Sunyo Acupuncture Center

Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine located in San Juan Capistrano and Santa Monica, CA


Sunyo Acupuncture Center was founded on the belief that everyone deserves access to outstanding holistic health services from providers who are caring and compassionate. For many residents of San Juan Capistrano and Santa Monica, California, Dr. Shangyou Zhong is a wonderful resource and a trusted health advisor. 

Holistic health recognizes and honors the interconnectivity of your physical, mental, emotional, and social health. It’s an acknowledgment that healthy living requires a balance of these elements, and encompasses much more than just the physical.

We offer a unique blend of ancient traditions and modern medical knowledge, giving patients the best of both worlds. Ancient Chinese herbal medicine is a central focus within the practice, providing access to time-honored tools and techniques to enhance overall health and wellness. 

A great deal of effort goes into selecting practitioners who bring diverse perspectives and training to their practice and represent the highest standards of care. Each patient receives highly personalized care, embarking on unique health journeys with their practitioner’s full guidance and support. 

Areas of focus at Sunyo Acupuncture Center include treatment for neck pain, lower back pain, elbow pain, and sciatica. We also offer cupping therapy, massage therapy, and personalized nutritional guidance. 

Acupuncture services use a blend of Eastern and Western techniques and approaches. Patients appreciate the opportunity to benefit from a treatment modality that has been in place for thousands of years, using techniques that are currently recognized as beneficial in Western medicine. 

The best way to learn more about all that we have to offer is to schedule a time to come in and meet with Dr. Zhong and the rest of our team. Call Sunyo Acupuncture Center or request an appointment online today.
