Ranks #1 the Best Acupuncturist in Google and Yelp Reviews in Rocklin, Roseville, Citrus Heights, Folsom and surrounding areas. Having recurring migraines is similar to parenting a temperamental toddler. When they go from being annoying to actively disruptive and mildly infuriating, there is often little one can do but grit your teeth and persevere.
The helpful suggestions for managing this occurrence involved a mixture of expert opinion, anecdotal hearsay, individual tinkering and a big dose of patience. We often say in Traditional Chinese Medicine that the liver is the system most easily susceptible to stress. Stress knots the Qi (energy) and makes its flow stagnate - this happens most quickly in the liver energy system.

Dr. James Jun Acupuncture is very close to where I live and I am so happy that my husband located him on Yelp! I had my third visit today and I am happy to say that the pain level is very low! Dr. James Jun always asks "how are you feeling" and he listens to everything I have to say! He also explains exactly what the treatment will be.

Dr James and his wife we very thorough. I had never tried acupuncture before so I was a bit nervous and a bit skeptical. They put all my fears to rest. I highly recommend dr. James for anyone especially for someone like me who is in pain and the only solution your primary care doctor gives is pain pills! After one session I could actually walk without gritting my teeth in pain and pick up my daughter without fear of dropping her. Of course like anything one time isn't going to fix everything but at after 1 session I know that the pain in my legs from my c section isn't going to be an

Dr. James and prayer saved my mental state and put me on a better mental path to deal with my high anxiety stemming from the workplace. Dr. James addresses the whole body and what is out of balance, not just the anxiety but my overall health. I went for 6 or 7 sessions, this was a first time experience for me as I'd never see an acupuncturist before. I remember my father went once in the late 70's but I never came close to considering visiting one until I hit a wall mentally with my anxiety. The overall experience is phenomenal and soothing. I'd be a regular for life if they accepted

I went to Dr. James for some pain and numbness I had in my foot for 10+ years. I'd been to neurologists, podiatrists, chiropractors, physical therapy. You name, I tried it. Then a friend reminded me about acupuncture and I got Dr. James info from my brother. WOW!!! I pretty much have no pain or tingling within the first 3 weeks. I can actually feel my toes again. I am so happy to have found Dr. James. His staff are so caring and helpful and Dr. James is amazing. He is so accommodating and knowledgeable to find solutions for pain....Thank you Dr. James!!

I had been experiencing serious pain from both tennis and golfer’s elbow for over 6 months. I tried physical therapy with little relief and was frustrated, wondering if I would ever be able to resume my previous activities. I was doing research and saw that acupuncture was a recommended treatment and thought I would give it a try. I read many reviews before deciding to try Dr James and I’m so thankful I found him! I experienced some relief after just two sessions and after 8 sessions the pain is gone! I also found that I’m feeling altogether healthier and more energetic. Dr James is kind

Dr. James is an excellent acupuncturist. This is the second good review I have left because he really deserves it for his excellent work and his positive attitude. Everyone in the office is professional and friendly. His wife Eunice is excellent at sceduling and helping you with your insurance and Jeanie is an incredibly talented,intuitive masseuse. His acupuncture and good advice not only helped me lose over 40 lbs but It also helped me to get off of insulin completely. And I definitely feel more energetic and positive after each session. I highly recommend trying Dr James if you are curious about

I'm now very suspicious of the five-star reviews here. I visited James Acupuncture last month for help with sciatica pain caused by bulging spine discs. The first appointment began with an over-long, over-the-top consultation where Dr. Jun ordered me to make changes in my life. These changes consisted of such odd-ball ideas as dancing with my husband every day, experimenting with different food, and yelling at anyone (including my husband) who irritates me. He barely glanced at my MRI showing the exact location on the bulging discs. Then was the actual acupuncture session which seemed fine

Dr. James and his team are highly skilled and very professional. His office is very clean and the rooms are extremely comfortable. Today was my 2nd appointment and so far I am very pleased with the results. I am getting treated for arthritis in my neck, digestive issues and plantar fasciitis. My first appointment was 1 week ago and I already noticed a huge difference in the pain in my heel/foot. I am excited to see the results from today's session...oh and let's not forget to mention the fabulous massage they give you at the end of each session. Dr. James and team really, truly are

I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy in the beginning of October. At first I thought western medicine was the answer. I took my Kaiser doctors drugs. and his advise that it would go away in 3 months to a year. I thought that was unacceptable. So I went to see Dr. James, He performed Acupuncture in my paralyzed face. Gave me strict instruction for my own homecare and pills that were of herbal means. In less than one month and only 5 sessions my face is back to normal. all functioning 100% Thanks Doctor James and staff for your excellent treatment !!!

