Low Back Pain
"I came to acupuncturist Young Kim's office (Essential Acupuncture Clinic) with excruciating nerve pain in my low back. I was having spasms when I tried to get up and out of bed.
Young Kim provided acupuncture three days in a row and after each session I felt the muscles loosen. The procedure is painless and relaxing. I actually fell asleep for a half hour. By the next week I was feeling so much better."

I cannot express my gratitude enough for the work Dr. Kim has done for me so far. In just a few weeks I have felt my lower back pain improve immensely. I have had chronic low back flare ups and aches for 2+ years, and Dr. Kim's acupuncture work has helped decrease my pain significantly. He is also incredibly knowledgeable and has helped make sure I am aware of what's happening every step of the process (being new to acupuncture myself), the clear steps I need to take, and the changes that need to be made to help support the acupuncture work. I HIGHLY recommend seeing him.

I am so glad to have found Essential Acupuncture. I came to see Dr. Young Kim for lower back pain, which, if not treated would result in sciatica. I’ve been trying to heal this pain for over one year now and tried everything from chiro to physical therapy and massages as well as other acupuncture places in California and Tulum. I returned to trying acupuncture as this is my last resort. Since I started my treatments here one week ago, I have already seen great improvements. Dr. Young Kim has customized a treatment of acupuncture, cupping and Chinese medicine for my needs and is taking a scientific approach towards my healing, takes notes, and measures my progress in a systematic way. I am a very sensitive person to needles and I greatly appreciate the gentleness and care of the doctor while working with me. It gives me great relief that he keeps me informed of what he is doing every step of the way. I am especially grateful to Dr. Young Kim for teaching me so much about my problem. He explains to me in details our treatment plan, and keeps me informed of my progress and improvements at every step of the way. I wish I was in town for longer than one month to continue my treatments with him, but for now I am only visiting Seattle. If you are here for a longer period of time, lucky you, come and see Dr. Young Kim at Essential Acupuncture for your physical pain. If you are in town just visiting, also come and see Dr. Young Kim, because he will teach you to understand your condition and you will leave with so much understanding that will serve you wherever you will continue your journey towards healing. If you suffer from any physical pain, I can’t recommend Essential Acupuncture and doctor Young Kim more. He is a healer, a teacher and a truly compassionate doctor!
Addition: I completed a month with Dr. Young Kim and have been taking the prescribed supplements as well. My back has seen significant improvements. I also brought my mom the supplements which he recommended for her to take for the conditions I described. I am happy to report she is feeling much better and has seen results from the medicine in less than 3 weeks time. Thank you Dr. Young Kim!
