Cosmetic acupuncture for facial rejuvenation is an amazing procedure that has been used in many parts of Asia to naturally lift and revitalize the skin for centuries. In fact, facial rejuvenation acupuncture, also known as cosmetic acupuncture, has a recorded history going as far back as China's Sung Dynasty (960AD - 1270AD), when the Empress and the Emperor's concubines used it to engender beauty and good health.
When you have neck pain, it can be the sign of the abnormality of muscles, tendons, ligaments and cervical vertebrae in the neck and/or shoulders. Neck pain is the condition successfully treated by Acupuncture in our clinic as often as Headache and lower back pain, however finding the root problems is very important to prevent further injuries and worsening.
All these writings below are the testimonials from our patients and they wanted to share their experience of acupuncture and eastern medicine for their health condition with other people who are looking for the alternatives to their current treatment or more natural and non-invasive ways of treatment.

Dr. Kim is excellent at what he does. After dealing with an injury for four months, Dr. Kim was able to do what physical therapists were unable to do for me. He helped me get back to doing what I love in just three weeks. Being an athlete, he understands the body and injuries very well and is able to use this understanding to aid his work. I would without hesitation recommend Dr. Kim to anyone dealing with an injury.

Dr. Kim is a thoughtful, smart, and confident acupuncturist. I saw him for an achilles tendon injury and he took his time to evaluate my health before rushing into treatment. I am certain my treatment with him has quickened my healing.
Dr. Kim is very compassionate and takes time to listen. It is evident that Dr. Kim is also invested in his own health and he has very competent and steady hands. I highly recommend Dr. Kim to folks seeking acupuncture for the first time, and to those who take their wellness seriously.

I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and high blood about a year and a half ago and immediately started the medications my doctor prescribed. They worked in terms of treating these two problems but they also made me feel awful (no energy, lightheaded, dizzy....). After living with it for 6 months I felt I had nothing to loose and decided to try acupuncture. I'm happy to say it worked to the point where I could cut out 2 of my 4 meds altogether and reduce the dosage on another. I can't say I understand how it all works but I feel like my system is in balance now, I feel like myself again. Thank

Dr Kim has been great for me. I had a chronic tendinitis at my achilles and could not run anymore. When I went to see him for the first time he told me everything I wanted to hear: I had a chronic tendinitis, I needed to come twice a week and the goal would be for me to run again and yes after a couple month the pain is now gone and I can run again. It was definitely worth the time and money invested. I would highly recommend Dr Kim for any tendon injuries.

Dr. Kim is a wonderful Eastern Medicine practitioner! I have been nagged by chronic tendinitis in my knee over a year. Since Dr. Kim started treating my knee, I have seen a significant improvement in the day-to-day pain levels from this. I have been able to get back to running and biking with minimal pain; both activities would typically generate a lot of pain lasting several days. Now it is minimal and is not noticeable the following day.
I highly recommend Dr. Kim to anyone looking for an Eastern Medicine Practitioner. He is one of the best!

What a relief! I went to Dr. Kim after suffering years of foot pain, and to address a more recent sports injury. Never having tried acupuncture, I was so surprised at how quickly my symptoms dissipated. I also appreciate the convenient location, efficient staff and especially Dr. Kim's personal attention and expertise. I am very happy with the results of my treatment and would recommend Tao of Medicine wholeheartedly.

I had unbearable pain in my right shoulder that just got worse and worse. Traditional medicine wasn't effective. Aside from the excruciating pain, I just plain old couldn't use my right arm. I was a skeptical and didn't know what to expect but I had to do something to mitigate the pain. There was a change after the first session so I went back for more. Today I have full range of motion with the arm and shoulder. Dr. Kim is dedicated, methodical, gentle, professional, positive and easy going. I trust him. Thanks,
