A Passion for Healing: Dr. Kihyon Sohn in His Element

I practice in Beaverton, Oregon. I dreamt of being an itinerant acupuncturist, traveling the world with a simple bag of needles and golden moxibustion tools. This dream was sparked by my experiences offering free acupuncture and moxibustion treatments to those in need. Witnessing their recovery brought me immense joy. Learn more.

I translated portions of Korean acupuncture and moxibustion texts into English. While not an ornate work, it remains a resource for those interested. Please feel free to use the search box below to explore it further.
