Lok-Kwan offers acupuncture treatment that gets immediate results. ‘Lok-Kwan’ means ‘happily serving the people’, a reminder that we’re here to nourish each other as we discover ourselves.
Complex and difficult conditions become treatable when we understand that they are not separate entities but stages of transformation. Whether the problem is migraines, high blood pressure, low back pain, anxiety, insomnia, low energy, or hair loss, knowing how diseases move and mutate within the body to affect different functions and organs points the way to cure. Energy medicine is not deterministic. It is an open system that allows for transformation. There are always alternative ways to understand and solve a problem. There are always possibilities for change.

Business Owner
Lok-Kwan was born and grew up in Hong Kong. He started practicing Qigong and Chinese martial arts when he was a teenager. After he came to the U.S. he continued his internal practice with Master Wai-Lun Choi of Chicago and served as his assistant instructor for many years. In the nineties his tenure as secretary of the Midwest Buddhist Council enabled him to learn and practice meditation closely with monks from many traditions. At the same time he studied Zen Shiatsu with Wataru Ohashi Sensei and became a Certified Ohashiatsu Instructor. He studied Classical Chinese Medicine and Daoist healing arts with the renowned teacher Jeffrey Yuen. He learned auricular acupuncture under the mentorship of Dr. Richard Niemtzow, the creator of the Battlefield Protocol who was instrumental in bringing the practice of acupuncture to the US Armed Forces. Lok-Kwan also uses Master Tung’s Miraculous Points and studied with Dr. Young Wei-Chieh, the foremost authority on the subject.
