Vertigo/Migraine Headache Treatment I was diagnosed with Vertigo during my first pregnancy. At first the doctors said it was due to the pregnancy and would go away with physical therapy. I went for physical therapy for about 4 months. That did not work at all. Then the doctors told me to go see a specialist. The specialist said it would go away after I gave birth. It did not. It actually got worse. I would get extreme motion sickness, dizziness,and disoriented while I was driving. I was completely unable to drive. It was devastating. Three months after giving birth I went back to the specialist, he wanted to put me on 2 different prescriptions that would help ease the anxiety of the vertigo. I looked into the medication he prescribed for me and it would only mask the problem NOT cure me of the vertigo. I couldn't take the prescription due to all the scary side effects and did not want to be stuck on meds for the rest of my life. I felt doomed and was scared I would be stuck unable to drive. Acupuncture was my last resort. I was skeptical but went anyway. I met Dr. Cha and he is a life saver. He truly is a great doctor, he listened to my story and treated my problem. He was understanding and cared about curing my issue rather than masking it. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Cha he is the best. His staff is super friendly and were very flexible with making appointments. I love this place and was very luck to find it. I can now drive and my life has went back to normal. Thank you again Yedarm Clinic!

Forget the epidural or surgery...Chong is the Answer. I was in severe pain from a 12mm herniated disk in between my 5th and 6th vertebrae. i was put on every pain killer possible to be taken every four hours. my pain never went below an 8, on a scale of 1 to 10, even with an epidural.

At my first visit with Dr. Chong he was so attentive and immediately when he began treatment my pain went from a 9 to a 3! in just the first 20 min of meeting him.I was SOLD. I continued to see Chong every 4 days for two weeks, during which i only took 2 pain killers, and i left with No pain and a very grateful patient.

Go see Chong you will be so happy you saved the money and your time by getting his treatment.

Progressing Well from Pit Plum Syndrome. I suffered 8 years from phlegm (mucos) in the throat with no relief . I could be heard from afar off clearing my throat all the day long which not only caused great embarrassment for me, but would also leave me tired and exhausted and my throat burning by the end of the day. Top gastroenterology and ENT doctors in the Chicagoland and Arizona areas were not able to diagnose the problem nor prescribe any medication that would even appease the symptoms. After many visits and spending thousands towards plan deductibles and prescriptions, each specialist that I visited told me the same thing-- that my tests did not show anything that was either life threatening or that could adequately be attributed to any specific illness or disease. Each Specialist would then systematically ask me what medications I had taken in the past and would prescribe yet another gastric or allergy medication that I had not taken before, all of which did not give me any relief at all. One day I stumbled across the Yedam Well Being Center door and asked for a business card. Dr. Hoyoon Chong was able to see me immediately, and that same day diagnose that I suffered from a condition called Pit Plum Syndrome. Just the fact of knowing that my condition had a name gave me great relief! Later on that day after the first treatment, the symptoms disappeared for over a week! After several return visits, I am well into my healing process, and I am able to control reocurrence of the symptoms through the medical counseling and treatment that I received from this health care center. I cannot tell you how happy and how much better I feel just knowing that my condition can be managed through my own contribution, along with Dr. Chong's treatment and advice. Dr. Chong is a doctor that actually cares for his patients and wants to see them get well. Along with this condition, other health concerns have also disappeared! I would recommend the Yedam Well Being Center to all. I am fortunate in that my insurance does cover accupuncture, but even if it didn't, I would pay out of pocket for the help that I have received here.

Great Acupunture Clinic. I am a physician in the suburbs of Chicago. I suffered from tennis elbow for 18 months. I had 2 steriod injections and lots of physical therapy. Nothing worked. I decided to try acupunture as a last resort, as some of my friends had done it for various problems. The treatment was not painful and I saw results immeidately. Within several months my tennis elbow did not bother me at all. I also had some intermittent arm numbness which is completely gone. I was very impressed with Dr. Chong and the Yedam Clinic.

