Acupuncture improves the body's functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites-commonly referred to as acupuncture points, or acupoints. The most common method used to stimulate acupoints is the insertion of fine, sterile needles into the skin. Pressure, heat, or electrical stimulation may further enhance the effects. Other acupoint stimulation techniques include: manual massage, moxibustion or heat therapy, cupping, and the application of topical herbal medicines and linaments.

Dr. Pi graduated in 1982 from the Traditional Chinese Medical University in China, and worked as a doctor in China for over ten years. In 1995, she opened a clinic in Queens and in 2004 moved to her current location in Wantagh. Dr. Pi's extensive research and clinical experience combine with her natural touch to enable her to achieve some extraordinary results.
Our Chinese acupressure therapists use hand techniques to manipulate the various acupressure points along meridians throughout the patient's body in order to stimulate and balance qi. Chinese herbal medicine is the worldis oldest type of continually practiced professional medicine, and is the primary therapeutic approach to improved health in China.
Acupuncture is a form of medicine practiced for over 4000 years. The basic principle of acupuncture, which is one modality of treatment of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), is to realign and rebalance the energy in the body. Just as a Chiropractor realigns and rebalances your skeletal system, and a massage therapist helps to realign and rebalance your muscular system, an acupuncturist realigns and rebalances the energy systems in your body. According to TCM, life-giving energy n qi (promounced icheei) n flows through our bodies in channels called meridians.
Acupuncture is one of the oldest most commonly used systems of healing in the world (see FAQ/What is acupuncture?). Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) holds that energy (called qi; pronounced icheei) flows through our bodies in channels called meridians. Disruption to the smooth flow of qi causes imbalance and ultimately problems with physical and/or mental well-being.

Of all my treatments for my sciatica, she helped me the best and then my husband started using her. As a matter of fact we are going there tonight again before we move out of the country.
