I wasn't big on acupuncture because I've been to many different places and hadn't seen much results from my experience. However after seeing Joohee, my concerns have improved. After one treatment, the long pitch ringing in my ear night is gone! Now we're working on gut health and I can see it has also improved! My digestion is better. My body is overall feeling well balanced! I would definitely recommend this place to others. Joohee is very caring and knowledgeable.

I wanted to wait a couple months before writing this review to give this acupuncture business an…read moreaccurate assessment based on the outcomes I've obtained. I have rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and have taken the holistic approach to treating my disease. I decided to try acupuncture to see if it could assist with my inflammation and pain. I did my research and decided to try Lee Acupuncture based on all the positive reviews. There were even a few reviews coming from arthritis patients who had obtained good results. They're located in a small business plaza that borders Costa Mesa & Newport Beach. The big "Melton Int'l Tackle" sign is a good landmark. They are located all the way down the alley on the right. Free parking is available. The office itself is rather small with 3-4 patient rooms and a small waiting area that's comfortably furnished with 2 chairs, a sofa and some snacks & water. I was pleased to learn that my insurance covered the first 6 sessions (per year) at $40 co-pay per session. After that the rate goes up, but you can buy a package that offers lower rates. The very 1st session was interesting, as they hooked me up to a machine to determine how balanced my energy was flowing internally. It highlighted key areas of improvement. The belief is that the more balanced I am, the less inflammation I will have. Each session is about 1/2 an hour. I started going twice a week, and now I go once a week. I was assigned to Dr. Kim who thoroughly explained everything to me prior to starting, and continues to remain helpful and caring. He inserts the needles in various areas, primarily my hands, feet and head. Sometimes it hurts a little when the needles go in, and a couple times I've bled after the needles came out, but that's probably because it hit a vein. I lay on the table for 1/2 hour and feel very relaxed afterwards. In addition to the acupuncture, I take herbs that I purchase from them for $90 for 1 weeks worth. They said it's very important to keep taking the herbs as it assists with the healing process. I had also read about this online. I take the herbs 2x a day (AM & PM) with food. I mix the herbs with a little water and drink it like a tea. After approximately two months of acupuncture and drinking herbs, I can positively say that my inflammation has gone down significantly. I took a photo of my inflammation on my hands & feet prior to starting, and there has been a big improvement! I will definitely continue seeing Dr. Kim, and I'm so happy I discovered Lee Acupuncture.

Dr. Zhao is amazing. I went in with low expectations - having battled with migraines for 25 years…read more But I thought what else could I lose, having tried every supplement and prescription I had access to. Since starting acupuncture in January 2026 I have not had a migraine since. I've had some mild headaches here and there (days I forgot to drink enough water, or ate garbage), but not my dreaded 3-4 day stuck in bed with all the lights off migraine terror. It's really been amazing. I'm now working with Dr. Zhao on all the other issues I've ignored for so long. The weird tennis elbow/carpal tunnel pain, insomnia, the random chronic things that I just learned to live in pain with. For new patients, you will go into a consultation and then almost seamlessly transition right in to treatment. So a consultation lasts like maybe 10-15 minutes and then the acupuncture (depending on what you have going on) may take 45 minutes. If you just want the consultation, no treatment, you will need to be very clear about this. Dr. Zhao is ready to work, so if you do NOT want treatment you'll need to speak up. My insurance unfortunately does not cover acupuncture ( I have an HSA) so I pay about $185 for cupping and acupuncture per session. I know with other insurance it would be about $15 co-pay. I recommend Dr. Zhao to everyone.

If you're a woman who's TTC, I can't recommend Dr. Zhao enough! After two consecutive losses and…read moresubsequent cycle disruptions, I was left with a lot of questions and searching for real help. An OB/GYN ran my bloodwork--all clear except for hormone imbalances. He gave me progesterone and clomid prescriptions and sent me on my way. That just didn't feel right. I sought out TCM at Dragon Acupuncture for a real solution. Dr. Zhao was very understanding and kind, and immediately went to work with me. I came in for twice weekly acupuncture appointments, and she started me on an herbs regimen. I also did research and tried to abide by TCM diet recommendations for women's cycles. Within four months (Autumn 2024), I found out I was expecting! My husband and I were excited but cautiously optimistic, after the two losses. Fast forward to now. I'm sitting here holding my very healthy and very happy baby! Dr. Zhao's treatment requires time, effort, and investment--and I'd do it again 1000x over.... (and I am! I'm seeing her now to prepare for baby #2)

After years of trying Western medicine and multiple prescriptions, I was honestly losing hope. My…read moremom encouraged me to try TCM, and I'm so glad I did. At my first visit, Dr. Ann read my tongue and accurately described my health issues. She explained how organs support each other, the body's natural clock, and gave very practical lifestyle and diet guidance. The herbs felt pricey at first, but each bottle lasts a long time and focuses on restoring balance. Within weeks, my digestion and metabolism improved. Even my husband is now a believer after seeing results himself. I only wish I had found this earlier and hope more young people give TCM a chance.

