    Lysa is the BEST acupuncturist in Northern Va, possibly in the entire state of VA, hands down. She…read moreis extremely knowledgeable, intuitive, and in-tune with her customers body. If your acupuncturist can't accurately tell you what's going on with your body by listening to your pulse (I thinks she also does a technique where she looks at your tongue), then you need to leave him/her and make an appointment with Lysa immediately. I've been going to Lysa for a little over a decade now and she never ceased to amaze me. Last week I visited her and as she was taking my pulse, she asked me if I had been drinking? I don't drink, aside from Kombucha (which has small traces of alcohol). She told me something was going on with my liver, my blood levels were low and she also mentioned my liver was doing a lot of detoxing. I was confused for a moment, then I remembered I had been drinking several cups of a tea called "Food for the Blood" for a few weeks. She told me to stop drinking it. Apparently I was going overboard with detoxing/purifying my blood. She must've seen the stunned look on my face because she chuckled and said "Your body told on you." I'm going to start calling her the "Body Whisperer." Lysa is the truth. I'm so glad I found her. I've followed her from Eden Center, to Silver Spring and now back to Falls Church. I refer everyone to her and all who have seen her are happy they did. From sciatica to multiple sclerosis, she will help you find relief. I will often go see her first if I'm experiencing any aches or pains, she has never steered me wrong. Her approach is to help you identify the root cause of the issue, so that you understand why it manifested in your body in the first place (I.e., my fibroids). You will need to do the mental work and she will use all the techniques in her armamentarium to treat you/rid you of the issue. After I leave Healing Tao, I often feel rejuvenated. If your looking for a highly experienced and knowledgeable traditional holistic practitioner who's patient focused, kind, honest and stays abreast of the myriad of healing modalities you need to go and see Lysa. Jalal will check you in. You can't miss him, he's the extremely professional guy at the front desk, with nice eyes, lol.

She has a special connection to her work and her passion shows through. My ailments have been improved with every visit. I highly recommend Lysa for acupuncture treatments, be sure to book ahead she gets fully booked very fast.

The whole staff is very knowledgeable and I have seen a huge difference. Multiple insurances are accepted but the out of pocket is extremely reasonable and affordable as well. The focus here is truly healing and it is obvious with every appointment.

    I found out about the AOM Clinic by accident. I was given a name of a friend's acupuncturist who I…read morecalled and emailed but didn't return my call until 3 minutes AFTER Mr. Rim's call. Timing is everything and I truly believe everything happens for a reason. I didn't know what to expect at all. All I knew is that I was sick and tired of going to doctors, paying a stupid co-pay for them to NOT do anything or give suggestions on care after a Baker's Cyst. The problem with traditional doctors, I believe, is they don't want to tell you how to be proactive because they want you to keep coming back. I found out (through no proactive help of my doctors) that my Baker's Cyst was caused by a mild case of arthritis in my knee. It was slowing down my healing and I was having problems walking and forget about working out (jogging, zumba) because I was in so much pain. After the first painless (and I mean painless) visit to AOM, I felt a positive shift in my body. I could walk up and down my stairs with less pain. The next day I went out for my usual 2 mile walk and felt energized. My recovery has been progressing quite well. I drive 2 - 3 hours a night for work and usually am in such pain afterwards. Not anymore. I honestly don't know how acupuncture works, I just know that it works for me. I went to AOM and was truly impressed with first of all, Mr Rim's humbleness in regards to the MANY and I mean MANY diploma and certificates on his wall. He's a smarty pants. Mr Rim instantly puts you at ease and explains everything in a way that YOU can understand. As a trainer, I can appreciate that skill. AOM clinic is sterile, well organized and is growing. I am excited to see what the future holds at his clinic because he is about healing the mind, body and spirit. Mr Rim, Kamsahamnida!

