Or, if you've ever questioned the possibility of herbal supplements superseding pharmaceuticals. I have a debilitating illness that causes chronic pain and fatigue. No medications have helped, only hurt, with horrifying side effects. I was in really bad shape when I started with Soraya. I was skeptical and worried about the cost as my insurance didn't cover. However, what I found was RELIEF were there have been none for so long and at a very affordable price. Soraya worked with me on every aspect of my well-being. I take natural herbal supplements now, not pharmaceuticals. I see her twice a week for acupuncture. I also changed my diet and started doing yoga. I truly enjoy sound healing which Soraya also offers. I truly believe Soraya has saved my life! I still deal with an illness but I now have the tools to not only cope but to thrive. I even lost weight without trying, just following Soraya's guidance on being in a healthier and happier frame of mind. She helped me learn these things by explaining, checking in and truly caring, not by meeting for 15 minutes and writing a pharmaceutical prescription. If you are ready to feel better and be happier, give Soraya a call. Or meet her at one of her yoga classes if you just want to be healthier and happier. She truly cares. She is a God Send!

I had a uterus and cervical biopsy today and Mei-Lin was able to calm my anxiety after the procedure and ease my cramps.

I appreciate the fact that I can make an appointment or reschedule (48 hour notice) online. No hassles!

Dr. Mei-Lin is amazing!…read more In our quest for parenthood, I stumbled upon Maunakea Acupuncture. My Obgyn said to just continue trying and come back in a year if nothing happens. Me (being my impatient self) wanted to explore other possibilities. I'm still young and relatively healthy, so I was looking for a naturopathic option. She did an extensive consultation and walked me through the plan before we started acupuncture. She asked about things like my diet, lifestyle, and gave me great advice on what I should/shouldn't do. The next appointment was scheduled for acupuncture. I'm not sure if it was the timing or the stars just aligned. I immediately got pregnant after the first session! A pregnancy test confirmed it a month later on Father's Day. I saw her religiously during the first trimester and sparingly throughout my pregnancy. Based off my pulse, she was able to identify the baby's gender and confirmed we're having a boy! Now, a year later, we have a healthy and happy baby boy! I still see her once a month post partum to help my body heal. Thank you Dr. Mei-Lin! PS She also helped fix my reoccurring knee and ankle pains Thanks for reading my reviews! Let me know what I should try next!

Tak Wah Tong, one of the few Chinese medicinal herbal stores in Hawaii, and Dr. Lok On Lau is a…read morevery nice doctor. I haven't been to a store like this myself to see the doctor for an assessment to better my health. In fact, it's been a very, very long time since I've drank those type of Chinese medicinal herbs. It's always been my parents and grandparents combining their own ingredients that was taught to them from their parents and grandparents or other family members, and possibly they were taught by older generations too. When I was a kid, I dreaded drinking that bitter, thick, black concoction. I already felt sick, the smell and taste of it makes even feel worse!! Why? Why? Why?! I made a deal with my parents and grandparents to drink it in one gulp only if I can have a candy--a candy chaser lol. Well, I'm not a kid now (on the outside, at least), so I don't think I need one now? I was recommended Tak Wah Tong from a client. She used it for her sickness. I normally rely on Western medicine to get the job done for quick relief and quick healing, but Western medicines doesn't improve your health from the inside as Traditional Chinese medicine. Tak Wah Tong is located in the Chinatown Cultural Plaza among Beretania. It's in the inner part of the plaza, next to the big stage, and near Won Kee and Legend Seafood restaurants. You'll be greeted by a kind elder gentleman and lady. They both can speak Cantonese, Mandarin, and very understandable English. You explain your issues and health concerns to the doctor, and he will check and feel your pulse on both your wrists. Then he will write up his ingredients list to make your herbal drink. After that, they both go to work, and gather and weigh all your ingredients. I have really no idea on the cost as I've never did this. My family usually just buys the whole bags and prepare at home. I did the 5-day plan and that ran me $60 even. Seems okay. They only accept Cash or Check, no credit or debit cards. No need appointment. The inside of the store is clean and well-lit. I'm surprised there was no giant apothecary cabinet, but everything was in jars and containers along the wall and scattered here and there. Overall, I do strongly believe in Traditional Chinese medicine. Whenever I was sick, and Western medicine fails, Chinese medicine always heals me. Western medicine gets straight to the point for quick relief, and Chinese medicine heals within and the hidden, underlying issue. I'm only day three of my medicine, but hopefully it'll work in the long run.

If you know me, you will know that I am a clean freak/germaphobe. As funny as it may sound to you, hearing the washing of hands between patients in the adjacent area was EVERYTHING!!! I've been to two other clinics in Honolulu and neither of them ever washed their hands. Treatment-wise, Dr. Kim was very thorough in her analysis and gave me valuable TCM recommendations for self-care with diet and exercise. The visual aids also gave me a clearer understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine and my own constitution. Generally speaking, I am not fond of needles of any kind BUT I am a firm believer in TCM and acupuncture. I have learned to tolerate needles. I am so grateful beyond words to have found Dr. Kim and Gu Fang Traditional Chinese Medicine!!! I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

This is my 3rd time going to see Kyle. I found him on Yelp, and want to thank the previous yelpers…read morewho wrote a review because that really helped me in making my decision to give him a try. He is located in Kailua, and works out of a home office. He takes his time to listen to your problem and will recommend treatment. I asked for estim with my acupuncture treatment. He also provided some suggestions for stretching to help alleviate some pain and prevent reinjury. He also did ear seeding, where he places a tiny tiny seed-like metal pin in my ear as an acupressure point. If you can take the pain I would recommend doing it. Each time I have gone kyle has provided relief to my pain. The price is very reasonable, I am sure each individual treatment is different. I would HIGHLY recommend that if you are looking for an acupuncture treatment on the Windward side, give him a call. He does not push you to purchase any product that he has available, he doesn't even tell you about them. But he has products set up around his treatment area. If you have question ask about them. Personally, I did purchase the ice rub, it was in a roll-on style glass, and it is great! You don't really feel it like other muscle rubs but you will know it is working. Enjoy !!

If you've never experienced FST (Fascial Stretch Therapy) you are missing out! Windward Oahu is so lucky to have Leslie Wright! I've been practicing massage therapy for 28 years and can share with experience & confidence, this gal is skilled! I enjoyed my session soooo much, it was like having a soothing dance expertly performed on me. Oh, and she trained directly with the founders of FST for over a year! Don't let her young appearance fool you, she has been practicing for just under 20 years. This modality of assisted stretching is sooooo much more than improving muscle flexibility! Think joint health & range of motion and of course... fascia. I decided to try FST because I have chronic pain in my low back, hips, (including flexors) and read in an issue of "Massage Therapy"magazine that the gentle FST approach is VERY effective in improving my kind of issues. If you relate, GET A PACKAGE! Ill say it again, GET A PACKAGE! I cant wait for my next session with Leslie! Just gotta try it!
