4 reviews for Sequoyah Acupuncture Clinic
Over a period of about a year I slowly developed sharp pains that would last several days in both of my knees from playing soccer. It was like shinsplints but in my joints. I saw a traditional doctor who gave me several exercises to try and recommended I take Ibuprofen. While this helped slightly it did not relieve my symptoms and I got to the point where I was unable to continue playing.
I had previously met Sung who just opened this clinic, while playing soccer, and he was kind enough to provide me with several treatments. Sung has a easy and kind personality, which made me feel very comfortable. I had never had acupuncture before, and was slightly uneasy as to what to expect. He patiently explained what to expect, the philosophy behind acupuncture, what it would feel like, and how I could expect a treatment to help my problem.
The treatments all went very smoothly, he was able to place the needles quickly and in a deliberate manner, I barely even noticed they were there. His bedside manner was quiet and soothing which helped me relax and open up to the treatment. I actually fell asleep on my 2nd treatment, which he assured me was natural and helpful!
As a result in the treatment the pain I experienced was greatly decreased and the range of pain free motion I had in my knees increased with each treatment. It did not cure me completely but was very effective at reducing the inflammation and pain I had been experience in my joints.
I strongly recommend Sung's clinic, Sequoyah Acupuncture.
Pretty gosh darn impressed. I went in for back pain (slipped disc) and numbness in my feet. The pain has been going away and staying away but the numbness is getting better slower. He told me that numbness takes a bit longer to heal than pain. On a side note, my insomnia and stomach has gotten better as well over the past month. Pretty cool. Whoever thought needles could do all this?
This place is great! I am recovering from a knee injury and my treatments from Sung have been such a big part of my recovery. He and his partner, Susan, are super knowledgeable and nice. For each appointment, we talk about how I'm feeling and he really tailors each treatment to where I am in my recovery. Also, as an athlete, it is great to be treated by someone who understands my level of activity and future needs. Thanks Sung!
Sung Kim is amazing, a true healer. If you're looking for a fresh, contemporary acupuncturist, I highly recommend Dr. Kim - if not for immediate treatment, at least see him for a complimentary consultation. You will want to work with him. He is treating a condition/concern of mine I didn't think treatable with acupuncture. I experienced immediate relief. I can't say a negative word about Sung and intend to see him indefinitely. Visiting Sequoyah Acupuncture is a healing experience on all levels. An aside: His clinic is off the beaten path - parking is not an issue. :-))
