Dr Kim is the real deal. He's a bit on the matter of fact tone probably given his Korean background but he helped me tremendously. I would without a doubt, recommend him for your acupuncture, pain management needs. I went in with 15/10 pain in my neck and thoracic area. I went to PT and another acupuncturist day before and now I was needing another acupuncture treatment session. Dr Kim's session was no joke, it was intense and painful but necessary. He does acupuncture with electrodes to spasm the muscle and tire the muscles out. So painful but so effective. I was so sore. He then proceeded with cupping then medicinal tincture with heating pad. All together it helped me by 50%. I think I will return again soon because I still have residual neck pain and tightness. No regrets with Dr Kim. And his sessions are reasonable: $60/session whether 1st visit or follow up. Decor is clean and nice, like the raymour flanigan couch, dark relaxing walls. read more

This place is great! I've been wanting to do acupuncture for a while and did some research on places till I found this place. Mr Kim is very empathetic and helpful. He also makes you feel comfortable during each appointment. It's also easy to schedule appointments. read more

So happy to find this place and the amazing results I am so quickly receiving for carpal tunnel syndrome. For months I have been suffering going to OT and just in horrible pain. Communication is excellent with office and easy to book appointments . read more

One word, AMAZING!!!!! I came to Dr. Kim for migraine problems and to treat the night sweats that come with pre-menopause. Now he is treating a digestive issue I have since I was a little girl and helping my broken toe heal faster. Dr. Kim is like a one stop shop for your health without annoying chemicals going into your body! I love, and I emphasized LOVE coming for my treatments. I felt the difference from my first treatment and holy cow, no pill in the world can work that fast! I broke my toe during the holidays and I was having nerve pain from my toe to my heel. Guess what? Dr. Kim treated that issue and it was gone as soon as he fished the session. My toe is healing very nicely and "faster than expected", as my podiatrist told me. My migraines are gone with the acupuncture and the cupping has helped me tremendously. My tummy issue is getting better. I am extremely happy I came to Dr. Kim and attending to the health issues I have been dealing for years. I highly recommend Dr. Kim. He is very professional, knowledgeable, his office is very nice and easy to get to. His assistant is very sweet and efficient. I look forward to my treatments and how good I feel after. Stay healthy! read more

Came here for fertility treatment a year ago and now I'm home with my 4 month old baby girl!! Great place, highly recommend. ! read more

Found this place through yelp and set up an appointment for my mom. She was having muscle aches around the next and shoulder so we came in for acupuncture. Dr.Kim was present and available to attend all care and the front desk was also very polite and patient. Not a huge facility, but his expertise seemed high in the scale. Started with electric acupuncture into hot pack and ended with cupping. He told us a second appointment was needed to have progressive recovery so we're looking forward to that! First appt; 80$ Second appt; 60$ read more

Great dr . I had neck concerns and did the treatment it worked and will go back as it did help decrease pain.

I suffer a pretty bad injure with my shoulder where I can't do any types of pulling with my left arm. At first I was skeptical about acupuncture but my sister in law who also were a patient from Dr Kim highly recommended me to try it. Well, a month went by and I'm all heal now and able to do weight training again. I will like to point out that Dr Kim and his Staff are very professional and friendly and they even remember my name the second time I went back. Also they have 2 or 3 parking space for patient to use which is great consider Flushing is close to impossible to find parking space! Once again thanks Dr Kim! read more

I cannot recommend Regen Acupuncture highly enough! I came in with severe neck pain. Dr. Kim took his time and evaluated me, discussing the treatment that he felt would best suit my needs. He carefully explained how/why the treatment would help me. My neck feels so much better after my treatment! Dr. Kim is the only acupuncturist who treats patients, so you know that you'll see him every time, which makes for continuity. This is not true at other acupuncture places, where you might see a different person every time you go, so they are not familiar with your situation. His staff is professional and courteous, and worked with me to schedule an appointment that fit in with my busy schedule. If you need acupuncture treatment, save yourself some time and just make an appointment with Regen Acupuncture. They are the best! read more

I lost weight with Dr. TAEHOON 15lbs 7weeks. I went Regen Acupuncture once a weeks, check inbody, which shows detail of my body, and taking medicine. I struggled with lose weght all my life, but I failed every time. Dr. TAEHOON taught me many knowledge of health diet. He is really nice and makes me have a confidence of shape. I think the Diet program is most healthy, patients centered and prevent yo-yo phenomenon. I strongly recommend Regen Acupuncture, if someone want lose weight!!!!! read more

