Sunae utilizes treatments such as cupping, TuiNa, Moxa, Herbs and supplements to manage a variety of pain conditions. Sunae worked closely to integrate her plans with their staff of Chiropractors. After four years, Sunae moved-on to become Head Acupuncturist at AdCare Acupuncture and Wellness in Niles, IL, providing overall wellness treatments to her patients for two years before making her new nest shift to Bucktown Chicago.
As long as she can remember, she has been a foodie and a strong believer in clean living and eating. She believes that our body built out from what we are eating, breathing, and thinking every day. She believes that we are like a tree; when the roots are not healthy, the branches and leaves cannot flourish or thrive. When she is treating patients she always wants to treat not only the symptoms, but also underlining condition that originally causing the symptoms. Sunae believes, “We have the tendency to underestimate physical, mental, environmental and dietary stress in our everyday life. If you want your tree healthy, plant it in the right soil, nourish it with proper nutrition.” While she is treating patients, she also gives advises and educates them to manage and prevent re-occurring symptoms. Sunae enjoys walking, Yoga and Pilates as well as finding fresh, organic food for cooking Oriental cuisine at home. Sunae is extremely excited to sharing her expertise and passion for wellness and healthy living with her current and future patients in Bucktown Chicago.
