“Dr. Lee is a supportive, kind and talented healer. I have had many acpuncture sessions in my life, and as a Doctor and Licensed Acupuncturist myself, I am grateful to both receive the powerful healings on his table and to refer my own patients to him. His warmth, intellect, compassion and diagnostic skills provide a nourishing and deep healing that I never experienced before. I recommend anyone to experience his gifts as he offers such a calm space to heal and unwind. Do yourself a favor and experience the transformative experience of his healing.”

Background
Before becoming an Acupuncturist, I studied business and social science at SUNY Albany. After college, my father told me he was receiving acupuncture for insomnia. I knew nothing about acupuncture except what I saw in movies. After seeing his improvement, I became curious and enrolled in acupuncture school a year later.
After years of practicing, I accepted a position as a cruise ship acupuncturist, which allowed me to sail around the world, educate people on holistic medicine, and offer acupuncture services. It was a dream come true!
Several years ago, I was called to dive deeper into my path as a healer. I traveled to the Amazon jungle of Peru to partake in an ancient healing ritual using a plant medicine called Ayahuasca. Shamans have used this plant for centuries as a tool for self-healing and to raise human consciousness. I returned from that experience a different person with a new perspective on health and healing.

Dr. Lee has facilitated many powerful healings for me! I did not understand how connected the body is to our emotions until I started doing acupuncture with Lee. He finds the most powerful release points and holds space with his loving presence, and this has allowed me to release years of stored trauma and unexpressed emotions from my body. Lee is more than an acupuncturist, he is a magical being.