Actually, I got a very bad allergic reaction to the moxibustion treatment the doctor recommended. I got blisters all over my body the next day. Since I might just be an isolated case (not everybody might be allergic) I'm just taking off 1 star read more

When my orthopedist recommended acupuncture as a compliment to the other things prescribed for my back and neck pain I was open minded, but I took a stutter-step once I saw the price. As a student there was no way I was going to pay $150 for something I wasn't remotely confident. A few months later with the pain still there I took interest when I saw a Groupon for Regen Acupuncture and decided it was time. The first thing worth noting about this facility is that it's very clean, and highly professional. Two things that mattered above all else to me. After my first treatment I felt some relief but I wasn't sure what to attribute it to. When I went in for my second treatment I was in the worst of pain so we did acupuncture followed by cupping, which was amazing. Two days later I'm still feeling quite a bit better which is great considering I haven't gone two days without neck pain in years. I still don't know what to attribute to the acupuncture itself, but cupping I will definitely continue long term. I have one more acupuncture appointment before Christmas break but I expect to schedule some more after I return. Summary: Clean, professional, friendly, highly recommended. read more

TaeHoon really took care of my Father after his operation from the hospital. His Anecdotal for my Father's post operative recovery with his Herbal decoction was a miracle. Since Taehoon listen to my father pains and remarks he understood exactly what would help my father recovery. My father recover quicker then normal now feeling better then ever, and seems he never went into surgury. Taehoon alternative medicine was very helpful and also help treat us with the Herbal decoction whenever we feel sick instead of going to a regular doctor. I feel it's more heathful and less side effects then prescription medicine. I highly recommend Taehoon as he is a real Professional and he is a Gem to find! read more

Hi, I went to Regen because I had shoulder/arm pains but did not want to go to a Western doc and get prescriptions to mask the pain. I wanted to cure the pain. Found Regen via Yelp and wanted give back to the community with a review. Called and made an appointment - they take most insurance with $30 copay. Call first to make sure. Office is located in the first floor of a large apartment building. Parking lot is available for free. Clean and quiet office, not an assembly line acupuncture office where they make you wait forever and then rush you out. Very pleasant office. This was my first acupuncture, I was a little nervous - Dr. Kim really calm me down. He is very knowledgeable and efficient. The needles were not painful at all. The electric simulation was not something I was expecting, but it was none the less great for the pain. Cupping was the last part, I'm sure you need it before. Glass cup all your back, I enjoy that - BUT afterwards - it looks like someone gave you giant circular hickeys all over your back. Now the pain, first session help a little. The 2nd visit was AWESOME - pain almost gone. The 3rd visit - pain all gone from shoulder/arm. Pretty amazing - no prescription drugs involved at all. Highly recommended - Dr. Kim is excellent on what he does - very in tune with the new and old generations. Call and make an appointment - I'm glad I did. Please note - I do not know Kim personally - this is all based on my visits to Regen Acupuncture. read more

I went to see Dr. Kim about sore shoulders/fatigue from too much desk-sitting and some unrelated sports injuries in my lower body (sore knee, Achilles tendon pain). Dr. Kim was very informative, explaining different reasons for my discomfort and how I might be able to prevent it in the future. This was my second experience with acupuncture. My previous experience with acupuncture was after a sports-related groin injury (not with Dr. Kim). The treatment that first time was effective, but I didn't completely feel comfortable because I did not feel like the procedures were adequately explained to me, and before I knew it needles were being stuck in sensitive areas around my groin. On the other hand, Dr. Kim was careful to explain to me the different procedures he was going to use, so even when I had a needle stuck in my head (which, admittedly, made me feel a bit lightheaded) I knew what to expect. My favorite procedure was the cupping, which I must say has relieved my sore shoulders (still going strong a week later, and the dinosaur hickeys are going away). I definitely feel that my muscles are less tense and I feel less of a need to constantly crack my shoulder blades like I usually do. Dr. Kim also gave me an herbal supplement to drink-- it doesn't taste like ice cream or chocolate or anything too pleasant, but I think my overall energy level has gone up in the past week. read more

