I cannot recommend this place enough! I've been struggling with chronic shoulder and back pain, indigestion, and severe menstrual cramps for a long time. After receiving acupuncture treatments and taking the liquid herb. I've seen an incredible improvement in all my symptoms. The practitioner is incredibly gentle and meticulous, making sure I felt comfortable throughout every session. If you're looking for professional and effective care, this is the place to go! read more

And Dr Jung also had me do some physical therapy that he recommended and had me do the 3 times a day! I have no more pain and doing the PT is keeping it away and making work and life Pain Free! Thank You Dr Jung! Tom G read more

Have shoulder pains that just wouldn't go away. Decided to give acupuncture with Jung a try. I was skeptical but after 2 months of Jung's skill, professionalism and care I'm on the mend. No longer skeptical and recommend Jung to fam n friends. No issues either insurance experienced. read more

This was my first experience with Acupuncture and I was very impressed and pleased with the outcome. Dr. Jung does an excellent job and after just one session, my lower back and hip issues were pain free. I returned for several follow up sessions and feel great. Can't recommend Dr. Jung highly enough, he takes the time to understand what's going on with his patients and treats accordingly. read more

I went to see Dr.Jung starting about a month ago for my serious digestive issues. He understood and besides the acupuncture he also went over the many foods, nuts, berry, etc. And I and feeling better everyday knowing what foods to avoid. Mostly found out I have a gluten sensitivity I never knew of. I would highly recommend him! read more

Waste of time. I asked them to run my insurance which they would not do. So I set up an appointment. When I showed up I was told instantly that they don't take my insurance and that I can pay out of pocket. When I asked why they didn't just run my insurance via email I was told "people take advantage" what does that even mean? Lol. As a busy mom I really don't respect their admission or intake process. Felt very deceptive and disappointing. No thanks! read more

I've been going to Dr. Jung for several years now. Most recently, he helped to unlock my frozen shoulder. He's always been caring, helpful and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Jung. read more

Jung Acupuncture Center I can't say enough!!! He is a healer, He cares, he understands pain. I had been approved for 20 visits to a acupuncture center. I picked Dr Jung.. My knee and Buttocks needed immediate attention the pain was overwhelming. I tried Doctors, I tried pills, I tried screaming at the top of my lungs.. Actually, nothing helped.. I clearly was in so much pain I could not take it any longer.. My last resort was to an acupuncturist. Well, it should've been my first place!!! I cannot tell you how much better I feel, I truly feel 1000 times better. I truly believe he has healing powers and that he is one super awesome amazing Doctor.. If you're ever in pain Serious pain look no further. I really highly recommend this acupuncture center. Make a Appointment you will be very happy you did!!! read more

Dr. Jung is great! I have been under the weather with cold / flu symptoms and pain from coughing etc.. He took the time to understand my condition and went right to work. I have seen him twice and each time walk out feeling so much better. I highly recommend him and the services he provides. He will now be my go to! read more

A truly talented TCM practitioner - very effective Accupunture treatments for me. Highly recommend

Lengthy, but worth the read. If I could give him zero stars I would! Do not go to this doctor! He is shady, shady, shady! I have been going to New Hope Acupuncture for years and have always had great results with them. I recently was suffering from vertigo and tried to get an appointment with them but due to the Thanksgiving holiday they were closed. I was desperate for help and went to Jung's. I could barely drive and chose him due to the high rating on yelp and close proximity. When I arrived I told him I had made sure my insurance covered it so to check with them before service. He said it wouldn't be in the system yet, so the charge would be $120.00. I should have had a ZERO co-pay, but he didn't even bother to call. I was so sick I agreed to pay him. He performed the service and I left, but not before he tried to get me to make another appt. I said I'd get back to him. Unfortunately, the service didn't help at all and I had to let it take it's course. After I got home I called my insurance and they said I could be reimbursed, but needed a detailed invoice of the services. I called Jung and his response was, "Well, that's going to require paperwork". Okay, so???? Another red flag! "I'm busy right now so I'll send it via email when I have a chance". He did email me the invoice, which by the way he should have handed to me when I left the office along with the receipt. The next day he phoned me to tell me he was going to only charge me $41.00 and would credit me the rest. Again, I told him I shouldn't have to pay him anything. I asked him if he had received phone calls from the insurance company and he said he had, but only listened to their messages. So, at this point I told him he doesn't need to credit me because I've already sent the paperwork in and was going to be reimbursed the entire amount. He proceeded to tell me he didn't want to argue with me and would credit me the entire amount. After he the credit hit my bank, I called the insurance company to let them know they didn't need to send me anything. I explained the negotiation phone call, his lack of professionalism, and vagueness about his services. At this point they are going to be following up with this. He doesn't care about his clients. Only the bottom line which is money. Red Flags all over the place! Avoid, avoid, avoid! Hopefully this review will help others not be taken advantage of! read more

