Acupuncture can treat a wide array of conditions. According to modern  scientific evidence, the stimulation of acupuncture points releases endorphins and other chemical neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters can decrease pain, reduce inflammation, strengthen the immune system and help our bodies fight infection.

Please contact us if you have questions. We will be glad to discuss your individual case.

TREATMENT: WHAT TO EXPECT

Dress comfortably. We recommend that you eat something light before your treatment.

Each session may last anywhere between 30-60 minutes.

Acupuncture is essentially painless. You may initially feel a tugging or pricking sensation, however; that feeling subsides quickly.

If any acupoint feels uncomfortable, a slight change of needle position or depth can instantly eliminate the discomfort.

TESTIMONIALS

"Having acupuncture with Susana was not only comfortable, simple and effective but it definitely pushed me to the next level in terms of my healing process. Coming in with a sprained ankle post-tendinitis and having acupuncture really created a significant shift in the way it felt to walk and move my foot. A calm environment and a beautiful explanation of what was happening and having her check in with how I was feeling really made all the difference in my experience. I've been to other acupuncturists and no one took the time to explain in such a caring way what I was experiencing. Susana is dynamic, kind and very serious about and good at what she does. Wonderful experience. I will definitely return.” -Raechel Teitelbaum

 

"I went to Susana with a burning sensation on my right knee after she suggested that acupuncture might help.  I had stopped exercising all together because of the pain and was a complete skeptic when I received my treatment.  After my treatment, I never experienced pain again.  I have been back to running for two years now.  Treatment was painless and oddly relaxing." (Male, 45)

"This is a miracle!",  referring to the full recovery of his foot drop condition after one treatment.  (Male, 90)

"I went to Susanna with extreme burning pain under the left scapula,  left Atlas joint (under the skull), extreme cold in the left inner elbow and weakness in the inner left wrist which buckled under constantly. The pain is gone after 2 treatments. The strength is coming back to the wrist."  (Female, 51)