My father was diagnosed with Bell Palsy. We tried 2 other acupuncturist before coming to Regen. I was mostly impressed with the care given by the Dr. He took time to understand symptoms, what medications he was on, and explain more about the causes. The acupuncture treatment was spot on. He gave 2 level shocks and warm cloth treatment. It lasted an hour. My father recovered in about 2.5 weeks!! Highly recommend this for anyone read more

Last year I was crawling up walls with a crazy pain shooting from the left side of my buttocks all the way down my left leg. I had never experienced a pain like that not even when I was given birth to my son. After visiting my doctor 3 times + an X ray ( showing no injuries,) + a pain killer prescription (WHICH I NEVER USED BECAUSE I DO NOT TAKE MEDICATION) my mother suggested to do accupunture. Without hesitation I looked into Yelp and found the only person who was able to get rid of my unbearable pain, DR. KIM. There were few reviews about the doctor and all 5 stars. When I walked into the office, I saw a small intimate CLEAN place, which I liked immediately. Dr. Kim asked me a lot of health related questions and about the pain I was experiencing. " SCIATICA NERVE PAIN and It will not take more than 3 sessions" said Dr. Kim. By session #3, I was PAIN FREE. Two weeks ago, I started to experience some lower back pain and with out hesitation I called to make an appointment with the one and only Dr. Kim. 2 sessions later I am pain free. Every review on this page describes Dr. Kim like he is. THANK YOU DR. KIM. read more

Dr. Kim was very kind, professional, and conscientious. During the intake, he asked lots of questions about my back pain and proceeded with both acupuncture and cupping. He also did scraping on the second visit (which is a firm pressure massage with a smooth tool, not painful, but quite effective). After two sessions, my acute back pain was gone and I was discharged with a recommendation to try a local yoga studio and reduce work-related stress ;-P. His office was very clean and nicely decorated for a calm, peaceful environment. *Note: Dr. Kim's office is located in a residential building, in case you're likely to walk past, like I almost did. read more

I agree with all the other review comments. I actually went there after reading all of reviews on yelp. I suffer from muscle pain in my shoulder after a car accident. Dr. Kim was very helpful in zoning into the pain and helped loosen those specific muscle groups. Previously I have tried physical therapy which I didn't see significant results in. Best thing about Dr. Kim is he mixes his knowledge of both western and eastern medicine and finds a balance between the two, to help the problem. Additionally, the deciding factor about Dr. Kim was that I read a review that said he discharged a patient after 3-4 visits. I used to work for a doctor's office and it was all about money there. The general doctor would want to see the patients ever 3 weeks without any discharged dates/notice. Dr. Kim is genuine and isn't like the money hungry doctors you experience in the western medical world (in my experience). He listens to you and tries his best to help the situation until it's better. He recommends other ways to help the problem, in the long run, outside of his office as well. That is how you know he is genuine. I will definetly recommend Dr. Kim to everyone I know! Thanks Dr. Kim! read more

The treatments have been semi-effective. For my anxiety, this has been 60% effective. For this recently, had needles implanted into the ears to calm my mind. It does seem to help with mental clarity. Hoping it continues to hold up. For weight loss, it has been pretty good. Healthier way of doing it and the doctor prepares some advice on weight loss. The last treatment seemed to spread out the qi stagnation to the entire body creating a numbing effect. read more

I am so happy I found this place! The place is very clean, the receptionist is very nice and polite. Dr. Kim is very professional, very nice and caring. Today was my first time doing acupuncture and I was a little bit nervous and anxious and got panic attack a little bit (silly me lol) but he was doing his best to calm me down. I came over there today because I've been dealing with stress and anxiety, I also want to lose weight. I can't wait for my next appointment next Saturday. Thank you Dr. Kim!!!! read more

I suffer from chronic migraines. I have tried all that is in book to find relief. A coworker suggested Acupunture, but couldn't remember where she went. I looked up on yelp and glad I found Dr. Kim. The frequency of getting headaches is reduced to the level that sometimes I forget I have a condition. And pain is not severe. One OTC is enough. And the best part Dr. Kim is very considerate. In case, I get headache he arranges emergency appointment. And after the treatment I don't even need an OTC pill. Office staff is very nice and the place is full of positive energy. read more