I recently went to see Jung's Acupuncture for what I thought was for my sciatica. however it turned out to be my hip was causing the pain. Since then I have been going for treatment on my hip which has improved greatly. I would recommend Jung's Acupuncture if you are considering a treatment for any pain issues. read more

Dr Jung is so professional and has a very calming demeanor about him. You feel comfortable from the first hello. I went to see him with terrible knee pain and after just one visit the pain is completely gone. It's unbelievable but true. I've had acupuncture before with good results but not this quickly. I'm really amazed and I'so happy I found this wonderful man. And my insurance was excepted as well. Couldn't be happier. read more

Absolute scammers. They placed a total of 12 needles in me in random places that he didn't explain. He forced me to buy some very sketchy "herbs"...tried to make me spend over $900 for the herbs. Refused to buy the herbs and still ended up spending over $450 for a cheap crappy job. Felt worse after leaving there than before I came in. I'm going to contact my bank, they are frauds. Do not go here. read more

I've been going to Dr Jung for acupuncture for a few weeks now and all I can say is that he's as gentle as can be. After all, our body is what reacts. The moment I step into his office, I feel comfortable and instant relaxation. Also, after following his recommendations I feel a better sense of well being and my physical symptoms decrease by the week. After leaving his office each time, I feel as if I've had a massage. I walk out feeling relaxed and have less tension. read more

I started acupuncture a month ago, as recommended by my neurologist for treatment of neuropathy. I've had five sessions with Dr. Jung now, and my results have been excellent. Because of my neuropathy, I have been unable to get quality sleep. With just the first acupuncture treatment, I felt more relaxed and I slept like a baby that night. I'm surprised how much acupuncture calms me as well. Finding a peaceful place where I feel comfortable with an acupuncturist who is skilled is very important to me. Dr. Jung is a great listener and is very knowledgeable and caring. This is a convenient location with a clean, comfortable and friendly atmosphere. Very grateful to have found Jung's Acupuncture Center. read more

I went to Dr. Jung for labor inducing acupuncture as my OB was beginning to talk about medically inducing me. I wanted a natural birth so wanted to try the more holistic approach first. Well I'm sure happy I did because I had my first session at 10am on Wednesday Dec. 26th and at 3am on Dec. 27th, I went into labor. I had a 12hr natural labor, and gave birth to a healthy 9lbs, 21 inches baby boy. I can't thank Dr. Jung enough as he helped aid me in having the beautiful natural birth I had hoped and prepared for. read more

Misoon is very kind and professional. She used all her knowledge and intuition to help heal many health issues. I will continue to go have her treat me for what ever needs I have. She is amazing read more

I was leery of acupuncture, and decided to give it a try. I choose Dr. Jung due to his many excellent reviews. I was not disappointed! Dr. Jung shared his knowledge and explained not just what he was doing, but why. He was able to relieve me of my discomfort and I am happy I decided to visit him. read more

Jung's Acupuncture is exactly what I needed! Dr. Jung is kind and his gentle personality is very welcoming. He spent time hearing me out over my reoccurring spinal pain & then got right to work. He knew exactly where to place the needles and the relief was pretty much instant. I walked out of his office feeling very relaxed and knew I wanted to keep coming back. His office is nice and clean and right in the heart of San Clemente with lots of parking in the unground parking structure. He also offers cupping which I highly enjoy too. If you're looking for an acupuncturist I highly recommend Dr. Jung. read more

