"I had such allergies and asthma that I couldn't run up a small hill. After acupuncture and herbal treatment with Dr. Sparrow, I can run up that hill easily. Many of my other problems have also diminished."
 

 

"Dr. Sparrow is very professional, kind, and knowledgeable. I also like that fact that she has an MD, and has worked with both Western and Eastern medicines. Something else that I really liked about Dr. Sparrow's practice is that she worked with my insurance company so the treatments didn't cost as much."

 

 

"My experience with Dr. Sparrow has been very satisfactory. Her knowledge and caring manner have convinced me that acupuncture is a very worthwhile treatment."

 

 

"On my first visit to Dr. Sparrow, she took a comprehensive health history and reviewed my MRI. Because of her background as an anesthesiologist, her knowledge of the spine was extremely helpful in isolating the areas she needed to treat."

San Francisco Acupuncture for Back Pain, Allergies, Facial, Fertility - Kristen Sparrow, M.D., Acupuncturist


"Professional, Kind, Knowledgeable"

 

Dr. Sparrow combines ancient Chinese medicine with the latest Western scientific research to provide relief of pain, mood imbalances, immune disorders and stress.


Acupuncture seeks to balance the body and mind through gentle activation of the energy channels in the body. Recent science shows that by stimulating the body with needles you activate the body’s own healing mechanisms and calm the nervous system. This leads to relief of pain, improved mood and better immunity.