Returning patient for acupuncture treatment for lack of focus and fatigue, and TaeHoon always continues to help you after each treatment. TaeHoon gave both front and back treatments with enough time to relax and feel re-energized after getting up. I truly know that acupuncture can help the body and I will continue getting additional treatments. The waiting room and especially the treatment room had the perfect warm temperature feeling instead of the cold freezing temperature outside. This was important because it made you feel at ease way before starting the treatment. Nothing during the treatment and after made you concerned about anything else. TaeHoon always checked to see if your all right during the treatment and answer any questions or provide additional advice regarding Traditional Chinese Medicine. I would recommend anyone nearby to see TaeHoon to help you or anyone else you may know. read more

Dr. Kim has help me with my tinnitus and my stress and has improve my overall health so much.

I highly recommend Dr. Kim. He is highly skilled and knowledgeable. I had seen other acupuncturists before coming to see Dr. Kim, none of them was as thorough and patient, especially in explaining the possible cause of my medical issue and the treatment plan and goal. Everything was explained very clearly. I started seeing result after a few treatments, given acupuncture is noninvasive, which takes time yet has minimal to no side effects. read more

I had this feeling that something was stuck in my chest/throat area for a couple of months, but I wasn't able to figure out what was wrong. After not having much luck with western medicine, I decided to turn to traditional Chinese medicine. I decided to go to Regen Acupuncture because of the amazing reviews from other patients online. The clinic was extremely clean, organized, and therapeutic. The staff was extremely attentive and friendly. When I told Dr. Kim of what I was feeling, he knew exactly what was wrong. Dr. Kim said it was Plum Pit Qi/ Qi stagnation. I was then given a tailored herbal treatment. After taking the herbs, I felt a lot better and the feeling of having something stuck in my throat was gone. Dr. Kim is extremely professional and experienced in his field. I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Kim. read more

I have been suffering with intense back injuries for a year now. I had tried regular physical therapy and even though it was helping a little, I was not seeing a huge change. I had been considering trying acupuncture but I was hesitant with the overly saturated acupuncture practices in Flushing, so I was very happy to find Dr. Kim for intimate one on one Chinese Medicinal treatments. He is very knowledgeable, skillful professional, not to mention one of the kindest medical practitioners I have ever had. Dr. Kim actually listens and caters each session to my needs for that day. I have been getting acupuncture and cupping done for some weeks now. Even though the cupping bruises are not very sexy, especially on a female, it removes deep tissue pain and is well worth it in exchange for some red circles that disappear over a few days. Simultaneously, he has been treating my eczema, which has been out of control due to stress from the pain. Along with acupuncture he has been making a special herbal concoction to drink that helps my body distress and digest to clear up my skin. My eczema is finally under control and I rarely have severe breakouts like before. I love that every visit to Regan Acupuncture starts on time and lasts about the same amount of time so I can plan my day in advance. I always pick Dr. Kim's brain during sessions about diet, exercise and overall health to learn more about how I can be mindful of my body and mind outside of the office visits. He is always open and willing to give any information, and even gives tips without me asking. I am feeling and seeing great results, Dr. Kim is helping my body heal as a whole. I would I highly recommend him to anyone that wants to try alternative medicine for whatever health issues they are having. I have done my own research on acupuncture and always ask questions to learn more, and it is very versatile and can help treat anything across the board. read more

I visited Regen for the first time to alleviate my neck/shoulder spasms. I have never had an experience with acupuncture before so I was a bit nervous. Upon consultation, I was given honest advice and was told exactly what was going to happen during my appointment. It was actually relaxing and he was considerate of my comfort level and told me exactly what was going to happen next. At the end he told me I did not need to return if my symptoms were relieved. It has been a week later and I definitely feel much better. I would come back in the future and recommend anyone to try for the first time. read more

Dr. Kim is a highly professional and effective acupuncturist and herbalist. He was able to listen carefully and accurately diagnose the issues behind my symptoms. As a novice to traditional Chinese medicine, I felt completely comfortable with Dr. Kim's explanation of each procedure. Even though it was my first time with acupuncture, I felt safe in Dr. Kim's capable hands. He also created my own herbal remedy bottle, which was specifically tailored to my needs. I was also impressed by his reasonable rates, which seem to be very competitive given his location and quality of service. read more

Dr Kim is very polite. He has helped me with joint pain in my shoulders that I no longer have issues with and with other pain management. I highly recommend him. read more

