About the Guest:
Dr. Ernest Kim is a distinguished second-generation acupuncturist and board-certified chiropractor. After graduating with honors from the Southern California University of Health Sciences, Dr. Kim's journey into the realms of healing commenced at the age of 16, spurred by his battles with chronic low back pain. Traditional allopathic remedies fell short, leading him to discover the transformative power of regular stretching, chiropractic care, acupuncture, and massage therapy. Armed with a bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Colorado and a certification in Transformational Life Coaching, Dr. Kim employs an integrative approach to his assessment and diagnosis. Melding his extensive knowledge in chiropractic and acupuncture with an intuitive understanding of the patient's energy body, he unravels the origins of injuries and illnesses.
