Auricular Acupuncture, also known as "ear acupuncture" is a very common technique that is used to stimulate specific points of the ear. This approach was mainly used in China but since the 1980s, auricular acupuncture has become more popular all over the world. The traditional acupuncture uses hair thin needles to stimulate different points all over your body but ear acupuncture exclusively focuses on ears.
Holistic Medicine is defined by the Canadian Holistic Medical Association as follows: it is a system of health care which fosters a cooperative relationship among all those involved, leading towards optimal attainment of the physical, mental and emotional aspects of health.

I have been diagnosed with sciatica two years ago. This is an acute paine, originated in the spine and radiated down the back or the side of the leg. It can disable you for weeks and can continue for months after that, disturbing your movement all the time. A friend of mine has recommended Dr. Kari Ye to me and I decided to visit her. I was amazed.
Just in two visits, I fill no disturbing pain and fill the joy of walking painlessly again. AND she did this with an acupuncture on front of my body only with no need even to lay face down on these first two visits. Now I continue my treatment biweekly and eventually monthly later, just to maintain my condition the way it is. I am very happy with Juntendo Clinic and especially with Dr. Kari Ye EXELENT service and care. Thank you for your help Dr. Kari!

I have been a patient of Juntendo for several years but had only a few treatments a year until last year, when I started to visit more regularly. I have seen for myself Dr. Ye's ability to determine the condition of the whole body, not just the problematic part, based on her knowledge of both Eastern and Western medicine. Also, I have witnessed her skill in changing treatment methods depending on each patient's natural constitution.
This approach is a welcome contrast to that used by other acupuncturists, who use the same textbook methods for every treatment even though the condition of the patient doesn't improve much. I learned that distortion caused by many years of assuming a poor posture while walking and standing contribute to not only pains but also sleep and digestive problems in the long run. Dr. Ye showed me that acupuncture treatments assist the body's intention to change bad habits itself.
The body resists change initially, so when first starting treatment, it may feel like the situation is getting worse; it's not. After realizing these facts and seeing Dr. Ye at work, I am trying to have treatment regularly now. I can really tell that Dr. Ye's treatments are worth it.

Well what can I say about this clinic. amazing and caring! This review is a LONG TIME coming! My spouse and I have been seeing Dr Kari and Dr Jiang since 2017 for fertility regularly.

I had major surgery on both my shoulders, after 40 years of heavy construction work. I began going to Juntendo Clinic about 2 years ago. Dr. Kari Ye, and her associate Dr. Fan Jiang are truly amazing. I like to exercise, and it used to be very painful, now when I exercise I have no pain. I can actively engage with my 13 Grandchildren. I am very grateful to DR.Ye and DR. Jiang for all their help. John Walsh

My mom and I visit Dr. Ye for acupuncture since February. It is the best experience that we ever have. Dr. Ye is very professional, patient and considerate. She not only takes care of us but also explains treatment details to ensure address our concern. My mom's health got big improved only after one treatment. It is amazing! Not like other Chinese acupuncturists, Dr. Ye is pretty and humorous. We love her.

When I was 35-36 weeks pregnant my baby was breech and I went (back because I've seen Dr. Ye in the past) to try acupuncture to see if the baby would flip on her own. I saw her 2 consecutive times and along with the needles she used moxa.and gave me some to use at home too. Well, it worked, at my next doctor appointment my doctor told me the baby's head was down.and she stayed down (she was a filpper the whole pregnancy).
Since I previously had a c-section, my doctor told me that if I didn't go into labor on my own then I'd have to have another one. I didn't want to have another c-section and since I was 2 weeks late with my first pregnancy and had to be induced.going into labor on my own by my due date with this pregnancy was probably unlikely. When I had my regular doctor appointment on a Thursday (39 weeks 5 days) I was told I wasn't dialated or effaced.and he gave me until 41 weeks to go into labor or it'd be a c-section.
I already decided that by my 40th week if I hadn't gone into labor then I'd try acupuncture. So, the very next day (Friday) I went to see Dr. Ye. I wanted to at least try to see if acupuncture could help me. I saw her both Friday and Saturday.early Sunday morning (around 4am) I started having pains that woke me up.they eventually got worse and it dawned on me that these might be contractions.
To make a long story short, I was in labor. I went to the hospital at around 9:30am and my baby was born at 1:11pm.on her due date. Dr. Ye is such a nice person and she really wants to help you.she takes her time with you and really makes you feel that you're in good hands. She knows what she's doing and I highly recommend seeing her for anything.not just pregnancy related issues.

Dr. Kari Ye is by far the most amazing acupuncturist I have ever met. I began seeing Dr. Kari in early 2010 to help cure me of the worst case of psoriasis before my wedding that was soon approaching. She cured me of that in about 6 months. My husband and I were having trouble conceiving after our wedding to which Dr. Kari informed me I had a "cold uterus".
This would need to be fixed in order to conceive. I was worried because I was turning 42 in late Oct. To my surprise we were delighted to find out we were pregnant with a little girl born in 2012. I was 42 at the time. Fast forward to today I am happy to report we are expecting again, I'm still in happy shock, and due next year. I'm 44. All natural with no medical intervention.
If you are struggling with infertility I can't recommend Dr. Kari enough, she is amazing along with her staff. She can fix anything! Please don't miss your opportunity.

Saw Dr. Kari Ye at Juntendo Clinic to try acupuncture on my chronic lower back pain. It was a great experience! The pain was considerably less after two treatments and is now completely gone. I will continue to go back. In addition to the great care I received, the Clinic is located very conveniently at the intersection of Arlington Heights road and Golf Rd.
