I've been to one of those oriental medicine places, I mean the ones that have you take herbs and the like. Does anyone know of one that speaks English? I went to one that speaks Korean, and he gave me a box full of liquid that helped me health-wise. What is out there for us expats?

Thanks.....

A,

I don't know what part of town you are in, but I know of a good Oriental doctor in Dongdaemun. A few weeks ago I injured my arm and I've been going to his clinic. While he isn't perfectly fluent, I understand him. The first time I went with my wife and she encouraged him to speak to me in English and since then he has tried very hard to do that.

If you want a referral, please PM me and I'll try to describe how to get there.

Are we talking about a person who deals with herbs and Chinese style medicine? That's what I am looking for.

I checked with my wife and she says he does. I've been getting acupuncture there for my arm because of problems with the muscle.
