Get to know Dr. Erin Lee, DACM and learn more about What We Treat.
Our integrative approach for pain management includes the powerful combination of acupuncture with chiropractic care and physical therapy. Learn more about our team of affiliates.
Our core beliefs and practices are focused on YOU – this means we place priority on spending the time to get to know you, your lifestyle and changes to your body in order to get to the bottom of causes and contributing factors.
While many practices will see anywhere from 2-4 patients per hour with limited face time and services performed, we dedicate our full focus and efforts on one patient at a time.
This works to your advantage as it enables us to thoughtfully devise a treatment plan that incorporates not only acupuncture but a combination of treatment therapies including herbal medicine, nutritional advice, cupping, gua sha, tuina massage, E-stim, herbal liniments and vibroacoustic therapy.
THE RESULT? More accurate diagnoses and the ability to get to the ROOT of the issue rather than simply treating symptoms, leading to faster results and long-term recovery.

My recent experiences with Dr Erin Lee have been so positive. As an acupuncture patient she has been so thorough in her understanding of my health needs. After four years of consistent pain following a series of injuries, I am now receiving pain relief. She is an expert in tracking the pain pathways. -
I highly recommend Dr. Lee. She is very caring and thoughtful - making sure to fully understand all of my issues both physical and mental in order to take the best approach in healing. I must say from just getting 2 treatments so far, I definitely feel a difference. I've had heaviness and pain in my shoulder/upper back for some time and it feels a lot lighter overall. It's very hard to find doctors that actually care and are personable these days. So happy I had the opportunity get treatments from Dr. Lee. -
Dr. Lee is excellent. She was able to see me right away when I had major back pain and after a few treatments, I am feeling so much better. She is calming, inquisitive and intuitive. Acupuncture really works! -
Dr. Lee has helped me tremendously with my issues. I tore tendons and ligaments in my foot- and with weekly accupuncture visits, I am able to walk very well and pain-free! Dr. Lee is kind and extremely knowledgeable about her profession and I highly Reccomend her services! -
I went to see Erin for my migraines. After a sit-down, going through my extended history, she really took the time to understand my health issues. Then, I swear, when she placed some of the needles in my leg, I felt an electric jolt like those pathways led right to my problem areas. Her knowledge of the body and pressure points is amazing.I always have these tender/sore spots behind my ears down the sides of my neck, and when it gets too tense it leads to a migraine. After just my first treatment, I was feeling/prodding my neck and... read more -
I love Dr Lee! I’ve tried acupuncture before, and I like it, but this is the first time I have really been able to tell a difference. She has such a caring and well rounded approach that not only helped my shoulder issues but also brought my stress level down a couple of notches. I’ve already recommended her to friends who have started seeing her. I can’t sing her praises enough! -
Dr. Lee is great. I wasn't sure if acupuncture was going to help my knee pain, but it has definitely done so. The experience hasn't been what I'd expected -- I'd had other acupuncture sessions that were less clinical, and less effective. Dr. Lee's knows what she's doing, she very perceptive, and careful and methodical about her work. She's also reassuring and helpful in getting you to describe what's wrong so she can treat it well; in other words, everything I want in a doctor. -
I’ve been having chronic issues including fatigue, back and shoulder pains, and indigestion due to stress and I had the fortunate opportunity to meet Dr Lee. Her amazing treatments and prescriptions have been able to help my body to better handle the stress I deal with on a daily basis and resulted in improving tension and blood circulation, all of which lead to improving everything else that seemed to going wrong with my body. I highly recommend her if you’re body is going through any type of stress from digestion to muscle pains. She takes care of it all, and well!!! -
As a person that is fearful of doctors and needles, the thought of receiving acupuncture treatment is daunting. However, Dr Lee has made each visit a pleasant one. I have chronic back pain due to my job and she has helped me each time I had muscle spasms. Her amazing bedside manner and calming presence has made it a great experience. Her fees are also very reasonable to make it affordable for such a chronic problem. I highly recommend Dr Lee!!! You won’t be disappointed!!! -
After just a few visits, Dr. Lee helped me reduce my pain by 85%. I’ve had low back pain, with hip and buttocks pain for over a year. For someone who does not love acupuncture, Dr. Lee makes your visit warm and personable. She’s caring and genuinely wants to help. I can’t believe the results I’ve seen just after a few sessions! Highly recommend her services. -
