About this clinic
Activation Clinic, a regenerative medicine practice in Honolulu, offers shockwave therapy, peptide therapy, and anti-aging protocols. The clinic emphasizes shockwave therapy as a noninvasive regenerative modality for musculoskeletal injuries and chronic pain, supporting tissue repair through enhanced blood circulation and stimulation of the body's own healing response. Peptide therapy is integrated into individualized treatment plans to address age-related decline and functional optimization. Treatments are sequenced according to each patient's clinical presentation and health goals, positioning the clinic as an alternative to purely pharmaceutical or surgical approaches for patients seeking regenerative options.
I have been suffering with lower chronic back pains for the better part of 10+ years, tried everything from chiropractics, medication, all of it.
I saw the ad for Activation Clinic and thought “Why not?”
I met with Dr. Cho who was very compassionate and a great listener, he suggested Shockwave Therapy with EMTT, by the second session, I noticed significant relief on my back!
It’s been about 2 months that I’ve been receiving treatment. I can finally say I feel GREAT!
Better sleep, and most importantly, I’m not reaching for the pain medications anymore!
I’m so grateful that I was able to find a caring and compassionate doctor.
Activation Clinic cared about my well-being and always celebrated my improvements.
Appointments are always on time and convenient. I would highly recommend Activation Clinic to anyone.

If I could, I would give this clinic 10 stars! This was a 4 year ordeal for me and Dr. Cho took care of it. I had been dealing with shoulder pain (rotator cuff tear) and got surgery. Sadly, it scarred up and barely improved even after 3 months of physical therapy. My good friend told me to come to see Dr. Cho since she had a great experience with her Achilles. Instead, went to a chiropractor who did softwave on me. He said it was the same thing Dr. Cho did. It was NOT. I spent so much time and money at the chiropractor office and also acupuncture and I wasn't feeling much relief. Again, my friend encouraged me to see Dr. Cho at Activation Clinic. After 6 treatments of Shockwave and ElectoMagnetic transduction therapy. I am playing pickle ball again, gardening again, and enjoying life again without pain. My only regret is not seeing Dr. Cho sooner.

Dr. Cho is very knowledgeable and professional. It was fairly easy to make an appointment. I am at that age when things "down there" start going downhill. I did not like relying on pills. I was nervous coming to the office, but Dr. Cho was very understanding and easy to talk to. Thanks to the treatments, things are going uphill. It really has helped my confidence as an older guy on the dating scene.

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Cho and Activation Clinic. I tore my MCL and was looking for an alternative to an invasive procedure. Saw their spot on TV and decided to give Activation Clinic a call. Dr. Cho recommended their EMTT(Electromagnetic Transduction Therapy) and I went for treatment. The initial procedure was painless and I immediately felt an improvement upon leaving their clinic. I went back for 5 follow up treatments and am really pleased that my knee is 100% healed. I highly recommend!

Dr. Cho successfully treated my BPH issue using ESWT (shockwave) a couple of years ago. Since my system cannot tolerate the BPH drugs or herbal supplements, I noticed the symptoms returning as the prostate will tend to enlarge over time. Fortunately, Dr. Cho was able to provide a maintenance treatment before my recent trip which made it so much more enjoyable not having to spend time hunting for bathrooms in a foreign country!
