Dr. Xu is a caring, talented practitioner. Her treatments always have a positive effect on my situation. She and her husband are a great asset to the Omaha community. She always inquires about my comfort and truly knows how to make her patients feel at ease. I originally saw her in their Sioux Falls office and am thrilled that they have moved to Omaha.

I have I only visited EBOM a few times and I already am feeling so much better! The clinic is very busy but Dr. Xu takes time to listen at each appointment and seems to truly care about my long-term health. I plan on making Acupuncture a regular part of my preventative care.

I was a little skeptical at first, but even after my first session, I noticed a difference in my hip pain. I have gone from 4 ibuprofen, 2x/day to only as needed...have not taken any so far today!! I am sleeping better and feel better overall. I am a believer!!!

Dr Xu is an incredible TCM practitioner. I have been a patient of TCM/Acupuncture for many years in many places and Dr Xu is at the top of my list! Her treatments have helped me so much. I tore my meniscus early this year and treatments have helped me regain my mobility and practically eliminate all of my pain. I highly recommend Dr Xu, and acupuncture in general. I am so happy that Dr Xu has come to practice here in Omaha Nebraska! Affordable as well!

I've been seeing Dr. Xu for about a month now. She and her husband, Dr. Hu, are amazing. I've suffered from arthritis and sciatica for many years and can happily say since I have been seeing Dr. Xu; I have more energy, I sleep better and I can get through my day without pain medication. That's a huge plus for me! Dr. Xu's experience with Chinese Based Oriental Medicine is incredible. I've sent friends and family to Dr. Xu and will continue to do so!

I was recommended by my coworker Serena, I have had 4 visits for chronic hand pain, in both hands. as of today in less than 2 weeks I am 85 % cured in left hand and 90% or better in my right hand. I would and have been telling everyone I know to give this a try. Dr. Xu is very easy to work with and takes all anxiety away. I find her very easy to talk to and she doe well in taking care of my needs. I am looking at having ringing in the ears taken care of now.

Dr. Xu is the best acupuncturist I have visited. I was surprised to find such a skilled acupuncturist in Sioux Falls, to be honest. I have been going tp her for help with my hormone inbalance and my anxiety. My anxiety has improved quite a bit, and I'm able to sleep through the night without waking up and worrying In the middle of the night. I was not surprised to find out that she has a degree in counseling because she easy to talk to and good listener.

I have had several acupuncture sessions with Yanchun Xu. The therapies have been very successful. I highly recommend EBOM clinic in Sioux Falls. Dr. Xu is very thorough in her assessment of my conditions and has helped me through several medical issues.

-Deb Yoder in Sioux Falls SD | May 05, 2017
I have visited Dr Xu for acupuncture treatments for the past year. She has treated me for lower back/hip and neck/shoulder issues. The e-stim acupuncture treatments along with the herbal supplements to nourish and support the joints have been very beneficial. I have experienced a reduction in pain and an improvement in range of motion in these areas. Specifically during this past winter I have noticed that my shoulders no longer hunch up in the cold, but are more relaxed and less stressed.

-Karon in Sioux Falls, SD | May 03, 2017
I would highly recommend treatment with Dr. Xu who has helped me with leg and back pain. Her expertise and knowledge in acupuncture can aid patients with any pain or discomfort throughout the body. This is a very welcoming and friendly office.

I've been seeing Dr. Xu for acid reflux and overall wellness. She explains everything very well and makes me feel very comfortable. I feel my health gets better after each treatment and I plan to continue regular treatments going forward.

Sioux Falls, SD | Apr 21, 2017
I'd never been to an acupuncturist be fore, so I wasn't sure what to expect. We had a consultation before my first treatment which eased my concerns. The staff is friendly and professional and Dr. Xu spends time visiting and evaluating the patient before each treatment. I highly recommend the Ebom Clinic.

-Kellie in Sioux Falls, SD | Apr 14, 2017
Dr. Xu is amazing!! She helped my husband and I conceive and I am not seeing her postpartum. She takes the time to explain the whole process and how the treatment will work. I would recommend her to anybody seeking acupuncture treatment! We will definitely be back for treatment when we are ready for baby #2!!

I highly recommend EBOM ! I have been very pleased with my treatments with Dr. Xu. She explained everything thoroughly during my consultation and answered all my questions. She has helped my with allergy, sinus, hormone, and sleeping issues after only 3 treatments. I feel very comfortable with her and feel so relaxed when we are finished. I would suggest a visit to anyone suffering medical issues who want to get down to the cause of the problem and not just medication for the symptoms

-Pam Greenfield in Sioux Falls, SD | Apr 07, 2017
I have been under Dr. Xu's care now for about 3 years. She has been excellent in her care - always on time (I have NEVER had to wait for my appointment time), very concerned over my comfort levels and even music choice! Her level of training cannot be found locally elsewhere. NEVER at any time did I feel like my opinion wasn't important. She is a great listener and happy to explain any details that might be new to you. Rarely is there any pain during treatment. (yes she uses needles!)