I only recently discovered acupuncture to try and resolve/lesson severe chronic migraines that were sending me to the ER several times a week. Dr. Jung got me in almost immediately. He is very calm and professional. His office is very welcoming and relaxing. He feels strongly that he can help, so I am trusting the process and hopeful, as I haven't had a severe headache in over a week. read more

My family and I were visiting San Clemente for a month and one of the first things I did was look for an acupuncturist. Dr. Luke was amazing and his unique approach was amazing. Wish I could take him back East with me. My wife, who has never done accupuncture, also visited for some back and leg problems and is now a "believer". I would recommend Chin's to anyone who asked read more

I have only been here once so far and I will try to update this review with the results of my long-term treatment. I just wanted to say that if you are having doubts (like I was) because of that one (long) bad review, there's no need to worry. Jung is extremely professional and listened to everything I had to say. During the evaluation, he made sure not to strain my shoulder too much (which many doctors don't do, I'm constantly having to go home after doctor appointments and take a painkiller due to the doctor's rough evals). Within 30 minutes of talking and evaluation, Jung had a 30-day plan ready to go. I can't speak to the legitimacy of acupuncture's effects (yet), this review is just letting people know that the doc is very professional and courteous. Once the month is over, I will update this review with the results (if I remember to...) read more

I'm adding this business to yelp.com, as I'm a patient of Dr. Luke @ Chin's Acupuncture, and I was surprised he/the clinic wasn't on yelp. Dr. Luke took over Chin's Acupuncture from the "original" Dr. Chin about a year ago; I assume Dr. Luke kept the name so people would be familiar with this business. In the months I've been going to Dr. Luke, I've been continually impressed with his ability to heal not only my ailments (digestive & stress issues), but also those of 3 other family members that referred me to Dr. Luke. I've had acupuncture at other offices for about 7 years, and out of the 4 acupuncturist Dr.s I've seen in that time, Dr. Luke is by far the best. His knowledge of the body and needle placement is so impressive, it's spooky. He was able to help with my issues in about 5 visits vs. over 30+ with another Dr. in OC. His office also has a staff acupressure massage therapist, and I look forward to such a specific, healing massage after my session with Dr. Luke. Even without seeing Dr. Luke, I'd love to come in for a massage alone. This isn't the least expensive clinic by far, but he takes PPOs. Even for a cash patient like me, it's worth the extra money to Dr. Luke for a few visits vs. a less experienced Dr. for more visits. read more

Dr Jung is a very caring and detailed person. I have had vericous veins for 10 years and my ankle began to swell. He does a through exam every time has prescribed some herbs and I have had fabulous results. I am so glad that I did not have surgery, and met Dr Jung. He also provided treatment to my wife's neck and she also was healed. Awesome, caring, high integrity are a few words I use to describe Dr Jung. read more

Dr. Jung has helped me immensely with all of my issues. Allergy relief, detox, shoulder pain, neck stress, tension, acupressure for the legs and feet for circulation and so much more. He truly is a master at his craft and I am so thankful to have him in my town. read more

