LAN HE, L.Ac/ Specialist in Complex Cases & Health Restoration in Austin

“Dr. Lanh is fantastic. If you are looking for traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, I highly recommend her. She has helped me with some pain and inflammation that were not improving via modern Western treatments. Her approach is holistic, so besides treating the body and physical ailments with needles and moxa, she will carefully evaluate your diet, habits, emotional state, and mind-set in order to counsel you towards overall health. It is quite effective. She is very funny and very wise, and steeped in the methods and philosophy of a tradition that dates back thousands of years. If you are open to the concepts of meridians and the overall energy complex of the body, then you will really appreciate being treated by Lanh.”

“Every aspect of my health has improved since seeing Lanh. I’ve had better sleep, digestion, focus, and energy.

Lanh has incredible expertise in TCM and real love and kindness for her patients. Her approach is to heal and balance your entire system, taking time to understand and and check in with you at each visit.

The most surprising benefit has been the noticeable “glow” I have after seeing Lanh — both friends and strangers compliment how healthy and glowing I look! We are SO lucky to have Lanh in Austin and I have already recommended her to friends."

Julia Savoie

“I found Dr. Lanh after my gynecologist told me I would need a hysterectomy at age 37. I had a large growing fibroid and was also on my way to early menopause. After three months of treatments with Dr. Lan, I went in for a follow up with my original doctor. She was confused and surprised to see that my fibroid had stopped growing, my pain was gone and cycles had completely returned to normal. Dr. Lan has also worked wonders on my digestion and anxiety.

Seven months after working with Dr Lan I went in for another fibroid scan and was thrilled to learn that it shrank 3 centimeters. My doctor told me she has never seen anyone shrink a fibroid! I also learned at that visit that I was now negative for HPV.

She has educated me on what foods to avoid and eat more of for my body type and it’s been so powerful.

I feel so lucky to have found Dr Lanh. She skillfully targets each issue in her treatments and has my full trust and confidence. I see her now for weekly maintenance visits and have never felt better. Lan truly cares about each patient and provides the highest level of expertise that you will find for acupuncture. I highly recommend her!!”

Alyssa Love

“She has roots in ancient heritage of a wholistic wellness science. Dr. Lanh has excellent intuition and guides you with loving focus and care toward your healing.

She has deep knowledge in Acupuncture and unmatched to those I've attended in the past. After being with her for a few weeks, I have more mobility, less pain, and a wonderful wellness routine she has guided me on that seems to be working internally and externally. I highly highly recommend Dr. Lanh and no other in the city of Austin.

By far the best experience I've ever had with authentic Acupuncture. Do yourself a favor and schedule a month of appointments at least!”

Tyagaraja Welch

“Lanh is the most effective Acupuncturist I have ever seen. Although cosmetic issues were not my reason for seeing her, it has been a byproduct for sure! Like a mini face lift, the wrinkle in my brow has decreased, my whole face is lifted and my skin is clear and vibrant.

My energy was so low before I saw her. After just one treatment, I felt so much vitality circulating and an amazing boost to my energy levels continuing on through the week. She has an amazing ability to target points that my body needs. I appreciate the work Lanh does so much, thank you!!

Update: I’ve been with Lahn over 3 years! She has become my primary doctor - my go-to for whenever I have health issues. She always sees me promptly and solves the problem holistically, whether it’s physical or emotional. Always feel and look better and feel happier after every session!”

Stephanie Cileli

“I'm so grateful for Dr. Lan; if only I had met her years earlier! I've experienced immediate improvements in energy and mood, and for the the symptoms that linger, Lan continually boosts my trust in my body's ability to heal itself.

Lan has unmatched skills, intuition, humor, and compassion. Lan will know your constitution as soon as you walk in the door, and will guide your healing process by providing education and dietary/lifestyle suggestions in doses that don't feel overwhelming.”

Rosanna Worthington

“I was recommended to Lanh about a month ago by my employer and have had tremendous changes in my health in only 6 sessions. I had been dealing with hair loss, weight fluctuation, & gut health issues with anxiety despite being young & active with a healthy diet. In only 6 sessions, I have seen positive changes in my health unlike the dozens of things I have tried. I feel so much more energized & have noticed so many positive changes in my skin, body, & gut health.

