Testimonial – “Soo-Mi’s unwavering commitment to healing inspires and strengthens my journey to wholeness”
Soo-Mi’s capacity to dialogue with sensations or feelings that arise during treatment gives her acupuncture practice a uniquely somatic approach. This gift of presence and focus on the mind-body connection during sessions has enhanced my own awareness of internal landscapes. But more than that, it has empowered my own internal guidance and authority. I feel very fortunate to have found Soo-Mi, who’s unwavering commitment to healing inspires and strengthens my journey to wholeness. – S. Solomon
Testimonial – “Soo-Mi is a true healer”
Saying Soo-Mi transformed my life would be an understatement. When I first saw her almost three years ago now, my health was on the decline and spiritually I was being held back by the weight of the grief I was carrying following the passing of my mother. The heaviness of the depression and hopelessness had strangled any lightness or hope, which manifested itself in unhealthy eating habits, joint pain, and severe gastrointestinal issues, on top of anxiety and fatigue. I hadn’t even been in Soo-Mi’s office for more than five minutes when she told me my heart was heavy from grief—she could feel it. In my first session we focused on reopening my heart and addressing my gastro issues, when I left I felt like one of the weights on my heart had been lifted. Soo-Mi did in 90 minutes what years of traditional therapy had been unable to—reconnect my mind and body. I wish there was an option to give a ten-star review, because five-stars are just not enough. During my time seeing Soo-Mi, not only has my physical health improved, but also my mental and spiritual well-being. A lightness and joy was brought back into my life and she provided the space and the empathy to process the grief I was running from. She is a true healer and I’m so grateful for the care she provides. – Matty S.
Testimonial – “Soo-Mi’s acupuncture facials are transformative!”
Soo-Mi’s acupuncture facials are transformative! Her talent, intuition, and ability to tune into your body’s needs and stresses, physically and energetically, is therapeutic in ways that no other acupuncturist I have seen previously has come close to. To call what she does a “facial” is too limiting; it is simply and profoundly “healing”. She is a true healer. – S.K.
Testimonial – “Soo-Mi is there to help me physically and emotionally”
Soo-Mi has been consistently treating me for about 5 months. Initially, I met her when my life had gone through a dramatic change. My body ached consistently, I had severe lower back and leg pains, and I suffered from headaches that felt like migraines. I had no posture; my energy was on the floor and my life was a mess. Soo-Mi, with her sensitivity and generosity, helped me work through all of these issues, step by step until today. She takes time and effort to listen to me every session and lets me exhale all of my concerns and worries. She carefully treats my body where needed and creates a trustworthy and comfortable environment. She pays close attention to pressure points and handles my body gently. I am now a completely different person than when I first met her. I have much energy and feel great! Of course I have moments when I am down, however, that’s when Soo-Mi is there to help me physically and emotionally. Without a doubt, Soo-Mi has a deep connection with each and every client, which makes every treatment that much more significant. – Karen G.
Testimonial – “Soo-Mi is a very gifted healer and is blessed with a sharp intuition and a compassionate nature”
I worked with Soo-Mi for a number of years and have always respected her knowledge, insight, and intuition. Our mutual patients would share about the wonderful healing experiences they had when going to Soo-Mi for acupuncture, both as a result of her skill and of her compassionate listening and processing of the emotional issues related to the physical issues they were experiencing. This past summer, I sprained a tendon in my ankle. Initially I went to the local urgent care office and was diagnosed and prescribed large doses of ibuprofen and told to wear a bandage to support the ankle. Neither seemed to help very much and I just kept re-injuring it. Even before Soo-Mi began formally treating me she noted that the bandage was restricting the circulation and thereby interfering with the healing. She suggested alternative ways of supporting the ankle which were much more effective. Healing began with the first acupuncture session. She helped to clear the stagnant blood and inflammation, and with each visit there was significant improvement and reduction in pain. Within a few weeks I was walking normally again. It had also been a period of transition for me, and the sessions were very helpful in clearing some of the emotional stagnation and anxiety that I had been experiencing at the time. I always left her office feeling much lighter, calmer, and supported. She is a very gifted healer and is blessed with a sharp intuition and a compassionate nature. – S.M.
Testimonial – “Soo-Mi has changed my life”
I have been a patient of Soo-Mi’s for a year now. Having suffered from joint pain for most of my life, I began feeling very discouraged that my last resort would have to be surgery. I met Soo-Mi and felt instantly drawn and comforted by her healing energy. Soo-Mi has such a strong intuition with others’ well-being, and my pain has dramatically decreased in this time. Surgery does not even enter my mind! I can, without a doubt, state that Soo-Mi has changed my life and my view about a holistic approach to health. – Erin D.
Testimonial – “Soo-Mi is a true healer who really cares about her patients”
For work, I spend most of my days at the computer. Over time, I began to feel pain in the arm that I click my mouse with (my dominant arm). As the pain grew more and more severe, I knew I had to do something. I heard about acupuncture from friends and made an appointment to see Soo-Mi. As soon as I met her, I felt at ease—it was clear that she is a true healer who really cares about her patients and their well-being. After an examination, Soo-Mi told me the issue was more widespread—not just in my arm. After just a few treatments, the pain decreased noticeably. Weeks later, I’m very happy to report that the pain has gone and I’m finally able to work and exercise the way I used to. I’m so happy that I found Soo-Mi! – Stephen T.
Testimonial – “I am blessed to have Soo-Mi as my healer”
When I was first introduced to Soo-Mi, I was full of pain and very afraid of needles. No more! She not only addressed the knee pain that brought me in, she also noted signs of stress and general lack of well-being. In the time that I have been under her care, my knee is much better, my general well-being has improved, and the tension knots have subsided. I also need to address her manner with clients as that is a great part of her care. Obviously, she is skilled in acupuncture and massage therapies, but it is her friendly manner and her belief in treating “the whole person” that effectively raises her to a higher level than those just treating a pain. I am blessed to have her as my healer and I cannot recommend her enough. – W.M.A.
