Acupuncturists near Lincolndale, NY

I am a Nationally Board Certified (NCCAOM) acupuncturist licensed in New York and Connecticut. I maintain my practice in Mahopac NY. I provide general, preventative and lifestyle acupuncture for all ages (from newborns to seniors).

I'd like people to know that I can treat more than one issue in a session and that most problems will be better within 3 visits. I have had much success with clients with low back pain and those experiencing stress and anxiety. People suffering with migraines or cluster headaches have had total relief for months at a time. I like to do gua sha on clients with colds or bronchitis as I have seen some great results with this technique. If you suffer from side effects from medications, I have a detox treatment that will decrease your symptoms.

Hello, My name is Yoonyoung and I am a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. Acupuncture is based on the idea that a patient’s pain or illness is caused by interruption to the flow of Qi (one’s life energy) in the body. Acupuncture identifies the specific points on the body that corresponds to the condition (acupuncture points) and uses special needles to stimulate those points so that the patient can regain the healthy flow of Qi. As a Chinese medicine practitioner, I view any illness in the context of the whole person. My treatment goes beyond the obvious symptom to the root cause of the illness.

Combining my experience of over 20 years as an Occupational Therapist, along with eleven years now as an Acupuncturist, I bring a compassionate, trauma informed study and hands on body wisdom to your treatment. The utilization of this palpatory approach provides diagnosis as well as an instant measure of treatment effectiveness, which you will realize in real time. Both Western and Traditional Eastern medicine have their respective strengths and weaknesses. It is my belief, when they are appropriately combined, the patient is well served.
