"Two years ago I got sick with a very debilitating neuromuscular disease. After it ran its course and I rehabilitated as much as possible, I was left with severe widespread pain. I also became anxious because of the lifestyle changes that came with the illness, and the difficulty I've had supporting my children.

I'm a registered nurse, and over the years I have heard so many success stories from people who have benefited from acupuncture. Knowing that there are so many problems that can be treated with acupuncture, I thought that I would give it a try.

I read about Dr. Lina Hu on her website, and didn't have to search any further. I was so impressed with her education, training, experience, and credentials, that I called and scheduled my first appointment. On the first visit, I knew I had made the best choice. She is caring, kind, conscientious, and gentle.

I have been seeing Dr. Hu weekly for over 6 months now. As a result, I have had a lot of Improvement with my pain, muscle spasms, and anxiety. If you're reading this, chances are you have a condition or problem that Dr. Hu treats. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone, as I feel that she is unsurpassed in her profession. She could make a great change in your quality of life, as she has done in mine."

I started seeing Dr. Hu twice a week, and within 6-8 weeks, she had my headaches cut back by more than 50% and neck/shoulder pain decreased substantially!! I live in Lusby, Maryland and drive all the way up to Arnold to see her, because she has worked wonders on me!! I appreciate her so much, and her amazing acupuncture treatment. She listens to my problem areas, and focuses in on them. She is kind and has the sweetest soul as well, so you know you're in good hands :) Thank you Dr. Hu!!!"

Datadi Davis, Lusby, MD

"I went to visit Dr. Lina Hu last September 2018 due to debilitating pain in my lower back caused by a disc herniation. The pain was excruciating and I could not walk straight nor sleep well. The pain was disrupting my quality of life so much that I was mentally ready for surgery. A family member suggested trying acupuncture, so I found and chose Dr. Hu for her great credentials and reviews. Dr. Hu asked me to trust her and that she would be able to help me. After just five sessions with Dr. Hu, 90% of my pain was gone! I am able to workout again and sleep much better. My wife and I were amazed on how well acupuncture worked on me. Surgery is no longer an option. I have continued to receive treatment from Dr. Hu ever since and plan on remaining under her care as I only continue to feel better. Dr. Hu is a very caring and talented medical professional. I would recommend anyone with similar conditions as mine to seek her out. I have become a true believer in acupuncture because of this amazing experience with Dr. Hu."

Joe Freyre, Arnold, MD

"I was diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel by an Orthopedic Surgeon with the only option being surgery. I searched the internet for alternatives. I found suggestions to try acupuncture first before surgery. My thumb and first two fingers were throbbing and the muscles below my thumb had started to atrophy. My hand was weak and whenever I touched objects my fingers would tingle and it felt like an electric shock. I wanted to try the tradition Chinese acupuncture. A Chinese co-worker put me in touch with Dr. Hu. After about twelve sessions with her, my fingers have stopped throbbing and there is only a very light tingling in my fingers and my thumb but it doesn't hurt like a shock anymore. My hand is stronger and has regenerated muscle. Dr. Hu has made the pain stop and it is so manageable that I have decided not to have surgery. Dr. Hu is so caring and kind. I highly recommend her. She will do everything she can to help you."

Jennie Dennis, Bowie, MD

I discovered Dr Hu online when I visited Maryland and wanted to introduce my friend to the beauty and benefits of acupuncture.I was quite impressed with her education and training in the science. We immediately made a reservation which she handled personally. She also took time to answer questions.

My consultation and session was great. I fell asleep during my session and felt completely rejuvenated after. She was able to answer my questions and I felt comfortable.

She accepts medical insurance and all forms of payment. There is adequate parking.

Becky Achinivu, Boston, MA

"I've been to more than ten acupuncturists over the last 25+ years and Dr Hu is absolutely the best! She is the consumate pro... kind, knowledgeable and responsive to your pain/needs. My highest recommendation!"

Jon Peterson, Annapolis, MD

"Dr Lina Hu is the best Doctor of Acupuncture I have ever had. I have been her patient for over a year for a number of issues that gradually got resolved. She is extremely kind and her bedside manner makes people feel safe and cared for. Thank you for being there for me."

Elizabeti Roldi-McKibbin, Annapolis, MD

"I am very happy to recommend Dr. Lina Hu to anyone who is seeking acupuncture treatment, especially those who, like myself, have never tried it before and may be skeptical of its effectiveness. She is always on time with her appointments, her manner is most welcoming and calming, and her treatment rooms are clean and neat.

I went to Dr. Hu over six months ago because I could not get relief for the pain and numbness in my leg that was caused by slipping on black ice in February of 2015. I tried chiropractic treatments, but the numbness remained. Before I resorted to the opioids and nerve blocks of traditional medicine, my sister (a functional medicine specialist) suggested that, if I tried acupuncture, my numbness might go away. I did; it did. It was like a miracle. I am able to walk again without discomfort.

Dr. Hu's skill in using the appropriate treatment regimen has been so satisfying that I intend to continue working with her to take advantage of her skill in using acupuncture to promote overall well-being. While I still don't know how those needles work, I do get the point--pain relief, renewed energy, and overall well-being."

Richard Gula, Baltimore, MD

"Lina is amazing ! I enjoy the way she engages with me during my sessions. I will recommend her to my colleague. Also the pain in my knees is decreasing .

Well Done !"