It went down many other rabbit holes I did not need to go down. I was told about my low stomach acid, I knew this. So I was recommended a crapload of herb pills plus the ones I originally came for (hair loss) ended up spending $435. I took supplements for one week and started breaking out in hives. So I had to stop!!! Little did I know when you have the issues I have ... Chinese herbs will cause more reactions. So now I'm stuck with a load of Chinese herbs I can't use and im out cash.

In addition with Josephine's attention to detail is a huge asset to this clinic as well, and I strongly advise anyone looking for pain relief or possibly a cure to give them a try.

Highly Recommend for Cupping and Holistic Healing!…read more I've been to Rapha Acupuncture several times for their cupping sessions, and every visit has been an incredibly relaxing and restorative experience. The environment is calming, the staff is knowledgeable, kind, and professional, and I always leave feeling refreshed. Cupping and the red light heat lamp used during the sesssions has truly supported my overall health and wellness. I've noticed real improvements in my circulation and it has been a helpful part of my weight loss journey. I always look forward to my sessions which are very relaxing and a stress relief for me. They have been so nice and accommodating with my schedule. My only wish is that they were closer to my home, but I am happy to make the drive because this place is fantastic. If you're looking for a place to support your healing naturally, I highly recommend giving Rapha a try!

Anyways, desperate and in a ton of pain, I reached out to Susan. I had never done acupuncture before and don't know how it works at all... Susan's warmth and intelligence helped me welcome the fact that I'd willingly be letting her stab me with tons of little needles... but more on that later. Just from watching me walk and placing her hands around my back, she identified the pain points, inflammation points, and also that I've been having shoulder pain for a while, without me mentioning that at all. After an hour long session of cupping and acupuncture, I left feeling a bit sore. But the next morning I felt great, able to get out of bed with considerably less pain and more range of movement. I've since been back 2 times and have been getting better everyday. I believe Susan is trustworthy, honest, and highly talented when it comes to human anatomy. And I am now a believer in acupuncture as a natural path to healing.

(Long post warning) I've been seeing Dr. Hung since July 2019. I came to prepare myself for…read morepregnancy. I was so happy and excited at first when I got pregnant in November 2019 thinking Dr. Hung's herbs and advice really helped. However, I had a miscarriage in December 2019, after enjoying the good news of being a mom for just a little more than a week or so. I was devastated, thinking I must have done something wrong. Did I not sleep enough? Was I too anxious? Is it because my body wasn't ready? Or maybe it was the two sips of coffee that I accidentally drank. Dr. Hung tried to help save my baby with his herbs but it didn't work, which this was no one to blame for sure. I thought, maybe this just wasn't meant to be. Dr Hung had given me treatment with herbs to help my body recover from the lost, which restored my energy and body quickly. Shortly after there comes the pandemic. While I am still taking the herbs to prepare for my next pregnancy, we continued meeting through telehealth. During those 2 months of treatment online, my body had gotten worse. My heart beat has become much faster and I will easily faint. Dr Hung said it was probably due to stress and my body not having enough blood, so he adjusted the herbs. I also decided to visit him in person again as I thought maybe his treatment decisions would be more accurate if he can feel my pulse. A few months after, we've been trying to conceive but still have not succeed. I even took my husband with me to see Dr. Hung to get prepared. In October, Dr Hung told us we can stop taking the herbs and try to conceive (Officially). That's when I realized my heart rate has drastically increased even while resting. I would faint very easily and I have lost a lot of weight. I texted Dr Hung about my situation and he told me to go back to him if I don't get pregnant. With a rising concern of my health, I decided to consult my family doctor regarding my situation. After the blood test, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, which I have no idea I had it prior to this check up. I was disappointed because Dr. Hung wasn't able to detect such issues until I did my blood test. But I still had a little faith in him as he rest assured that Chinese medicine can help with my condition. Constantly reminding me of his credentials and 30 years of experience, he said he can use Chinese herbs to help me and it would be better than taking western meds due to the known and unknown side effects that may even affect my next pregnancy. I asked him if taking the Chinese herbs would affect my thyroid going from hyper to hypo like what the western medicine do, and Dr. Hung said it will not because Chinese herbs will balance the values, unlike western medicine. One month into taking the Chinese herbs, my condition has improved but it also went into the other end of extreme. I became super tired all the time, and also gaining weight. My face would look super puff. I consulted Dr Hung and he said not to worry because the weather is changing and it is getting colder. It is normal to feel sleepy, tired, and feel swollen a little bit. A week later that appointment I took another blood test, before my appointment to the specialist. It was found that not only that I no longer have hyperthyroidism, but I went to the next extreme of being hypothyroidism. The TSH value was extremely high. I was so upset and disappointed with the result. After speaking to Dr. Hung, his explanation was "this proves my meds are super effective!". He explained how different people may have a different reaction to the medications, but in general his meds are effective. He reminded me again his credentials and experience with both Chinese and western medicine. But he refused to acknowledge his misjudgment on my situation, and his incompetence in listening to my concerns with my body even I've told him how I felt. He also went back and refuted what he said about the herbs wouldn't cause such situation by reasoning with how each body reacts differently. He also refused to let me know what are the ingredients in his medication which my specialist would love to know what's in my body and to make the right judgment for my treatment, saying this raises copyright issue. While I truly believe Chinese medicines has its own benefits and I am still a true believer in it, I would like to summarize by saying there are things Chinese medicine can't substitute. A good solid blood test is one for sure, which I think Dr hung would agree himself too. But on top of that, while Chinese herbs can definitely help in many ways, it can also masks the symptoms of what truly lies beneath your body. Do be aware that you won't get to know what you're actually eating and putting inside your body unless Dr Hung would graciously let you know the ingredients. I hope people who are reading this will be aware of the risks and make the right decisions for themselves, especially for people who have similar situation as me.

