He is very experienced and knowledgeable. I loved how he explained every step of the way with so much patience. When we started the process I couldn’t walk and could barely move and suffered tremendous pain. After only 3 sessions I could finally move again and walk normally. Uzi is like a magician. I highly recommend his treatment.
We’ve been coming to Sean for a couple of years now for my two teenage daughters who are competitive volleyball players. Our experience has been nothing short of awesome. My eldest tore her acl recently. Sean was able to get the swelling down and the leg straight before her operation, which is critical for the best prognosis, way ahead of schedule for someone with that sort of injury. Even the surgeon was surprised by her progress. We also use Sean for general injuries and post workout stiffness. He is friendly, trustworthy, interesting to talk to and dedicated to his craft. Highly recommend.
Sean helped me tremendously with chronic neck pain which was radiating down my arm and a bad case of chronic tennis elbow on top of it. It was incapacitating, and I had tried several other types of treatment prior to seeing Sean. Thank you. I am very grateful!
I was a coach at a gym where Sean used to train and was aware of his practice. When my back went out on my moving boxes I went to him Immediately. The best part was he was very quickly able to give me a diagnosis of what was wrong and what the next steps were for me to recover. He made it feel better the day of the treatment and I was fully recovered in less then a week.
Uzi is an amazing practitioner who listens to your issues and helps to try to fix whatever is bothering you with acupuncture. I highly recommend him!!
I took my son here because he had an elbow injury due to baseball. They were to patient and kind to him (he's 13 and was a little nervous). After just a month of aggressive treatment, he is feeling much better and can't wait to start playing baseball again.
Dr Chen is one of the best profesional I worked with ! He solved my back and shoulder issues and I highly recommend him !
I highly recommend Uzi, he is a highly skilled accupanturist and super knowledgeable. He has treated me several times and was able to restore me back into full activity, while all along educating me on his assumptions and the path of treatment. Thank you Uzi!!
Uzi is amazing! I came to him for acupuncture when I was 5 months pregnant with back pain and he got me back to feeling like my best self. After giving birth I had round 2 of back pain, which he is currently helping me kick to the curb. He has been awesome with making my schedule work with his, always making sure I’m comfortable, and most importantly taking all precautions to be clean and sanitary during this crazy pandemic. Thank you Uzi!!!
Had chronic pain on my Achilles tendon for a few years, which was aggravated after doing a PRP treatment. 3 months after the PRP treatment I wanted to give acupuncture a shot. I was shocked at my results after my first treatment(w/electric stim), as it felt about 60% better by the next day. That in itself merited a 5 star review, but I wanted to wait until I got a sense of the long term effects. Over the course of about 10-12 treatments, each treatment reduced the sensitivity and pain. That complimented with some strengthening exercises recommended by Sean, I was able to complete a few back to back 2-3 mile hikes with 30lb backpack(toddler) without any significant discomfort during and afterwards. I'm probably 99%, and although I haven't gone back to full aggressive running activities because of caution, I'm confident I'll get there, and more than happy with what has been achieved thus far. I've also appreciated that Sean does this full time, which provided more flexibility in his schedule, as well as what I imagine is a greater commitment to good service. Also appreciated that you deal with him directly for all matters. No going through a front office. Personally, he is attentive, listens, and responds. Would strongly recommend him based on my personal experience.
I highly recommend Uzi Chen. I have been to a few acupuncturists in my lifetime and I have to say Uzi is the best! I broke my knee cap (patella) in 5 pieces and was having a very hard time with my recovery after surgery. I developed arthrofibrosis (a lot stiffness and scar tissue). Luckily I found Uzi and he has been helping me on my journey back to being able to walk again and function like normal. He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, positive and kind. He explains everything that he is doing, he asks questions and he listens. He truly has your best interest at heart, which I very much appreciate. He has helped me regain quad strength (I did my first straight leg lift in his office!), range of motion, and less stiffness in my knee. Thank you Uzi!!!
As a very "right brained" math/science person, I'm always skeptical about things like acupuncture and needling; however, I figured at this point it was worth a shot due to how much pain I was in (other treatments such as the chiropractor, yoga and massage didn't help). Prior to going to see Dr. Uzi Chen, my lower back was so bad I'd have to brace myself and awkwardly twist to pick up my shoes or throw out a bag of garbage. Also, my shoulder was so locked up I couldn't sit behind a desk or work without constant pain. Dr. Chen took the time to evaluate what he thought would be beneficial for me, and absolutely went above and beyond - if he felt I needed a bit more treatment that day, he'd continue working with me well past my time slot at no extra charge. He discovered my shoulder pain was referred pain from tightness in my neck, and helped reduce the stress and tension in my lower back. This has been literally life altering for me. I can now bend down without pain and work for hours without issue. I absolutely recommend him as an acupuncturist and encourage anyone with muscular issues to set up an appointment with him. Simply put, Dr. Chen is phenomenal.
I've had an injury for two years that a chiropractor, a physical therapist, and a podiatrist couldn't help. I finally saw a breakthrough with Dr. Uzi and his team. Very happy so far with how the pain has been subsiding over time.
I saw Sean a week ago for an acupuncture treatment. I have had major lower back pain for 5 weeks and had 7 Chiropratic treatments elsewhere. My experience with Sean was tremendous I felt that it really helped me plus Sean showed genuine concern for my recovery. I am going back hopefully today. Thanks Sean!
So impressed!
"From being a massage therapist for the past four years, I have accumulated a lot of imbalances in my body: chronic shoulder and neck pain, crepitus and tenderness in my wrists and elbows, deviations in my spine and overall postural imbalances... With Sean, so many of these issues have been addressed and within only a few sessions, entirely alleviated! I owe so much to him, not only for helping me heal and improve my overall work and athletic performance, but for his consistent success with helping my massage clients as well! Without a doubt, I highly recommend Sean."

