What a treasure to be found in downtown Silver Spring. Healing Support's Kevin M. is a superb…read moreacupuncturist, thorough and caring, well -versed in this healing protocol. With just one session, I had relief from intense pain following a broken leg bone, ten weeks before, debilitating pain. Anyone with chronic pain should try acupuncture for its immediate and long lasting relief. Acupuncture technique works with the body, not against it, the healing can begin. You'll know for yourself with the first treatment. A newcomer to acupuncture will do well here. Kevin takes a full history, the answering of the questions is itself a healing process. Pain is there for a reason, your body is telling you something. As surely as it has gotten you into a knot, the knot can be undone. Methodically, acupuncture creates focus which allows for relaxation. The placement of the needles sends healing energy throughout the body, it's nothing short of incredible how well the body responds. Many times a person will cringe at the sound of the word needles. The needles are small, you'll barely feel it. The effect of the placement sends warm healing energy that un-knots the disturbance. The healing can begin. The location of Healing Support is excellent, a few walkable blocks from SS metro, it's down the street from Tastee Diner on Cameron, public parking lot, but there's usually something on the street. It's an elevator building, totally easy access. The cost is equivalent to what a doctors appointment would be. With luck, acupuncture is covered by your medical insurance, but if it's not, demand that they cover it. This is what we can do as consumers....bug the insurance companies to cover acupuncture which is far and away the better protocol for pain. As we increase our knowledge about acupuncture, we can demand change--acupuncture should be available to all. It's not yet covered by Medicare---change that. If Medicare covers drugs, surely Medicare should cover a helpful, harmless, effective treatment.

I also get a terrible upper respiratory cough every year for nine years, bam-gone! I so regret not knowing about this before because it has changed my life.

Doctor Kim is a miracle healthcare practitioner! For as long as I can remember, my neck,…read moreshoulders, lower back, and leg pains have been the sources of my restlessness nights and discomfort throughout my days. I have seen pain specialists, neurologists, chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists and had a few surgeries and to no avail. I have herniated discs in my C and L spines. About a week ago I started seeing Doctor Kim for he was my brother's treating doctor when I was back on the East Coast visiting and was looking for some relief. I could feel a difference after my initial visit with Dr. Kim. I had some cupping, adjustment, and acupuncture done by him. Due to my limited time during my visit back East, I could only fit in 3 sessions with him. My body felt so much better than I have ever felt in years with those 3 visits. I would highly recommend Dr. Kim to all my family and friends. I even suggest that you go to him for a Wellness check too. Thank you, Dr. Kim!

I have been using Douglas Kim for 10 years for all my pain needs. There is nothing he can't do when…read moreit comes to pain of the body. He took care of my L5 herniated disc and the sciatic nerve pain down my leg completely 10 years ago and I have never had a problem with it again. I had extreme pain in both of my shoulders for many months and he was able to correct the pain. Both of these services were viewed from two typical American trained doctors and theirs was to get an MRI, then months of physical therapy, and then surgery after that if this did not work. I started down that path with the back first, then I was referred to Douglas Kim as an alternative, and it worked Great. When the shoulder pain hit me later, I got the same advise, but did not bother to waste my time again, and went straight to Douglas Kim and had it corrected. He is a one stop shop for health needs, and its all natural too. Richard K. Bender Olney, Maryland.

When calling to make an initial consultation in December 2021, I specifically asked Lia whether…read moreHeritage Acupuncture accepted our insurance (Aetna). She confirmed that they did. At the end of the visit, they charged us the full $80, promising submit a claim to Aetna for reimbursement. In late January 2022, I called to check on the status of the claim. Lia told me that the $80 has gone towards our out-of-network deductible, so there would be no reimbursement. It turned out that Heritage is not in the Aetna network, so Lia had not been honest with me during our first phone call. We ended up spending $50 more than if we had gone to an in-network provider.

I never received acupuncture before, but am so glad I started coming. Since seeing Daisy, I've had a variation of acupuncture, cupping, and massage therapy to treat my various ailments. The treatments have helped reduce and remove the pain I was feeling in my neck and back. Daisy has also given me herbs to help treat some other health issues (cold, flu, hormonal imbalances) to treat the root cause of my issues as opposed to masking the issue. Daisy is great because she always discusses the cause of my pain, and how the treatment is supposed to impact it. Daisy also showed me some exercises to help strengthen certain muscles in my body to avoid putting so much stress on my back. Daisy's staff is also really nice, and the office is clean and organized. If you've had pain or injury in your body, I highly recommend giving this place a try.
