Because of an excruciating lower back pain, I could barely walk when I went to Harlem Chi Acupuncture. After 1 long and deeply relaxing session, I left virtually pain free. I was able to take a transatlantic flight the next day.

My first visit to the Harlem Chi Community found me mildly curious about what awaited. I received reflexology massage, thai massage and a reiki session by three knowledgeable, gentle respectful practitioners. You have managed to create a sacred space which I will incorporate into my life on a regular basis. I have let my friends know of this gem. I look forward to accupuncture and herbal medicine treatments.

It's so wonderful to have a place for acupuncture right in the heart of Harlem. Johanne is a caring and sincere wellness practitioner who really takes time with you. I always feel better and uplifted after her treatments.

Like many others, the idea of Acupuncture terrified me. But desperate for relief and wellness I came to Johanne and she was very comforting and skilled. She was able to touch pressure points that I didn't even know where there! I am looking forward to continuing my care with her.

Johanne and her acupuncture skills helped me yet again. I came in with fatigue, chest and sinus issues and an aching neck. At the end of the treatment I felt rested and was breathing easy again! Just wonderful stuff, and I will keep going back!

Harlem Chi is a wonderful resource in the neighborhood. Johanne is a skilled practitioner, warm and attentive, and I really appreciate how she has created a space that offers many resources for healing and empowerment - acupuncture "happy hour," massage and reiki, qi gong classes. I am getting a course of treatments to regulate my menses and I definitely feel how the treatments have started to address the imbalances in my body. I always leave treatments feeling deeply rested.

I went for my first visit to Harlem Chi Community Acupuncture last week and it was a fantastic experience. The space is welcoming and calming. Johanne is a blessing. The primary purpose of my visit was to address some digestive issues. Since the appointment a few days ago my digestion has been the best it has been in a long, long time. I feel that the treatment has given me a greater sense of balance physically and emotionally and I am grateful that Johanne is in the community.

Love all of my treatments at Harlem Chi! Johanne is such a source of calm and wisdom. Love the space and how rested and rejuvenated I feel after each treatment. Came in yesterday with congestion and a monster headache. After 45 minutes of rest my headache was gone and I was breathing easier. So grateful to have such a gem in our community.

I had no expectations that acupuncture would do me any good, but I felt better after the very first session and have gotten a big benefit out of weekly treatments, including very useful advice about nutrition.

I'm so thrilled to have been introduced to Johanne and Harlem Chi. The communal setup of the acupuncture room makes treatments affordable, and Johanne has that magic touch of a practitioner who really knows and cares about Chinese medicine. I'll be back!

I am so happy that I found Harlem Chi! The pain associated with spinal stenosis and chronic arthritis had taken their Toll on my mobility; prescription drugs Were not helping. Acupuncture treatments have eased the pain to the extent that I can walk, exercise, dance,etc. Plus I didn't have to travel downtown from my Morningside Heights neighborhood. Ms.Joanne is a professional and the service and comfort provided by Harlem Chi has really improved my quality of life.

I love the ease of making an appointment, the Saturday hours, the clean and pleasant atmosphere and the professionalism. I came in for post nasal drip and have not had to take any medication for 2 days now-- I was taking several pills a day, and flushing with at neti pot, for weeks. I love that Harlem Chi isn't just about being "alternative" but about getting results.

I don't like needles. So I never tried acupuncture. I suffer from chronic neck pain and my roommate insisted that go to Harlem Chi Community Acupuncture -- it helped her greatly with her migraines. I had my first session this Saturday. The place is very zen. The session helped. My neck feels better and it also lessen stiffness and pain in my left leg. I barely felt the needles. For someone who always had a fear of needles that was priceless. I look forward to my next session.

Joanne is the only acupuncturist I've been to that I would take over a deep tissue massage! She understands your body's condition and physical ailments, and asks questions to understand what other emotional stressors or aggravators you may have going on in your life are contributing to tension in your body. As a workout fanatic and business person who travels a lot, Joanne's sessions help me maintain my sanity. Migraines and all! She touches my body without directly treating the area & cures me
