Welcome to Jade River Acupuncture located in West Seattle, serving Burien, Des Moines, Federal Way, Kent, Auburn, Tacoma, Seattle and beyond. Chronic pain is a growing public health problem throughout the country. Most people who suffer from chronic pain find it difficult to obtain the care and treatment they truly need to relieve their pain.
Most physicians have little or no training in pain management. And well-meaning friends and relatives who have never suffered from chronic pain often dismiss its debilitating effects. We specialize in pain management using Dr. Richard Teh-Fu Tan Balance Method of Acupuncture. The Balance Method requires minimum number of needles on the area where the pain or disease is located, and distal points below the knees and elbows are used mostly.

Services
Your first appointment will be 60 - 75 minutes. During the first treatment, the acupuncturist will do an initial evaluation - asking detail questions regarding your main health concern and overall general health questions. Your Acupuncture treatment will start immediately after the initial evaluation is completed.
Which Package is Right For Me? Acupuncture is not an instant quick fix. Acupuncture works on a momentum, each treatment builds on the previous one. One or two acupuncture treatments will not be enough to relieve your pain. The majority of patients generally feel pain reduction and relief within the first few treatments.
The use of Acupuncture as an alternative approach to smoking cessation has been increasing rapidly. Acupuncture works with other addictions as well, such as alcohol, heroin, crack, drug addiction in general. In fact, acupuncture is often a court mandated treatment for drug addicts because of its ability to reduce cravings and alleviate withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, anxiety and difficulty concentrating.
Patients, parents, and/or guardians is responsible for knowing and verifying their insurance coverage and eligibility prior to the first treatment. Many health insurance only covers certain conditions. It is your responsibility to know what services and condition(s) are covered by your health insurance.

If you are late for your appointment, we reserve the right to shorten the appointment time in order to stay on schedule.

I have been going to Lory Lee for 2+ years. I have sciatic nerve issues. When I first met Lory I could hardly walk, Lory took me on as an emergency. I had seriously injured my back doing Spring Cleaning. It took 4 visits to get me pain free without the drugs that tore up my stomach. Also note that I am a big baby when it comes to needles. Lory made my fear of needles a non-issue, she is gentle and caring. This ancient way of healing is the very best way you can take care of yourself!
Instead of taking prescription pain killers or prednisone I go once a month to get a tune up so I may exist pretty
