What We Do:

Personalized Life-Style Medicine - everyone gets a personalized treatment for their conditions. Acupuncture treatments are created-designed according to the diagnosis. For example: two patients with migraines may receive different treatments and herbs because the root cause may be different.

Holistic Health Care - we treat the whole person including their symptoms. We offer a complete Holistic health care system that is effective and natural.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) includes - Acupuncture, Chinese Herbs, Nutritional Guidance/Therapy, Lifestyle Coaching, Meditation, and Qi Gung. All these therapies bring the body into balance to heal itself.

Acupuncture awakens your healing energy to heal your body, mind, and spirit. When using the herbs in conjunction with Acupuncture, the effectiveness of both increases.

Morningside Acupuncture is an acupuncture practice situated in New York City (NYC) with offices found in the Upper West Side (UWS) and also Washington Heights neighborhoods.

We specialize in treating acute & chronic pain, sports injuries, as well as stress-related conditions.

Each therapy is individualized based on a comprehensive assessment and incorporates multiple styles of acupuncture (TCM, dry needling, trigger point release), electroacupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, guasha, as well as recommendations for Chinese herbs as needed.

Acupuncture is especially reliable for pain and physical manifestations of stress so we see things like back pain, neck pain, headaches, muscle tightness, fatigue, sleep issues, as well as digestive issues regularly.

In 8 years of practice I have mastered treating diverse health issues, specializing in acute and chronic pain relief, digestive issues, women's health (fertility and menstrual issues) anxiety, allergies, migraines, insomnia, and fatigue. I am persistent, caring, thorough, and my unwavering desire to heal my patients has 100% success! By incorporating a variety of effective modalities including acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, supplements, nutrition and herbs, my treatments offer immediate relief, long-lasting results, and a deeper understanding of the source of the issue. Therefore my patients may resolutely apply the wellness tools that I provide to strengthen their future health.
My expertise in the specialized Kiiko Style of Acupuncture, a holistic method of diagnosis and treatment, allows me to precisely pinpoint the root cause of a particular issue. This method, coupled with my expertise in Chinese medicine, allows me to relieve and resolve most any health ailment.
I offer uniquely effective pain-free treatments, and ongoing consultations including nutritional and lifestyle guidance. My confidence and knowledge will help alleviate your pain, heal what ails you, and bring balance to your life. You will leave my office feeling relaxed, renewed, and vibrantly healthy.
