Horyong Kim Profile
Horyong Kim, L.Ac MSTOM is a National Board Certified and state licensed
acupuncturist and herbalist in NYS since 2014. He earned his degree from Southern
California University, School of Oriental Medicine and Acupuncture in 2014.

In Korea, there is a saying ‘일침(一鍼) 이구(二灸) 삼약(三藥)’, which means ‘First is
Acupuncture, Second is Moxibustion, and Third is Herbs’.
However, there is another
meaning that is ‘First is Heaven, Second is Earth, and Third is Human.’ So treating
patients with Oriental Medicine means to use all universal energy.
In addition, he believes in Plato’s motto “The part can never be well unless the whole is
well”. Therefore, his approach to Oriental Medicine is a combination of finding the right
balance of acupuncture, moxibustion, Herbs and patient’s lifestyle.
Horyong realizes the importance of patient education and places an emphasis on
teaching self-management skills and home care. These skills empower the patient to
gain personal control over their conditions and maintain healthy lifestyle through diet,
exercise, and positive mental attitude. He prides himself on giving individual care and
attention to each patient, spending the time that is needed to achieve results, no matter
what the condition, having his ultimate goal be to help each patient reach their wellness
potential.
"Having gone through conception and pregnancy (twice) with Jaesun, I am convinced that her treatments, guidance and cool-headed support made all the difference in navigating what was, at times, a challenging process. After my first child was born I continued to see Jaesun to help me with back pain and I can't imagine a time when we don't have regular check-ins. If nothing else, a session with Jaesun allows for the time and space we all need to need to restore a little balance to our often unbalanced lives."

"I had been suffering from debilitating headaches and anxiety for quite some time. Western medicine was not helping. Jaesun's intake process was very thorough. Her acupuncture treatments, in addition to her carefully chosen supplements, as well as the dietary changes she suggested, have eliminated my problems.
She is a godsend."

"When I went to see Jaesun I was diagnosed with premature ovarian insufficiency at age 36 with fsh level 98 and AMH of 0.05. I haven’t had my period in several months. I was told from the fertility doctor that I would not be able to get pregnant and should consider donor egg IVF. I started seeing Jaesun at my doctor’s recommendation. After 3 months of acupuncture and herbal therapy I had gotten my period for the first time in 6 months and 2 months later I found out I was pregnant and couldn’t believe it. I continued the treatments through the first trimester and now I am in my third trimester doing well."
