Zhen means Truth in Healing
Many believe all things happen for a reason. I too ascribe to that notion. Life often intercedes to redirect a life path. Such a road traveled, led Dr. Kim into acupuncture. And appropriate that I say road traveled it is... 20 years ago, Sun Woo, (having just graduated with a Law Degree), was in a car accident that left him unable to walk. His law career was idled, but his driving love of knowledge carried on. Wanting to recover naturally and not impair his cranial capacity with mind-altering western medicines, he turned to holistic answers like acupuncture.

I listen seriously to your health concerns and work together with you to find the best Kampo herbal formula for you. For the acupuncture treatment, I spend time with you for the entire 90-min session. Even if your problem is local such as lower back pain, I treat your whole body starting from the toe to head and the back to legs to regain smooth flow of energy in the whole body. I use Japanese most comfortable disposable needles. Most people find my treatment as very comfortable and many take a good nap during the treatment.

Acupuncture in California - is it right for me?
Acupuncture is based on the concepts of oriental medicine or traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and is one of the oldest healing practices in the world. California acupuncturists are health care professionals who evaluate and treat the many conditions, aches and pains that respond to acupuncture.
Acupuncturists insert very fine acupuncture needles into the body. The purpose of the needles is to stimulate acupuncture points or meridians. The needles do not inject any substance into your body and are so fine as to be virtually impossible to feel. In some cases, acupuncture may be accompanied by electrical stimulation or the burning of moxa, a form of heat therapy. Or use acupressure, where physical pressure is applied by hand or elbow to trigger points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians.
'Accupuncture' and 'Accupuncturist' are common mis-spellings.
