Having first set up shop on the High Street all the way back in 2008, Ginseng Tang Acupuncture Clinic has undoubtedly earned its place as a much loved Kings Heath staple. But what is it that keeps locals coming back, time and time again?
Karen Li is quick to credit an inclusive and open-minded local community with helping her to establish traditional medicine as an effective treatment option here in Kings Heath. After a lifetime spent working as an acupuncturist, Karen has cultivated a loyal customer base, largely owing to her extensive knowledge and technical skill in identifying the body’s various pressure points. But Karen’s expertise doesn’t end there. Ensuring that each session is tailored to the individual needs of her client, Karen also offers a wide range of herbal remedies, the health benefits of which can be manifold.
Speaking to Karen at her new premises on Station Road, alongside The Little Rest Treatment Room, her dedication to the simultaneous practice of traditional and modern medicine is striking. She affirms that it is often when multiple forms of medical therapy are allowed to operate in harmony with one another that the root of the problem is properly addressed. The results are conclusive: working in conjunction with modern healthcare, Karen has been able to resolve a variety of complicated cases such as fertility problems, bodily aches, skin conditions and respiratory issues (including those brought about by long Covid). Indeed, as she strives to further her understanding of other debilitating, yet prevalent, health issues like IBS, Karen is not afraid to adapt her approach, ensuring her continued success in a fast-evolving world.
Favourite Kings Heath business(es)?
Kid (and dog!) friendly, York Road is a firm favourite for Karen and her family. She also loves to show her support for other independent businesses in the area, with a special mention going to the wonderful Chai-RA Coffee and Levain and Cherry.