I went with my husband to his first appointment as he has back pain and the chiropractor was not helping him much. Dr James is not only very nice but we liked the way he explained exactly what it is that he would be doing for my husband. He also gave me some tips on what I can do even though I'm not a patient yet. I have to say it's been 2 weeks and two appointments later and my husbands pain is much better. My husband will be seeing dr James weekly and he is happy to have him as his acupuncturist.

Dr James is an excellent Acupuncturist. He is very knowledgeable in Acupuncture and TCM. When you first come in to see him for a problem, he has you fill out a questionnaire about all your problems and medications. Then he checks your tongue and all of the different pulses in your wrist that correspond to your organs. Then he decides what is needed. He is an expert at placing the tiny needles at different parts of your body and then using light electrodes to increase the benefits of the Acupuncture even more.I've been going about 6 weeks now. And after each Acupuncture session, he also helps

I have never had acupuncture prior to seeing Dr. James. I have ongoing back and neck issues for many years and therefore see a chiropractor regularly. However, in the recent months I've felt like I wasn't getting any relief with adjustments. I've heard a lot of positive feedback about acupuncture and scheduled an appointment with Dr. James. He took the time to discuss what I should expect, informed me that progress is gradual and not overnight and assured me that I was in good hands. Dr. James has two locations, Citrus Heights (3 days a week) and Rocklin (2 days a week). I have

Dr. James is hands-down the best acupuncturist I have EVER gone to - I mean ever. I have gone to other acupuncturists over the years and never felt that they were getting the job done. I went to another Acupuncture doctor in the area, but her office environment was unprofessional and she treated me in house slippers! While I was skeptical about Dr. James I have to admit every ailment I've gone to him for treatment has been relieved! Dr. James knows what he is doing and his results are real! I don't have come every week now - I come every few weeks just to keep all the joints and muscles

Dr. James and acupuncture has been the best treatment for my neck pain. I've visit other acupuncturist before but none have take the time and dedication like Dr. James. Taking pain pills or not even chiropractors have the effect that acupuncture have in improving your pain. Please give some time for this treatment to work, be patient the same way that your pain develops with time the same is with healing. Thank you Dr. James for your dedication and great service.

Dr. James has been nothing but exceptional in his patient care from the very first session I used with him. I suffered from constant back pain for years due to an over active lifestyle. I was immediately able to feel a difference in my mobility, the pain level greatly reduced (almost vanished) I began to live a pain free life from the very first session. I am a believer in Dr. James and will continue to visit him regularly.
I highly recommend him if you are ready to start living a pain free life. Start investing in yourself. You deserve it. Go see Dr. James and experience for yourself what I am

Dr. James is the fifth acupuncturist that I have seen for my knees. He will be the last, as he is the BEST I have seen. He is so knowledgeable, and skillful, even if you are afraid of needles, I think you will be impressed by his technique. In addition to this, he is a very kind and caring individual. If you want to try acupuncture, see Dr. James. You will not be disappointed.

I have waited a few weeks to write this review since seeing Dr. James last to make sure that my symptoms were truly gone. I had never had acupuncture before so I don't have anything to compare his method or practice to. That said, Dr. James is an extremely compassionate and caring man who took time to understand what was going on with my symptoms. I came to him with a section of skin on my thigh that would wake me up at night feeling like it was on fire. There was no logical explanation for what was happening; no rash, no muscle issue, nothing physical that my doctor or I could see. For that

I had never tried acupuncture but a friend told me it worked so when I began having back and hip pains I reached out to Doctor James. He is from Korea where I spent some time years ago and has that passion I admire in Korean people. His treatment is more than just the needles, he manipulates the limbs and does massage. Am I cured of my pain after two sessions? Not yet but I feel more integrated and know I'm on the path. Dr. James conviction and open heart makes him special in my view. I look forward to my next visit.

Dr. James is amazing!! He treated both my husband and my Mom. My husband had the worst hip pain and was unable to even lift his feet to get into the showers. The doctors gave him prednisone and physical therapy but neither really resolved his hip issue. My husband went to see Dr. James's a couple of times and his hip pain is all gone now...
I recently took my mom in for some unknown stomach pain that the doctors couldn't really help figured out. She had two sessions with Dr. James and is already feeling so much relief.
We are so thankful to find Dr. James!

My mother and I have both been receiving acupuncture treatments from Dr. James for a couple months now. He is treating my mother for her recently-diagnosed Bell's Palsy and me for my chronic plantar fasciitis. We have both noticed improvement in our symptoms and are hopeful that they will continue to subside. Since I started my acupuncture treatments with Dr. James, I've also noticed a general sense of well-being and calm; the anxiety I'm often plagued by has become much less frequent, and I've been sleeping much better.
