Junhwa Kim LAc, Dipl. OM, PhD

My goal is to support active individuals in their 40s and 50s to optimize their health and avoid unnecessary medications, injections, or surgery. I help with pain management, as well as other variety of health issues, such as stress, emotional discomfort, sleep disorders, and digestive disorders.

My favorites:

  1. Animal: I’m a big dog lover. Check out my Sarangyi’s instagram!

  2. Food: I enjoy Korean food (anything with kimchi), Chinese food (spicy one), and burgers (don’t judge!).

  3. Hobby: I like to read acupuncture related books. lol

  4. Movie: Top Gun Maverick (Tom Cruise just doesn't get old.)

  5. Activity: I enjoy going to Korean markets and being in awe of the wide variety of soy sauces available.
