Acupuncture in Honolulu

“Thank you so very much to Kapila. I regret that I had not known of HK acupuncture prior to this week. I've been battling Army injures and some wear and tear for a long time and have had several massages at places where I felt I had been beat up. Not here. My shoulders had really been giving me a lot of problems this week and I came across HK acupuncture. I had a upper back/shoulder massage today and I'm so grateful for some relief. I'm pretty impressed and know that this will not be my last time. Thanks again so very much.“

“I love this place! I love how I feel after I get my acupuncture done. The advice I get and the way that Cymone cares about my health makes me come back here all the time.“

“Danielle was amazing. She was so informative, always checking my comfort level, and she had good recommendations for self care before my next appointment. I will definitely be back and I’m so glad my friend recommended Danielle at PT Massage.“

“Naturopathic medicine is SO scientifically advanced. As I've learned more about it, I've realized that doctors like Dr. Taketa-Wong have a unique understanding of biochemistry. That's why she was able to identify the underlying causes of symptoms like mine. And that's why she continues to prescribe herbs and supplements and certain foods to heal those causes. It's a great combination of advanced science and natural remedies.I have been a patient of Dr. Taketa-Wong for 10 years. As I've grown older, several chronic conditions have presented themselves. One of them is a severe digestive condition that conventional medicine had no answers for. It was a scary time. I was in misery for months until the doctor did some advanced laboratory tests. The results proved her initial diagnosis, and I've been on a regimen of Chinese and Western herbs and tinctures -- along with certain foods -- that keep my condition under control and allow me to live a fairly normal life. Amazing. Life changing.Also, I like they way Dr. Taketa-Wong is on the cutting edge of medicine. She's always researching new therapies to help her patients. I'm the beneficiary of that, because I'm using a high tech device called NeurOptimal. It's this amazing new brain technology packed into a laptop. I just listen to music for 30-minutes and it actually retrains my brain. I became a believer because my mood and sleep started improving after only a few sessions. But the most surprising result is that another chronic condition involving bladder issues has also resolved!In short, Dr. Taketa-Wong is a rare gem in this world.“

“Love Dr Kathy she's a wealth of knowledge.Herbs tea really work..! I use meditation app to relax for 1/2 hour it's helpful if you get anxious over the thought of acupuncture.Heel pain gone my allergies are being controlled without taking meds Parking lot can be not so great someone hit my car & left. Otherwise all good things to say“

“we thank our blessings every day that our paths crossed with dr. uchida's. she is literally an angel residing earthside. i had very irregular menstrual cycles (sometimes going three months without one) and whenever i did have a period, they were often quite heavy lasting more than seven days... my longest being thirty days. on top of that, when we actually started tracking our ovulation window, we realized my luteal phase (the fourteen days after ovulation) was short and/or i would start spotting seven/ eight days in, which is not ideal for the success of a fertilized egg implanting into my uterine lining if it's already beginning to shed. not ever officially "diagnosed," but it was stated that i could possibly have endometreosis, adenomyosis, and pcos.so we began working with dr. uchida in january 2021 and i began a journey of NOURISHING my body three times a day with a specific diet that would support our fertility journey. it was HARD for me... eating wasn't something i did well... i tended to fast a lot and usually only ate once a day, sometimes two. she gently explained to me that my ovaries were one of the last things in my body to be nourished because i didn't need them to survive... eating three times a day, ESPECIALLY protein, would help to ensure they were getting the nutrients needed. she also started me on various herbs and pills that would help to nourish my body as well. as the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, she adjusted my treatments, herbs, and pills accordingly; carefully observing how my body and menstrual cycle were responding. she was able to help me get my periods fairly regular... maybe about every six weeks instead of three months... and they were all a week long with only a couple of days being heavy instead of all of them! they also stopped being extremely clotty and much more flowy.and at the end of january 2022 we found out we were pregnant! we were beyond excited and dreamed of the family we were going to have... however, in march of 2022, God decided to keep our baby and our hearts broke into a million pieces. dr. uchida was such a HUGE support system during this tragic time for us... she didn't just physically help our body to recover from this loss, she was mentally and emotionally there for us, too. she MOTHERED us as if we were her own daughter... allowing us to cry and feel all our feels while wiping away our tears and hugging us. she was a safe space in an already difficult place to be.we continued our treatments and i finally began to practice qigong (as recommended by dr. uchida back in january 2021, but i never committed to). i mostly did it to give myself something new to focus on and to hopefully keep myself from going down a road of depression. i soon discovered that i loved the practice and it REALLY helped to transmute my energy into a positive, life giving force that not only kept my spirits up, but supported my fertility journey physically by clearing out all the negative/ blocked/ stagnant energy that happened to be stuck in certain areas of my body. it was refreshing and i liked that i could actually FEEL my qi moving within me after a class. i highly recommend it if you're the slightest bit interested in it.in august of 2022, we found out we were once again pregnant. but because of our previous experience and how an experience like that changes you, this time around we were cautiously excited and hopeful... i held my breath at each ultrasound and prayed for only good news. the weeks slowly turned into months and dr. uchida supported us through it all. when we had nausea for ten weeks, she made sure to ease it as much as she could with specific acupuncture points and encouraged us to continue eating as much as we could, even if it wasn't on the diet, because it was important to continue trying to nourish body while it worked incredibly hard to create and sustain new life. in april of 2023, we welcomed our beautiful baby into this world. .i fully believe that because of the treatment i was receiving and the herbs“