WARNING: Long Review ~ AVOID AT ALL COST! This doctor is shady! He Charged my medical insurance way more than the services I rendered. Not to mention, he was extremely vague when I asked him questions and even seemed frazzled and annoyed. He wasn't able to answer anything clearly, like basic costs of services, prices per sessions, with insurance and w/out insurance. He wanted to sell me on some "herbs" but couldn't tell me the ingredients or where they were from. It was all a weird start. Should've gone with my gut feeling and never returned after the first bad experience! Although, he was quick to answer that paying with insurance is better.... now I know why! So, My first visit/experience here was pretty strange but that's normal for something you've never done before, let alone something with that includes needles! After our brief consultation with no straight-forward answers to any of my questions. He proceeded with a trial of 8 needles on my body as an introductory session which lasted 30 minutes. Oddly, he charged my Insurance over $350 not including my co-pay with him. Which I found out two weeks later! During my first visit, He told me next time wear shorts so he can do the acupuncture on my knees. A couple days later I was back for my second treatment and brought my boyfriend that was interested in acupuncture himself. We went into his "consultation room" and again the doctor vague with prices and instead of answering changed the subject and asked what's your medical insurance? He even seemed intimated with my boyfriends questions and randomly asked what was my boyfriends occupation. Which was out of context, as we were talking about his services. After a roundabout and no clear answers, the so called dr. again changed the subject and directed his attention to me and said, that I needed to come 3 times a week for a month as well as take herbs. My boyfriend then asked about the herbs and he could not answer any of my basic questions such has, where they came from? Are they safe? Any side effects? How to consume them (tea, food, etc) not even prices for them but did mention insurance didn't cover. I was shocked how little he knew or wanted to tell me about these herbs he was desperately pushing. I brushed it off, since I wasn't interested in the herbs anyways. So boyfriend left, and I carried on with my appointment. This time he charged over $500 for about the same needles. First we did the front side, he left. When he returned over 30 minutes later, I said "Isn't the heating lamp supposed to be on" and he said "okay yeah" and turned it on. (talk about NO attention to detail, only reason why I said something is because it was on during my first visit). Then, I flipped over, He applied a couple needles on my hands and three on my neck. One on my neck, which was painful the entire time! When he came back, I said "hey my neck really hurts and he said that's why the door is open", so I can let him know... Am I supposed to know that it MIGHT hurt?.... Like I said this is my First acupuncture experience nor did he ever mention "if you're ever uncomfortable speak up". Not to mention, he didn't touch my knees but said he couldn't apply the needles on my stomach because of my dress! It seemed like there is always something he couldn't do. whether my knees or stomach. Ugh make up your mind! Annoyingly, I tried to coordinate what to wear for this apt. If he is going to be so picky, perhaps have something for your patients to wear! Oh well, long story short this was not the problem. The problem is the lack of professionalism, no communication as to what he is "trying "to up-sell (herbs) and overcharges medical insurances for services that should be a quarter of the price. I'm shocked! DO NOT GO HERE! He will use every little mark you put on their 4 page application to use as a reason you to come more frequently or upselling you something he doesn't even know about or possibly just doesn't want to tell his "clients". Overall, he is not genuine, sincere or professional. My neck hurt even after my apt! Seriously, bummed about the service I received because I work just down the street and will NEVER come back! Also, given my review is the ONLY bad one I couldn't believe it, even told my boyfriend how strange this is! read more

I have to say...Dr. Luke is very good at what he does! He is knowledgeable, insightful, and sets a very warm relaxing tone during the visit. He takes time to talk to his patients in depth to resolve the issues that they may have. I started going to Chin's a whole year ago for a certain set of symptoms and concerns. In the time that i saw him, I felt so much relief of the negative physical ailments that I had. It has been truly amazing! I recently had some acute neck pain from a minor injury so I went to Dr. Luke for that... Just after 1 visit, the pressure and tension has been minimized incredibly. I am so amazed at how acupuncture can treat such a wide variety of ailments. I would suggest that everyone tries acupuncture first before Western Medicine. And Dr. Luke is just your man! I recommend him highly!!! read more

Dr. Luke is a great doctor. I am coming for my wrist pain. I broke my wrist when I was younger and the bones didn't heal properly. On top of that my ligaments are stretchier than they should and the only remedy for that is a very painful surgery that shortens the ligaments, but with the years the ligaments will stretch out again so it is a pointless surgery. Acupuncture is helping my wrist movement pains, and helping me function and it is great because now I don't need to get the surgery! Not painful! And very relaxing environment! read more