Aside from the health benefits, I truly believe Lanh is the best at what she does. You wouldn’t expect to be laughing and smiling while getting poked with needles, but Lanh’s contagious energy and infectious personality makes the whole experience not only comfortable & easy, but something you leave with a smile on your face.”

Emma Fakier

“I had gone to an orthopedist who tried PRP injections and then suggested putting me under while he forced my arm to move, a procedure which often has horrible outcomes. I had tried weeks of physical therapy, during which time my condition worsened. I had massages and I had been to a wonderful chiropractor who finally recommended Lanh.

I could hardly move my arm away from my body when we started, and things didn't change much for the first four sessions, but she assured me it would help, so I continued, despite my discomfort with needles. She talked to me about habits I could change to help the process along, and sure enough, after four sessions, things started improving quickly. I have now had eight sessions and can raise my arm to the side to over 90 degrees and even higher in front of me. Every day, I'm noticing more freedom of movement and I will stick with this woman no matter what.

I have never had acupuncture do much for me and though her technique is more intense than I've experienced before, I see why. She's a tough, caring doctor practicing with great expertise and love. I will never be excited to go have a bunch of needles poked into me, but I am sure excited to feel these results. Frozen shoulder often takes two or three years to improve, but Lanh has sped up the recovery for me and I will absolutely not wait seven months to go see her if I ever feel it starting again. Life is good without pain and movable shoulders!”

Rosabelle Pong

“Dr. Lanh has been such a blessing to my family. She healed my mom’s messy health condition and two weeks ago, I got a big ulcer at my tailbone due to sitting long work and got infected filling full of puss. The infection grew so fast and was hurting so much that I was going to go to the ER. My mother called Dr Lan and she was able to see me the following day. Dr. Lan checked on me carefully and told me that I would be fine soon which comfort my irritation down. She cleaned the puss out and placed dry herb powder in it.

I finally slept well without the burning pain on my tailbone that night and the next morning, the puss started to dry up. And after 3 days’ therapy, the ulcer was completely dried and healed with no need for antibiotics. I could have ended up in a long wait in the ER plus a trip to the pharmacy and the side effects of the antibiotics in my body. I am so grateful to Dr. Lan that I didn’t!”

Karin Moss

“After reading the reviews of Lanh Acupuncture LLC. and her services, I decided to give her and the practice of acupuncture a try to address pain, obtain overall balance and optimal health. After just my first session, the pain and stress I had been feeling was completely gone! That night, I slept AMAZING! Lanh is calm, warm, empathetic and thoughtful in her practice. She only sees one patient at a time and truly cares about your well being wholly.

She offers much more than just acupuncture and treats many conditions. I ALWAYS feel better after seeing her and I can't thank Lanh enough for how she has helped me. If you have been curious about acupuncture and have been wanting to try it... Lanh is the person you have been looking for. I promise you will not be disappointed. Don't wait any longer, book an appointment today. You deserve to feel better today!”

Katie Cuevas

“I’d been struggling for my health for months before finding Dr. Lanh. After going through a stressful time in my life.

I started to see another acupuncturist practitioner in Austin which began to bring some relief. My intuition told me I was getting closer, but I still hadn’t found the right doctor. Then I met Dr. Lan. After only three sessions, I’m already starting to feel energy come back into my body. I’m sleeping better, my cycle is normal again, and I’m starting to feel like ME. For any one who has been struggling with a chronic issue, you know what I mean when I say I’m beginning to feel like myself again.

Most doctors today ask your symptoms, prescribe a pill, and push you out the door. It’s the complete opposite experience with Dr. Lan. She sees one patient at a time which allows her to be truly present with you during your appointment. Her approach uses all the senses (sight, touch, intuition, etc) to identify the most optimal course of treatment. Western medicine has forgotten that everything is connected (mind, body, and spirit), but thankfully, Dr. Lan is guided by this wisdom.

She told me when I met her the first time that she could help me, but that it would need to be a collaboration. I’m so glad I trusted her and she trusted me. I look forward to my appointments with her.

Dr. Lan’s radiant spirit and healing touch are very, very special. She is uniquely gifted, and I can’t recommend her enough.”

E. N.

“She is a true healer and a therapist combined. I've been to many therapists and acupuncturists for my health issues but haven't experienced results like this, so quickly. I'm so grateful to have found her to help with my conditions.

