“I was recently feeling easily irritated, so I tried acupuncture with Michael. He told me that I had too much stress on my current situation, and it has a bad effect on my stomach. So he pointed needles on some specific points to relieve my digestion and some organs to make a good energy flow. The treatment was surprisingly relaxing, and I felt more at ease afterward.

“I was dealing with PMS and decided to try acupuncture with Michael. He pointed out it as a hormone imbalance. The treatment was surprisingly relaxing, and I felt calmer afterward. After a few sessions, I don'r feel stomache/headache/feel like sick any more! (Sometimes I feel it but not like last time). I had less cramping and mood swings. He is awesome!

I was lucky that I could found him. I've been taking many acupuncturist in nyc, but he is different from any other acupuncturists. He used Japanese style needles which were not too thin, not too thick. And whenever he put needles on my body, he explained me everything. The session was 1hour but since he didn't have an appointment after me, he treated me more than an hour. Can't go other place

I was dealing with painful Achilles tendon since I do dance every day. I used to take Chiropractic, but it didn't work. So I tried Michael's session which my friend recommended me. He checked my tongue color and pulse, and after few sessions, the painful part improved a lot!

So much better than chiropractic! I took Chiro session for a year but I still had lower back pain. Once I took Michael's session, I was like, why I didn't take his session over Chiro. It changed my body and emotion!

He did acupuncture and moxa for me. Advised me what to eat for my skin problem. Many acupuncturist are expensive in nyc, but his session isn't expensive (even though he is knowledgeable and high level acupuncturist)

I took his session few days before my job interview because I felt super neuvous and need to let my body relax. I told him everthing about my story, and then he put some thin Japanese needles on specific point. I really appreciate him making me comfortable every time and always have warm welcome.

I'm so lucky that I found him. I tried many acupuncture since I came to nyc, but his session is lituraly different from any other acupuncure. Best part, he knows what he did, and explain everything about my body.

I didn't know that cupping helps improve respiratory health. Michael taught me that it opens up the chest and lungs and making it easier to breathe. I'm the person who isn't good at breathing correctly (maybe because of my posture or anxiety?) but his session helped me a lot

I have never had acupuncture before, but Dr. Michael is very perceptive of my current condition and was able to pin point areas of my concerns. He’s also a great listener and is very gentle during treatment. I feel less stressed and overall anxious even from just one session. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Michael!

Each session I get acupuncture done and amazing afterwards. He really knows his stuff, listen to areas I want to fucus on and make sure those areas are worked on.

My experience with Michael was fantastic. I had knee injury, and I did x-ray, MPI, and chiropractic but I could not find what is cause. Michael touched my knee and put the needles on my hand. After an hour I did not feel pain on my knee at all. Incredible!

My face was very itchy, and I took allergy test, put steroid, and take a medicine, but nothing gets well. When I see Michael, he asked me some questions and put needles on my body. After a week, my face is no longer itchy! I didn't know that acupuncture helps such a lot!

I have never tried acupuncture, and that's why I was so excited to take his treatment. When I look at mirror after treatment, my face looks so different. I don't know how to explain but looks so positive. Will back soon

I was so lucky that I could take his session. I took his session twice, and now I could see the things positive. Maybe because he made me very relax and balanced my hormone. Since I moved to nyc, I constantly work a lot, so here's my best relaxing place

I tried his treatment because of my shoulder stiffness, but Dr. Michael pointed out my stomach has a lot of anxiety and stress, and that’s why I have shoulder pain. Good to know what is wrong with my body