-Brenda in Sioux Falls, SD | Apr 05, 2017
Dr Yanchun has helped me so much with the pain management for my osteoarthritis. I broke my ankle many years ago and have been bone on bone ever since. At times the pain became nearly unbearable, affecting my life in many negative ways. Since going to Dr Yanchun I am able to do so much and all without pain. I have been to other acupuncturists, and they did help, but not nearly as quickly or with the length of relief between treatments. She is wonderful!!!

-Heather Kuipers in Clear Lake, SD | Apr 04, 2017
We had been trying to conceive for YEARS with the help of fertility specialists. This year I added in Accupunture with Dr. Xu and I can say it has honestly made all the difference in the world. Just found out we are now expecting!!! She is EXCELLENT at what she does and reassures you every step of the way. Great clinic and great atmosphere.

I am so grateful to be a patient of Dr. Xu. After a life-long struggle with emotional issues and anxiety, I have finally found a doctor capable to heal my mind and body, whereas allopathic medicine had failed. Dr. Xu's extensive experience & knowledge are valuable beyond measure and EBOM's services are very affordable. She has provided support and healing that cannot be achieved by Western Medicine alone. Dr. Xu & EBOM associates deserve as many stars as there are stars in the universe.

I came to EBOM Clinic after nearly 5 years of infertility – recurrent miscarriage, failed IVF and multiple surgeries. Dr. Xu was extremely knowledgeable and was able to pinpoint several hormonal issues to get me back on track. She did acupuncture and prescribed special herbs for me. I’m now 18 weeks pregnant! Highly recommended!

I am an over 50 female runner that was having problems with my hip flexor, thigh and sciatic nerve pain on one side of my body. I went to massage therapy, sports chiropractic, then to orthopedic Institute which led me to physical therapy, but my pain was still there. After 4 sessions with Dr Xu and some herbal supplements I am able to sleep, walk and it amazes me how the pain is gone! If I would have started here first I would have saved myself time, money and being pain free, so amazing!

I recently started going to Dr Xu for treatment of chronic headaches and muscle pain. One session really helped. The pain has subsided. Now I go for regular treatments and have not had any problems since. Dr Xu is very kind and explains everything she has planned before she begins the treatment. She explains why something is done as well as the effect. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking treatment for a variety of ailments.

Highly recommend! I recommend Dr. Yanchun Xu and her staff to all my friends and relatives. I was satisfied with the result of her services and I want other people to get appropriate treatment to treat their issues. Thank you Dr. Xu!

-Gina in Aberdeen, South Dakota | Mar 20, 2017
I had reinjured my groin muscle, from an injury almost 30 years before (I was 9 years old). After 6 months of trying to get it to heal by ice, rest, etc., I finally tried accupuncture. Dr Xu was very attentive and had me completely fixed in 4 sessions (once a week). I also had her work on my ankle, which I've had problems with for 7 years. I am convinced that Dr Xu is the reason I'm walking 100x better than I have in years. And I drive from Aberdeen. She is well worth it.

-CJ White in Sioux Falls, SD | Mar 15, 2017
Dr Xu instantly helped my insomnia. I tried so many things over the years and it's such a relief to find her. She is very patient and is the best in her field. I tried acupuncture before with other practitioners and never got the results I get with Dr Xu. Just be sure to communicate ALL your symptoms clearly and take any herbs she prescribes. My life is so amazing now that I'm well rested and have energy!

-Tom in Sioux Falls, SD | Mar 15, 2017
I have been through every conceivable type of treatment for my chronic Sciatica. I had been to numerous chiropractors, had massage, had two epidural injections, with a recommendation from my Doctor that Surgery was the next option. I watched the procedure on youtube and decided that rather than having that and being out of commission for 8 weeks, I'd try acupuncture. I am so happy that I've found EBOM. After 5 treatments, my year long battle with Sciatica is completely GONE.

-Dave in Humboldt, SD | Mar 09, 2017
For over two years I was unable to lift or rotate my shoulder and my last shot of cortisone a doctor told me I was going to have to have surgery.
I tried Ebom Clinic acupuncture on a referral because I didn't want surgery. I was glad I did. After about 5 treatments I had full rotation of my shoulder.
I was so impressed that I periodically go back to have acupuncture on my lower back pain.
I also used the Herbals that they offer for joint pain. During the flue & cold season I also tried herbs.

I completely trust Yanchun in her knowledge of acupuncture and overall health and well-being of her patients. I have referred many people to her and they also have a great experience.