Pinched nerve, frozen shoulder, lack of energy. Yes I have had all the above and like everyone, I usually felt a bit skeptical of acupuncture but I have overcome those doubts time and time again. I started coming to Yedam in the beginning for a very bad pinched nerve in my neck and shoulder. Dr. Chong told me that I should feel some relief by the time I left and I should be able to move my head. I was chuckled because I was in so much pain and didn't believe him. Well within 20 minutes after my treatment...I was 70% better and the next day the pain was gone. I receive a jolt of energy along with the treatment which was great. I usually have been on low energy and it seems to kick me up a notch.

I recently went to him for a frozen shoulder and again...I was in major pain and felt as though my head was going to explode from it traveling up into my neck and head. I was so relieved about an hour 1/2 after the treatment. Going from not being able to function to feeling that relief was huge.

I have become a firm believer and plan to head to my acupunturist when I don't feel real great or have some issues with my body. I believe there is a lot that goes on with us when we are not in proper balance and Dr. Chong can help you get back to that balance. I thank him over and over and refer to his as MAGIC...

Best Acupuncture anywhere. I have been having headaches for few years; in the last few months I have had them evey day.

My visit at the doctor's office and taking presciption/pharmaceutical medicines did not bring any results.

I decided then to go to the Korean Clinic Herbs Acupucture, Dr. PHD OMD Puramo Chong.

Dr. Puramo Chong acupuncture and taking by mouth natual herbs helped me alreay after few days.

My headaches were gone, and I could normally function during the day.

Weight loss success. I have been obease for over 10 years and have been desperate to lose it. I have done everything possible to lose it. I have switched to eating organic foods, hired a personal trainer, went to medical specialists, and hypnosis. I have done it all and my weight loss results were disappointing. I was at my last straw when i found the Yedam clinic and they delivered what they promised. I lost 25 pounds in the first 30 days and I am still losing weight. My starting weight was 241 pounds and currently I weigh 208 pounds. I look 10 years younger and feel great and all my friends, family, and co-workers are wondering how I lost so much weight in so little time. I owe a lot to the Yedam clinic for changing my life. Thank you!

best acupunture treatment. After suffering from sinus infection for three years and migraines for fifteen years, and not getting any help from my family physician besides over-the-counter-pills, I decided to turn to an alternative medicine for help. After taking the medicine and attending acupunture sessions twice a week, I felt considerable relief, especially from my sinus problems. The headaches that I have experienced almost dailly went away and the pressure around the eyes that I have constantly felt, also dissipitated. In addition, I feel as though I have an increase in the energy level, but most importantly I stopped taking over-the-counter medications, which are derimental to ones's liver and kidneys. I believe that I have definitely received a very personalized and individualized treatment, which focused specifically on my problems. For example, the Doctor carefully gathered my history before beginning any kind of treatment and ensured to check in on my condition conistently throughout the teatment process. I couldn't be more greatful for getting the relief that I was searching for for years and I highly recommend Yedum Acupunture as I believe it will most cerainly improve your health. Lastly, I want to mention that believing that something will work plays a huge role in the process. Being of an European descent, we often tend to worship traditional medicine and disregard other methods of treatment. However, when we reach the point when traditional medicine is not being effective, it definitely helps to look outside the box, and in my case, find something really great. A cure for my suffering.

BEST ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE EVER!!!. Here it goes...I have never believed or even thought something like this would work. I popped my back recently and I've done everything, but I had so much pain constantly. Then I read the "Top 50 exotic doctors in the world" and found Dr. Chong to be only a few miles away from me. I went there, with of course big skeptism, then there was an assistant who guided me to my room and in comes the infamous Dr. Chong. He first asks me specifically what bothers me and then he takes my wrist and starts to listen to my pulse. Incredibily, after he did that he knew things about me, kind of scary, but then he started the needle therapy, and at first I thought it would hurt, but it was no more then a quick pinch and sometimes you didn't even feel it. Weird thing was I had a bad lower back where the pain shot down my left butt to my left leg, but he was applying needle therapy in my right knee and foot and hand, then after a while he told me start walking. OMG!!!...what a Miracle....that instant I felt 70-80% better....Unbelievable?...BELIEVE IT!!! Then he told me to come once more if the pain is still there the next morning and of course no pain the next morning...EVERYONE NEEDS TO TRY THIS!!!...there;s a reason why athletes all do it...and it is SO CHEAP!!! YEDAM IS THE BEST...THANK YOU YEDAM!!!
