Welcome!

If your issue is Women’s Wellness, you’re in the right place. You’ll see a ton of practices that focus on 1001 issues, listing everything from a pinky finger problem to allergies. Our practice treats almost exclusively women, and we work with hormonal disorders and acupuncture for fertility (both natural and assisted) on a regular basis. If you’re going in for your 1st or 5th transfer, we can definitely help. We receive patients from all over the Virginia area, even as far as Blacksburg and Baltimore, MD.Women who have had 2–4 miscarriages or 4–6 failed transfers without reason often come to us. Catch a Fish Acupuncture & Wellness can often identify the underlying reason why a woman with “normal” blood work is still experiencing fertility challenges. We rely on the 1,000-year-old principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine to guide treatment.

Many patients who previously saw a local acupuncturist or an insurance in-network practitioner come to us after 1–2 years of unsuccessful attempts, realizing that their previous approach wasn’t the right fit. We often show you on day 1 what the issue is.

When a practitioner understands Chinese Medicine in its purest form, the underlying causes are sometimes obvious. Our main practitioner, Brian Wah, is a dad to three children and deeply understands the joy of raising a family. The work we do at Catch a Fish Wellness is more than a 9–5 job—it’s our passion. We hope we can help you soon!

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of patients seek help from Catch a Fish Acupuncture and Wellness?

We hardly ever get the easy cases. Our typical patient has visited their Western Medical practitioner (GP) and 2–3 specialists before seeking our help. Many of our most chronic patients have visited specialists all over the country. If your health issue was easy, you would not be on our page reading this sentence. The common treatments of rest, time, endless rounds of different fertility protocols, steroids, antibiotics, opioids, proton pump inhibitors, anti-inflammatory medications, layering of psychiatric medications, and surgical interventions are not working and creating more pain and distress. We’re here to help you! We got you.

And some patients truly have no idea what is wrong — we can help in both of these cases.

“Do I need to believe for acupuncture to work on me? What if I think it’s placebo?”

Absolutely NOT. Belief is not required. Acupuncture and herbal medicine work on animals from dogs and cats to elephants. Animals have no belief in a therapy. It either works or it doesn’t work. We treat people who are very, very sick to athletes that play golf, tennis, jujitsu, karate, personal trainers, weightlifters, runners, and marathon runners. If we’re not getting a result, we’ll try to find you someone who can help you. For patients seeking acupuncture for fertility, hormonal health, IVF support, or help improving reproductive outcomes, the process works whether or not you believe in it—because the treatment addresses physiological balance, blood flow, and hormonal regulation rather than mindset. You can learn more about how acupuncture impacts fertility on our Fertility Services page or review research on acupuncture improving fertility outcomes via this NIH-recognized study (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4396152/

Written Testimonials

I started going to Catch a Fish after a horseback riding injury that left me with chronic shoulder pain. Brian has not only eradicated my pain, but has also given me better movement in my shoulders. This has allowed me to ride better and place higher in my competitions.  Brian has also helped me in tackling my anxiety, which has plagued me my entire life.
Brian has a very special way about him. He is extremely conscientious and empathetic. It is rare to find someone that truly listens and Brian is one of those people. Often, people with anxiety or depression do not feel heard or understood, but Brian helps me feel better each time I see him. Because of his skill, he is able to get to the root of my anxieties and not only work to overcome it through acupuncture, but also through advising other life skills such as meditation, diet, and other coping strategies.
I really could not recommend Catch a Fish enough. He is a master of his craft and truly cares about his clients. Brian has changed my life for the better and I do not know what I would do without him.
I came to Brian with several longstanding issues: a bad back, tendinitis in my arm, and some deep, unrelenting feelings of sadness. Although previous treatments–massage and psychotherapy specifically–had offered some relief, nothing seemed to get to the heart of the matter. After working with Brian for several months, my back and tendinitis dissipated and the source of my sadness became clear. The combination of Brian’s extraordinary spirit and Catch a Fish’s Wellness plan  (which I had never done before) did the job. For this–and for Brian–I feel enormous gratitude.
PT, Esq. Brian is highly knowledgeable in his field of expertise, and it shows. I was able to see results in my improved health and general disposition after a few sessions with him. He is very professional, and makes it comfortable to ask questions and engage him in conversation about what you are thinking and feeling before, during and after each session. I would highly recommend him to anyone suffering from ailments that are chronic or simply manifested physical ailments that may have a deeper emotional root. I suggest keeping an open mind about this type of therapy. many westerners may not understand what the philosophy is behind this type of practice. Having taken some martial arts in the past, I was made more familiar with certain Eastern philosophy before meeting with Brian, so my best advice is to try it first and your body will understand before your mind does. You will not be disappointed. (Reposted from our Linkedin profile)
After a car accident in 1998, I began seeing a massage therapist for weekly deep tissue massage. Although there was temporary pain relief I always felt the pain returned too quickly. In addition, my sleeping become erratic and I suffered from insomnia. The sleepless nights added to my daily stress which made the insomnia more severe. After going to Catch a Fish Acupuncture & Wellness, the lower back pain that had been my albatross for nearly five years gradually dissipated and my sleeping schedule became more regimented. Although I have not received treatment in over a month, I continue to reap the benefits of the therapy and the care and compassion Brian extends to his clients.

Brian is an AMAZING Healer, extremely knowledgeable about his subject matter and is reliable, consistent and trustworthy. I have seen Brian many times for different issues and I have never been disappointed. He cares about his clients and will sit down with you and listen to what you have to say and then work accordingly. Assignments may be given to the client to help further their healing. Brian uses Shiatsu/Acupressure and Massage technique. I have referred many of my clients, friends and family to Brian for healing.
