I cannot recommend Frank more. He is literally saving me I have what is called a straight spine or a bracing spine there are no curves and this doesn't allow my spinal fluid to flow very easily I have tried everything and after seeing my scoliosis on an X-ray and then correcting it and then getting a full body MRI only to find out my scoliosis correction left me with a straight spine Frank has been the only one who's been able to relieve the tension in my skull back and hip flexors. If you are in any kind of pain and need true help this is your path it is not a one and done shot the more I go the more my body trusts and let's go. Do yourself a favor and book your appointment today!

Dr. Frank has treated me for over 15 years for various things and he is the absolute best. Japanese acupuncture uses smaller needles so it never hurts and Dr. Frank is a master. I refer everyone to him and am so grateful that he has helped me be in optimal health for all these years.

Frank is a true blessing! I entered with a multitude of challenges and now I'm feeling more revitalized than ever! Especially when it came to stabilizing my menstrual cycle and addressing anemia. I'm deeply thankful for his expertise. Frank is commendably straightforward about the adjustments I needed to make to improve my life. I appreciate how he always cuts to the chase. He genuinely invests in people's well-being. He's the real deal!

Frank is kind, friendly, and extremely communicative to help me understand the practice of Japanese acupuncture. I have had lifelong migraine issues and had recently been loss of sensation in my limbs and it was painful to move my neck. He addressed each of my concerns during my first visit, and even that first visit was the best therapy I have ever experienced for my symptoms. I have removed a list of medications from my "diet," and look forward to staying well this way with Frank's help.

It's impossible to overstate how much Frank has helped me. For a year and a half, I have suffered with digestive issues. I've seen so many specialists, did all their tests, got no answers. Every prescription make me sicker. I'd really lost hope. Out of desperation, I turned to acupuncture, and I only wish I had known so much earlier in life how effective it can be. Within weeks, I am feeling normal again. I don't really understand it, but here I am with my life back. I've sent several loved ones to see Frank for a variety of health issues and pain. They have all seen dramatic improvement, the same as I did. Frank is such a lovely human being, and he knows what he is doing. He wants you to be well, and he can set you on the path to get there. If you are reading this, stop wondering if acupuncture can help you. It can and it will. Frank will help you. Give him the chance.

No one will take your health more seriously than Frank at Japanese Acupuncture. He's very knowledgeable and truly gifted at what he does. Whether you are looking for pain relief or a complete lifestyle change, I highly recommend seeing Frank.

SUZANNE M.

Frank is amazing! First appointment is a little intimidating because he is so passionate about what he does and needs to know everything to provide the best options. I am a believer and have recommended him to a co worker and he helped her too! He is the best.

Incredibly experienced Doctor, the needles used are of the highest quality and can barely feel them. Thank you Dr Aoi for your help and support while being challenged with trigeminal neuralgia and stress. I feel like I am on vacation every time I visit and I haven't even gotten the ticket 😊. Highly recommended place to heal. I absolutely love it!

scott G.

I made an appointment with Dr. Frank on the recommendation from a friend. Dr. Frank and his staff were very warm and welcoming. I never felt rushed and was surprised that Dr. Frank took significant time to ask questions to determine the best course of action. I felt the guidance on overall health, diet and natural supplements to be outstanding. Would definitely recommend!

Gerri G.

I visited for a pinched nerve (left side) with pain and numbness from my neck to the tip of my middle finger. A week prior to visiting, I had been on a round of steroids prescribed by my doctor; the pain and numbness returned immediately. I had a total of three sessions and my pain has been completely gone! I have recommended three people who have had similar stories. Go!

Darlene G.

Dr. Frank is the best! I was born with spinal bifida gone under many surgeries and have many chronic pains, I should of gone to see him sooner and avoided myself more pain, by going under surgeries. I am able to do more throughout day because I feel less pain, tension & pressure. I feel more energetic. I feel so much better Everytime I roll out of his office. I highly recommend him.

Pat P.

