Testimonials

"I am so glad I found Dr. Kim! I had a bad experience with acupuncture in the past, and Dr. Kim totally renewed my faith in the practice. I started seeing him after jaw surgery to help with some nerve healing. He increased blood flow and energy to my jaw, loosened the tight muscles, and reduced my pain. Now he is treating my neck and back to relieve tension and continue healing of my jaw area. I always leave his office feeling refreshed, like I just took a long, relaxing nap. Can't recommend him enough!" -N. Schwab

"Young Kim is really knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He has been working on my knees for the last few weeks and it has been a really amazing experience -- I have felt the shift throughout my whole lower body! It has helped with my arthritis and made high-intensity sports a lot less painful."- R. Robles
