Clark Kim graduated with a diploma in Acupuncture from Burnaby’s PCU College of Holistic Medicine, a Bachelor’s in Integrated Media Art from Emily Carr University, a Master’s in Osteopathy, a PhD in Physical Medicine Rehabilitation (PMR) and a Doctor of Naprapathy (DN) from NUMSS (National University of Medical Sciences). Clark helped many patients overcome difficulties from chronic pain and digestive disorders to stress, weight loss, anxiety, and infertility. Currently, he’s studying for an MBA at ENEB and a Bachelor’s in Computer Science at University of the People, pursuing these for fun and to deepen his understanding of the world.

What sets him apart from other Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners is that he’s one of the few Registered Acupuncturists in North America to offer Korean Elemental Therapy services, alongside IMS/dry needling and non-needle therapy options. Dating back almost four centuries, Korean Elemental Therapy—the most popular acupuncture technique in South Korea—relies on five element points and four needles to restore balance to body and mind.

Clark combines Korean Hand Therapy, IMS/dry needling, and Traditional Chinese Medicine in his practice to maximize results when treating back, neck, and knee pain, headaches, digestive disorders, anxiety, depression, infertility, addiction, chronic fatigue, skin concerns, and more.

For those wary of needles, Clark offers non-needle therapy and uses safe, effective equipment like an ion beam, electro infrared stone machine, and special aluminum pallets, alongside IMS/dry needling, to deliver comparable results to traditional acupuncture.

During his spare time, Clark enjoys working out at the gym, learning about life in depth beyond just health, reading/writing, going for walks outside, and travelling.

Clark is fluent in English and Korean.