Lisa Ferguson, Baltimore, MD

"I have been treated by Dr Lina Hu for over a year now. What brought me to her was frustration over bulging discs in my neck. After my first MRI I was told I would have to have a plate and screws surgically implanted in my neck to help with the debilitating neck pain I was suffering. I thought there had to be another way so I tried physical therapy which always just seemed to be a temporary fix. I then tried steroid injections OUCH! I did it twice... never again. I then went to what I thought was my last resort ... pain management... not big on taking those types of drugs mainly due to all the terrible side effects... so I filled the prescription I was given, but could only take a couple before I began feeling those terrible side effects. I was extremely discouraged and still in the same debilitating pain I had been in all along. I can't say exactly how I came up with the idea to try acupuncture, but I am so happy I did it!!!! I have been impressed with Dr Hu from the first moment I spoke to her. When I called to schedule an appointment, she took all my insurance information and got back to me promptly to discuss my benefits. I made an appointment and was taken in very quickly. She explain thoroughly what was going to take place, and very honestly said, I needed to be patient because it would probably take several visits to experience results, but she did assure me she could help. That is exactly what happened. I have to say honestly I have not had pain in my neck for over a year now. I really don't even think about it. I have treatments that include acupuncture, electric stimulation, and cupping. I know all of that might sound a little scary, but it's really not and she gave me back a quality of life I thought was lost. I now go back to her weekly. I have had other smaller issues over that time and she has been able to help with them as well. She is so knowledgeable, professional, kind and caring.... and provides such a relaxing atmosphere I now call it my "me" time each week. I take that one plus hour every week to just truly relax, which is something many of us don't take the time to do.... but trust me, it is totally worth it!!! If you're looking for an overall more balanced you, Dr. Hu is the one to see. I have, and will continue to recommend her. I can't thank you enough Dr. Hu."

Kelly Knepp, Severna Park, MD

"Absolutely wonderful care, concern, professionalism! A class act and rarity in presentation and bedside manner. I would highly recommend her services. My ailments have dissipated, and the overall reduction in stress has dramatically improved my quality of being. Very grateful!"

Kaili Nichols, Glen Burnie, MD

"I recently had a collision and my primary Dr. asked me if I was interested in trying acupuncture. I had previous collisions and went to physical therapy in the past with minimal relief. To my surprise the acupuncture combined with the cupping (after the acupuncture)has been extremely beneficial !!! I would highly recommend Dr Lina Hu if you are in pain and suffering. You will be thankful."

Allan Cohan, Pikesville, MD

“I am so impressed with Dr. Hu, She has helped me with several longstanding health problems I had. She seems very kind and perceptive. Her methods and facilities are very professional.

I would recommend her to anyone.”

Teri Phillips, Baltimore, MD

“I've been seeking help to address long term back pain using acupuncture for a few years and my usual doctor left recently so I had to find someone new. I'm very glad to have found Dr. Hu. She is extremely effective in reducing my lower back pain and applying acupuncture and cupping to improve my condition. She has a great bedside manner and is very professional. I plan to continue seeing her- she's great!!”

Krisztian Varsa, Baltimore, MD

“I was having so many pains in my lower back I thought I was going to need surgery right of way, so speaking with my wife she said won’t you try acupuncture, so I thought like everyone else it was painful. So giving it a chance that’s when I found Lina Hu acupuncturist in Arnold Md, she is so good at what she does an has been doing it for over 20 years. I must say after just 3 sessions I noticed such an big improvement were I don’t feel a pinch or pain in my lower back like when I first started coming. Lina Hu is the best, thank you so much Mrs Hu.”

Levi Cawthorne, Annapolis, MD

“I can't begin to say how wonderful Dr. Hu was! Her practice is so neat, clean, and relaxing. I did acupuncture therapy for fertility benefits. She was very professional and always on time. I would recommend her to anyone I see! Thanks so much!!”

Jaclyn Wachter, Annapolis, MD

“I was in pain management for a year for a bulging disc in my neck. Pain meds was a temporary fix and am not ready for surgery. Found Dr. Hu and started acupuncture and cupping. What a relief, Dr Hu is my savior. I would recommend Dr. Hu for pain management than going to drugs anytime.”

Michele Morin, Severna Park, MD

“I know it would be cliche to write, but simple words will never convey, nor do justice, to describe the care I have received from Dr. Hu.

I was involved in an auto accident in 2002. I followed the normally prescribed path of medical treatment. Physical therapy had limited results in improving my condition. Pain management therapy via medication was not an option due to medicinal complications. Unfortunately, my tolerance for most pain medication is very low. Additionally, my work requires no room for mental mistakes. With that said, I turned to a more holistic approach.

Having a science background, and being indoctrinated to the idea that modern medicine has all the answers, I was honestly suspicious that acupuncture would help me. I was desperate for some type of relief without the use of strong pain medication. I began researching the various acupuncture practitioners in the area. After reading Dr. Hu's credentials, which are extensive, I decided to give her a try.

Upon arriving, I found Dr. Hu's office to be nice and tidy. Dr.Hu greeted me in a pleasant and professional manner. We then sat down to discuss my condition and the procedures that she would use to help eliminate the pain I was experiencing. Dr. Hu described each process in detail which helped to lessen the small bit of anxiety I may have had.

I give Dr. Hu full credit in helping me with my chronic back pain. Since I've been seeing her, my pain levels have decreased, my stress levels have dropped, and my general outlook has become more positive.

Based on my results, it is my pleasure in recommending Dr. Hu to anyone that is experiencing pain, stress, or general malaise, and is seeking relief. This small, positive review is the least I could do for the gentle, kind, and professional Dr. Hu.”