Mahalo for what you do!!.“

“She Determined the cause of my sore ankle immediately and improving after 2 treatments.This is my 2nd treatment with her ( fixed my badly injured shoulder after first getting 2months of Physical Therapy ).Highly recommended; recommended to friends.So very experienced & broad knowledge of anatomy , sports medicine as well as acupuncture.“

“I started coming to Dr. Yu for a tennis elbow that would not go away - not from tennis but carrying my heavy toddler. I had tried everything else when a friend recommended his "wet cupping "therapy. It is amazing how well this works. I'm a huge fan!“

“My friend told me to go see Allyson and it was hands down best massage I’ve ever gotten ever gotten arguably and I’ve seen and tried out many different practitioners over the years. Allyson’s massage was equally as effective as getting Accupuncture if not more effective. My back was all jacked up before I saw her and I feel like way better just from one session.“

“Tim is an excellent, meticulous acupuncturist and herbalist. I feel lucky to have found him.“

“Mei Li is an amazing chinese doctor/acupuncturistSince 40 years I'm having acupuncture in Belgium and also several in Honolulu. But Mei Li is the only one who was able to cure my symptoms.She keeps on searching till she finds the real problem and uses different techniques to achieve this.I can recommend here the full 100% to anybody.Thank you Mei Li !Guy“

“Prior to seeing Lucia Chung, I've seen 5 other accupuncturists. Two of which were the most well known at that time. I had minimal results at best. Lucia is not only very professional, it's because of her professionalism, your confidence in her just grows. She's treated me for bells palsy, heat exhaustion, eczema, poor circulation in my legs, and a re-occuring shoulder injury from judo. I have ALWAYS been satisfied with her treatment. In my opinion, I feel I found one of the BEST!!!“

“I asked for something for the pain, she asked me where was the pain, I answered my wrist. She immediately knew which Chinese Herb I needed and explained the instructions on taking it. I got results that same day. The pain was gone, including the other pain in my body. It was wonderful. I wish there was a bigger Bottle. Thank you!!“

“My go to Acupuncture guy for a few years now. I always go specifically for my sciatic pains.“

“This is a small Chinese medicine clinic (traditional medicine practiced in East Asia, mainly China) run by an old man, who prescribes Chinese medicine and administers acupuncture.Although the interior doesn't have a nice interior, it is kept clean and feels like a traditional Chinese medicine clinic.Parking is available at the back. Enter the building from King street.If you have a bad lower back due to a stiff lower back, it will prick you in the exact spot and heal you. It's electroacupuncture.I have received acupuncture treatment in many places in Hawaii, but nowhere has it been as effective as here.After the acupuncture treatment, I was given Chinese herbal medicine (oral medicine and compress) to help my lower back.I think it depends on the type of insurance, but I used UHA and it was $10.I am grateful that you were able to heal me this time. I had undergone treatment twice at other acupuncture clinics in Waikiki, but it didn't work at all, but here it was a one-shot.I want my grandfather who is a Chinese medicine doctor to live a long life.“

