Double Happiness Health - Acupuncture San Francisco's Online Review Report Card

This is gonna be a long one, but I’m a talker 🤪. I was a patient here for around 2 months or so before moving back to the East Coast. I’m a chef that really ran myself into the ground and ended up having terrible tension headaches/migraines and insanely tight neck/back muscles due to issues with discs in my spine and my body staying stuck in “fight or flight mode.” I had the pleasure of working with Beth and she was absolutely amazing! After only 2 sessions receiving her treatments, the muscle tension in my shoulders had nearly gone away completely! A few doctors wanted to just push Botox on me but I really wanted to find a more holistic approach to healing and Beth had really opened my eyes to that possibility through her amazing expertise with acupuncture. She really took the time to listen to my concerns and tried multiple tactics such as herbal medicine to help with my head/body tension. I cannot recommend her and this place enough if you’re looking for a healthy and holistic way to maintain your health/aid in the body’s natural healing abilities.

Christine Friel is a gifted healer. Skillful, intuitive, and compassionate. Always feel seen, heard and cared for.

I am so glad I found Double Happiness. Every time I leave I feel great, and they adjust my treatment as needed to help me. I can't recommend everyone at Double Happiness enough! It asks about the cost below, and honestly, I wouldn't care. That's the kind of care I've gotten.

Double Happiness is a peaceful oasis with skilled healers. Brooke was easy to talk to, partnered well with me on the issues I was bringing related to health and menopause, and delivered sensitive, effective acupuncture, cupping and gua sha to help with muscle stiffness and neck pain. Thank you!

The Radiance Ritual I had with Ilana was one part luxury and, interestingly enough, one part transcendental! The facial itself was sooo relaxing and enjoyable (think full body tingles), that when the acupuncture needles were placed, I think it helped me slip into an even deeper state of tranquility. It was my first time experiencing facial acupuncture, and I’ll admit that it does take a moment to get used to the feeling of needles in your face, but once I relaxed into it, it was very profound. If you’ve had any acupuncture before, you know what I mean - the colors behind your eyes, that sense of energy shifting through your body - it was all of this, but amplified! I expected the treatment to be luxurious and for my skin to glow afterward (it absolutely did. My wrinkles were instantly softer and I left with my face looking truly radiant), but what I didn’t expect was the extra deep, meditative effect it had on my body and soul, even more so than many of the "normal" acupuncture sessions I've had. I left feeling transported, calm, and luminous. My glowing, dewy skin was just an extra bonus!

I've been getting acupuncture from Christine Friel for years. A truly gifted healer, she's kept me going, helped me navigate heath issues with compassion, skill and positive results. Today I had an acupuncture facial. Transformative. Otherworldly good. With curated plant based products, facial massage, light therapy, this was bliss I didn't know I needed, a facelift, not just a facial. Thank you, Christine.

Christine is out of this world. I have been seeing her for 9+ years for acupuncture and just started working in her new facial acupuncture and cupping services which I am loving so far.

I've been going to Double Happiness Health for acupuncture for over 10 years now and I can't say enough about how wonderful Christine, Katie and the whole team are! I recently tried the cosmetic facial acupuncture and it was a treat! It blends facial massage and targeted acupuncture for an anti-aging effect. I loved the face & neck massage--I tend to hold a lot of tension in my jaw and it melted away. I didn't fall asleep during the facial acupuncture like I normally do during regular acupuncture, but afterwards, I could see that it had a relaxing effect on my starter lines between my eyebrows and around my smile. I'm not planning to do any traditional cosmetic procedures so I would use this as one of the tools to manage my skin as I get older.

I got the Radiance Ritual full package with Katie and it was absolutely incredible! The whole experience was gentle, relaxing, and left me feeling radiant and refreshed. I have had acupuncture and facials separately before, but never combined like this. It was such a unique and special treatment. Katie blended a variety of techniques including gua sha, bo jin, cupping, light therapy, and acupuncture on my hands and feet along with my face and head. The combination felt restorative and balancing. I also loved that they used clean beauty products that felt nourishing on my skin. Every step from cleansing to massaging was thoughtfully done and left my skin glowing. Overall, it was an awesome and unique experience that I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience getting acupuncture here with Jessica , felt very relaxed and the follow up was very informative as well … I also like the space very minimalistic and soothing
