Provided by A Young Kim, Ph.D., L.Ac. 

As one of the leading chiropractic offices in the country, we believe in many different methods of treatment, and acupuncture is just one of the many additional services we offer.

We are proud to offer the services of Dr. A Young Kim as part of our practice. She is an experienced acupuncturist, who attended the most prestegious medical school in Korea. She also offers herbs that are custom blended for each individual patient.

Promising results have emerged, showing the effectiveness of acupuncture, for example, in adult postoperative surgery.  There are many situations in which acupuncture may be useful as an adjunct treatment or would be helpful when included in a comprehensive management program. Some of the ailments commonly treated by acupuncture are:

• headaches
• menstrual cramps
• tennis elbow
• fibromyalgia
• myofascial pain
• osteoarthritis
• low-back pain
• carpal tunnel syndrome
• asthma

Recent studies have shown that acupuncture provides pain relief, improves function for people with osteoarthritis, and serves as an effective complement to standard care.
