Our Services

  • At Queen Herb & Acupuncture Clinic, we focus on three main strategies for treating obesity, with a special emphasis on herbal medicine for controlling appetite sourced from our Korea main office:

    1. Boosting Metabolism: We utilize specific herbal ingredients to help you burn more calories.

    2. Controlling Appetite: This is our top priority. Our herbal treatments are designed to effectively manage your appetite, making it easier to avoid overeating and adopt healthier eating habits.

    3. Blocking Fat Production: We also incorporate herbs that help prevent fat production from carbohydrates, supporting your weight management goals.

    By customizing our herbal ingredients for each individual, we enhance metabolism and effectively control appetite, allowing you to maintain a healthy weight without the need to skip meals.

    INDIBA : Effective Cellulite Removal

    You can see results from the very first treatment, and it’s a proven method. This treatment makes the targeted areas smoother and improves blood circulation, which boosts skin elasticity. It also helps tighten loose skin caused by aging or rapid weight changes.

  • Jung-An Acupuncture

    Jung-An Acupuncture is designed to help you achieve a younger and more radiant face. This traditional Korean treatment uses acupuncture to stimulate specific points on the face, which improves blood flow and energy circulation in the skin.

    By restoring the natural balance of energy in the face, this treatment can lift and firm the skin, reduce wrinkles, decrease swelling, brighten a dull complexion, and help with drooping lips and double chins. The result is a more youthful and vibrant appearance.

    MTS (Micro-Needling Therapy)

    MTS, or Micro-Needling Therapy, is a treatment that uses tiny needles to encourage your skin to produce more collagen. This helps improve various skin problems, like acne scars, large pores, fine lines, and overall skin texture and tone.

    INDIBA Deep Care

    INDIBA Deep Care is a flexible treatment that can be used alongside both medical and cosmetic procedures.

    It works well with both surgical and non-surgical treatments, offering different options for patients.

    This treatment helps speed up recovery from other procedures and is safe, painless, and non-invasive.

    Shurink Lifting

    Shurink lifting is a treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to lift the skin at depths of 1.5 to 9mm. This procedure helps strengthen the skin layers and the SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) layer, which can become loose due to aging.

    By delivering high-intensity ultrasound precisely to different skin layers, it penetrates deep to improve sagging skin, enhance elasticity, and reduce wrinkles, providing a lifting effect.

    Lifting Thread Treatment

    Lifting thread treatment helps lift sagging skin and refines the jawline, creating a slim V-shaped face. This method modernizes traditional acupuncture by using herbal threads inserted just beneath the skin.

    Over time, these threads dissolve slowly in the body, strengthening connective tissue and supporting the muscles. They also stimulate collagen production in the dermis, ensuring that the effects last and even improve over time.

  • At our clinic, we use Traditional Korean Medicine acupuncture to help with pain. We treat chronic pain and injuries from sports, accidents, and problems with muscles, joints, and nerves.

    Our goal is to help your body heal naturally and restore balance, especially for people with paralysis or nerve issues. We consider both outside factors and your overall health when treating you.

    Every treatment is customized to meet your needs, and we welcome anyone experiencing pain, paralysis, or unusual feelings.

    INDIBA Treatment

    INDIBA® therapy helps heal tissues and can be used alongside other treatments for great results.

    Using a special frequency of 448 kHz, it offers benefits like:

    • Pain Relief: Reduces pain

    • Increased Blood Flow: Improves circulation

    • Warmer Tissues: Heats up the treated areas.

    • Inflammation Control: Helps reduce swelling.

    • Cell Growth Boost: Encourages new cell growth.

  • Seasonal allergies happen when the nasal lining gets inflamed, causing symptoms like a runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, and itching. If these symptoms interfere with sleep or daily activities, it's classified as severe.

    A 4-week course of acupuncture can help reduce these symptoms and improve quality of life, with lasting benefits even after treatment. In traditional Korean medicine, treatments usually combine acupuncture with herbal remedies like Sochongryong-tang, Bojungikgi-tang, and Sinisan. These herbs help relieve symptoms and reduce inflammation.

  • Queen Growth Clinic helps children grow using a mix of treatments. Our herbal medicine and acupuncture helps balance the body during growth, and other treatments stimulate growth points to unlock a child’s height potential. While about 23% of a child's height is determined by genetics, around 77% is influenced by other factors. By managing these factors properly, we can help children reach their full growth potential

    Many reasons can affect a child's growth, and for about 60% of those with growth issues, a poor appetite is a major cause. If kids don’t eat well, they can’t grow properly because they miss out on important nutrients and energy. It's important to understand why a child has a poor appetite and find solutions to help them eat better for healthy growth.

  • In cases of illness, there are many reasons, including feelings of heat, circulation problems, organ dysfunction, a weakened immune system, slower metabolism, and constitutional issues. These factors are often connected, and sometimes multiple issues can lead to ongoing health problems or weaken the body. At Queen Herb & Acupuncture Clinic, we focus on identifying the specific causes of symptoms and provide personalized herbal treatments to help patients recover quickly.

    Strengthening the immune system helps the body fight off outside threats and improves overall health by boosting metabolism. We focus on more than just relieving symptoms. Our goal is to improve your immune function to prevent illnesses from coming back and to help you lead a healthier life.

  • What is the center of our body? Is it the heart or the brain? While all these parts are important, traditional Korean medicine believes that the spleen and stomach (called "biwi") are the core of our health. When these organs are healthy, they help us absorb nutrients from food and turn them into energy that spreads throughout the body.

    If the spleen and stomach aren’t working well, you might lose your appetite and have trouble absorbing nutrients. This can lead to low energy and a weakened immune system. So, when dealing with any health issue, it's important to check the condition of the spleen and stomach.

    Many people with long-term digestive problems often have a naturally weak spleen and stomach. At Queen Herb & Acupuncture Clinic, we create personalized treatment plans to carefully address each patient’s needs.

  • Modern stress can weaken our immune system and lead to health problems, so it's important to treat it early. Queen Herb & Acupuncture Clinic believes in the principle of "mind-body unity," meaning that a healthy mind and body work together. Our clinic uses traditional methods to calm the nervous system and treat without side effects.

    Stress-Related Health Issues

    Anger Syndrome (Hwabyeong):
    This condition happens when people can’t express their stress and anger, causing tightness in the chest and feelings of heat. If it lasts too long, it can lead to anxiety, trouble sleeping, dizziness, and difficulty focusing.

    Headaches:
    Many people suffer from chronic headaches without knowing why, relying on painkillers to hide the pain. These headaches can interfere with daily life. Traditional medicine categorizes headaches based on their causes, like muscle tension or digestive issues, and offers specific treatments for each.

    Nervous Stomach Disorders:
    This condition involves stomach discomfort, like bloating or gas, even when there’s no physical problem. If ignored, it can lead to feelings of sadness, confusion, and fatigue.

    Student-Related Fatigue & Chronic Fatigue:
    This type of fatigue can be caused by lack of sleep, stress, and physical activity. Symptoms often include tired eyes, migraines, insomnia, nausea, and discomfort when waking up. Treatment should focus on improving nutrition and building resilience against stress.

We accept major health insurance plans from a variety of providers.