Dr. Lee is amazing. She is very thorough and ensures she knows about you before she starts her treatments. Also she and the office observes excellent COVID procedures. Highly recommend her. -
Dr. Lee is a compassionate, patient, gentle practitioner, who truly cares about her patients' well-being. I've only been working with her for a few months, but I can feel marked improvement with chronic pain issues in my body! Our sessions never feel rushed; I truly appreciate how she takes time to explain her process and answer all my curious questions, and how she makes me feel like we're on a team to help me feel well. Highly recommend! -
Dr. Erin Lee is awesome. Had acupuncture in the past but Dr. Lee takes it to another level. She asked questions about my health and carefully assessed my needs and explained/educated me on the underlying reasons for each procedure performed. She has a full array of tools from acupuncture, cupping and sound/vibration therapy. i pulled a hamstring and she helped me recover relatively quickly. Her facilities are in a clean and professional medical office. Highly recommend her practice! -
Dr Lee is an an amazing acupuncturist! She is friendly, gentle, and communicative. Unlike other acupuncturists I've worked with, Dr Lee will go above and beyond to explain particular aspects of treatment to you and their benefits. I always leave a session feeling revitalized and calm. I can't recommend Dr Lee enough! -
Dr. Erin has been treating me for wrist and forearm pain related to busy work season which consisted of 70-90 hour weeks. Erin's patient care manner and skillset have exceeded my expectations. She continually solicits your feedback to adapt and personalize your treatment plan. An example of this would be Dr. Erin incorporating cupping therapy after she observed how tense my shoulders and neck were. I had grown so used to the discomfort that I ignored the pain. Overall, I highly recommend her services. I have experienced vast improvement and pain relief starting after just my first session. -
My experience with Dr Lee has been wonderful- I leave her office feeling brand new. In addition to acupuncture, Dr Lee performs cupping, sound therapy and other Chinese medicine therapies based on my needs of the given day. I have noticed improvement in my various medical conditions, from the treatments she offers as well as the tangible tools/tips that she provides for me to use at home. So kind and knowledgeable! -
Dr Lee was introduced to me through my current chiropractor. After seeing multiple different acupuncturist I was a little hesitant at first but, I am glad I jumped in the deep end. She is great explaining and forming a plan. I have a hard time dealing with stress, psoriasis, and other conditions which she helped with over the past few months of treatment. I would highly recommend anyone to her. -
I have been seeing Dr. Lee for chronic low back pain I’ve been suffering from for 2 years. With her method I have finally been able to do more in my life. Dr.Lee takes her time to listen, and explain her process. She has se weak methods to address pain such as cupping, and aroma therapy which has helped significantly. She considers all ailments you may be feeling but uses clinical reasoning to prioritize what to work on. As a result, all my other ailments for better too! Highly recommend. -
I’ve been dealing with chronic pain for the past few years and I’m so happy to have found Dr.Erin. She is kind, patient, and knowledgable about the workings of the body and provides a well-thought out course of treatment. Love the warm and welcoming feel of her office and feeling much better than I have in a long time. -
Love Erin! She really listens to what I'm struggling with and I see improvements every week. She's really knowledgable and can offer valuable insight. Definitely recommend her!! -
My session with Dr. Lee was magical! She’s so intuitive and thorough which made me feel completely at ease. I’m a very active person as both a personal trainer and an athlete so my body has been pushed to its limits lately. That cupping session brought me so much relief. I plan to seeing her for acupuncture and more cupping on a regular basis as I strive to make recovery a higher priority. I 100% recommend that you pay her a visit, especially if your body has experienced some wear and tear like mine! -
My brother in-law (in KC) is a chiropractor and practices acupuncture. My wife says he’s the best, and with no comparison, I did so too. However, when my wife saw Dr. Lee, she was thoroughly impressed and recommended I see her as well (a lot closer at 56th street). After two visits, she addressed a badly sprained ankle and now with three in, has significantly increased movement in my shoulders and neck which have been a chronic issue. As a Work In Progress, I look forward to follow ups to further improve my upper body mobility and well being. -
Dr. Lee is a great Acupuncturist! She is communicative and attentive to your health goals. I strongly recommend her practice! She has helped reduce my pain and worked with me to achieve great results in just a couple of visits. Dr. Lee is knowledgeable, professional and patient. I am glad that I was able to find her through my chiropractor Dr. Pico. -
