De’Qi Health

Lida is awesome. I came to her after years of GERD — acid reflux and terrible stomach issues. I tried every other kind of care from traditional western to ayurvedic and found no real help. Through Lida’s nurturing care, I am finally free of the stomach pain and feeling much better.

Love Lida and her practice. She helps with my the maintenance of my body and issues that I have encountered with running and physical endurance. Love her.

I had been an off again on again patient of Lida’s for years. I used to always put way too much faith in Western medicine… And now De’Qi Health is the only place I will go for treatment. If I am sick or in need of a boost… I go to Lida first.
When I was trying to conceive a few years ago I had «unexplained infertility» (at age 33!) and after trying for almost a year, my OBGYN recommended a fertility specialist who immediately wanted to start a battery of tests and procedures… including IUI and probably IVF… my head was spinning.
Then I remembered Lida! I knew fertility was one of her specialties and I knew that working WITH my body was the only way to conceive naturally. At my very first session I instantly felt Lida’s energy flow through me. I know that sounds wild but she has a gift. She is an incredibly talented practitioner – and I am certain her energy alone can heal.
Lida prescribed herbs, a healthier diet and lifestyle, and I got pregnant less than two months later. It was amazing. AND not only did she help me to conceive… because of Lida’s treatments I had a healthy, comfortable, easy pregnancy… and an even easier labor and delivery. My labor was smooth and my recovery was a breeze.
I might be a little too spiritual but I feel like my healthy baby girl was gifted a bit of Lida’s energy through treatment! She is the happiest, most wonderful little baby with a warm glowing energy. (Lida’s energy.)
Do yourself a favor and make an appointment.

The first time I met Lida I cried my eyes out because I had been trying to conceive for a long time without success. She smiled at me. 6 months later I was pregnant.
For me, it is not only about her being a great acupuncturist, it is also about her loving manners, her deep wisdom, her intuition. I felt immediately supported. Her skillful hands and sweet guidance allowed me to trust the process and I ended up working with her throughout my entire pregnancy and postpartum too. I could not be more grateful that I met her!

De’Qi Health is the place to go if you really care about your life, your body and your soul. Doctors are trained to push medications, and their main issue is that they DO NOT LISTEN TO THE PATIENT. A patient knows his/​her body better than anyone else. With Lida, I not only found a healer, but I found a friend and someone I love dearly with all of my heart.
I had a wide array of issues in life. I had hayfever since I was a kid, and I was going through stress beyond words living with a sick husband who had end stage renal failure. I had given so much of my life, time, spirit and love to my husband, that I did not end of taking care of myself. I was losing my hair, I had so much stress it caused pain in different parts of my body and even the food I was consuming was all wrong. Lida showed me how I can take of my husband and take care of myself too. She taught me that if I don’t take care of myself, I will be useless to those I want to help.
I have referred so many people to see Lida because she is what at true human being is. Immediately in her presence you will feel light and happy. Her smile and face will light up the room and you will immediately feel like you’re in the best hands possible for your health, for your life. You can tell her anything and she will be there for you as a genuine person. The staff at De’Qi health is equally amazing. The office is very welcoming and relaxing. And the treatments really calm the mind.
Lida had definitely changed my life. Hayfever is thing of the past in my life. I used to have plantar facitas in my foot, and that’s gone (no more yearly injections in my foot), my hair is growing back, and I have been taking care of myself a lot more than I did before, and I truly could not have done it without Lida. But remember, you must give yourself credit too, because without your willingness, success is not possible.
I love you Lida and I endorse you as the best acupuncturist and healer New York City.

To say that Lida changed my life would be an understatement.
I never tried acupuncture before and I had a lot of preconceived notions about it. I quickly realized how wrong those ideas were and how the treatments go way deeper than the needles.
Lida worked with me on my fertility, balance, prenatal care, vitamins, and also heart body and soul work. Basically, a whole body experience!
Lida is my feminine guru! I’ve never felt healthier or more balanced in my life. Thanks to the supplements and treatments I never had one day of nausea or pain throughout my entire pregnancy. Lida also guided me on better nutritional options, in addition to being a great mommy resource.
Lida is knowledgeable, nurturing, and precise with her execution. Its not a one size fits all with her. It’s definitely a personalized experience and for me the results speak for themselves.
The office is clean, warm and super comfortable. The other team members are extremely helpful, very polite and prompt with returning emails and phone calls.
I’m grateful for the introduction to De’Qi Health and awesome service. I trust Lida and her team implicitly.

I’ve been receiving acupuncture for over 20 years, and I know quality healing work when I receive it. Lida and all of the practitioners I’ve seen at De’Qi health are magnificent. Under Lida’s care I reach a deep level of rest and relaxation that persists long after treatment, and keeps me balanced in the chaos of NYC. I recently started focusing on fertility and family planning, and it is so comforting to be in Lida’s care and to benefit from her knowledge, experience, and true feminine wisdom and intuition. I should also add that the treatment rooms are peaceful, beautifully appointed, and always the perfect temperature.

Lida changed my life. I was suffering from severe allergies for over 12 years before she started working with me. I was unable to sleep. I could not eat out with friends without getting up from the table several times to blow my nose. I had severe asthma and could not breathe. I had a nebulizer and took steroid inhalers. I had even gotten to a point where I was taking triple the dose of Zyrtec and Allegra all year round and it did not help me. When I consulted several doctors and allergists, they said there was nothing they could do for me. I was desperate and felt that I needed to try a different route if I wanted to be healed.
In our first session, Lida looked into my eyes, had me stick out my tongue and suggested some life style changes that would help alleviate my health concerns. With herbal medicine and acupuncture she was able to illuminate my symptoms and resolve my extremely complex health issues in the course of a year and half.
Today, I take no medication. I go in quarterly for a tune up and only take one herbal pill during peak allergy season. I am forever grateful to her for my health.

I am SO grateful for having been introduced to Lida. I knew I was meant to go to her before I even stepped foot in the door, since she came so highly recommended by so many friends. One friend refers to her as her «feminine guru» and that is NO exaggeration.
The first time I met Lida, she intently listened to the reasons for my visit, and gently eased me into accupuncture, which was my first experience with it. She guides me through each session with thoughtfulness and care, and I fully trust her intentions and intuition.
I have become so much more aware of my body and my energy and have so much gratitude for her. She has been so instrumental in putting me on a path of self care and love.
I feel so blessed that she is a part of my spiritual and pre-​natal journey and encourage anyone who is seeking how to best love and heal themselves, to see Lida.
Also, I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Daniel as well, who is beyond knowledgeable about the body and is so open to my many, many, many, MANY questions! The opportunity to work with not just one of them, but both, is truly a gift.

Lida Ahmady is a powerful yet gentle healer. She has brought me from down and out to fully engaged and joyful many times in my life. She has cured me of flus, viruses, pinched nerves, and Fibromyalgia and Epstein Barr. And takes away my self doubts and repressed anger and fear. She is magical! Do your self a huge favor and go take a rest from the stress and get reset. You will be healthier, wealthier, and wiser when you leave. I promise!
