This practitioner is as good as you are going to get - one who loves his work, loves people, very experienced and knowledgeable, humble and calm. Best of all: He uses Japanese acupuncture style and needles which rarely, if ever, will cause any kind of discomfort. These needles are smaller and thinner than other kinds used in other types of acupuncture.
The room itself is an oasis of serenity - with soothing colors, decor, and plants. He also offers a little bit of acupressure while you are taking the treatment . His prices are competitive with what is out there.
He books up quickly so get your appointment in there! -

Daichan is awesome. I was seeing him for a while and I always felt great after our sessions. I felt like he was really helping my physical problems, unfortunately for me I discovered him to late as I moved out of Vancouver and back to NYC. Now that I'm back, I'm having a helluva time trying to find someone as good as him. I've had traditional Chinese acupuncture and I really prefer his technique using the Japanese needling method. He also gives an amazing shiatsu/back rub after. He's incredible and very kind and intuitive. I miss him!

I went to see Masamichi Shibata for acupuncture, and it was my first time going for acupuncture, and I am sold on it for its relaxing and restorative effects. The style of acupuncture done by Masamichi Shibata is Japanese acupuncture, which uses smaller, thinner needles than its Chinese counterpart, so it is a slightly less invasive experience. Additionally, Mr. Shibata also does shiatsu (Japanese form of massage derived from Traditional Chinese Medicine), and the combination of the two is very soothing and powerful. While I won't say that acupuncture cured my insomnia, I really did enjoy my sessions with Mr. Shibata. He's very professional, maintains a very tidy, well-kept office, and he's quite perceptive. I feel comfortable recommending him to anyone who is open to this type of treatment.
