What Patients are Saying

Blog 2

“I was a skeptic about acupuncture; my family didn’t believe in it and didn’t understand why I wanted to try it. But Vickie’s treatments are life-changing.

She helped me quit smoking, she fixed chronic problems like poor sleep and ‘women’s issues.’ She helped me focus before important public appearances and gave me balance and energy. Since I’ve started treatment with her, I’ve written two books, each within four months. She just makes your body run like a well-oiled machine.”

—Euny Hong, author The Power of Nunchi: The Korean Secret to Happiness and Success; The Birth of Korean Cool

“I trust Vickie’s knowledge, experience, and technique when it comes to acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. She has helped me with everything from neck pain to IVF in the many years we’ve worked together.

I recommend her to anyone who’s considering acupuncture and preventative medicine—especially in our post-Covid world where health needs to be our greatest priority.”

– Amy Schumer, comedian

“Vickie Lee transforms the way I think about wellness.

I leave every visit feeling restored and relaxed. She is a compassionate practitioner who I consider to be highly essential in helping me live a balanced life.”

—David S

“You will not find a more skilled, compassionate Chinese medicine practitioner in town.

Vickie Lee has speeded my recovery through a number of health crises, including a broken foot and shoulder surgery, and continues to provide support and relief from chronic aches and pains. I would not have had the same positive outcomes without her. If you’re looking for a healthcare partner, not just a provider, she is your best bet.”

– Laura G, Vice President and Publisher, Henry Holt

What to Expect

At VLA, we look forward to creating a positive medical experience. Your first appointment will include a thorough discussion of your health history and evaluation of your chief health complaint. Using physical meridian palpation, as well as pulse and tongue diagnosis, Vickie will then tailor a treatment plan for your needs. For most health issues, you should feel some relief after the first visit, and increasingly measurable improvement within 4-8 treatments. Our sessions will address your current symptoms and conditions, but also aim to prevent future illness and injury.

Chinese medicine is safe, minimally invasive and beneficial for people of all ages who are interested in holistic healing and preventative health. By utilizing the Five Pillars of Chinese Medicine: Acupuncture, Tui Na, Qi Gong, Nutrition, and Herbs, separately or in combination, Vickie specializes in helping you achieve and maintain the highest physical and emotional balance.

Chinese medicine is based on a medical philosophy that emphasizes the concept of health as a relationship between our human body and its environment, as well as the relationships within the human body. For example, our organ systems interact with and affect our mental and emotional states. Nourishing our awareness and understanding of how our internal and external environments co-exist is key to building sustainable long-term health.
