I've been going to Shen Clinic for over ten years now. Whenever I have pain or an illness, Joel takes the time to go over my case thoroughly. He is a knowledgeable and gentle acupuncturist with a good sense of humor, which also helps when one is in pain. I highly recommend Joel as a practitioner. Acupuncture has helped relieve my stomach pain, discomfort and stiffness from back and leg injuries, and fibromyalgia.

Shen Clinic also offers Chinese herbal medicine from their large apothecary.

Joel Harvey has been my acupuncturist for many years. After spending over a year off work & being told that I'd never be able to return to my job due to a back injury, I tried acupuncture... with Joel... this was about 9 years ago, when his office was right off Solano. He treated me twice (or was it 3 times?) & I was back to work. He is excellent at what he does. His staff is very calm, very professional.
I honestly think that in addition to being a great doctor, he also has magical powers. I mean THE GUY FIXED MY BODY!
Great place for herbs for cold, flu, whatever...
Wonderful to see the business grow over the years.

I just decided to try acupuncture this year, and I've had treatments from 3 different acupuncturists for my back, which I don't know how I hurt. The first was from a guy in Oakland Chinatown. To be kind, I won't mention his name, but as they say "the cure was worse than the disease". He said it was supposed to hurt, which I found out was a lie. The second was from an MD in San Pablo. The room was freezing cold and the results after 3 times were minimal. Then I found this place right around the corner from my house, Shen Clinic. Unbelievable, after 3 treatments from Joel, no backache, and it didn't hurt a bit. Check it out.

Great staff and selection of herbs. The family that own/runs the company is very knowledgable. This clinic has eased my suffering more than once!

Shen Clinic/Shen Herb is an alternative medicine shop and has licensed acupuncture practitioners and massage therapists on hand at all times. You can pick up many different kinds of Chinese herbal remedies, as well as get a specially blended therapeutic tea for yourself. Their resident acupunturist, Joel Harvey LaC, is a very experienced herbalist and acupuncture specialist. I've gone to him several times over the years and his techniques really work. Shen Clinic also produces Chinese remedies in ready made pill form that are easy to take. I recommend their Sinus and Nose Pills for people like me with sinus problems and allergies. Their Stomach pills are also very good. Stop by their storefront on the corner of Rose and Shattuck in Berkeley, you won't be sorry!