Achilles Tendonosis Therapy
"Achilles tendonosis became chronic after I participated in the 3-day walk last November. Since then I have had deep tissue massage, acupuncture (from another therapist), X-Ray, MRI, physiotherapy, and finally met Sean. After my first treatment with him, I got up the following morning and could walk pain-free. I couldn’t believe it!! Since then, and its only been a few weeks, Sean has been totally tenacious and dedicated in his pursuit of correcting my soft tissue issues. He has stayed late on a number of occasions to add an extra treatment or show me new stretches, his knowledge never fails to impress me, and is is always current. In addition to Sean’s considerable professional competence, he is very compassionate, entertaining and fun to be with. I recommend Sean very highly."

Almost completely healed my back in 1 week
"Dr. Uzi is magical. I hurt my back in the same spot that I hurt it 7 years ago and it took me four months to recover from my herniated disc. This was only my 2nd session with him in one week, and I have 90% mobility in my back. I am so surprised by my quick recovery, but at the same time, he took as long as I needed in sessions to feel better and even offered extra time with the acupuncture needles in my back, as well as healing tape. I was very skeptical because his prices were $20 or more over the normal prices, but now that I have almost completely healed my back in 1 week, I am never going anywhere else. I can now walk my dogs with ease this week, and that’s what makes me happy."

Acupuncture Helped Me After Two Motor Vehicle Accidents
"Last year at this time I was walking in my local Costco parking lot when I was hit by a car. After a few days of awful pain, I turned to Dr. Uzi Chen to find some relief. I followed his regime for at least 3 months when finally my pain disappeared, Would you believe, this year my car was hit - with me in it - and again I suffered horrible pain. Dr. Uzi to the rescue. If you find yourself in any type of pain predicament, I highly recommend you going to the clinic for the help you need. It works!. Thanks Dr. Uzi."

Resolved my back spasms on the first visit
"Dr. Uzi Chen resolved my back spasms on my first visit. I've had these spasms for a year, before a physical therapist recommended getting E-Stim to see if that would fix it. Dr. Uzi Chen was both professional and informative the entire process. Prior to the visit, I was unfamiliar with acupuncture as a form of treatment. After this visit, I feel like I've learned how acupuncture can treat the body. I highly recommend this practice!"

Dependable acupuncturist who listens to you and helps you recover
"I have been seeing Sean for almost an year now. He is one of the most gifted accupunturists in the San Diego county. He has helped me recover from multiple issues that come with the ups and downs of life and I am very much thankful for that. If you are looking for a dependable accupunturist who listens to you, guides you and helps you recover, I highly recommend Sean."

Uzi was awesome. I was training for the Boston marathon and he helped me recover from injuries during training and through his treatment and guidance I was able to finish the marathon. Highly recommend working with Uzi. He is enthusiastic and respectful.
