    Handmade 'purple cloud ointment' by Dr. Choi - using this for my baby's dry skin!
    Jin L.

    I started getting acupuncture recently again for my neck discomfort and I have had the best healing experience with Dr. Julie Choi! She offers variety of treatment services; the ones I've tried are acupuncture, cupping, gua she & k-cosmetic acupuncture. Dr. Choi is highly trained in acupuncture and herbal medicine - She reviewed the benefits of each treatment I've had and I felt instant relief on my neck tension post treatment. I also recommend her handmade healing balm - smells amazing! I'll be come back to Dr. Choi routinely for wellness visits!

    Whew what a relief! I've been having severe back pain recently (possibly due to moving boxes at home) and have been massaging myself to find relief. But the soreness and sharp pain wouldn't go away so I came here by a recommendation from a friend. And I'm so glad I did! Dr. Julie was very welcoming and made me feel comfortable the minute I came in for my appointment. After an initial consultation with various questions, blood pressure check and a pulse check(?) (she checked my pulse on my wrists - said that it was to check on my internal organs ) she set me up in the treatment room and did cupping on my back. WOW just wow!! I cant believe I did this earlier ‍ I gained back my mobility and the pain was nearly gone! She said I would have to come back to finish my treatment but the pain relief just from ONE treatment was amazing! The cupping did leave bruises on my back but she said it should go away in about a week My girlfriend also tried acupuncture while I was here as she had shoulder and some back pain as well! She said she also felt a LOT of relief so next time I'm going to get a acupuncture treatment as well! If you have back or shoulder pain I definitely recommend you give this place a try! I'm so glad that I did!!!

    Had shoulder neck pain for 2 weeks now. Got acupuncture, electric massage, and cup suction from Dr Julie. First time visiting here and I will definitely be returning more often. Price was more than fair as well. Thank you Dr Julie

    A sharp pain in my shoulder was bothering me for a while. Maybe I was going too hard on my workout. I got to visit here with a recommendation from my gym buddy. After consulting with Dr. Choi, she recommended acupuncture with electricity. It was an interesting feeling. It felt like a massage. She also did cupping on my shoulder and back. It was soooooo refreshing! I was feeling a lot better right away. It left some bruises on me especially where the muscle was tight, but she explained to me before so I wasn't really surprised. I am for sure coming back for that since it was not too far from my workplace (about 15min drive from Irvine). I definitely recommend it to people who exercise. Even after the first treatment, most of my pain was relieved and helped my shoulder mobility.

    If I can give more than 5 stars I would! Dr Shek is amazing!…read moreI initially went there because my 5 month old has had 2 utis and stomach flu since she's been born and has been on 2 courses of antibiotics. I was worried that her UTI would continue as her body isn't as strong to fight it. Although I can't speak on the UTI tx, we are currently working on recovering her gut health to hopefully prevent future UTIs. The Churchill Center is where she is located and as we entered Dr. Churchill greeted us and went out of his way to let Dr Shek know we were there! He asked us why we were there that day and as I told him he said I was in good hands and I felt genuine concern in wanting to help remedy our situation. During our consultation she was so thorough in asking her questions and working on better understanding our lifestyle. She was so patient and didn't miss a beat. She made her recommendation which I didn't hesitate to take. She not only recommend supplements for my daughter to take she even gave me a list of products to change such as diapers and wet wipes since so many on the market has harsh chemicals and can cause more irritation to her. I can't tell you enough how at ease I feel after speaking with her. I was doing my own research in finding ways to help my daughter because I really didn't want to give her more antibiotics if I didn't have to but to have someone understand and have the knowledge she has has been a weight lifted off my shoulders. I am beyond happy that I found her and plan to continue seeing her. As well as bringing my toddler in to see her as well. We just love Dr Shek!

The inflammation I experienced during my cycle started to become unbearable. My uterus became so sensitive to the touch that I would scream out in pain. I had to take a couple days off work each month - something I had never needed to do before. The bloating progressively worsened to the point where it was painful just to swallow a bite of food or even walk. I could hardly eat the first few days of my period! Unlike the doctors I had previously seen, Rebecca focused on identifying and addressing the root cause of my symptoms rather than masking them. In less than a year, my digestive issues quickly resolved, and my periods are now nearly pain-free - something I once thought was impossible! I'm excited to continue improving my health under her guidance, and I've already referred several friends and family members to her. I highly recommend Rebecca to anyone who wants to truly get to the root cause of their health concerns especially if they're dealing with inflammation, period issues, or fertility challenges! Thank you for all your guidance!

