Many patients come to us after unsuccessful treatments elsewhere, still not getting lasting results.
In many cases, the problem is not only at the area of pain.
It may involve:
• nerve irritation or sensitivity
• deep muscle tension
• movement patterns and body mechanics
• long-term stress or internal imbalance
This is why symptoms often return.
At PhD Win Acupuncture Clinic, we focus on identifying the root cause and treating the body as a connected system — not just the symptoms.

Our approach
Our acupuncture treatment is designed to support both physical health and emotional balance.
We aim not only to relieve symptoms, but also to improve function, restore balance, and reduce recurrence.
Many of our patients come to us after other treatments have not worked well. In these cases, we often find the problem is not just local, but involves deeper patterns in the body.

Case Study | Severe Lumbar Disc Herniation — Functional Recovery with Conservative Treatment
A 40-year-old man with a long history of lumbar disc herniation developed an eight-month flare of back pain, leg pain and numbness into the lateral calf and dorsum of the foot. Although surgery had previously been discussed, he preferred conservative care. After four acupuncture treatments, the leg pain and numbness resolved and his mobility improved substantially.
Case Study | Kienböck’s Disease — A Rare Cause of Persistent Wrist Pain
A 29-year-old man had persistent wrist pain that failed to improve with medication and physiotherapy. As the pain worsened and wrist movement became restricted, further imaging revealed Kienböck’s Disease. This case highlights why persistent wrist pain should not always be treated as a simple sprain or overuse injury.
Case Study | Persistent Ankle Pain After a Fall — But the Problem Was Not the Ankle
After a fall, this patient was treated for an ankle sprain for two months but remained unable to walk normally. Imaging showed no fracture, and local treatment had little effect. Reassessment suggested a more proximal nerve-related source, and the pain reduced substantially after the first treatment.
