About us
Welcome to BKacupuncture Clinic.
My name is Sunhwa Kang (go by Sun) a Licensed acupuncturist in the United States.
I originally studied Physical Therapy in South Korea, where I obtained my license and worked as a Physical Therapist. After completing internships at University Hospital and an Industrial Accident Medical Center, I served as a Teaching Assistant in the College’s Physical Therapy Department. I also gained extensive experience treating a diverse range of patients in Orthopedic and Rehabilitation Clinics, specializing in Musculoskeletal disorders.
After coming to the USA, I developed a deep interest in Traditional Oriental Medicine. This passion led me to study both Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, earning a Master of Science in Oriental Medicine and a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition, ultimately obtaining my license.
Currently, I'm working with Dr.BK (MD, Orthopeic surgen, LAc), treating a wide range of musculoskeletal patients. My background in physical therapy, combined with hands-on experience in patient care, has been invaluable in integrating acupuncture and herbal medicine -not only for effective musculoskeletal pain management but also for overall wellness.
I look forward to helping you on your journey to better health.
Thank you

I,Dr. BK was a spine surgeon as an orthopedic surgeon in South Korea. My speciality was low back surgery including microscopic lumbar discectomy, posterior decompression for spinal stenosis and posterior decompression with posterior lumbar interbody fusion(PLIF) for spondylolisthesis.
I started acupuncture for the unsatisfied patients after spine surgery in Seoul. Korea. That was much more helpful to reduce pain than the ordinary physical therapy.
I came to the United States to become an orthopedic surgeon again over 16 years ago. I got an ECFMG certificate and passed all medical board exams, USMLE I, II and III. But it did not work because it was so much competitive to admit to an orthopedic residency program that was required. I gave up to be a surgeon here and got an acupuncture license to practice in Wisconsin.
I has been practicing acupuncture in this clinic in New Berlin since May 2009 and I am treating orthopedic pain only such as muscle, joints and nerve pain.
I apply acupuncture based on the orthopedic knowledge and experiences with traditional Chinese medicine and believe that would be more understandable and very successful.
Thank you
