Ping Yang, L.Ac.
Ping Yang, is a licensed acupuncturist with the Arizona State Acupuncture Board. Before moving to the United States, she practiced as a State-Certified Physician in Beijing, China, for 15 years.
Since establishing her Arizona acupuncture practice in 1995, Ping has been serving patients throughout the state, earning referrals from many local physicians thanks to her more than 30 years of experience.
During her medical career in Beijing, Ping completed a long-term apprenticeship under Professor Cheng Xin-nong, the esteemed author of Chinese Acupuncture and Moxibustion.
In her practice, Ping primarily uses acupuncture, cupping and moxibustion therapies. For patient safety, only sterile, single-use disposable needles are used — one needle, one location, one time only.
Well established within the field of integrative medicine, acupuncture has a long history of effectiveness in treating a wide range of conditions, including post-operative pain, arthritis, sciatica, neck pain, and lower back pain. In 1997, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) issued a consensus statement supporting further research and the expanded use of acupuncture. Additionally, the World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes acupuncture as an effective treatment for more than 30 common health conditions. Read more on our Q & A page.

What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture can be understood through modern neuroscience and physiology. Acupuncture points are believed to correspond to areas where nerves, muscles, and connective tissues can be stimulated, helping to increase blood flow and activate the body’s natural pain-relieving mechanisms. Widely used as an alternative treatment, acupuncture is appreciated by many patients as a low-risk treatment that may reduce reliance on medications.Well established within the field of integrative medicine, acupuncture has a long history of effectiveness in treating a wide range of conditions, including post-operative pain, arthritis, sciatica, neck pain, and lower back pain.
