I am writing this letter to give my highest recommendation to Dr. Jay Ryu L.Ac. ...
It was then that several events in my life occurred at once and had immediate
negative effects on my health.
...I was diagnosed with diabetes. Furthermore, my new job which took an hour
and a half, each way, to drive to, had something in the air to which i\I wasa
chronically allergic.... It was then that i decided to seek Dr. Ryu's help. Oriental
medicine has proven itself for thousand of years and I wasn't about to ignore
it's benefits. He assured me that both the allergies and the diabetes could at
least be improved significantly, however, it took a long time for both conditions
to develop( my diet and work schedule for the last four years had been mainly
responsible, the events of last year had simply been the last straw) and would
take time to heal. The side effects would be increased energy, feeling ten
years younger and freedom form a debilitating lifestyle that would push my
body further towards exhaustion and poor health. This was more attractive to
me. I've never envisioned myself volunteering to be a pincushion, however, the
benefits far outweighed the imagined discomfort and the imagined discomfort
far exceeded the minimal discomfort that I actually experienced.
The western medical doctor in the mean-time had given me some samples of
one of the drugs for diabetes and for allergies. The allergy medicine was
almost completely useless at twice the dosage and I dropped it and the
diabetes prescription was fine for the short term. The effects of Dr. Ryu's
allergy treatment were evident within one week; I immediately felt better. My
allergies had disappeared within three weeks of his treatments.
Then Dr. Ryu began to treat my diabetes with herbal medication. The treatment
for allergies had given me so much added energy that I was able to stop taking
my diabetes drug. Over the next five months, I continued with the treatment
which has given me energy, endurance, perfect health, and I can even enjoy a
normal (albeit healthier) diet without worrying about the long term effects of a
single chocolate bar. And now the treatment has caused my glucose levels to
fall to near the bottom of the scale 85 mg/dl on an empty stomach.
He is a talented healer, he cares about his work, he enjoys making people
healthy again, and he doesn't sugar coat his words. He is very direct about
confronting the actual source of illness. Personally, I like this honest and
straightforward approach. It tells me that Dr. Ryu is truly interested in improving
the health and quality of life for his patients and for me it was one of the most  
worthwhile investments I've ever made. Please feel free to contact me if your
have any questions about my experience.

For several years I have been the prey of a malfunctioning Digestive System. I
was plagued with frequent constipation, back pains, fatigue, irrepressible
burping and a failing memory. I have seen a medical doctor and have been
under her care for a number of years.
For several months, my husband and step-son have been seeing an
Acupuncturist here in Burbank named Dr. Jay Ryu(Dr. Yu). I noticed my
husband's blue swollen legs, from lack of circulation, changing in size and
color. They look healthier and he generally seemed to feel better. The leather
like reddish wrinkles under his eyes have all but disappeared and his eyes are
by and large brighter. My step-son, 30 years old, has had a life-long weight
struggle and a serious bout with asthma/bronchial problems. He is finally
breathing much better and has inconspicuously dropped quite a bit of weight.
My situation was growing worse and i felt as though my intestines were going
to rupture. I did not feel good or look well. My husband convinced me to give Dr.
Yu a try since nothing else seemed to have any affect other than an inadequate
flush of a harsh laxative.
I have since been seeing Dr. Yu for a little over one month. Since then the back
pains that kept me from doing all the things I love and need to do like
exercising at Curves, sitting, standing, walking and doing daily chores have
disappeared. I have more energy and the pressure I felt from my intestines
has vanished completely. I am hopeful and looking forward to the day I will
have my Digestive system working properly on its own again. Today I am not
only getting more things done but I feel much lighter, happier and more alive.

I began weekly acupuncture treatments with Dr. Jay Ryu, L.Ac., spring 2004.
The Psychiatrist I see for  depression and bipolar disorder recommended I
resume acupuncture treatments to improve physical health. I felt very stressed
and depressed. My left shoulder ached nearly every afternoon. I needed near
12 hours of sleep nightly. I got up several times per night to urinate, disturbing
deep restorative sleep. Thigh areas were constantly sore and hurt when doing
normal daily stretching exercises; walking three miles a day is part of my
exercise routine; it had become painful.I felt stiff and sore walking, and
especially after sitting for short times. My body was recovering extremely poorly
after normal exercise. At 51 years old, I refused to attribute health problems
and aches to normal aging.
Slowly -- through Dr Ryu's weekly acupuncture treatments -- the aching
shoulder diminished; soreness in thighs diminished greatly. My body recovers
well after normal exercise again. I am better able to handle work stress; no
longer feeling overwhelmed or overloaded. More calm, especially after an
acupuncture treatment. As of November 2004, I am much improved --
physically, mentally and emotionally. Pharmaceutical drugs for depression and
bipolar disorder have been cut 50% and 75%. Left shoulder rarely aches, then
only briefly and mildly when I am very tired. Thighs no longer stay stiff and sore.
My body recovers from exercise much quicker. I don't get up during the night to
urinate. Quality of sleep is much improved. Digestion is much better. At 52
years old, I have a greatly improved sense of well being. My experience with Dr.
Ryu is positive, productive and encouraging.

Ten years ago, I had herniated the disk between L4 & L5 on the left side.   After
contemplating surgery, I sought physical therapy, which helped, but created
more physical problems. When I came to Jay for treatment, I had a myriad of
physical problems. I couldn't bend, kneel, sit cross-legged or runt to save my
life.
I was under chiropractic care for years with no relief. Then, my current
chiropractor told me she couldn't help me anymore and recommended I make
an appointment with an acupuncturist, which led me to Jay.
Under Jay's care I learned I had attachments, which is where the muscle
attached to the ligament. I had internal problems, as well. My digestion was not
functioning properly, nor my liver or kidneys. I had ringing in my right ear, which
left me unable to hear. I was constantly tired and sleeping during the day. I was
not able to stand up straight and I had to bend my knee to lessen the pain. I
was using my electrical stim every night. My sinuses were constantly "on" and I
was miserable.
The digestive process is the key to the other internal organs working correctly.
But, my recovery process was slow and I was frustrated. I conveyed my
frustration to a friend and he indicated that a person's emotional well-being
plays a part in recovery. So, I started the process of letting go of the past. And
guess what? I started to see a change in how my body was responding to the
treatments. It was slow, but it was happening. There were setbacks, of course,
because of the attachments.
My recovery process has been slow, with my treatment lasting over a year and
a half. I have setbacks, but they are minor compared to the setbacks of a year
ago. Acupuncture saved me. Jay saved me. I thought I was relegated to living
in pain for the rest of my life. Without you, I would still be living in constant pain.
Thank you, Jay.

We really want to appreciate to you after all you've done for may health and my
husband. When we walked your office the first time, my husband Pat was in
very unhealthy condition. He had two accident. The hospital couldn't do
anything for him, but you cured him. You gave him life and return back his
health and he got released from the depression.  
Then, for me, my knee was in very bad condition, but i am okay now with your
treatment. We want to tell you we really appreciate and thank you.
