NY PAPA Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine Center

Specialties

At New York PAPA Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine, we have deliberately focused our practice and treatments on an effective, seamless blend of both Western medicine and ancient forms of Eastern techniques. From Chinese herbal medicines and acupuncture to highly-​advanced and revolutionary PEMF (pulse electromagnetic field) applications, we can treat a wide variety of ailments with the precision and efficiency of a technological scientist and the wisdom and care of an Oriental master.

Our holistic methods allow us to specialize in several different techniques, each with a primary focus on pain management, especially in the neck and back, where most people report a constant soreness caused by everyday stressors. We also encourage healthy weight loss through noninvasive and natural means, such as herbal regimens and blood and body stimulation through Pulsecam technology.

To ensure that our clients are comfortable and receiving exactly the treatments they require, we make strides to do as much «in-​house» as possible. To this end, we have our own herbal dispensary in our clinic. We are proud to say that few medical offices in Long Island, and perhaps the country, can make this claim.

History

Established in 2011.

When we established New York PAPA Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine, we knew that we wanted to be different than any other treatment facility in the world. Not only were we envisioning a place where new-​age methods embraced and coexisted with old-​world techniques, but we were also thinking about how we treated our clients. Too many people speak of doctors and practitioners who seem distant and impersonal; we knew had to do all we could to make our clients feel like family, and we believe we have succeeded in doing just that since day one.

Part of our success is surely owed to our personal and professional philosophies, which are centered on Zhong Shan’s Medical Teachings. While there are many points to these beliefs, they are centered on the idea that the physician cares for, relaxes, and uplifts the people who come to his practice for aid. We know when you work with us, you will quickly discover that we have embraced these teachings.