When I first saw Dr. Lan I had severe vertigo, tinnitus, digestive issues, anxiety, headaches and pre-menopause symptoms including depression, insomnia and night sweats... I was a mess. Due to the vertigo and tinnitus, I had to resign from my job. I couldn't even drive. After only four sessions I'm back to driving and I feel more vibrant and have a positive outlook on life. I'm so excited to be able to take care of myself and not depend on others. I feel like a new person.. only four sessions into my treatment plan by Dr. Lan. I always feel better after seeing her and I look forward to even more improvement!

Thanks to Dr. Lan, I'm ready to get back to work. I wish I had started seeing her sooner. I can't say enough about her gift of TCM, her encouragement, support and empathy. Not all healthcare practitioners have these qualities and they're essential to patients' health independence. I wish I could see her every day!”

Michelle Lawson

“Lanh is an absolute miracle worker. Her knowledge of TCM is so innate and she cares so deeply about each of her patients. She dedicates all of her time and energy to understanding her clients and giving them a highly personalized treatment plan, monitoring you closely with each and every session. I came to Lanh with highly irregular periods and hormone imbalances. At the time of my first session I was two weeks late for my period with no sign of it coming and felt terrible. 6 hours after my first session with her, I came on my period. 2 weeks in and my acne has significantly reduced and I feel vibrant and the healthiest I have ever felt. My results have been truly mind blowing, and have happened far quicker than with any other practitioner I have seen.

Above all else, Lanh’s infectiously upbeat and warm nature is the highlight of every visit. She is a true sweetheart, and I look forward to every session with her! I would recommend Lan to absolutely everyone.”

Mara Sandberg

“Lan is a great healer. I went to see Lan for my Bell’s Palsy after the emergency room couldn’t help with. I felt the improvement right after the first session, and she fixed it in 4 sessions.

Lanh is gifted and so knowledgeable, she knows what’s going on with all my health problems that she explains well, fix sooner and well. She fixed my migraine, overweight, chronic fatigue, insomnia, disorder of period, anxiety, depression, low back pain, knee pain. Now I go see her weekly appointment for maintenance of being well.

It’s been one year and 3 months so far, and going to Lan’s Acupuncture has been the best decision ever!! I feel way better than how I used to feel. My body shape tight up with full of energy, my face is brighter and firm though she didn’t do weight loss or cosmetic plan. She says the integrity energy makes whole body system working right and the beauty comes from the healthy root. I even noticed lot of baby hair started to grow up on my head!!! I feel so happy and grateful for all her extraordinary job. She is the best physician in my life.”

Eliza Molina

“Lan is honestly the best doctor! I am blessed to have met her now almost 2 years ago. I have been working in construction for decades and therefore my body has a lot of wear and tear. The pain got so severe I couldn't walk anymore and steroid shots for pain management lasted very short.

After my first acupuncture treatment with Lan I could move my shoulders and arms again. I was impressed and happy and after only 3 treatments the pain in my body was almost completely gone.

Dr Lan has a unique gift tuning into ones body and with her knowledge she can treat the root cause of the problem. I trust her because like no other doctor she has helped me with my overall health in a natural, powerful way I never thought was possible. I'm grateful to have found Dr Lan to help me stay healthy!”

Javi Karechi

“I have a long and complicated surgical history that has resulted in chronic liver, spleen, and intestinal issues. Lanh has been treating me for about 2 months, and I already feel much better, and have been able to stop taking most of my medications.

She's an amazing practitioner and has a true gift for being able to identify issues in the body and treat them effectively!”

Alec Watney

I began seeing Lan in order to return my body to a healthier state. My health had declined rapidly after having Covid. Lan assessed my condition and worked diligently with me to heal the intense body pain, circulatory issues, and fatigue of post-Covid. She also helped me rapidly decrease lots of phlegm build-up throughout my body from years of toxic ingestion. The outcome of the treatment has been swift and truly amazing. I no longer have physical pain, I feel lighter and stronger, I have lots of energy, and I feel like myself again. Lan shared lots of helpful information with me and guided me to alter habits around sleep, what to put in my body and when, as well as how to best move my body to get energy flowing again. This guidance did not feel restrictive at all. It was freeing. My body has quickly adapted to new routines that are working so well and will be lifelong habits.

