Seven Star Wellness Acupuncture and Chinese medicine Clinic

"I found Dr Torres when my Husband was looking to take kung fu and Thai chi classes in our neighborhood. My husband learned that Dr Torres not only has his kung fu studio but is a doctor of accupunture and Chinese medicine. I was one year into my recent diagnosis for lupus and other than my naturopath (who was hard for me to go out to the suburbs and see in person) I was not getting any relief or solutions from any other doctors. I had the initial consultation with Dr Torres to go over all of my symptoms and blood test results I began seeing him twice a week for accupunture and picking up herbal supplements. Dr Torres is the only one who has helped bring my lupus under control so I can function in life and with my family and continue teaching Pilates. He is so compassionate, genuine and caring... Always very diligent with digging into my symptoms... Lupus symptoms change all the time, plus mine presents more in the vascular system which complicates things. He makes all of the necessary adjustments to my herbs as well as accupunture treatments to best maintain my well being, physically but also emotionally. I'll say it again that he is the only one outside of my naturopath who has genuinely cared and listened, not dismissing me or just telling me they can't help me. I've recommended him to several of my pilates clients /friends who have also benefited from his help!"

"I worked with Dr Torres for about a year, 3-4x/month. At the outset, I was looking for help with issues related to general and preventative health concerns, minor aches and pains, and issues related to a high-stress life as a student and professional. I also had a curiosity about acupuncture, and I wanted to see what it was like. Dr Torres provided a supportive space for me to work on these issues, primarily through acupuncture and herbs, but also with qi-gong, massage, cupping, and dietary recommendations. He also used these interventions to support me through professional struggles, that came up at particular points in time, and which generated a lot of anxiety for me, and he was able to come up with interventions that would allow me to continue to address more underlying issues in my own psychoanalysis. This combined treatment was really beneficial. In my experience, Dr Torres is a highly skilled, flexible, friendly, and curious clinician with a broad-based knowledge he brings to the unique issues a patient is dealing with. He is available, responsive, friendly, and, importantly, able to be gently challenging, when needed. As human experiences go, acupuncture can a unique and interesting experience, if you find a good practitioner! Combined with herbs, the benefits can be great."

"I was referred to Dr. Torres by a lifelong friend of mine, I had just been diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon Cancer and had my Colon resection surgery. I started chemotherapy treatment with my Hospital and Acupuncture at Seven Star Wellness at the same time. It has been 13 months, and 28 Chemo sessions since than. I started at 1 chemo session every 2 weeks and have now been moved to every 3 weeks. O have had no major side effects to chemo. Only side effect so far is acne on my face. I firmly believe that Dr. Torres acupuncture treatment and breathing exercises have helped my energy levels remain stable, I've had no nausea, and emotionally doing great considering the circumstances I started with. I just recently started a boot camp fitness class to start getting in better shape, and my body and energy levels continue to be great. I started this Journey with Dr. Torres right out of the hospital from surgery and before my very 1st chemo session. Everything is going great."

"I started seeing Dr. Torres in November 2019 for a sinus infection that I have been treating for 3 weeks with over the counter medicine without result. I started with weekly visits and herbs and the infection was gone. Because Dr. Torres is treating the problem, but also the body as a whole I noticed a difference in my daily life, I was calmer, less anxious, less tired so I continued to go for monthly visits to maintain this stress free life. This year in May Dr.Torres prepared a herbal fertility treatment and acupuncture program as I was trying to get pregnant for half year without results and the treatment worked, in June I got pregnant and I am now in my 27th week. I am so glad I was recommended to Dr. Torres and I also recommend him to a lot of family and friends and so far every single person got good results from his treatments. Another treatment I enjoy a lot at Seven Star Wellness is Grisele's massages"

"Dr. Torres treated me for a severe case of sciatica (compression of the C7 and S7 discs on several nerves reducing blood flow; with chronic and constant pain in my leg and numbness in my foot). After seeking consultation from my treating physician, I was informed that I was a candidate for surgery. After consulting with Dr. Torres, he asked that I hold off and offered to treat me in the attempt to avoid surgery and the long term impacts of post surgery to my body. Dr. Torres diligently studied my symptoms and treated me with a combination of acupuncture and massage therapy, cupping, and physical therapy via Tai Chi and Chinese Martial Arts. After three months of intense therapy and treatment, I don't experience any of the above-mentioned symptoms, and I am in no pain after almost a year after treatment. Dr. Torres saved me thousands of dollars in medical, surgery and hospital fees by avoiding surgery and treating me holistically. In addition, he saved me from months of recovery and having to miss what would have been a great deal of time away from work. Dr. Torres continues to consult me on my wellness and physical and mental health."

"I reached out to Seven Star Wellness while infected with COVID-19. I currently live in Arizona, but a family member highly recommended their facility. Even though I am all the way in the southwest, I was able to receive a consultation (very big plus) through FaceTime over the phone and received my herbs through the postal service in a timely manner. Dr. Torres has even reached out with genuine concern to see how I was doing and continued to check up on how the herbs were working. This experience was very tailored and I highly recommend giving Seven Star Wellness a try before you pop an ibuprofen and call it a day. I will continue to reach out with any other concerns I have about my health because I do feel a difference after the fact. Thank you seven star wellness!"

"I came to see Dr. Torres for emotional-stress and musculoskeletal issues. I have been seeing Dr. Torres since February of 2018. I began with weekly treatments to bi-weekly treatments. I haven't felt this great EVER!!! I feel balanced and less tense. I love the herbal formulas he concocts with his pharmacy. He has over 100 individual herbs!! Thank you Dr. Torres"

"Dr.Torres has a calmness about him and his practice. I've had great experiences with his herbal and acupuncture remedies. He's so great that I've referred my dad and sisters to his practice where they too had great experiences."