Taekoon is a miracle worker! I struggled with infertility for 5 yrs and have been to other acupuncturists and have not been successful at getting pregnant. I started with Taekoon twice a week three wks before my IVF transfer and the embryos made it to my uterus. This is not my first IVF and i have also had surgery and 4 IUIs that were unsuccessful. I am now 2 wks pregnant thanks to Taekoon. I never thought it would happen bc I have so many reproductive issues and feel like my dreams are finally coming true at 42 yrs old. I almost gave up. I am continuing with Taekoon once per wk until my first trimester is over and maybe more. When I am at Regen I never feel pain with the needles like I did at other places. He is so gentle, kind and understanding. If you have an issue he will try to bring his experiences in to help you. I am now a faithful client. Thank you Taekoon! read more

Dr. Kim makes you feel right at home and he really listens to the patients. He not only offers traditional acupunture practice, but he also offers well-planned weight loss program. Office is very cozy and Dr. Kim is friendly. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my acupuncture needs!!! read more

Pretty good so far. I've been twice and had good experience both times. The doctor seems to know his herbs very well and I have some that are helping me immensely. read more

Kim is not a doctor of either Chinese nor Western allopathic medicine; rather he has merely taken a two-year course that skims both practices. One of his acupuncture points on my head became infected and the cupping on my arm left me very bruised for a couple of weeks. I had excellent results with other Chinese trained practitioners in the past that included cupping that resulted in very short-lived marks on my skin; but those practitioners were doctors who had trained for at least 8 years in China. read more

I'm so happy to have found TaeHoon, he is a TRUE professional and thoroughly explains everything to you. I don't know why there aren't more reviews for him...maybe because we (the patients) are trying to keep this GEM all to ourselves :) My husband started going to him about a month ago and has noticed significant improvement. The place is quiet and there's never more than 1 other patient in the office with you. The office is clean and they have set the atmosphere there to make you FEEL more peaceful. We live in Brooklyn but travel all the way to Flushing for this treatment. read more

Dr. Kim was great. I have had shoulder pain for years and even contemplated having rotator cuff surgery. Dr. Kim using cupping on my shoulder and although it was very painful (Dr. Kim explained that cupping on the shoulder is much more painful than the back) IT WORKED! I am now able to put my arm all the way back, lift objects above my head and raise my arm out to the side. Thank you Dr. Kim . read more

I found this doctor through my fellow Yelpers ( thank you ). I took a chance with a painful back strain almost stopped me from going on vacation. I almost lost my mind from the pain and unable to walk I was desperate. I called many location but sadly most of the doctors was not willing to take me in on a late Saturday afternoon. I looked through Yelp for doctors (mainly for acupuncture). Due to the great reviews from Yelp I took a chance and thank God it worked out for me. I can truthfully say the next day I was feeling much better. I was able to walk without any pain. The doctor was willing to give me the last appointment on Saturday. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond to get my insurance information for my first appointment. You can always speak and ask questions from the doctor. He is very kind and informative. Every time I received treatment, I felt much progress towards my recovery. read more

I cannot speak more highly of how much better I feel after 1 session. I came in about a week ago with huge pain in my back and shoulder and tingling in my arm after a sports related injury. I was told I may need maybe 3 sessions, but after just 1 I was 1000 times better!! I will definitely return every time I'm injured (which happens frequently for me!) seriously. I've done acupuncture before, and never had results like this. Highly recommend!! read more

My mom had been struggling with sleeping since early December. This isn't her first time, and when she gets these bouts it's pretty bad. Dr. Kim prescribed a herbal formula and her sleep improved within a couple of days. She did experience mild side effects, and he told her how to adjust her intake. My mom was so relieved to be sleeping well again, so she wanted to order a month's worth. However, Dr. Kim said to just take two weeks to see if that would be enough. He also mailed her formula after she ran out (she's in New Jersey). read more

Dr. Kim is absolutely wonderful. Very knowledgeable. He listens to the problems and work with me. I have been using acupuncture treatments for about 30 years. Lost my last doctor. After a long search, I found Dr. Kim. It's a real blessing to have him helping me with my acute problems. My friends noticed the difference in me after my treatments. I recommended friends to him. And will continue to do so. Thank you Dr. Kim for taking such a good care of me. Dr. Kim also using "cupping" method. That woks well as well. read more