Had pounding pain in my knee for months. One visit and the pain is gone. I'll be coming back next month for sure.

Edna K.

My experience here with Frank has been all positive! I have problems with pain and stiffness in my hand. I have had such improvement in the mobility and pain in my fingers. Amazing! My husband wasn’t convinced. After two months of twice a week treatment with Shingles pain and bladder cancer his pain has much improved, also. We will continue our care with Frank. He is very knowledgeable about the human body functions and food to eat and avoid. It’s cost us more but the results are worth it to us. We travel 187 miles one way for this wonderful service. Thank you, Frank for you kind spirit.

Julie B.

I am a committed client of Japanese Acupuncture. Frank is incredibly skilled and intuitive . I have been so grateful to have this treatment available to me ,friends and family .

Ken P.

It was amazing. I could barely walk into their office and after Dr. Frank was done it was no problem to move around. I am amazed. Sure wish j had known of Him about 40 years ago.

Lisa T.

Frank's ability to assess a person's health with a simple touch is phenomenal! His philosophy of treating a whole being, and his caring and gentle nature, make him a standout in this world that treats symptoms only and ignores the havoc that traditional Western medicine heaps upon us. I would recommend Frank without exception! If you want to experience the best a body and mind can feel, schedule an appointment today!

Guy N.

After three years on pain meds for thoracic arthritis, I'm now pain free and just said good bye to pain management. Thank you Frank!

Taryn Q

I suffer from shoulder and neck pain due to my scoliosis. I often wake up unable to turn my neck fully. Frank is an incredible healer- i often end up meditating during his sessions because I am so calm and know I am in such good hands. For me, to be able to shut my brain off and relax is normally very hard to do. Frank is that good! I leave some sessions relaxed, and others energized. Just depends on what my body needs. I would come to him every week if I could, but he is honest and says no one needs to come consistently. Just until I am better. Love him!

Denise D.

Frank took more time with me to find out about my injury than 3 previous doctors I saw combined. He takes an approach for your whole body and mind.. not just one place that may be causing pain. He also made me feel like I had some control vs. depending on more drugs and tests, which really helped me mentally overcome my current challenges.

Lauren A.

Came in looking for a more natural healing approach to Lupus, and Frank changed everything. He’s patient, kind, understanding, but also pushes you to listen to your own body and what it needs. He did more for my skin in 5 sessions than any dermatologist has done in almost ten years. I know I can come in and ask directly for “quick” fixes with widespread pain and lack of mental clarity, but mostly I let him take charge. The sessions aren’t cookie cutter—he treats me on my current needs, but it’s all still mindfully based on the overall progression of my healing. He’s the real deal. Thanks, Frank!

Spencer C.

Frank does a wonderful job; the best acupuncture experience I've had coast to coast! He's kind, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and insightful. I wish more doctors were like him and that more patients would give this a chance--it works and Frank is a master of his trade. Plus he's accessible: how many doctors have you been to that allow you to text message them? I'm so thankful I found him.

Tricia R.

Dr. Frank is the BEST!!!I recommend him to everyone I know. Whether you are in intense pain or have a minor cold, he fixes you and fixes you fast.Not only does he do a complete medical worksheet for you on your first visit, but he also offers holistic approaches to your overall health, stays in touch with your needs, helps keeps your body in balance and offers advice you might never have thought of. He is always concerned for you, he makes visits work for your schedule and is always a delight to be around.I've seen Dr. Frank going on 4 yr., I can't imagine him not being in my life.

Donna H.

I was Leary but desperate. Had shingles. Frank treated me about 4 sessions. I was better. I'm a believer now! He takes so much time & educates you. My husband got vertigo & Dr Frank healed that in one visit!This is better than chiropractic. I highly recommend Japanese Acupuncture. Definitely 5 stars!!!!

Charles T.

Frank is without a doubt one of the most skilled Acupuncturists in all of Arizona, if not the entire southwest region. I am confident that he is able to help anyone recover from any ailment. I felt significant results immediately after leaving my first appointment and then the week after I felt even better. Ever since then I have been going every month and it is by far the best 60 dollars spent every month in my budget. Thank you Frank!

