Testimonials

I’m very discriminating when it comes to medical practitioners, and that is why I have chosen Dr. Takahashi as my acupuncturist.  Over more than two decades of beating up my body I’ve accrued more than my share of damage, and Dr. Takahashi is one of the main reasons why I’m able to keep doing what I do.  His abilities qualify as nothing less than artistry, and his continued dedication to integrating acupuncture with other forms of medicine and staying updated on current techniques makes him an invaluable member of my “go to” medical team.  I cannot possibly recommend him highly enough.

Hideo Takahashi is a wonderful practitioner with a kind demeanor and gentle approach to healing. We are very lucky to have him around, as he possesses specialized knowledge in an ancient and unique form of Japanese acupuncture. Not only has Hideo helped me with my health concerns, but he is an inspiration to my practice as well. I highly recommend Hideo Takahashi for acupuncture. You will certainly be in good hands.

I would most highly recommend Hideo Takahashi. I have been treated by quite a few acupuncturists, and I prefer by far Hideo Takahashi. I especially appreciate that he stays with the patient, working needle by needle as opposed to inserting many needles and only returning to check on the patient periodically. This is reassuring to both new and experienced patients. Hideo Takahashi combines great knowledge and experience with an astute sensitivity to the responses of the patient’s body.

My first visit to Hideo was to seek help for a hip problem I had for some time.  I had been to many other health professionals, but nothing seemed to solve the problem.  After 3 or 4 visits to Hideo, the discomfort disappeared and I now forget that it ever existed!  Hideo is gentle,, explains what he’s doing and creates a calmness during the appointment. It’s an honour to know him.

I have been going to Hideo for acupuncture treatments for over 20 years and he has always been able to resolve my physical ailments whether they related to my back, knee, shoulder, or arm. He also tailored a treatment to help me sleep on a very long flight and it worked quite well.  As well, everyone in my family has been to see him at one time or another.

I regard Hideo as an integral member of my health management team and recommend him most highly.

I have been seeing Hideo for acupuncture treatments for 3 years and he is truly a healer. Of all the acupuncturists I have seen over the years there is no comparison! I highly recommend Hideo for healing and relief of muscle-tightness, tension, anxiety and general stress. You will leave his office truly healed, released and relaxed. I very much look forward to each and every one of his sessions and am fully satisfied afterwards. Do your body and soul a favour and book a session with Hideo!

Hideo Takahashi acupuncture had a profound healing affect on several chronic conditions I had been living with and was unable to treat with Western medicine. Hideo’s methods are gentle and effective and I would highly recommend his services.

  1. Hideo is a practitioner with great energy, a true pleasure to visit. He was recommended to me, and I in turn have recommended him to others.

  2. So excited for Hideo that a website has finally been birthed. I live in Calgary at present, however always look forward to getting in a visit with Hideo when I come to Vancouver. Hideo is passionate about his work, ’embraces old and new healing techniques and really honours his patients needs and ideas about their own healing. ‘Over the years in Vancouver, Hideo would always be my medical choice first when challenged with a health issue and the results were extremely successful. I recommend him highly for anyone who seeks a gifted healer who will take the time to really hear you and walk your healing journey with you, every step of the way.

  3. I’m french and I had two strokes 5 years ago, and i find that doctor Takahashi is a great help for me.
    I regularly have neurologic problem and i can see a real positive improvement in his care
    thank you Hideo Takahashi

  4. It is with great pleasure that I can write a testimonial to the wonderful quality of care and professionalism I have experienced with Dr Takahashi. He is the best and I highly recommend him.

  5. I first met Hideo after a shoulder injury and going from one doctor to another without success. No treatment helped reduce the pain except his work. I could not recommend Hideo more strongly – he’s gentle, explains what he’s doing and stays with you all the time – he truly cares about you and your well being.
    My wife also visited him several times and had the same experience. Unfortunately we had to move overseas and we miss him dearly here in Switzerland. We could not find another practitioner which helped with my shoulder. Wish him all the best!

  6. With all sincerity, it is a pleasure to write about Hideo. Firstly, you must know that he is a very warm-hearted, professional and caring individual. He clearly sees helping others as a calling. As an acupuncturist, I trust in his ability when I need relief from pain and when I want to improve circulation and promote healing. I have extensive experience with Chinese acupuncture, physiotherapy, massage, etc.. personally, I have no doubt that the style of Japanese Acupuncture provided by Hideo is the only way to pinpoint impossible to reach muscles, joints, etc. which can in-turn promote healing from within. He identifies issues and addresses then specifically throughout your appointment. Hideo is always professional, extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He cares a lot about your well being, he has great character and earns my deepest respect and thanks as the best acupuncturist I have ever been to and as a good friend.

  7. Thank you Hideo Takahashi for your effective assistance with was a very important part of healing.

  8. I have had the good fortune to meet Hideo when he first moved his practice to Canada and I have been going to see him whenever I have had health issues ever since – I have been recommending him to anyone who complains about unresolved pain issues and everyone who has been treated by him is consistently in agreement to recommend him to others… Hideo is very clearly and wholeheartedly dedicated to the art of healing through shiatsu / acupuncture through whatever process is most suited to your situation which is sometimes a combination of acupuncture/pressure – I recommend visiting him without hesitation if you want best possible treatment..
