Anxiety | Depression

"I started acupuncture treatment after my sister and mother had great success.  I was hoping it would another way to treat my anxiety and depression.  For more than eight years I’ve taken anti-anxiety and depression medication to treat my symptoms.  While they helped my symptoms they also had a lot of side effects.



My first acupuncture appointment left me extremely relaxed and calm.  Even with my medications this was a rare feeling. I was excited for the next one.   Over the past month I’ve decreased my medication by 75% and am feeling 90% better.  I have a lot more energy, I feel more motivated, I feel more excited, I feel happier.  Young Kim (Essential Acupuncture Clinic) told me that I’ve had really great results.  I think so too!



Young Kim (Essential Acupuncture Clinic) has also helped me with other aches and pains; anything from sore and tight muscle to a stomach bug.  Throughout my treatments he has been incredibly informative about the theories behind acupuncture and oriental medicine.  I’ve learned a new way of thinking about my body and mind, and how to keep them happy, healthy and well balanced.

I would recommend acupuncture for anyone.  Unlike modern medicine, acupuncture and oriental medicine treat the body as a whole, not just its symptoms.  Not only am I much calmer, much happier and far more relaxed, I also have more energy and overall health after one month of acupuncture treatment.  These are results that never happened over eight year of medications."
