“I've had neck pain for around two years and resorted to heating pads & massages. A coworker described having similar pain & recommended Alyssa. The first visit alone relieved so much tension & pain. I had in my neck & upper back area. After three or four visits I can turn to look over my shoulder! I continued to schedule visits for anxiety & stress. I feel calmer & more put together emotionally reccommend acupuncture with Alyssa. She listens & addresses concerns seamlessly. Her calm & confident presence adds to the experience. ”

After years of painful periods, PMS symptoms, frequent headaches & heartburn, I turned to acupuncture because I did not want to constantly take medication. I feel like Alyssa truly listens to my symptoms and concerns, and tailors her care specifically to my needs. After about 3 months of seeing Alyssa, I experience little to no symptoms that previously used me constant pain and/or discomfort. If I do experience symptoms I know exactly what causes it because we've figured out my triggers together. I finally feel like I have a better quality of life.

Acupuncture at North Nassau acupuncture has been incredibly effective in helping me manage everyday stress and enhance my overall performance in life. My acupuncturist, Alyssa Barba, has been invaluable in guiding my treatments. In a western world where Chinese medicine is often misunderstood, Alyssa does an exceptional job of explaining how its application foster balance & promote a deeper awareness of my health & well-being. She goes beyond just acupuncture , taking the time to truly understand each patient's unique needs. This allows her to not only address balances but also to uncover & address the root causes behind them. Her holistic approach has made a significant difference my healing journey. Alyssa takes immense satisfaction when she helps her patients, clients making her the ideal healer.

Last winter, I came to Alyssa to be treated for anxiety and really awful panic attacks that weren't improving or being managed by medications. After just a few sessions, my panic attacks were gone & I haven't experienced one since seeing Alyssa on a weekly basis. During our appointments I have also treated sports injuries, digestion issues, asthma, insomnia, & menstruation symptoms, which all improved greatly/stay well managed after each visit.

I have to take this time to express my gratitude for the opportunity try Acupuncture. I didn't know much about it. I've experienced awful migranes for the past few years. 6 months ago I tried acupuncture w/ Alyssa Barba. From the start she was informative, professional & caring. Since Ive been going to acupuncture regularly my migranes have lessened in frequency & intensity. This journey has been so positive that I wanted to share it. Acupuncture is great. Thank you, Alyssa.

If you’re expecting to use your insurance here, don’t bother. They won’t run it through your insurance even if they say they will.

Very nice experience.

Dr. Alyssa Barba was waiting for us when we arrived. Her bedside manner was gentle, kind and empathetic. She took her time asking questions to gain a better insight regarding son's health challenges. She took her time explaining how the procedure would work and recommended other things we needed to change with my son's diet in conjunction with his treatment. Best medical visit ever.
