After 10 years of pain in my shoulder, hands, and back, receiving physical therapy and cortisone shots hasn't really helped my injuries. My primary care doctor recommended acupuncture instead and referred me to Dynamic Dao in Hilo. I love the welcoming and calming atmosphere as soon as you enter their place. I appreciate Asherʻs attention to detail in explaining why I have pain, how acupuncture works for me, how to heal my body with Chinese medicine, what foods I should eat that help balance my body, and showing me strengthe... read more

Aloha, I broke my back in 2018. Moved to the island in 2023. I first saw Asher early 2024. My back had seized up and I was having a hard time with mobility. He really helped with the pain and recovery. Since then he has helped create a personalized program for health and maintenance. I have had a few more episodes since then but they are decreasing in regularity and intensity. I really appreciate the total/whole wellness approach. Mahalo

I came to Dynamic Dao for breathing issues, sweating, knees and some back and shoulder problems. Asher was really helpful especially what he gave me for my breathing and sweats, which made a big difference in how I was feeling. He’s also very professional, understanding, and easy to work with, and you can tell he genuinely wants you to feel better. The cupping on my back and shoulders was very relieving, and even my knees felt really good afterward. I’m truly thankful for Asher and grateful for the results.

First, I want to state how meaningful it is to have access to compassionate and effective healthcare here on Hawaiʻi Island with Asher at Dynamic Dao. I have had severe Crohn's Disease since 2005 and was on IV treatment for 16 years (being in remission), until late 2025 when insurance decided to stop covering the medication for most patients. Within just 5 weeks of this forced stop, I went from living a physical and active lifestyle to being 90% bedridden. After weeks of trying to reach my doctor without response and no clea... read more

I have been to many acupuncturists, and upon my first appt with Asher I trusted him to just assess me and tell me what areas need "work". I tried to give him minimal information so he could pinpoint my needs, based on his intuition and knowledge. Let me tell you, Asher found every little issue I was aware of and more.. Just from the detailed intimate questions I've never been asked as far as diet, sleep schedule, stress levels, and even bowel movements, I knew he would have me tuned up in no time. He has been quite the lifes... read more
