“Always a good experience, whether it’s for stress reduction or dealing with extreme pain. As a body worker for 20 years it’s easy to see that Dr. Marc has an unwavering standard of ethics and professionalism. His level of care and compassion, in addition to his expertise allows trust, confidence, security and respect from his patients.”

“I went to see Dr. Marc for a lower back pain that I have had for a year. I tried everything else first and nothing helped. After one visit to Dr. Marc my pain has almost gone away. I can’t wait for my next visit. I’m so happy I found him.”
-Christine M., Waipahu, HI

“I came in for a treatment on my wrist since I was experiencing some pains due to carpal tunnel and extensive usage of the computer during an extended visit to Honolulu. Marc assessed me by having me fill out a questionnaire and following up with some questions. He additionally discovered that I also experience insomnia from time to time and treated me for that as well. The entire experience was effortless and easy. I feel asleep for a good 20 minutes. I woke up feeling really relaxed and felt zero discomfort. I’ve been to other Chinese acupuncturists before and sometimes I find it hard to communicate with them since English is not their first language. Not only does Marc speak perfect English, he is really knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure I got the treatment I needed.
The office is peaceful and clean and easy to find. Another great bonus is that Acupuncture Arts validates parking across the street so it is free.
I would definitely recommend Marc at Acupuncture Arts to anyone that is looking for a great acupuncture experience in the Honolulu area.”

“I’ve had acupuncture from a number of different practitioners, in Honolulu, Toronto, and New York, and Marc is among the best I’ve experienced. He’s very good at considering your whole situation in terms of yin/yang and 5 Phases diagnosis, so he’s not treating the symptoms, but their underlying causes.
I’ve been getting treatments from Marc from the time that he was at the student clinic at the Institute for Clinical Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, a few blocks from his new offices. I just had my first treatment in his new space when I was back in Honolulu recently, and it was terrific – probably the nicest treatment space (in terms of being clean and quiet) that I’ve been to in town, and we had a good session.
Another great thing about his new clinic is that he’s working with an herbalist with decades of experience, so together they can prescribe very sophisticated formulae. Highly recommended.
Also, as someone else mentioned, you can get validated for free parking, so you don’t have to worry about that (which is sometimes a pain in Chinatown).”

I have seen Marc for several months now and am very pleased with his service. He is very professional and knowledgeable, as well as caring about your health. He works to address all your concerns, even some you might not be aware of. He is conveniently located and offers validated parking across the street. I have seen noticeable results over these months and highly recommend him.

I am a 4th year acupuncture student and Mother of 3. For weeks, I have had pain in my back and an over all feeling of lethargy. I have recieved many acupuncture treatments in the past, but, I must say that the treatment that I recieved from Marc was one of the best treatments I have ever recieved. If you go to see Marc, ask for the front and back treatment. It is well worth the time and money. Less than 24 hours after my treatment, I am thinking clearer, more positive about life and have an over all sense of well being. I highly recommend this treatment for anyone who wants to step out of the clouds and clear out the cobwebs. Thanks Marc!!!

This was my first time coming here, and I was definitely hesitant as needles sometimes scare me (though I’ve done it once before).
I had never heard of this place and was recommended through an online coupon, so was hoping for the best.
It was a WONDERFUL experience.
I felt very comfortable, Marc was very warm and professional, and I definitely will be recommending to others (though want to keep this as its own best-kept secret). Looking forward to my next visit — it was very calming and I feel so much better afterwards…

Marc is absolutely amazing!! I went for a neck strain and a couple days after my treatment the pain was gone. Nothing happens overnight, but it truly works!

“Marc has a great positive energy about him and is very knowledgeable about energy, acupuncture and Chinese medicine. He is the type of person you want on your team; and, it is very clear that he cares about his clients by his compassionate care and always doing the right thing. He has guided me to help me with my chronic pain in my body and helped me to avoid surgery when I had a liver and gallbladder issues when no one could figure out what was going on Marc cured me.
Marc is truly gifted healer and can see people’s pain in their body and energetic field. I have chronic pain, fibromyalgia from severe car accidents and I feel myself in less chronic pain all over and just my general wellness has improved and now I sleep regularly.
He addresses all questions directly and honestly and takes the time to ensure you understand what is going on and provide education to the patients. I’ve been heading down the wrong road going to all kinds of medical doctors, devices, prescription medications only to find temporary relief and the problem return. After seeing Marc I have a new sense of understanding and change in my body. Marc is a fabulous acupuncturist and Chinese medicine doctor and I would recommend her to my closest family and friends. And I do! Check out Acupuncture Arts you won’t regret it.”