Nathaly T.

Frank is super nice!!! He is always looking out for the best of his patients. He’s always recommending what best option is for you. He never lets you walk out without any pain. I went in for pain due to a car accident, but he actually found underlying issues. He’s been improving my health and i didn’t even know. I trust him so much and will never go anywhere else. What he charges is a DEAL! Do not go to anyone that isn’t licensed or knows about biology as he does. He literally knows everything. He amazes me everyday.

Alex R.

I was fed up & completely gave up on western medicine and the fact that no doctor or specialist could help with my condition. I decided acupuncture would be my last shot to treat me. Frank exceeded my expectations. There was a drastic change for the better with my issue. Frank listened and took my concerns into consideration in order to better treat my condition. Frank himself is wonderful & knows exactly what he is doing; that is very reassuring. He offers great insight. I highly recommend Frank at Japanese Acupuncture!

ArmaniI I subscribed Moreno do a Taki C.

I just want to share my Experience with Acupuncturists Frank Aoi was the best ive had the most honest and concerning Dr. Ive ever met even after my treatment he sat down with me for an extra 45mins talking to me about my diet my anxiety and to see if my back was relieved of pain he stated stand up and walk for me notice a difference i was pain free with in an hour after going to my pcp and specialist for months for my 5 bulgded disk anxiety sleep apnea Dr.Frank Aoi Cured me with one $70 Visit best Money ive ever spent being pain free i will recommended anyone to this Concerning and well trained acupuncturists

Corwin B.

For over 25 years I have been utilizing acupuncture as a form of holistic health. Frank is the first acupuncturist to ask me about my diet. All those years, no one asked me that as the first question. Your gut controls your entire body, treat it well and it will keep you healthy. I highly recommend Japanese Acupuncture for those who are seeking a better alternative to western medicine and wester treatment as a whole.

Diana R.

I simply made a call for info to this place. Ot was the first call i made in my steps to recovery. This Dr. Was honest fair and very sincere in answering my questions. Honesty alone gets top rating in my book.

John S.

Frank has helped me with my low back pain and sciatica in just a couple sessions.

Angelica W.

Frank services have helped me tremendously throughout the 4 years I have been seeing him. He is an awesome person.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Frank and my acupuncture experience! I was lucky enough to see first hand how amazing Frank is at his craft of Japanese Acupuncture. My husband was referred to Frank from a friend who had very successful pain relieving sessions. My husband started going to Frank in February of 2021 for bulging disc issues. He was in severe pain and discomfort. Within a few sessions Frank had him more comfortable on the road to recovery. Frank explained everything and was so informative. My husband has made a full recovery in just a few weeks thanks to Frank. He took all of his advice from diet and exercise to stretching and posture.

Now it was my turn. I have seen Frank for a few different issues and he has honestly helped with them all. From anxiety and shoulder pain to internal infection. I really enjoy going and always leave feeling better! He is sweet and compassionate and the acupuncture is painless. I always learn something from him every time I go.

So worth the drive, we travel 30 minutes and highly recommended Frank!

Lonnie R.

Frank is the best. I go in with pain and come out feeling great.

Frank has the most gentle, healing touch! He is a godsend

Erika V.

When I started seeing Dr. Frank my panic attacks were spiraling out of control. It was affecting my sleep and preventing me from being able to function day to day. I worked with Dr. Frank for 6 months. In those six months he healed my anxiety, mind, body and soul.

I am forever grateful of Dr. Frank and how he impacted my life. Not only is he a wonderful Doctor, he is also a marvelous human being!

Carina B.

I've been seeing Frank for 5 years. Whatever I have gone for each treatment is thought out and he pinpoints the pain, relieving me of my pain, making my money well spent. Frank always leaves me with tips on how to improve my overall health. His down to earth personality makes you feel at home every time. Thank you Frank for all you do.