As time passed I forgot about coming here until this year 2022 I was looking for a chiropractor. I already had a referral to another chiropractor but when I reached out to her last month she was not taking in any new patients. So I started searching for a chiropractor in Yelp and that's when I saw Dr. Stewart's listing and I had his information saved on Yelp! This time I did not hesitate to reach out to him. I went to his website and filled out the Health Test to get a phone call consultation. He called me and we talked about my health issues and he gave me some advice. He was really nice and attentive. I made an appointment to come in to the office in 2 days! I am so grateful I got an appointment so quickly. When I came in for my appointment I really liked the chill vibes in the office and also the chill music. It made me feel more relaxed. The staff are super friendly and have a great sense of humor. Thank you for that! Dr. Stewart called me in and did his assessments. He did this muscle test and it was pretty cool!! I was already feeling better from my body aches!! At the end of the consultation he brought in the supplements and patches that I will need to heal my body. He also suggested other products that will help me, however he did not push for me to buy them. I will buy them next time though, since your girl was running a bit low on cash at the time. They understand your budget situation and will work with your budget, which is very awesome! He also gave me a list of what to eat and what not to eat. He is very thorough with his instructions. He makes sure you understand how the healthy diet plan works and if you have any questions he will answer/explain them. After our healthy diet plan discussion...I understood the assignment! ;) Thank you Dr. Stewart and staff. See you soon!

Though my cycle has always been irregular, for me, it was kind of an after thought. However, Masha noted that this was throwing off all my hormones, and that regulating it should be top priority. As part of her plan, she instructed me to eat specific seeds at different points throughout my cycle. I was skeptical that something so simple could work- but it did work! It's crazy that women's moon cycles can be regulated with something so simple as seeds! I can't believe this isn't common knowledge. One thing I really like about Dr. Masha as compared to other naturopathic doctors I have worked with is that she is careful to work within my budget. Her plan for regulating my cycle involved flax seeds and sesame seeds- something I could definitely afford. In the past, I have worked with naturopaths who convince me to spend hundred of dollars on specific tests, and then committee to a supplement regime that costs hundred of dollars every month. While Dr. Masha did recommend supplements, they are all ones that I could afford. She provided me guidance on brands, but did not insist that I buy the most expensive brand through her (as has been my past experience). Overall I am very pleased with my experience with Dr. Masha and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an alternative to the conventional pharmaceutical approach. She is very easy to talk to and I felt safe and comfortable throughout the whole session.

Eventually, 3 years ago, I was diagnosed with PCOS and was told I may need fertility treatment to conceive. I tried seeking help by my OBGYN, main health care doctors, and even seeking some fertility treatment, all to receive bandaid and cookie cutter "solutions" that didn't really help treat or find the cause of my issues. After being tired of not being heard and feeling not cared for I began doing a lot of research and discovered the holistic/naturopathic world and ultimately finding Dr. Nirvana. I began seeing Dr. Nirvana July of 2024 and to this day I have not only felt the most heard and understood, but have truly been seeing results and feeling so much better. She doesn't give bandaid or cookie cutter solutions, she actually cares and works to find the root cause of your issue through detailed labs and tests. She is the sweetest and is extremely knowledgeable. In just 8 months I have improved by gut health tremendously (night and day), I have lost over 25 lbs and don't feel as much inflammation as before, I have been able to balance my insulin and lower my bad cholesterol, and with her help I've been able to start regulating several of my hormones which we discovered I had severely unbalanced due to my PCOS which have caused my irregular cycles and infertility issues. She was carful in customizing a plan just for my needs. She is also very mindful of doing things progressively to not shock your body and feel good while going through healing. While Naturopathic care is not covered by many insurances and it can get rather expensive, it is truly so WORTH IT to actually see true results and find and fix the core problem. I am very satisfied with the progress I have seen and experienced and look forward to what is ahead as I continue treatment with Dr. Nirvana.
