Was suffering with back and knee pain. Also had difficulty sleeping and lack of energy. After the first treatment, I got the best sleep in my life and felt less pain immediately. Therefore, I got a package deal and will continue to heal myself naturally.

So happy with my treatment experience today! Since missing a few months, I am grateful to be back. It's been quite awhile since I felt sooooo relaxed! I will not be missing acupuncture from Johanne anytime soon. She is phenomenal!!! I appreciate the good results I have been enjoying for the past two years!

After throwing my back out and barely being able to walk for 24 hours I did a google search to see if there was a community acupuncture clinic nearby. I was so thrilled to find Harlem Chi. I've had great success with acupuncture in the past, but it can be pricey and I'm currently on a limited income. Not only is the pricing incredible here, everything else is, too. It's a warm and welcoming environment, and the treatment was superb with a marked relief in pain after the first treatment. A

I have been coming to Johanne for about 2.5 years and it has been a blessing to have found her practice. I have been working with her for infertility, stress, various aches and pains and she just works her magic and it has been a relief! The community environment is peaceful and respectful. I have been to other acupuncturists before - but with her it's significantly different and I highly recommend if you are considering a visit.

I simply cannot sing Johanne’s praises and thank-yous highly enough. She has taken care of me through very frustrating, challenging, multifaceted, chronic illness...through the worst of it...even when my moods aren’t good... she has even helped me avoid coming down with this or that bout of things. She has helped so many of us afford consistent care. She has refused to charge me for large chunks of her precious time. The herbs she gives have been obviously helpful at least 80/90% of the time (despite the difficult to treat highly variable patterns inherent to Lyme/chronic fatigue...). She correctly guessed the Epstein-Barr viral component—then also helped encourage me to get reevaluated medically—after many years of discouraging medical experiences (both at walk-ins and by my former doctor who I later found out was writing me off as “anxious”??!) Johannes is virtually the only place I can walk in and be ~certain that when I walk out—the aching-all-over or fatigue or feverishness or cramping and pulling or all of the above will calm down. Her needling is so “on point” I can often instantly feel it in distal but referred/related parts of my body (eg, foot points in the head or torso, or arm/wrist points thru my back/leg...). She has spent cumulatively HOuRS calmly explaining and elucidating TCM for me (yes, after all these years I’m a student too...). She’s often been the ONE person that in my most run-down, estranged from myself moments—the ones ~no one even best intentioned friends understand?—who I can depend on to see (better than me!) where I’m at; for me to not feel alone at my literally weakest moments. She’s helped to ground me—both w the needling and sometimes just w her very presence (esp since I come so late so often...). But above all? She has given me hope—and a raw, un-sugar coated kick in the butt of reality that has already helped immensely to guide my healing/life. I may be a science geek, but ultimately the life we live is our medicine, and all medicine is soul medicine. Johanne lives this—patiently, devotedly—every day. She is nothing less than a community treasure.

I'm generally healthy, but I'm over 70 and I must deal with the aches and pains that come with age, plus the occasional cold. I've been a regular at Harlem Chi for years and Johanne has cured or at least alleviated almost every woe I have had, including muscle and skeletal aches, heartburn, anxiety and the symptoms of a bad cold. Not to mention that she is the warmest and most understanding healthcare provider I have ever had. I would give her more than five stars if I could.

I have been seeing Johanne for about two months now for chronic pain management and support with my emotional wellbeing and am feeling much better than before my initial consult. I notice a palpable difference in my body, mind, and spirit when I prioritize my healing through modalities like acupuncture. The space itself is conveniently located and offers a peaceful, airy,plant-filled escape from the hectic city right outside. I highly recommend seeing Johanne and giving community healing a try!

I’ve had a great experience at Harlem Chi. Johanne has such warmth and is so attentive. I’ve appreciated being in a community practice as that creates a greater sense of healing than in a one-on-one setting. I can identify clear improvement to my injuries at the end of the sessions, which allows me to continue PT and other treatment with greater success. I’ve noticed a shift in mood and processing of trauma as well. I’m grateful for this practice!

Took a shot and am so glad I did. I have allergies, shoulders/neck aches, lower back spasms, heart flutters, and depression/anxiety. I felt a huge difference right after the session, which continued till the following day. Johanne is friendly and thorough, and they charge such a reasonable price! I realized it was my suppressed emotions that caused my heart flutters (came to me when lying on the bed). That discovery alone was worth the session. The session didn't feel rushed at all.

Harlem Chi Community is a sanctuary for the body , mind and spirit. Every practitioner is committed to the healing arts and respectful of the client. The reasonable price point makes self-care more doable. I will continue to support its mission

My experience was wonderful. Johanne was easy to speak with and she took the time to understand the reason for my first visit. The treatment was thorough and very effective. I believe that she genuinely cares and wants the treatment to reflect that. It has.

A wonderful Zen-like setting where the practitioner listened to my needs and addressed them. A gem in the heart of Harlem.