Lan's vast knowledge guides her to what each individual patient needs. She began learning from her grandmother at an early age. She is extremely well educated in her field and I believe, carries the wisdom of YCM in her genes. She creates balance in the body so it can heal itself, aligning the physical, mental, and emotional bodies with the natural health of the 24 hour cycle and the four seasons. Each aspect has its own unique qualities we need to align with in order to be healthy, and she works with the meridians and elements to bring the body back into perfect harmony. I have been to quite a few acupuncturists over the years. Lan is by far the most thorough and effective. She is in the treatment room with the patient for the entire hour. She skillfully uses needles and moxa each session. She adds Chinese herbs as needed to support the treatment. She shares her knowledge freely. She sees herself and the patient as a team. And all she asks is that the patient be as committed to the treatment as she is.

I think of Lan like a master conductor of a large orchestra. She knows how to bring together the amazing talent and effort of the composer and each of the musicians, as well as the innate beauty of each instrument. What results is incredible music. She has brought my body quickly back into alignment with Mother Nature and I am forever grateful.

“Dr. Lan is a great TCM practitioner with true gift and high ethical standards. She has changed my life for the better.

I was suffering from messy health condition when I first visited Lanh Acupuncture clinic September last year. She checked on me, told me why I was in so much pain and what she can do, what I need to do to cooperate with the healing process, and gave me very detailed treatment plan.

She is confident, knowledgeable compassionate, super patient and supportive. After first session, the pain in my head, neck, low back, knees was gone!! I knew she would fix me soon.

After 4 sessions, almost all the menopause symptoms were gone, my emotion disorders tremendously improved and I stopped taking acid reflux medication and pain killers. After two months, my high cholesterol levels have been back to normal, I feel vibrant and the healthiest I have ever felt! I look younger, my grey hair turned to back to the original color and more new hair grew back.

I started to be able to take care of my family in a gentle way that improves the relationship with my partner! I have got lot of compliments from people around me that had never happened in my life!! Dr. Lan have made me a brand new life. I still look forward to weekly appointment twice with her to maintain my health. I feel I am refreshed after every visit. Her service is priceless!!!”

Nga M

“I found Lanh’s clinic through a Google search. I have been struggling with insomnia, digestive issues and PMS even though I consider myself a pretty healthy person. It has been frustrating to navigate this by myself as PCPs aren’t very responsive to treatment regarding PMS. Lanh has helped me understand things I can do in my day to day to support good sleep and digestion. I really appreciate the easily applicable advice that I can incorporate right away. After one treatment my sleep and PMS are improving and I feel more confident helping myself going forward. I look forward to our sessions and what is to come from continuing to work with Lanh.”

Robin Medina

“She takes time to educate you on not only what you need to do to obtain your optimal health but also why her recommendations are important. She helped me to heal multiple sports injuries including one that had bothered me for months. She is also helping me improve my sleep quality and diet to improve my overall quality of life.”

Sam Lahourcade

“Dr. Lanh is the best acupuncturist! I’ve been getting treatments from her for the past 4 years and there is no other doctor out there that can treat me better than Dr Lanh. She is different than other acupuncture doctors I have met all over the world, the difference is that Dr Lanh has the gift to really tune into one’s body and knows what’s causing the ailment or discomfort. That is a gift I believe and combined with her knowledge you are getting the best care possible! I’m lucky I have found such an amazing doctor here in Austin with Dr Lanh and I know I’m in good hands! I am not lying when I say that after only one treatment of hers I felt a change and with her guidance, herbal pills and love, my body heals or balances itself and since I’m a woman I also don’t mind looking younger and my skin has a glow from being healthy inside! That’s an extra bonus☺️”

Sabine Nitya

I have now worked with Lan for over one and a half years. Consistent sessions and Lan’s recommended lifestyle changes have transformed my body and mind! Lan’s treatments healed lingering symptoms of my autoimmune disease in 5 months, and I have been in remission for 10 months. Taking a long-term view of my health, I continue to see Lan weekly for maintenance and to prevent future imbalance and disease. During times of stress or low energy, I try to visit Lan twice weekly. Lan’s level of skill, as well as her encouragement and hopeful attitude, healed my health anxiety and empowered me to better understand my physical and mental health. Best results require teamwork. Lan offers diet, exercise, and stress-reduction strategies and often gifts her clients with foraged herbs and fruits for teas! Lan is an authentic TCM practitioner with unique methods to heal her patients in a way that other healthcare providers cannot. I look and feel better after every session because Lan knows how to restore energy. After searching for the right health practitioner for many years, I feel lucky to have found Lan in my city!

