I’m Kim, owner and founder of Kim Foster Acupuncture.
I am a general practitioner of Chinese Medicine licensed by the Massachusetts Board of Medicine since 2008. I have been in clinical practice as an acupuncturist for over 15 years in Boston Massachusetts. I believe in education, awareness and approaching each person with a unique treatment for their condition.
I am passionate about being the best practitioner I can be and am constantly updating my skill set to bring you the most updated and current treatments for various conditions.
My unique blend of Japanese style abdominal palpation, Chinese and Japanese style acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, gua sha, electro acupuncture, dry needling, herbal medicine and clinical experience allows me to help many people that have not been able to get relief from other acupuncture styles and standard western medical care.
Because I do not take insurance I am not limited by the various techniques used in clinic. Your treatment is based on your individual symptoms and what I believe will give you the quickest results. Client’s generally see a change within 3 -6 sessions although it may take up to 12 to decrease or eliminate symptoms.
I look forward to meeting and working with you and sharing this amazing medicine.
