Natural Qi Acupuncture

The team of practitioners at Natural Qi Acupuncture provide unparalleled care and support. Their combined decades of experience, complimented by their warm, welcoming personalities make for a comfortable and highly effective treatment experience. I cannot recommend acupuncture and Chinese Medicine enough, let alone by such talented and knowledgeable practitioners.

Melani is a complete and utter angel.
I’ve never met anyone with a more warm, caring, and peaceful nature — instantly looking at her upon my first appointment instilled me with a sense of ease and anticipation for the healing that was about to take place.
I was in a horrible and terrible physical and mental state when my mother first looked up acupuncture offices in New York City and saw that Melani was overwhelmingly recommended on a variety of social media and Google. She called her personally to give her some background on my situation and Melani expressed an interest and a conviction that she could help this stranger’s daughter despite never having met her and all other medical treatments appearing hopeless.
Right before I came to the city I started experiencing IBS symptoms due to anxiety, stress, possible adrenal fatigue, and general recovery from an eating disorder years ago that had left my body and mind in tatters. Nothing seemed to help: my family doctor tried and failed to treat me and didn’t even seem to know how to ease my pain and discomfort. I was constantly exhausted, dehydrated, and rapidly lost weight despite the massive amounts of food I was eating (I was starving at all hours of the day no matter when I ate.) My skin was dry and flaky, my eyes were dark and constantly red-​rimmed, and I generally felt dis-​eased, exhausted, and severely anxious about how nothing seemed to help. All my doctor could say was to take Immodium after every meal and try to sleep more!
I came to Melani in the absolute worst physical condition I’ve ever been in my entire life. I had one session a week, and within two weeks my constant diarrhea and bloating started drastically improving, along with my anxiety, sleep patterns, and energy. She listens — really listens — to any and all concerns and makes sure to get the broad picture of health before targeting immediate problems, working her patients into eventual and total health.
I’ve never experienced the depth of such care. I can’t believe where I am eight weeks later: digestively stable, at a healthy weight, and energized to continue on my path to total wellness.
I’ll forever be indebted to Melani, and I can’t recommend her enough as a miracle-​worker and trusted acupuncturist.

My experience with Melani at Natural Qi was wonderful! I originally went to Melani when first trying to conceive. When I had one irregular cycle, I sought help to regulate. Within the next month after treatment, everything went back to normal. Melani was so patient, caring, and helpful. She encouraged me to relax and enjoy the process of trying to have a baby. It was a fabulous experience and I would recommend it to anyone!