The office is welcoming and calming. I was able to see the doctor within a couple days of my initial phone call and have been seeing Dr Jung twice weekly for a couple of months. Dr Jung is a skillful doctor with a great attitude and confidence to help with pain. I went to Dr Jung for arthritic pain and neuropathy in my hands. My joints were pained and I was not sleeping at night due to the constant "buzzing" in my hands. At the initial consultation, he asked questions about my medical history, my currents aches and pains and thoroughly examined my hands and arms. He uses acupuncture, gua sha. mild electrical stimuIation, heat therapy and works with me exercising my hands and arms. I feel confident that Dr Jung has the experience and training to help alleviate my pain and discomfort. I recommend Dr Jung for acupuncture and his other healing services. read more

Dr. Jung is amazing! I've had multiple trigger points from sports injuries and Dr. Jung methodically found and relieved all of them in a very efficient and professional manner. I highly recommend Dr. Jung for pain relief and he is my first call for acupuncture medicine. read more

I highly recommend dr Luke. He's helped me out so much. My digestion has greatly improved since his treatments, which I've struggled with for many years. I also have had great relief with night sweats that have popped up lately due to stress. After one treatment my night sweats were gone. Continued treatments help keep them away. I do not like conventional medicine so I'm really happy I found dr Luke! He is very caring and wants to help you, and is very intuitive about what's going on in your body. read more

Dr. Jung has helped me deal with a a mid/lower back and hip issue over the past 2 months. My pain level has gone from an 8 to a 1. It has helped me regain an active life style. read more

Dr. Jung is courteous, knowledgeable and sincere about helping his patients. I went in as a curious skeptic but am now convinced. The treatments have given me relief from sciatica after two years of pain and countless other forms of treatment. His approach is holistic and I must admit that as he brings me more into balance I feel a general sense of well-being. I have lost weight, lost bloating and edema, and most of all lost the persistent pain that was making me miserable for so long. I no longer need pain killers to get through the day! I would urge anyone to give Dr. Jung and his acupuncture and herbs a try. You will only feel better for it! read more

For years, I've dealt with sinus infections brought on by allergies. Recently, I had another sinus infection, was treated with two different antibiotics and it still didn't clear it. I decided to try acupuncture. Dr. Luke Jung kindly and thoroughly accessed my problem. He explained how he could help me by reducing inflammation and treating imbalances in my body. With acupuncture, my sinus infection is gone and I'm no longer waking up with sinus headaches in the morning. I feel better and more energetic than I have in years. With great appreciation, I highly recommend Dr. Jung. read more

Very good experience. They provide a holistic approach to their treatment and the results prove. I was very happy with them.

This is my first time writing in Yelp. I was encouraged to leave a comment just because the noticeable results i have just felt that made me eager to spread the news. I have been visiting the center for almost 6 months. First of all i had a comprehensive examination where the Dr explained clearly what i need and what program tends to be suitable for me. I started with some hesitation if this really works. I used to have back pain that turned out to be caused by the kedny that was functioning inappropriately. Now i am writing this comment while the pain has vanished and I'm healthier. the center's special herbs are highly recommended. They boost the healing process. read more

I've been going to Dr. Luke for 6 months now and I'm so pleased with all he's done for me. I was having pain and inflammation in my hands due to arthritis. Not only did he educate me about my body and WHY the arthritis was affecting me, he also has almost completely gotten rid of my symptoms. I saw another acupuncturist previous to Dr. Luke and was worked on for 20 minutes (the same treatment every visit) and sent on my way. Dr Luke's approach is completely different. He thoughtfully and carefully assesses my symptoms at the start of every visit and then works to treat them. His sessions are 1 hour long and are COMPLETELY worth it as his approach is different every visit. He is honest, fair and gets results that the western medical community will tell you don't exist!!!!! BTW- his massage therapist (Tracy) is AMAZINGLY intuitive and she can find areas that need treatment without me even prompting her. She is extremely talented, and a perfect compliment to the work Dr. Luke does. read more

I have been to 3 other acupuncturists & was not satisfied when I was highly recommended to try Chins Acupunture in year 2005 & have been going 2 to 3 times a week ever since. I truly believe they have kept me out of a wheel chair as I have a mild case of MS. I have to use a walker now but better than a wheel chair. They do so much more than the others did. They include extras and a lot of knowledge & a feeling of really caring about you. Worth giving them a try. Peggy Dunkel read more