Sioux Falls, SD | Mar 05, 2017
I had my first visit with Dr. Xu over a year ago when I was under extreme stress and suffered from headaches, back pain and insomnia. She is such a great listener and a wonderful adviser. She thoroughly explains all procedures and every session with her is relaxing, energizing and healing. My headaches were gone after the first session and I was amazed with the results. Yanchun also successfully treated my young daughter for seasonal allergies.

Dr. Sue helped me greatly with car both tunnel. That was two years ago. My symptoms have started to return now. So I will be seeing her again as after only one treatment this time things seem to be getting better.

The visits with Dr. Xu have helped me tremendously with my foot pain. I no longer experience
the pain. I also am having treatment on my hands now and I have less pain and look forward
to my treatments with her. I feel so revived after my visits!
I recommend my friends to go for help here!

Xu used her extention knowledge of Chinese acupuncture and herbs to bring about the healing that any number of other "healing" professionals could not. I am unspeakably grateful to be free of IBS (30+ years) and the sleeplessness (15+ years) that also haunted me. She is truly interested in bringing about healing and not merely treating symptoms.
Amazing!!

-Susan in Sioux Falls, SD | Feb 23, 2017
SO THANKFUL FOR YANCHUN XU…Before I discovered Evidenced Based Oriental Medicine I traveled to Los Angeles for acupuncture! There is a difference in the quality of care you receive from a professional with extensive credentials and experience and most of the people who offer acupuncture in chiropractic offices or similar settings. I have been healed of sciatica, neuropathy, low back pain and hip pain. Now she is helping me with my frozen shoulder pain. Blessed and hopeful!

-Robin Murphy in Sioux Falls, SD | Feb 22, 2017
Great experience every time. I have been treated by Dr. Xu for over a year with my chronic neck and upper back pain. She has helped me so much and I always feel relaxed and refreshed after her treatments. Staff is very accommodating and friendly. I highly recommend EBOM!!!

-Keith in Sioux Falls, SD | Feb 22, 2017
Three years after an accident that broke two of my vertebrae (among other other things), I was living with quite a bit of joint pain and very bad muscle tension. Dr. Xu has helped me tremendously with both. She is very thorough in her treatment and her explanation. I've found more relief from my pain than I thought I ever would. I highly recommend her to anyone with chronic pain.

-Joy in Colton, SD | Feb 20, 2017

-Nancy in Ramona, ASD | Feb 19, 2017
I have dealt for years with digestion issues ranging from constipation to acid reflux. After numerous medical tests ruled out the likely problems, I still was in misery. My daughter urged me to try acupuncture and recommended Dr. Xu at the EBOM Clinic in Sioux Falls. Feeling anxious at the first visit, I was relieved by Dr. Xu’s understanding and calming bedside manner. After three acupuncture treatments and herbal therapy, I’m overjoyed to feel so much better. Thank you, Dr. Xu!

-Max Borchardt in Sioux Falls, SD | Feb 18, 2017
I was having problems with my shoulders,neck and back. The acupuncture Dr. Xu applied really helped elevate the pain and muscle tightness. On a later visit I told her about the pain I was feeling in my knee the acupuncture technique applied there has been very effective too. Thank you
55
-Darlys Zaske in sioux falls, SD | Feb 17, 2017
I went to Dr. Xu with on-going knee pain. In the past I had treated it with microscopic surgery, injections, Aleve, Osteo-BiFlex, and the next step would probably be replacement surgery. Since I have been receiving the acupuncture treatments, I have experienced much less pain, and more mobility. My knees feel stronger and I am able to golf, and continue with more of my normal activities than I had before the treatments. Dr. Xu makes each visit a very relaxing and positive experience!

-Charlotte in Sioux Falls, SD | Feb 16, 2017
I have referred several friends to Dr. Xu, who have all been as happy with her as I am. I feel relaxed and pain-free because of her.

Love my visits with Dr Xu! She does a great job of explaining what she is doing and what it is specifically helping. It has been very beneficial in helping my migraines, neck pain, sleep, hormones, and overall health! Would recommend her to to my family and friends.

-Emily G in Sioux Falls, SD | Feb 16, 2017
I have had chronic migraines for as long as I can remember (15 years at least). I have tried medications, chiropractic care, massage, etc. I finally decided to try acupuncture and I have been beyond thankful for the results. Dr. Xu is great at what she does and always comforting during my appointments. I just completed my 6th treatment and my migraines have greatly reduced. I will continue receiving care monthly and look forward to continued results!

Dr. Xu has been my 'go-to' acupuncturist for the past few years. She has successfully treated me for various health conditions including sciatic nerve issues and lower back pain. For those of you who are afraid of needles (as I am), I can assure you that you'll be pleasantly surprised (as I was) at how painless the whole procedure is.
