Jimin Mai

I am very impressed with Dr Mai’s practice.
I have been having a recurring health problem (cyst in reproductive area) and was about to have surgery — which I wasn’t a fan of. My friend suggested I try a more holistic approach… After the 2 visits with Dr Mai, the problem was completely gone and I didn’t need surgery.
When it comes to healthcare, I am only looking for results and I surely got the results I was looking for here.
Not only does he give you an acupuncture treatment, he can also do cupping if needed, and prescribed herbs to help balance what needs balancing.
I highly recommend him.

Dr. Mai is the best. He managed to take away a chronic pain behind my right shoulder blade that had been bothering me for over a decade. I had seen multiple chiropractors and seen physical therapists annually. Through 6 months of treatments my pain was gone and has stayed away now for 3 years.
I am now seeing him to help me through my labor process in the last month of pregnancy.
I highly recommend Accupuncture as a form or treatment to ailing bodies or even as a measure to keep tour body healthy and I highly recommend Dr. Mai as a doctor! He knows his stuff!
He takes insurance or its $ 48 for a cash walk-​in

Based on Angie’s List and Unilocal reviews, I took a chance on Dr. Mai. What a wonderful find he is.
I have been reviewed and tested by dozens of MDs as well as holistic practitioners. Based on my past experience with acupuncturists, Dr. Mai is the «real deal» as to acupuncture.
I can tell based on personal experience if an acupuncturist knows what they’re doing as to putting in the acupuncture needles. Dr. Mai’s deftness of touch, knowledge and approach gives me a high degree of confidence that he knows what he’s doing. And trust me, I’ve been to many. I have a sense that he’s «old school» in regards to his Chinese training and knowledge, but coupled with up to date western medical information and approaches (e.g., his herbs are powdered and provided in bottles, rather than the raw herbs which need to be boiled and stinks up your house). His English is excellent and explains in detail his findings (looking at my tongue and feeling my pulses), and what his goals are in terms of my care.
It’s wonderful to know that there are still acupuncturists out there like Dr. Mai, who is not trying to squeeze every dollar from non-​Chinese clients who don’t know any better and because it’s «holistic» think it’s worth paying high prices. I’ve been to acupuncturists in high rent districts such as Santa Monica, who tells you to come in 2 times a week for the rest of your life, and want to charge you a ridiculous amount for the herbs. And they still didn’t help with my symptoms. Dr. Mai’s affordability makes him very accessible to most. And, yes, he is «in plan» for my PPO — hooray. The herbs are not covered by insurance, but they are only $ 10 a bottle.
My only wish is that he is also open on Saturdays. Unfortunately, his hours are only Monday through Friday.
I’ve only seen him, so far, 2 times (over a 2 week period), but my recent acute symptoms have substantially subsided. Though he is 30 miles away from me, he is worth the drive.

I felt better after the first time I went to him. I have lower back pains and a herniated disc in my lower back as well. He does cupping, Acupuncture, and a lot more. He makes you feel very comfortable and relaxed.
