I was diagnosed with CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) in October of 2023 in my foot and calf following three injuries to my foot within three weeks of each other starting in August of 2023. I could not walk for over two months due to the pain. After three procedures (lumbar sympathetic nerve block), a year of Physical Therapy, pain management course, and desensitization I was able to walk with a cane and in my normal shoes size. I could do a little without, which was saved for home, but distance without and on hard ground I could not. I was told my cane would be permanent after the eighteen month mark, the only other possibility would be nerve medication that might help and I would have to deal with side effects. I said no to that. I cut out cane sugar from my nutrition intake, made some additional changes for my nutrition, kept active while being aware of my limitations, and lost some weight. In May of 2025 I tried acupuncture while traveling, but just one treatment. There was a difference, but not significant. Multiple doctors, even the previous one that did my first acupuncture treatment, told me there was no cure for CRPS and I found nothing in my own research either. I decided to try acupuncture after returning home still and found Dr. Joo. Dr. Joo met with me the same week I contacted him and we discussed my situation. He recommended acupuncture, cupping, and herbal medicine. He told me his goal was for me to throw my cane in the trash. My initial thought was “yeah okay, it’s been over two years.” My goal was to have some reduction of pain, I wasn’t expecting an elimination of the pain that I have been dealing with and could not handle hoping for it - again multiple doctors and research said it wouldn’t happen. Once completing four treatments though I realized that it really was a possibility and started his herbal medicine. Initially I only started acupuncture and cupping. I did not get hopeful or excited right away and proceeded with caution on my thoughts. I walked without the cane slowly, stretched and massaged my foot as Dr. Joo showed me. I took the medicine as directed and began walking longer without the cane in use (I took it with me just in case, my gait was very wonky after so long). I stopped taking the cane with me and after the sixth treatment I was able to jump and jog a little, happy tears right after the first thirty seconds. I still have some work to do strength wise, but the cane is finally gone after two years and four months and am no longer limited due to pain. Dr. Joo is now one of my favorite humans, he is the best and I definitely recommend going to him.

Dr Joo is absolutely amazing and fantastic in his Specialty of acupuncture. I have moderate to severe cervical stenosis in my neck from my C1 to my C7 and a severe pinched nerve. I did A total of 10 treatments at the beginning of 2025. I felt more relief with each treatment and by the end of the 10 treatments, my relief was significant. Since then, I have recently stopped taking two medications for the cervical stenosis. Lyrica and Celebrex. I am happy to report that my pain is still minimal. I highly recommend Dr. Joo for pain treatment. You will not be disappointed. Dr Joo is very kind and clearly cares about his patients. If you were thinking about doing acupuncture, I would definitely suggest seeking treatment with Dr Joo. Prices are also very reasonable.

My mother in law started acupuncture for trigeminal nerve pain in her jaw and the results have been incredible. Each session and medication made my mother in law pain go away. After so many years of daily pain, we finally feel relief that Dr Joo has been able to help my mother in law with the pain she has been struggling for years. We are so thankful we found Dr Joo and we highly recommend him and his acupuncture.

hands-down, this is the best place I've ever been to. I walked in with a lot of pain and I wasn't able to stand for so long cause I have pain on my left ankle my right knee my lower back and my right hand so in the next day I woke up and I was able to walk I was able to stand. I still had a little bit of pain, but I'm gonna continue working on that as I go there but this place is the best. I recommend it and I never recommend places but this place here is hands-down the best place I've ever been.

Amazing!!! I was dealing with vertical for about six weeks... went to an ENT, my regular doctor with no improvement. Then I found Dr Joo, who kindly squeezed me in on a late friday. I can't even begin to tell you what a change it made in my life. A dizziness, the nausea and the vomiting., Became better with time. If you're dealing with vertical earriq's diziness, I highly recommend Dr. Joo

I feel really grateful for Dr. Joo and highly recommends his professional and holistic health services. For several months I was suffering the symptoms of a strong cold and sinus, every day having headaches, runny eyes, pain in the ears and so; making all my days awful (I am a business owner and a mother), so I couldn't do my job properly. I was diagnosed with an allergy by the public health system, so they gave me strong medicine that didn't do anything besides make me dizzy.
Dr Joor right the way told me that I didn't have an allergy at all, that I was suffering a chronic sinus so we can treat it with herbal medicine, cupping and acupuncture. After two weeks the majority of the symptoms just disappeared so I could enjoy my life back :)

Dr is very helpful, insightful, and kind. I came in with menstrual issues, and wanted him to help balance my hormones and treat ovarian cyst. He recommended acupuncture, cupping, and herbal teas. After 3 months of consistent weekly treatment, my ovarian cyst reduced from 6cm to 2cm, and my hormone levels have been restored. I still experience some PMS symptoms, but overall feeling better than when I first started. Definitely recommend. Not to mention how relaxed I feel after my acupuncture appointments, such a stress reliever. Thanks Dr!
