Acupuncture in Santa Monica

“Had the best experience at Luna Body and Mind! Came in with lower back pain while visiting LA and Lola recommended cupping and acupuncture. Felt better almost immediately after and almost fully recovered within a couple of days. Lola is so knowledgeable and kind. Highly recommend!“

“Dr. Kim is the best acupuncturist that I have been to. I have tried several acupuncturists in the past and I have noticed more lasting results with Dr. Kim. I have been going to him for the past 2 Years for IBS and facial/cosmetics and getting great results!“

“Julie is an exceptional acupuncturist! After just one session, I felt a remarkable difference in my symptoms. Her technique is so specific and she does a thorough job. I highly recommend Julie.“

“Best chiropractor ever, plus he is an expert in sports medicine help and recover. He offers the best massage before providing care. He listens, understands and is intuitive about your health needs.“

“Seyhart has been wonderful for all my needs over the past few years. Frozen shoulder symptoms, joint pain and general well being. The treatments and team of experts have healed me! Highly recommend their treatments and beautiful space!“

“Karen is fantastic. The peak of my time with her was the treatment she did on my neck after I woke up with extreme pain and stiffness randomly one morning. She worked her magic with the needles and cupping, and the pain literally dissipated just hours after. Highly recommend! She’s also fun and just good vibes overall.“

“I've been seeing Laurie off and on for over 16 years! She has seen me through three pregnancies, insomnia, migraines, assorted aches and pains and now perimenopause. She approaches every session with intelligence and care. I always look forward to seeing her, both because I know I will experience relief from whatever symptom is ailing me and because being in her office is such a calm and relaxing experience. I cannot recommend Laurie enough for whatever phase of life you are in, she is a marvel!“

“Shout out to Dr.G he’s a great human being and truly cares I would recommend this place to everyone. Thanks Dr G“

“I’ve been to a lot of ‘top’ physical therapy places in LA and NYC and have worked with several PTs that treat elite athletes. Sadhana Health is the best PT place that I’ve ever been to. Cindy is renowned for her knowledge, talent, and attentiveness and it comes through in every session. She’s helped me get from immense pain back to running and doing the things I love (I’m a 36 year-old former college athlete who lives an active lifestyle). I couldn’t recommend her enough - she’s the best I’ve ever worked with and know many doctors agree.

The manual therapy is also superior to anything you can find in LA. Heather is a guru. Her treatments have literally changed the way I feel in just one session, and regular sessions with her alongside PT with Cindy helped me get back in the game quickly.“

“I've been seeing Carla regularly for acupuncture for over 2 years and I cannot recommend her enough. She has treated me for headaches, neck pain, jaw pain, digestion... (to name a few) but most importantly Carla has treated and supported me throughout my fertility journey. She has been an instrumental part of my medical team preparing for pregnancy and throughout it. She has an incredible gift -- she is warm, thoughtful, thorough, and gentle. I don't know where I'd be without Carla's healing powers!“

“I want to start by saying how incredibly grateful I am to have found Dr. Lin. I first brought my teenage daughter to see Dr. Lin for acupuncture treatment for hormone imbalance and general fatigue. As Western doctors had recommended medications, we wanted to see if a more natural approach could work first. Dr. Lin is so knowledgeable and experienced that she diagnosed the problem right away and treated my daughter with acupuncture. My daughter’s health improved immediately, and her hormone imbalance was cured during the visits. Dr. Lin has treated us like family. She is so kind and understanding and truly cares about her patients and their health goals. She never rushes but takes her time to really get to know her patients. Highly, highly recommend Dr. Lin!“

“I have been going to Jung Kim Acupuncture for a number of years and can not recommend them strongly enough. Many of my friends go to them because they have seen the results in me. I have been amazed by how their mixture of acupuncture and herbal remedies have helped me and others heal from everything from flu, to stress, digestion problems, to frozen shoulder and neck pain and even eczema. Recently I had my first ever kidney stone. On June 13th my regular MD had a scan done that showed an approx 1/4 inch stone. Accupuncture with Dr Kim and Dr Yun helped me with the lower back and abdominal pain, and they prescribed an herbal remedy twice daily that would help reduce the stone and help it pass. With the acupuncture treatments, my pain was reduced to almost nothing, it did come sometimes for a day or two, but it wasn't intense. Two times I canceled the scheduled surgery to remove the stone, because I wasn't in pain and I was hoping the herbs and accupuncture would work with time. Yesterday, on August 5th the stone passed through me. If I had had to have the recommended surgery it would have been an estimated 2 week recovery time and so much pain and cost. I am so relieved and happy and so amazed by the power of Dr Kim and Dr Yun's healing. Their office is always a happy and friendly place to go with Laura (who covers the desk) guiding everyone through whatever they might need with her light and friendly care. If you are trying to decide if this is the place for you, just go! Healing is possible and we are so fortunate to have access to Dr Kim and Dr Yun. Every time I leave the office after a treatment I feel like I do when I go on a 3 day meditation retreat, calm and at peace with the world. I wish I could give Jung Kim Accupuncture more than five stars!“