“Master Gina is the best acupuncturist in Oahu. She has a big heart to people. I been going to her for fertility treatment, and I would say she has healing ability. I am 5th weeks pregnant because of her ability to helped me physically, mentally and emotionally. I gained a family, friend, sister and a master. Everything is a beautiful flow. I would recommend her to all. You guys won’t regret.“

“Since I went to Acutherapy Clinic with Dr. David Cai, I feel a lot better. This is my first time to come here, I thought it’s painful, but it’s not, just like insect bite. Now the pain on my left shoulder down to my left arm which cause of pinch nerve is gone. So I’m happy to recommend Dr.David Cai to my friends and relatives.“

“I live in the SF Bay Area, but I will fly from the Bay Area to see Dr Wong in Honolulu. I have had a hard time finding a good acupuncturist in the Bay Area. Most doctors care more about money rather than treating patients. Dr. wong was nice and very patient. She took time to explain my problems, even patiently teaching me how to diagnose my problems myself by looking at my own tongue. She really helped me improve and get better.“

“I've known Dr. Fan for a few decades now and she's genuinely caring for all of her clients like her own family. She's patient and took time to explain everything from diagnosis of health issues to treatments. I prefer taking Chinese herbal medicine more than western medicine because it has no side effects like western medicines.“

“brought my mom here for her first ever massage and she loved it despite being nervous! Renata was great with the head massage and helped make her feel v comfy“

“This is my first acupuncture treatment ever and I’m now a fan. I’ve had a pinched nerve for about 4 days, and after 1 treatment, my pain is reduced probably 75%. I can move my head so much more too. Very knowledgeable acupuncturist and very great at explaining the issues/body systems.“

“It's not the amount of needles used, it's the quality of where it's placed is what I've gathered. This is my third visit here, and so far, it's been nothing short of relaxing and wonderful. During my first visit, I filled out all the paperwork and had a consultation with Mei-Lin. The paperwork is extensive with questions about your well-being. So be honest with yourself, and if you feel like it's been a bother in the past 3 months, check it off. Not to say that you should check off every little thing, but the things that you feel are necessary. This will help treat you the best way. To be real, when I looked into finding another acupuncturist, I was looking for someone who specializes in fertility. When I answered that questionnaire, I realized boy do I need to rebalance.I've been coming here now for a few years prior to pandemic. Tea is no longer being offered, so do yourself a favor and be sure to drink water before and after you go. Hydration after this kind of treatment is important. When you get in, take care of your parking and service payment. Use the restroom too, if u must. You could be in the room for an hour. Mei Lin's bed side manner is super relaxing and she cares. When I lay down and she comes in, she always asks about my concerns, my sleep, and digestive. Again, my main focus is fertility. I saw her as often as recommended during my fertility journey and also the day after my embryo transfer. I believe acupuncture really helped me with having a positive pregnancy result. She'll even give me a few needles on my aching shoulders, cause that is where I hold my stress. When I had thyroid concerns she also had stimulated that area for me. She's amazing and intuitive to how you're feeling. I highly recommend her if you're looking for an acupuncturist with knowledge and care. Her office is on the 8th floor of the Kuakini Medical building. Parking with validation is just $3. Oh, and YES, please wear your mask when you enter the building and especially the office.“

“I was introduced to him by a friend because of the after-effects of a car accident and because my job requires a lot of physical exertion and I often fly, so I decided to give him chiropractic and massage treatment for the first time, and he was very helpful. I am. I've never been good at massages, but I was surprised to find myself falling asleep during a massage for the first time. In particular, Ms. Love, who always gives me massages, can only be described as having the "hands of God."Everyone at the clinic is very nice, and I am very grateful to them for taking care of me and my son. Thank you always so much.“
