Disclaimer: I'm not related to Dr. Lim :) I was skeptical at first about having an acupuncture (scared of needles) but I'm glad that I had the courage to do it. I used to have dry nasal congestion for 3 years which makes it hard for me to sleep even with the prescribed anti allergy medication. In just 1 session, I can freely breath! I thought oh maybe it's just a coincidence but it didn't come back. So I'm still seeing Dr. Lim 2x a week to use all my benefits. My stress and other pain lessened as well. I'm glad I have an extended health insurance to cover for the treatments. Otherwise, I wouldn

Dr. Lim has made me feel better in the 3 weeks I've been seeing and the results are amazing. I've never felt better as a whole and highly recommend seeing him.

I have had chronic back pain for 5 years. I was tired of going to see western Dr's who would just want to give me a prescription. After seeing Dr. Lim for 2 sessions a week for 4 weeks I no longer have chronic pain! I also would get 2 migraines a month that woulf last several days, I have had no migraines since seeing Dr. Lim! Dr. Lim also helped me with any other health concern I had brought up to my GP. Dr. Lim has helped control my anxiety and depression. I wish I hadn't waited so long to try TCM.