After about a week with a strained back, I went to see Lanh after my wife insisted that she would fix me. I was hesitant to go because I don’t like needles and I didn’t believe in the practice. However, seeing the results my wife had throughout the year of her going I was willing to give it a chance. The needles that I thought would be excruciating were actually painless. I started to feel relief immediately after the session. I’ve had these same back problems for over 10 years on and off, but have never felt such relief as I did after seeing Lanh.

Thank you so much Lanh for helping me and wife!

I came to see Lanh because I saw how she restored my daughter’s energy after chemo therapy, radiation, and a mastectomy from breast cancer. After only one session my ghost pale faced daughter cheeks turned pink. I’m not exaggerating, because Lanh told her patients to give honest reviews of results. She’s very serious about her practice.) I had never tried acupuncture and I was skeptical, but when I saw how my daughter got results, I decided to try it. This is the best decision I’ve made in my life. In only one session, I stopped all long term mental pills medications (4 kinds). After two sessions, my decades of childhood trauma drastically reduced and improved. My other complaint was nasal congestion that my doctor told me I needed surgery for, and after one session with Lanh, it’s 100% gone. I was so surprised! I also had a leaking bladder, and after 2 sessions, I can laugh without any problems. She also gives you a very detailed plan for diet and mental health training, and life style instruction for well being in a very simple way to improve my life quality. In my 70 years of life, I feel I am in control of my own life quality for the first time. I am excited to continue this health journey with Lanh!

I was searching for an acupuncturist to see before undergoing fertility treatments and my dad referred me to Lahn because he had a great experience with her. She is very kind, pays close attention to the details of your health journey and truly cares about helping her patients. I have seen improvement in my mental and physical health since seeing her and am excited to continue this health journey with her. Thank you Lahn

Martha Salazar

I literally believe I am alive thanks to Dr. Lahn! My previous review I posted 3 years ago disappeared when I tried to update this one so I’m rewriting it.

After a lot of research and phone calls, I first came to meet Dr. Lahn about five years ago when I was looking for answers to my “unexplainable” unstable mental state and chronic fatigue caused by the anxiety medication. I felt the energy restored right after the first session and I stopped taking the medication ever since. In a few visits, she was able to help me get rid of my fears, and negative feelings that up until now have not felt again!

Fast forward to about a month ago, I went back to see her due to severe digestive issues, constant body aches, and some other metabolic issues that my “regular” doctor and a long waiting list at the image center were taking too long to fix/diagnose. Plus, I’m not interested in the crazy side effects of prescribed medication!

As before, on the very first visit, Dr. Lahn was able to get rid of the pain almost completely. She has now given me a diagnosis, and a specific treatment plan to follow strictly in order to get well soon!
During the first 8 session package, my digestion started to improve significantly and I feel the energy restored after every session like 5 years ago. Thanks to her sharp skills and encouragement (she told me I am one of the most cooperative patients to follow the instructions of the treatment plan), I’m feeling alive again, regaining my strength and having the energy to live a normal life again!

Dr. Lahn is the best health care provider I have ever been to in my life by far. Her expertise and compassion make her a perfect TCM Dr. She is super wise and intuitive. She was able to track down my autoimmune disease to my childhood only by checking my pause and tongue, fixing the issues sooner. She truly cares about her patients, and will make her best effort to resolve your health problems, NEVER pushing to sell but asking her patients to follow the treatment plan strictly to ensure the best results. She carries on a noble ethical standard asking her patients to write honest reviews of the results! In addition, she also has amazing sense of humor! She makes me laugh and happy in every session. So far, she is the only person who has been able to heal my body and my mind at the same time with the use of acupuncture, and herbal remedies, and no medication whatsoever.

I feel incredibly lucky and blessed to have found her. I believe she can fix any health issues because she has even cured my COVID symptoms 3 years ago. I will continue my health journey with Dr. Lanh. It’s my honor and pleasure to recommend her to my family, friends and the public!
