    What a gem! Hidden away in San Pedro, Dr. James Ko specializes in pain management (muscle pain be gone for good in 3 treatments). His other services include easing stomach problems, helping grow hair (baldies need to go here), assisting with weight loss (better than Jenny Craig), and easing hot flashes (ooooh thank goodness I'm not there yet). He's a great guy with good bedside manner. I can feel the zen vibes floating my way. Visiting him is like getting a free lesson in Eastern philosophy... enlightenment here I come (great for anxiety management -- stress case, me?). Tao of Ko. He's personally helped me with skin care and nausea. Success! Alternative medicine can seem like a risk, but he eases your nerves and really proves that western science isn't the be all and end all of medicine.

    This is me after treatment @ Dr. Ko. Drinking lots of water, relaxing with my dog, just taking it easy. No pain whatsoever!

    I can't say enough about Dr. Ko's acupuncture treatments. I have a bad back and it can be very painful and flares up. I called Dr. Ko who gets me in almost immediately for treatment. I do 3 rounds of acupuncture on my back and I just feel wonderful after the treatments. He does such a good job I don't have to see Dr. Ko within a 6 months to 1 year.period! Is office is very clean and pleasant and he takes pride in his eastern medicinal healings. He accepts ILWU insurance and other insurances of course as well as cash. DR. Ko also promotes healthy eating, wellness treatments, herbs treatments,massages etc. GOT PAIN SEE DR. KO!!!!!

    Very, very happy girl!!!

    I was searching for an acupuncturist around my home, so I was driving around because I had tendonitis in my elbow bad. I yelped acupuncture and found 3 around my house. I wanted a "real" acupuncturist so I decided to call Dr. Ko. I thought that there was no way I was getting in that day. He picked up the phone and said to come on over. He was A-mazing!!! His knowledge and expertise goes beyond what any other person has ever had that I have gone to. My tendonitis is almost gone...It was a bad case. I have all kinds of other issues. He has worked on my knee and even a tooth that was aching!!! They also have a masseuse that is amazing also!!! I give Ko's Wellness 5 BIG stars!!! Thank you Dr. Ko!!! Arlene M.

    My spouse and I have been receiving acupuncture treatment at Tzu Chi Health Center since 2024, and…read morewe are incredibly grateful for the care we've received from Dr. Lin, Dr. Steven, and the entire staff. From the very beginning, the environment has been calm, welcoming, and deeply compassionate. Both doctors are highly skilled, attentive, and take the time to truly listen--treating the whole person, not just symptoms. I've personally sought treatment for women's health and chronic pain, and the improvement I've experienced has been meaningful and consistent. The treatments feel thoughtful, personalized, and grounded in genuine expertise. The staff deserves special recognition as well--everyone is kind, professional, and supportive, which makes each visit feel comfortable and reassuring. It's clear that patient well-being is at the heart of what they do. Tzu Chi Health Center has become an important part of our ongoing health and wellness journey. We wholeheartedly recommend their acupuncture services to anyone seeking compassionate, high-quality, holistic care.

    From the outside, the place appears small, but once inside, it's quite spacious. The atmosphere is…read morecalm and quite inviting. There is a snack room to the left of the front desk too! Of course I didn't come for the snacks, but that's a bonus. I was in need of some relief via acupuncture and my acupuncturist's office was located inside this facility. His office is not too bright and not too dim. It had a calming effect to it and it did smell nice. Dr. Cheung is probably one of the best acupuncturist! He has a great personality that made me calm and at ease. I've been to some other acupuncturist where their personalities were a bit "stiff", which kind of made me uncomfortable and a bit unable to relax. (Which the whole point of getting acupuncture is to get relief while at ease!) Dr. Cheung was the complete opposite. He was approachable and knew how to put a patient at ease. If you have never had acupuncture before and is fearful of the needles, he is the one to come to. I came for relief of my neck that has been causing some stiffness which led to some nausea and headaches. Dr. Cheung took his time to evaluate me and to locate the correct spots to treat. I must say, he does have a gentle hand and is genuinely dedicated to help. The needles did not really hurt that much, it felt like a small poke. After a while, they felt soothing and you don't really feel them while relaxing. For me, I could actually feel the sense of relief in the spots that the needles were placed. Kind of like a wave of warmth over those spots. My favorite part is the little pressure point stickers that were placed in my ears. Sounds weird, but it surprisingly helped with my headaches. Overall, I would recommend coming to Dr. Cheung to get acupuncture. If you're someone who has never gotten it done before and is hesitant on it due to dear of the needles, he is the one to go to! He can have some corny jokes at times to lighten the mood and you would forget about your fears. I'll be returning to get more sessions to relieve my stresses.

    it is so hard to find a good acupuncturist... there are so many ones out there with said knowledge…read moreor experiences, but after a while with so much money spent, it just doesn't work... I am REALLY happy that I stumble upon this place, I think this will be my go-to place from now on - although it is a little out of my way... I will try to make it work! I have a desk job that I sit in front of a computer, typing all day... my shoulder and back are always tight and tense. Besides acupuncture, John also did cupping - which was a first for me and a little intimidating but Woah, did it help!!! I say the combination of both released the pain in my shoulder and back... I definitely felt rejuvenated afterward! my only wish is I can afford to come here every two weeks... it is about $125/session/an hour. I think he also does cosmetic acupuncture? maybe I'd try that next time... heated bed, heated blanket, relaxing spa music, dim lights, fancy aroma oil diffuser...it was really a five-star place AND service! thanks John! this place is inside Divante, it's really clean, the decor was really nice as well. plenty of public parking in the plaza. Definitely recommend - give it a try if you are around the area!

The front desk staff is always friendly, professional, and organized, making scheduling and check-ins quick and stress-free. The office itself is spotless, relaxing, and has such a positive atmosphere that you immediately feel comfortable. What truly stood out to me was how much time Dr. Sam Vazin took to listen and understand what I was experiencing instead of rushing through the appointment. They explained everything clearly, answered all of my questions patiently, and created a treatment plan that felt personalized to my specific needs and goals. I appreciated how thorough and knowledgeable they were throughout the entire process. Before coming here, I was dealing with constant pain, stiffness, tension, and discomfort that was affecting my daily life, sleep, work, and overall mood. After starting treatment, I began noticing improvements much sooner than I expected. My mobility improved, my pain decreased significantly, and I finally started feeling relief that I hadn't been able to find elsewhere. Every adjustment has been gentle, effective, and tailored to what my body needed that day. What I also love is that they focus on long-term wellness and education, not just quick fixes. They genuinely care about helping patients heal, improve posture and movement, and maintain a healthier lifestyle overall. You can tell they are passionate about what they do and truly want the best for every patient who walks through the door. Every visit has been a positive experience, and I always leave feeling better physically and mentally. It's hard to find healthcare providers who combine professionalism, skill, compassion, and consistency the way this office does. I'm incredibly grateful to have found them and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone dealing with pain, tension, injuries, or simply looking to improve their overall health and quality of life. Thank you to the entire team for the amazing care and dedication. You have made such a huge difference for me!