She…read morehas helped us with speeding up the healing of a torn MCL, ankle sprains, countless muscle/sports injuries, sleep issues, stress levels and even colds in when we could not afford to miss any more days of school. So many times our doctors wonder what we're doing because they are amazed that we heal so quickly. Recently we have seen Dr. Anna for my teens concussion. This is the third concussion. We always see a MD specialist but, there's not a lot to be done but allow time to heal the headaches and sensitivity to light. We decided to try acupuncture with Dr. Anna. After a week of headaches, difficulty in concentrating and light sensitivity we had a treatment. There was a noticeable difference the pain decreased, light sensitivity and concentration improved after treatment. And continued to go down the next few days. So much so that the next doctors appointment scheduled she was able to move into the next stage of return to play and school work. With Dr. Anna's help concussion was healed and my teen returned to school to sports and was able to finish the semester with straight A's even with missing several weeks of school. No lingering side effects have been seen and now it's been 5 months and all is good. My teen is now in another sport and Dr. Anna has helped my athlete with shin splints. After 2 treatments she hasn't had any more pain! Dr. Anna is a true healer with amazing outcomes. Thank you so much!

My teen daughter, a dedicated soprano, lost her voice completely on Tuesday morning from a sudden bout of cough and laryngitis--devastating timing with a major vocal competition looming on Saturday, complete with challenging repertoire.  We were fortunate to see Dr. Anna on Wednesday evening. She treated my daughter with such care, expertise, precision, care and intuition.  She not only addressed the symptoms but made my daughter feel supported and hopeful. Following Dr. Anna's treatment and careful vocal rest, my daughter was able to warm up and sing confidently on Saturday -- and even placed in the competition!

I came across Hoa Da Acupuncture because I had read that acupuncture was good therapy for Bells Palsy. I was hesitant at first to try this therapy but I did because my parents pushed me to trying it. The doctors did not prescribe anything for Bells Palsy besides steroids to relieve inflammation to my nerves. I started therapy with Dr. Han I believe on the 18th of Jun and I saw immediate results that I decided to go for the full therapy. Dr explained that the more times I come to the office the better my recovery time. I've gone to acupuncture approximately 7 visits and I share my results which is at approximately 85% recovery.

Having two kids is life changing, but I love it so much! This review is for Andrea and Kuzu (Kuzu) no longer works there. I was able to see Modus through my (Kaiser) insurance at the time and I went only for fertility support during my rainbow journey. Since my pregnancy journey is over and I have two rainbow miracle babies, I am ready to share my short story. I have been pregnant 5X, lost 3, and gave birth to one rainbow girl in 2012 and one rainbow boy in 2019! With my last pregnancy, I was a nervous wreck and I didn't want to pay for IVF so I did my research. My neighbor suggested acupuncture as she struggled with m/c too and she had a successful pregnancy so I took her advice! Being an older mommy at 40, I was high risk and considered a geriatrics mom at Kaiser. I was lucky enough to be referred to an amazing RE, Dr. Rosenkratz @ Kaiser, and loved him so much!! I was so lucky to have seen him as it was perfect timing cause he left Kaiser and started his own practice a couple mothers after I got pregnant. As I mentioned, I was a nervous wreck! He really changed my world on top of Andrea and Kuzu. I really owe it to them as they were my wingman support team for my 2nd pregnancy. Prior to getting pregnant, Andrea suggested for me to try the "Whole 30 program" and I must have been super fertile cause I got pregnant at the end of the Whole 30 program. With RE, I had 5 polyps removed from my uterus, started to take supplements, and within 2 cycles I got pregnant and had a successful pregnancy. I stopped seeing Modus after my 2nd trimester. I was a nervous wreck the whole pregnancy but wanted to thank Andrea and Kuzu from the bottom of my heart for being my support team when I felt truly scared my whole entire pregnancy! I didn't feel at ease until I was able to carry my baby boy in my arms after he was born. I am truly blessed and my life is full of joy with a dream that came true! Thank you Modus for all of your support and assistance during the most scariest time of my life. Andrea is seriously the best!!