“Dr. Nguyen is one of the most generous, caring and kind practitioners I know! She has amazing techniques and you can feel the effects immediately. I went to see her for a persistent cough that was not responding to normal interventions and she improved my symptoms significantly after her treatments. The office staff is friendly and kind and you can tell that they all really enjoy working with her. She sets a tone of patient first and has so many skills to treat so many different things - its the whole package with her! I can't recommend her enough - she is all heart with skill and intelligence. Thank you so much Dr. Nguyen for all your care! You are a life saver!!“

“Dr. Zhong is is very skilled and I was lucky to find her to help me with the hip pain. I have sciatica and pulled muscle which heart me so badly. After a few appointments I felt much better and have ability to move around.
I strongly recommended Dr. Zhong to all in the case that you have health issue.“

“I came to Dr. Marina seeking relief from chronic headaches that I've been dealing with for the past 20 years. I've seen many different Dr.'s and tried many different treatments (western and alternative medicine) over the years, but, the headaches have persisted.I sought out Dr. Marina for acupuncture and have since also benefited from her expertise as an herbalist; incorporating specific supplements into my daily regimen. I've had cupping treatments in conjunction with the acupuncture and have also been utilizing the hyperbaric oxygen chamber which has proved to be very beneficial.For many years headaches have been a daily occurrence and in a typical week I'd have 3-4 days where they would spike to migraine level and I'd need to use my medication.I started seeing Dr. Marina about 9 weeks ago. I have noticed dramatic results. In the past 6 weeks I have only needed medication on 3 different days! I'm starting to feel like my old self again. I can see that in time I am going to be headache free.I'm sharing my personal story in the hopes that my sharing can help someone find the relief they need.In short, you are in good hands with Dr. Marina. If I could give 6 stars, I would!“

“Dr Tsubakiyama is so wise, knowledgeable & a true master in his own right. The acupuncture is top quality; then the massage makes this a perfect combination of true “hands on healing.”“

“Eric is gifted at healing your body. Dry needling has helped alleviate stubborn trigger points and injuries in my neck and back area. Highly recommend visiting him if you are looking for high quality treatment options.“

“Dr. Paul is a fantastic Chiropractor Practitioner. I can attest to this fact, and highly recommend Active Therapy. I hope to be reunited under your guidance, Dr. Paul . BTC 4 Life and many blessings.“

“This wellness center has been a gem of a find. I just recently started coming here and I will absolutely continue to do so, regularly. They have a wide range and variety of services, and clearly the owner is extremely well-versed in all things that pertain to the human body. After my first visit, I felt like a new person. Thank you to Sarah for making this a great experience!“

“I came to Bay Chiropractic & Rehabilitation with ongoing neck pain that had been bothering me for months, and I couldn’t be more thankful that I found this place. From the moment I walked in, the entire team was warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional.

Dr. Eric took the time to really listen, thoroughly assess what was going on, and explain everything clearly. His approach was thoughtful and effective — within just a few sessions, I noticed a major difference in my mobility, pain level, and overall comfort. The treatments were a combination of precise adjustments, soft tissue work, and rehab exercises that actually worked.

What stood out the most was how personalized everything felt. I never felt rushed, and it was clear that they genuinely care about helping their patients heal and stay healthy long-term.

If you’re dealing with neck pain or really any kind of discomfort, I can’t recommend Bay Chiropractic enough. They’ve made a huge difference in my quality of life.“

“I love coming here! The services have been helpful and everyone is incredibly kind. I've received acupuncture, massage and been working with Dr. Melinda, and the services have been excellent.“

“I’ve been seeing Dr. Dao for a year and a half now, and I can’t say enough good things about him. Not only have I experienced incredible results, but I truly look forward to every session. Dr. Dao is deeply knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring. He always takes the time to listen and create a treatment plan that feels personalized and supportive.

Each visit feels like a much-needed reset—I get to disconnect from the outside world and drop into a deep state of relaxation and meditation during the session. It’s become an essential part of my wellness routine.

I’m so grateful to have found Tao of Wellness and Dr. Dao. Highly recommend to anyone looking to heal, restore, and feel more balanced.“
