Louise S.
I have struggled with osteoarthritis and digestive (severe) problems for many years. My treatments with Dr. Kim have been very extensive and I feel they have been very helpful. I have received acupuncture, moxibustion and herbal medicine. I have more energy, sleep better and have found that my overall health and emotional well being had improved greatly. I am so glad that I was referred to Dr. Kim.

I moved out to Salt Lake from Philadelphia Pennsylvania this year. I had been receiving treatment there for a year and a half for my endometriosis. It was very beneficial to me and my well-being. So, when I moved out here, I wanted to find an acupuncturist that would give me the same benefit. I found Dr. Kim through Dr. Congor and it has been extremely beneficial to me. I have had increased energy and continued with good health while I have lived here.

I've suffered with low thyroid since giving birth to my children - with each pregnancy it got worse. Medical doctors would give me Synthroid or other thyroid hormones but after awhile my body became allergic to the hormones so they (The MD) would change the dose and type of hormone. My health kept going down hill. My legs and feet would swell. I'd hurt all over and had no energy. The last year or so my arms and hands would swell as well.
My friend told me about Dr. Kim and I asked her if I could go to him. I didn't speak or understand Korean so I didn't know if he would take me on as a patient. She thought he would so I asked my husband - who also does some acupuncture to go with me to see what Dr. Kim could do. He was impressed and told me to keep seeing him. In just a few months I have much more energy - my legs don't swell nearly like they did and I'm starting to feel like myself again.

I have found that through my childbearing years and later on caring for grandchildren, as well as with the emotional stress and anxieties experienced in living life, my body has taken the brunt through my neck, lower back and thighs. It has been an accumulation of on and off pain through the past several years and I found that chiropractic treatment, along with alternating hot and cold packs and ibuprofen were ways to alleviate my pain until just recently.
In the past five months, caring for my husband whose health now requires a use of a walker and/or wheelchair and the use of oxygen tanks when leaving the home, I was doing more bending and lifting. In October 2007, the spasms and pain in my lower back and in my legs started to become quite crippling for me and in going to two different chiropractors, my pain only seemed to get worse.
My mother had heard about Dr. Kim from one of her neighbors. I had heard of acupuncture being a method of pain relief, but knew very little about it. I was to a point that I was willing to try another natural avenue to alleviate the intense pain I was experiencing.
Dr. Kim was most understanding and helpful. He took time to listen to me and to communicate with me. My first treatment was given to me through my back, and my pain was not alleviated very much, but my second treatment where I was treated resting on my back proved to be most beneficial. After the forty minute treatment, I found myself feeling overwhelmingly better! I would say that at least 85% of my pain was totally gone!
I had received two more treatments which have resulted with me feeling better and better and the liquid herbal medicine he prescribed to me has enhanced my daily energy level noticeably!
I feel confident now that with Dr. Kim's expertise and wisdom I have a way to keep my pain controlled. I believe that Dr. Kim's Acupuncture treatments will address the cause of my pain as well as bring relief to the symptoms. To not rely on conventional medications, but to draw upon more natural ways of healing the body is most important to me.
