Chinese Medicine of Idaho | Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine Clinic

I’ve been a patient now for over a year, and I really enjoy getting acupuncture after being very apprehensive at the start! (I had a couple negative experiences at a different clinic in Boise, but wanted to try acupuncture again elsewhere.) I’ve had improvement with my neck pain and neuropathy in my feet. Sean is attentive and works to address the areas you’re having problems with. I really like the gua sha that Sean utilizes to help with my neck pain and trap muscles. I’ll keep coming back!

I’ve been seeing Sean Dugan at Chinese Medicine of Idaho for acupuncture for the past year, and the experience has been consistently excellent. He is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to thoroughly understand what’s going on before beginning treatment. His approach is thoughtful and tailored to my specific needs, and he has successfully helped me manage and improve several different ailments over the course of the year. Sean’s professionalism and genuine care for his patients really set him apart. He explains each step of the process clearly, answers all questions and creates a calm, comfortable environment during every session. I always leave feeling better, both physically and mentally. I highly recommend Sean and Chinese Medicine of Idaho.

Sean is fantastic. I saw him regularly for acupuncture + herbal support over the course of 2025 and he helped me through some tough stretches. I'd been dealing with lots of muscle and joint pain, depression & anxiety, and sleep issues. His consistent, intuitive care was deeply supportive. My mood noticeably improved after a few sessions and he was able to help me more with my chronic jaw and back pain than any other practitioner l've seen in my several years of acupuncture. He's not only a highly skilled practitioner, but a genuinely kind and cool human. Can't recommend him and his herbal protocols enough. The Zen blend in particular was amazing for mood support and general wellbeing. And the office itself is calm, therapeutic, and welcoming. Go see Sean!

I have suffered for 7 months with pain from an over use injury deep in my buttocks. After failing to get any relief with western medicine I turned to acupuncture. I started in another town but had to be in Boise for three weeks. I did not want to interrupt my treatment so I searched Google and found Sean. Sean's knowledge and skill far surpasses my other practitioner. His knowledge of herbal medicine is exceptional. I am not fully recovered yet but I am finally making progress and have hope again. I am confident that with continued acupuncture combined with herbal supplements I will regain my ability to resume a normal lifestyle and live with much less pain or none at all.

Sean does a really good job of helping me optimize my health and I very much appreciate all he has done for me. I feel like he listens, genuinely cares and he explains things simply and clearly. Since starting my acupuncture sessions and herbal treatments I’ve noticed a big improvement in my quality of life and I would not hesitate to recommend CMI and Sean Dugan
