Dr. Joni first discovered acupuncture as a patient herself. In 1986, she
visited a Chinatown acupuncturist who didn't speak English, but certainly
knew how to treat menstrual cramps. She left her first treatment not only
without pain but also profoundly changed by the experience. She discovered
that a school on Oahu was beginning a new semester and she qualified for
admission having already completed a pre-med program. She began classes in
Oriental Medicine three weeks after her first acupuncture treatment.
Dr.Kroll graduated with honors from the Oriental Medical Institute in
Honolulu, HI and opened her practice in 1989.
She is board certified in acupuncture orthopedics and a Diplomate of the
National successfully treated over a thousand adults and children for
allergies and asthma. She also specializes in the treatment of pregnant
women, infertility, and menopause. She is a past president of the Hawaii
Acupuncture Association, a member of the American Association of Oriental
Medicine and the National Sports Acupuncture Association.
In addition to sharing clinic space with her associate, Ginger Akuna, she also
shares the clinic with her hsuband, Dr. Douglas Kroll, D. C. and her brother
Gordon Spencer, a licensed massage therapist. Dr. Joni is the mother of two
active boys, Eric and Even, one active puppy, two cats, and tanks of fish.
