I had been wanting to try acupuncture for years and had not gotten around to it so I was pleased to know I could have my first experience right in the heart of Harlem. Johanna is a professional and caring practitioner and I felt at ease with her immediately. The insomnia I had been experiencing is gradually going away and I have also noticed improvements in other areas I needed addressed. I intend on continuing on with acupuncture even after my issues are resolved. I highly recommend HCCA!

Harlem Chi is a wonderful space of healing in the middle of Harlem, a wonderful contrast to the dehumanizing treatment patients often receive from doctors trained in the medical industrial complex.

I have been receiving acupuncture off and on from various providers for the past 20 years and I must say that the results from Harlem Chi for my knee pain and sleep pattern have improved greatly. I will be continuing.

My lower back pain was completely relieved. I felt physically lighter and emotionally uplifted. The pain in my upper right shoulder joint socket also felt better. The acupuncturist Diana was attentive, gentle, thoroughly professional. The price was affordable. Making an appointment really easy. The facility conveniently located, clean, quiet and comfortable.

Harlem Chi's service, location and owner, Joanne are OUTSTANDING. More than that, the level of knowledge and skill of the acupuncture itself is TOP NOTCH. Don't let the word "community" fool you in to believing this is an average offering. This is THE BEST acupuncture you can get in NYC at any price. It is a bonus that the price is affordable. It is a comfortable and peaceful place to get well internally as you rest and relax.

I had been looking for a black-owned acupuncture business in NYC for a while. I was so happy to find Harlem Chi! I have seen such great results with acupuncture here. The facility is clean and Joann is very sweet and listens to every concern that you may have. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

This was my first experience with acupuncture, and I was very happy with it. Johanne was great about explaining everything and I felt much better walking out the door than when I came in. A day later I have even less pain. I will definitely be back and recommend Harlem Chi. Thanks Johanne and Harlem Chi.

I was treated yesterday at Harlem Acupuncture. My knee has hurt for at least a year as I walk around sidewalks of NYC even though I wear shoes to minimize pain. After my session yesterday the pain was gone!

I have endometriosis in my femoral and sciatic nerves; this causes cyclical nerve pain in both legs most months mid-cycle. After two endometriosis surgeries, my actual cycles are much better but the leg pain was getting worse. Oxycodone was the only medication that would touch the pain and I didn't want to need that every month. I came to see Johanne in the middle of a flareup in mid-July and I left that session with much less pain. I continued to come for weekly sessions. The next month when the pain arrived the flareup was much shorter (3 days down from 12) and the pain levels stayed mangeable. So far the pain hasn't come back but I know if it does I can come in for a session that will work much more quickly and effectively than popping a pill. Johanne is amazing; we are now working on long term hormonal balance. I get very anxious before my sessions as my treatment points are very sensitive and the needles sometimes hurt. Joanne is very compassionate and always helps me breathe through it and I know that I'm in good hands.

Went in for my first visit and got Johana who was absolutely amazing. She was attentive and asked all the important questions to help me. She worked magic with the accupuncture needles and before my session ended, I knew I would be returning and would be bidding adieu to my old acupuncturist.

A caring and simple practice of acupuncture by this very sensitive woman! I had an instant mood changing, mind changing experience which I highly recommend to you. It could be a game changer for people sunk in suffering either from depression, grief from the loss of a loved one, or even your everyday physical aches and pains! It really revived my focus on my wellness program of self care.

I am so grateful to have found Harlem Chi. I thought about acupuncture many times through the years but never made any real effort to try it. That was until I started having body aches and pain. From my wrist to my back to my shoulder and neck -- the pains just got worse. A trusted friend --who gets acupuncture treatments-- suggested I try it and this time I listened. He actually suggested Harlem Chi because I live in Harlem. I am really happy he did. Starting with my very first session I felt relief pretty much immediately. The only that has ever relieve my pain in this way is powerful pain medication. I am thrilled that I now have a new way to treat my ailments without medication. I go on a sorta regular basis and it is always a wonderful experience. Joanne is amazing! She really listens, is effective and thorough and I feel completely comfortable. The space is tranquil, the location is easy to get to and find. I highly recommend Harlem Chi. I believe you will be glad that you did. It is amazing how much better I feel after my acupuncture sessions. Again I am very grateful and thank Joanne and Harlem Chi for helping me get my life and body back to normal. RC
