I had been experiencing continual pain in my elbow and shoulder for months and had tried various remedies to relieve the discomfort and bring down the swelling, but nothing worked. I tried acupuncture before with little success but decided to give it another shot – and after just one treatment with Ken, the pain in my elbow was gone completely and my shoulder had improved. I was surprised at the immediate results and wondered whether they would last. Almost two months have gone by and the pain in my elbow has not returned. I am extremely impressed by Ken Shim’s technique and would highly recommend seeing him for both short-term and chronic pain management. Thank you Ken for healing my elbow!………………Karen F.

Having experienced back trouble all my life, I have tried many avenues to relieve the discomfort.  When I had the opportunity to see Ken, he was able to provide a great relief to the stress I had in my lower back.  The difference in my daily life was noticeable almost immediately.  It is wonderful to know I don’t need to just accept the pain as part of my life!  Not only do I have the physical relief, but Ken has such a great sense of humour that I always leave with a lighter mood.  Thanks Ken!………………….Marla H.

I had severe low back problems for several months, preventing me from working out and playing with my kids.  I started therapy with Ken in March 2008, and by April 2008 I was almost back to normal.  Ken worked hard each visit, adjusting to my needs and focusing on which part of my back was currently giving me the most pain.  I have no hesitation in recommending Ken, and strongly suggest you visit him………………… Errol P.

I’ve had chronic back, leg and knee problems for the last 4 years. During this time I’ve been to many massage therapists but results were short lived. I was introduced to Ken back in February 2008 and have attended his massage therapy sessions on a regular basis with astounding results. Ken has played a big part in rehabilitating my mid & lower back, legs, and knee problems. I never thought it would be possible to achieve a much lower degree of pain. I would like to add, Ken’s professionalism, knowledge and concern for the well being of his patients/clients will give him an edge for success. Thank you Ken!!! Cheers……………….Toni D.

I initially sought out registered massage therapy with Ken because I was experiencing a sore back, neck pain, and tingling in my hands and calves. This meant that I couldn’t sit for long periods of time, my athletic performance was lacking, and even sleeping was uncomfortable.  Ken really worked hard to make sure he understood my concerns at our initial information session and took the time to work on my muscle groups, teach me to stretch effectively, and encourage a more healthy lifestyle overall. Today I am able to work at my desk, perform on the court and sleep soundly. I owe that to Ken and registered massage therapy. Thanks Ken!………………..Jason S.

After months of back/neck pain, I decided it was time to seek professional help.  That is when I met Ken.  His knowledge and technique has greatly improved my condition.  He has created a comfortable & professional atmosphere where I can relax & enjoy my massage but also has taken the time to teach me preventative exercises/stretches that have been very beneficial in my day to day life.  I highly recommend Ken’s services to anyone looking for relief/treatment.  Thanks Ken…………..Joana A.

I am a client of Ken’s and I have to say that Ken is one of the best massage therapists I have ever been to. When I leave his table I feel 100% relaxed and relieved from all pain and stress. Thanks Ken………………….Faisal R.

I’ve seen Ken for a couple of different issues and he has always helped me with them.  Not only does he provide great treatment during our sessions, he goes the step beyond by providing additional exercises and stretches to perform to speed up the healing process.  He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience into helping you get better and stay better……….

I recently went to Ken for the first time valuing the range of approaches he is qualified to draw upon: RMT, acupuncture, some osteopathic approaches.  From the thorough assessment he took the time to conduct, he brought his array of knowledge and experience.  I appreciated the conversation we had about what I had come to have worked on.  I felt like he really listened to me try to describe my experiences & insights about the aches, pains and malfunctions I sought to have addressed.  He seems to really love what he does.  His enthusiasm for trying to piece together the puzzle of what was happening and what might fix it helped me feel more hopeful that the aches and pains and malfunctions could be improved.  And they were.  Plus: I suspect one would always be surprised by the mix of great sounds that come out of his ipod.  Not the swish of waves or the cry of gulls (unless you asked I suppose) but long lost Edie Brickell for starters.  I may regret this review if it means I soon won’t be able to get an appointment, but he’s good: he deserves it……………..Beth E.

I’ve seen Ken for a wide range of sports related injuries and issues over the past few years and he ranks right at the top for considerate, effective and insightful work as a massage therapist.  Ken works out the immediate kinks and knots with massage but he’s always looking to figure out how I can adjust my workout as well as daily routines to get my body running right.  As an athlete who is constantly tweaking something I greatly value his holistic and experienced approach to massage therapy and feel he brings amazing value to the time spent in his care………………..

Very good ‘first timer’ experience with Ken! Comfortable, zen atmosphere with surprisingly relaxing and eclectic ambient music playing in the background while I received painless and effective acupuncture and massage. will definitely be back!………………….. Dominique D.C.

Ken is amazing. I have come to Ken with a couple different sport and exercise related issues, and he has been great. While I have always loved a good massage I have never actually experienced how truly healing it can be until Ken’s care. His combination of acupuncture and massage has gotten me back to being active and doing the things I love to do way faster then I would have thought possible. I would highly recommend Ken………….
