After being (quite frankly) dismissed and talked down to, at urgent care, Dr. Hong was incredibly thoughtful in her consultation and took time to listen to me and ask about my symptoms. I was lucky to schedule a same day appointment, and she was very gentle with the treatment, taking my lifelong fear of needles into consideration, too. I went for a second session, and the pain management and relief were instantaneously apparent.

My migraines would get so bad that I would end up at the hospital many times. I usually got four bad migraines a month but since I've been going to Hong I have almost gotten rid of all of my migraines. I noticed a huge difference even after the 1st visit. I can't say enough good things about Hong! She has changed my life and I highly recommend her! I wish I could give her more than 5 stars!

We identified I had a yin deficiency, which I have heard from other practitioners before. I was told I have inflammation from the "heat" from the yin deficiency. All made sense to me. There was no type of improvement that I could see. I was uncomfortable during the acupuncture and was barely relaxed. I've seen other practitioners and did not have this kind of experience. I really wanted to like this practice so it was disappointing. I wanted to commit to doing it for a year, but I just couldn't hold out because I was actively suffering through the acupuncture. (And I'm a fan of it!) What really got me was that Dr. Hou would see me every week and say the exact same things for 4 months. "Tongue getting better." Or "Toenails are still dark red (low oxygen) but getting better." This on repeat for 4 months. There was no visible or internal improvement on my end. I committed completely and took her suggestions. I tried to tell her my concerns, but she had no answers for me. Just that it will take a long time and that my "cells need to grow." If I had a dime for every time I was told my "cells need to grow," here I would be rich. I understand TCM and have no issue with waiting, but the constant "you're getting better" was suspicious. I had a bad feeling about it. I was basically told to wait a year to see improvement, but the repetition felt very "snake oil salesman" to me. Not to mention, the place seems like it hasn't been deep cleaned in a very long time. The tables are uncomfortable. The prices are decent, so if you want to give it a try and see if your issues resolve unlike mine, give it a shot! I saw a lot of great reviews so I really wanted to give it a solid try. But I need to get a second opinion after this experience. I was sketched out and had to trust my gut.

What a treasure to be found in downtown Silver Spring. Healing Support's Kevin M. is a superb…read moreacupuncturist, thorough and caring, well -versed in this healing protocol. With just one session, I had relief from intense pain following a broken leg bone, ten weeks before, debilitating pain. Anyone with chronic pain should try acupuncture for its immediate and long lasting relief. Acupuncture technique works with the body, not against it, the healing can begin. You'll know for yourself with the first treatment. A newcomer to acupuncture will do well here. Kevin takes a full history, the answering of the questions is itself a healing process. Pain is there for a reason, your body is telling you something. As surely as it has gotten you into a knot, the knot can be undone. Methodically, acupuncture creates focus which allows for relaxation. The placement of the needles sends healing energy throughout the body, it's nothing short of incredible how well the body responds. Many times a person will cringe at the sound of the word needles. The needles are small, you'll barely feel it. The effect of the placement sends warm healing energy that un-knots the disturbance. The healing can begin. The location of Healing Support is excellent, a few walkable blocks from SS metro, it's down the street from Tastee Diner on Cameron, public parking lot, but there's usually something on the street. It's an elevator building, totally easy access. The cost is equivalent to what a doctors appointment would be. With luck, acupuncture is covered by your medical insurance, but if it's not, demand that they cover it. This is what we can do as consumers....bug the insurance companies to cover acupuncture which is far and away the better protocol for pain. As we increase our knowledge about acupuncture, we can demand change--acupuncture should be available to all. It's not yet covered by Medicare---change that. If Medicare covers drugs, surely Medicare should cover a helpful, harmless, effective treatment.

I can't begin to say enough positive things about Laura!…read more However, I will start with, she is an amazing, gifted healer! From the moment I met her, she presented herself with a welcoming, kind, compassionate and calming presence. She truly listens and hears what your issues and concerns are! I had been diagnosed with a sprained rotator cuff, which was not only painful and limiting, but draining me of my energy! Although I love my primary care doc, his solution was to put me on heavy duty anti-inflammatory meds, which can be hard on your liver and have side-effects as well! I am not a stranger to acupuncture and was able to get an appt near where I live... I was fortunate enough to be seen by Laura.:) I had recently lost my husband, which Laura took into account with compassion, as well as my injury. I hope I am stating this correctly, but she explained that grieving can also contribute to the injury healing and that you hold grief in the left side of your body... the sprain is in my left side. Laura started with a 'clearing'... which I can only explain as "getting rid of my junk" ... I felt revived when leaving that day! I continued to see her for several more appts. I'm happy to say that my shoulder has improved 100% from when I had my first treatment, as well as other issues I had been having! Now for some gentle strengthening exercises. ;) I will continue to see Laura for monthly overall maintenance. I know there is more 'JUNK' to work on! ;) THANK YOU LAURA ROSE, you were, and are, a Godsend to me at a very difficult time in my life... Angels are watching over me! :)
