Like all muscles of the body, as we age, facial muscles lose tone and cause sagging skin. Dr. Koo's protocol is to relax and tone the muscles of the face and recover them to their youthful vitality. Successful results were accomplished by inserting a hair fine needles to the facial regions to remove wrinkles, deep lines, and to lift, tuck, tone and glow, which all will enhance and bring back your youthful facial appearance.
Acupuncture is an ancient medical system over 5000 years old, a form of complementary and alternative medicine which is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine. This practice deals with subtle energy flows in the body to promote the healthy flow of "Qi" or life force. Acupuncture is the procedure of inserting and manipulating sterile needles into various points on the body for treatment of pain or disease and therapeutic purposes.

I've been going to Dr. Koo for several years. I've been to her for issues both physical and emotional and a session with her leaves me feeling brand new. I've walked in with a sprained ankle and left pain free. I've gone in full of stress and anxiety and left feeling weightless. Dr. Koo gets me in promptly and truly listens to my needs. I feel very lucky to have found her.

Doctor Sora Koo is amazing! I went in for acupuncture + electro therapy because I injured my ankle hiking and it seemed to be badly bruised, very sore, and had limited movement. Having it done made the healing process a thousand times quicker, and she is extremely gentle with the execution. I was nervous about the pain, but she quickly diminished my fears with calming and reassuring words. After only a couple of days, I was back on my feet walking normally! I would definitely recommend Dr. Sora to anyone looking for relief through acupuncture.

I am so thankful to have found Dr. Koo. I had called her on a Saturday because of my excruciating right arm pain that was nerve and muscle related. She immediately took me in with open arms and started treatment. I went to her consistently every week and each week there was absolute progress. The most important thing about her is that she listens to her patients and alters her treatment based on the clients complaint. She finds exactly where the pain is generated from and she targets those areas. She has excellent bedside manners and she is very kind. Today, I am 100 percent better thanks to Dr

Had the best experience here. I came in very ragged and in bad shape. The first visit left me in deep relaxation after weeks of chronic illness! After another 2 visits it felt like my stomach issues never happened. Incredible! Would recommend to anyone. Affordable packages and wonderful attentive care. Felt safe during Covid. 5 stars all around!

I have been dealing with a stomach ailment for over ten years. I have been to several doctors and specialists, tried the prescription regimens recommended, changed my diet, etc., (you get my drift, nearly everything else under the sun), and I was never able to find any relief; and long-term use of some of the recommended prescriptions lead to an increased risk of cognitive issues in the future. Not only did none of this work, but the thought of these side effects from the medication was worrisome. Over the years my pain continued to progress in frequency and intensity.

Sora is wonderful. I am so grateful to have found her after suffering for some time from tendinitis. The acupuncture treatments have been very effective in helping me get back to work. Scheduling was easy, I never had any trouble with parking, and the rooms are comfortable. I highly recommend CHA. And try the tea, it's delicious :)

I was in intense pain earlier this week with problems stemming from past fusion surgery on my neck. I contact Dr S and she set up an immediate appointment within that hour. She was kind and when I left the office I felt a sense of relief and pain reduction. I strongly recommend Cha and Dr S

I found CHA Acupuncture & Herb Clinic through a referral from a colleague of mine who is also a patient of Dr. Koo. Dr. Koo was quick to respond when I called to set up an appointment due to my wrist and ankle injuries. When I arrived, I felt a very welcoming atmosphere and was pleasantly greeted as soon as I walked in the door. Dr. Koo assessed my injuries and was able to diagnose the proper treatment right away. I noticed that she was extremely knowledgeable, thorough and skilled with her acupuncture techniques. Not only did I leave feeling fully rejuvenated, but I also felt that she had

I have been suffering from lower back pains due to my work. I have been wanting to try acupuncture for quite sometime now. Thanks to a dear friend for recommending this place! I am extremely grateful for Dr. Lee for making my first time getting acupuncture super wonderful. She was very thorough and talked to me every step of the way! Instead of feeling nervous, I felt so relaxed. It has been a couple days since my treatment and my back is already feeling soooo much better already.

I highly recommend giving this place a try, and don't forget to ask for Dr. Lee!

Sora is amazing at what she does. I suffered from horrible migraines and after one treatment, I stopped getting migraines for almost 2 years. She discovered health issues I never knew I had. I appreciate her knowledge and skills and couldn't thank her enough!

Dr.Lee is the most thorough and well practiced acupuncturist I have come across in Los Angeles. I never feel rushed through the appointment and always have opportunity to address everything. Whether for ailments serious or lighter things or aches or pains.

Highly recommended!!

As far as her herbalism goes she is a pro! Always have seen great results!

I experienced a dozen acupuncturists over the years and Sora is at the top of the list; amazing energy, knowledge and experience. Their hand made tea selection and tea bar is an additional
treat.