I did a simple google search for practices in the area and here I am. I wish I had stumbled upon this YELP before booking, but this YELP only further validate my finding today: this is a great place with a great mantra and approach. Instantly comfortable. I was pretty much blown away by how instantly calm I felt. The doctors expertise radiates off her- everything she said and did today pinpointed all the reasons I decided to try acupuncture. Already looking forward to my next appointment. If you are like me and wondering what you can do to improve your general wellness do not hesitate and book your initial consultation here. I'm looking forward to seeing what the treatment plan will do for me in the long run!

Prioritize your self-care and reach out to Dr. Converti to restore your health. This provider treats your whole person with her holistic approach. However, she is also highly educated and current on Western medicine and all anatomical systems of the human body. When I began treatment over a year ago, my health issues had consumed me - anxiety, acid reflux, asthma and post concussion syndrome were impeding my success. I was embarrassed by my many issues. After one session, I mentioned an issue for next session. Taejean - unfazed - helped me back on the table and gently advised that she would be treating that issue today. She was responsible for my entire health. WOW. To date, Taejean is the only doctor who wanted to be that for me - a healer. She has taught me so much and enhanced my well-being. I will never forget her kindness and am grateful that Taejean has chosen to be a part of my life.

He is super kind, professional, welcoming, friendly, and, of course, a guru! I was suffering from severe back and leg pain, and Dr. Yeon provided great relief - I've never had acupuncture, so I was nervous and scared. But, Dr. Yeon was sooo kind, very informative, listened to all my symptoms, asked questions, and provided a treatment plan. I was put at ease right away! The acupuncture itself was actually relaxing and not painful - this is coming from someone who has absolutely no threshold of pain! I found complete relief while walking out to my car - it was crazy! A miracle! Some services that this clinic provides besides acupuncture are taping therapy, tuina massage therapy, cupping, and herbal medicine. If you're experiencing back/neck pain, pain from arthritis, osteoarthritis, bursitis, tennis elbow, sciatica, myofascial, menstrual cramps, and other chronic pain, having headaches/migraines, or have diabetes, see Dr. Yeon! The office is very warm and inviting, extremely clean, and smells sooo good. If you're a germ freak like me, you'll appreciate how sanitized this place is! Dr. Yeon's wife is super sweet and very compassionate (they both are!!!) - she will take good are of you in terms of session follow-up movements and exercises, and working with your schedule to making your next appointments. If you are suffering and are in pain, I highly recommend in seeking Dr. Yeon - it really, really works. Plenty of parking in the business plaza lot. +see Dr. T.

I actually fell asleep during the session with how much tension left my body. Dr. Yeon and Mrs. Yeon are amazing and so caring for everyone. Nobody is just a patient, but rather a person they are seeking to help. They are very thorough in their care and make sure my whole experience has been pleasant. If you are on the fence about acupuncture in general or looking for a new place, 10/10 recommend trying here. They also specialize in medicine and a specific type of massage that's similar to the effects of acupuncture -- a very rare care form that you really won't find in the states. You'll feel like family at this family business.

My mom was really reluctant to go and is now glad she did! This treatment center blends time-honored East Asian medicine with modern medical approaches, offering a more holistic path to healing -- finding the root of the issue not just managing symptoms. Dr. Parker was a GEM! She gave us a tour of their herbal dispensary, where they blend specific herbs to support internal healing, treating the body both inside and out. She shared how certain factors contribute to my back fatigue before starting my treatment. The acupuncture itself was a 2-3 on the pain scale, since I am ticklish, I did jump a whole lot. Acupuncture focuses on specific points to help restore balance and activate the body's natural healing mechanisms--it's like a reset. The cupping felt like a 1 on the pain scale. incredibly relaxing from start to finish. Cupping replenished the cupped areas with healthier blood flow, stimulating healing at a cellular level. Despite being ticklish, I didn't find either treatment painful. My mom received the same treatment for her leg and said she felt fantastic afterward. The clinic offers 1:1 professional acupuncture or discounted student-led treatments, making it accessible for all. My back feels amazing and I've had the best sleep in a long time. Parking is plentiful as well!
