Lea Tam Acupuncture Center — Local services in Boston

After neck injury, three hospitals and entire teams of neurosurgeons said I would be I a wheelchair on a breathing tube, “like Christopher Reeve.” So it is very easy for me to enthusiastically support and get behind the Tam Healing Center because they helped me NOT to be in a wheelchair. Sometimes in life we all need a helping hand and often when you have exhausted Western medicine’s surgeries and medications, it is hard to know where to look. Many of Western medicine’s treatments for illness and trauma, carry many risks and side effects, worse than the original condition. Acupuncture and other therapies prevent illness by optimizing your health and wellbeing.

The Tam Healing Center is a special place dedicated to using alternative therapies to promote natural healing and recognizes the connection between mind and body. You will find acupuncture is at the core of these options but there is also herbal medicine, cupping, and collective meditation. As soon as you step foot in the Tam Healing Center you will be supported but encouraged to own what you are responsible for in the experience. There is little room for self-pity or “poor baby” here. However, you are listened too and people with chronic conditions and chronic pain are particularly well served here! Three hospitals and entire teams of neurosurgeons said I would be in a wheelchair on a breathing tube, “like Christopher Reeve,” but instead I am checking out the Tai Chi at the Tam Healing Center and going hiking! Are you ready to go to the...

I've been searching for my long over due shoulder/head pain answers for months but no PCP, no ENT, no Orthopedist, no PT, no Chrio could give me the answer. In fact, I got sicker with some incorrect dignoeses at times. I was devastated because my current insurance was running out (a long story) then met Dr.Bell Tam, thank you and thank God (yes, they even take insurance). Not only Dr. Tam at the 1st visit answered where the source of the pain was (neck area) but almost a good amount of nerve pain going through the shoulder/arm got lifted immedietly. And I've been well taken care of ever since. Dr. Bell Tam is not only a great healer in his technique (painless needle work with his father Dr. Tom Tam's Tong Ren device on then followed by a massage therapy/cupping) but his kind and sincere treatment every time is something I could never forget- thank you, thank you! Dr. Tam, remember I said I feel like a human being again? You truly scooped me from the midst of this pain mess. I really appreciate everything you have done for me and for my husband (none acu believer to a believer bc Dr. Bell Tam). Hope this little sharing finds many healing needed people out there well..You may not need to search...

I can't imagine the last four or five years of my autoimmune healing journey without Bell and his team. After my first visit with Bell to help me with Hashimoto's disease I started to weep--it was the first relief I had felt since my diagnosis (and flare-up) and I felt 20 years younger and 20 pounds lighter (from stress and discomfort/pain). Since then he has helped me with shingles and Long Covid. I don't know where I would be without him (unemployed and in bed?). He is attentive, caring and incredibly talented--as is his entire team. If you have chronic illness or for any reason at all, please trust him with your wellness journey. You will feel so...
