My shoulder pain was GONE after treatment and she is incredibly knowledgeable.

HMVerified patient

Overall an excellent experience. Kristin was very professional and attentive to the needs of my personal situation. The treatment was effective in reducing my muscle tension and inflammation around the jaw. Would highly recommend to anyone suffering from pain and tension caused by TMJ or similar issues.

CFVerified patient

I’ve been seeing Kristin Cheng for half a year for acupuncture, and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s very knowledgeable and always takes the time to really listen to where the issue is. My body pain has improved significantly since starting treatment :)

AMVVerified patient

Kristin Cheng is amazing. She listens and is eager to help find a solution with her treatments. I was referred to her after I had a tendon replacement on my thumb. Apparently my body did not respond well to the surgery developing severe scar tissues. My thumb seemed to have as if a literal rock. After almost 3 months of O.T and no progress on my thumb, the rest of my hand/fingers were affected as well, I had lost 70% of mobility and able to flex. All this mostly provoked by all the scarr tissue making it impossible to have mobility. I was then referred to Kristin. Once I started Accupuncture treatments the rock on my finger (gathered scar tissue) began to dissipate. I continue Accupuncture and herbal treatments with Kristin. I am so grateful for her, her knowledge and dedication. I highly recommend her.

GMVerified patient

Couldn’t recommend Kristin enough. She is kind, knowledgeable and put me at ease throughout the whole experience as someone new to acupuncture. I went to her for about 10 sessions (focused primarily on my knees, hips and lower back), and I noticed a significant decrease in tension, discomfort and inflammation. She listened to my concerns, and we revised my care plan along the way. Not to mention the space itself is warm and peaceful. Overall, Kristin’s care and skill speaks for itself, and I would absolutely return next time I need it!

FIVerified patient

I had an awesome experience with a practice!

KDVerified patient

My whole experience at Gotham Holistic was extremely calm and soothing, just what I needed! Kristin listened carefully to my issues during the consult, and then during our first session I got to try a bit of electrical stimulation along with the needles, which to my relief didn’t hurt one bit (just felt very strange, haha)!! The whole time I was able to relax and meditate on a comfy heated bed, and afterwards felt so rejuvenated, like after a terrific massage! I cannot wait for my next session, I think this is going to be so helpful for me. Highly recommend!

SPVerified patient

I highly recommend Kristin and Gotham Holistic. I’ve been seeing her for a few months and I am consistently impressed by her kind demeanor and focus on my pain management and overall quality of life. She really listens to my current symptoms - I started seeing her for hip/back pain. My quality of life has greatly improved since receiving her services.

KNVerified patient

I highly recommend Kristin and her practice. I’ve been dealing with hip/back pain for several months and had tried several other pain management options prior to finding Kristin. I am so thankful to have located her and her healing services. Kristin always listens to my symptoms and makes me feel heard. She also offers holistic advice to support the acupuncture services. My quality of life has greatly improved since using her services.

KNVerified patient

Wonderful, knowledgeable practitioner

JEVerified patient

I have struggled with ankle pain for several years as a result of an injury that did not fully heal entirely. My orthopedic is recommending surgery as a last result, but I wanted to give acupuncture a try before going through with the surgical procedure. I appreciated the urgency with which Kristin was able to see me for my first visit, as well as her interest in accommodating my schedule to get several treatments in before my surgery is scheduled. My first visit was thorough but super-efficient, and the location is extremely convenient!

September 21, 2022Michael S.Verified patient

Helped accomplish my physical rehab objectives for my surgically repaired wrist. Kristin Cheng is caring, knowledgeable, professional, and explains all options for your particular case. In your first visit, you'll get a chance to explain what you are looking to get out of acupuncture, and Kristin will talk you through what her idea of a best plan for you is. Reason for visit: After having a surgical ganglion cyst removal off my wrist tendon and a broken bone in the same hand in 2021, I had developed wrist tendonitis in the winter. The tendonitis was a grinding pain whenever any pressure or weight was placed on the wrist. How the acupuncture was applied: special attention given to the named problem areas. In my case, since it appeared as though I had scar tissue holding up the healing of my wrist, I was given the option to try electro-acupuncture using safe low voltage electrodes on my wrist. They would produce soft but regular electric currents, which combined with the acupuncture, would help stimulate better blood flow and healing to the rehabbing joints. You can ask her to adjust the intensity of the current; they usually feel like a soft tapping. Result: After having the bone break in my hand in September, I'm now playing softball with no issues in April. I'm hitting with more power than I have in years, and I recently started pitching again with no problems either. I was curious to see if putting spin on the ball at the point of release would hurt my wrist at all -- it did not. I can hit, field, and pitch without any issue. There is still a slight weakness/pain at heavy pressure or weight, but it gets better day by day. I just have to not be stupid with this wrist for a while. The acupuncture and supplemental electrodes were never meant to completely fix the wrist, but they have ultimately been helpful in breaking up the scar tissue, and returning a sense of normalcy in dependability and strength to my wrist. Aside from my wrist, I've found acupuncture sessions to just be incredibly helpful for back pain, leg soreness, or even just general anxiety. I highly recommend trying it especially if your insurance gives you an affordable deal.

LOVerified patient

Due to work and life style, I developed chronic pain all over my back and hips... It didn't let me enjoy my daily life neither sleep restfully. After two months with Dr. Kristin ... her professional care and treatment (a combo of acupuncture sessions and Chinese herbs) my pain is gone and not coming back. She always listens to my concerns, recommends thoughtful tips to be included in my routine, and goes the extra mile explaining the fascinating details behind her knowledge. I'm happy I met her. I'm recommending her practice to colleagues and friends.

MEVerified patient

Kristin asked great questions on my first visit, listened to my concerns, and did a quick physical exam on my first visit. I can tell she really listens to both me and my body, and is adaptable to what I need each visit while still keeping the overall goal in mind.

PWVerified patient

My experience with Kristin has been wonderful. She is an excellent practitioner, warm and empathic, and I have benefited in numerous ways since I began seeing her. She’s helped me tremendously in all my health goals. I highly recommend!

LGVerified patient

Kristin has been a pleasure to work with, and I have thoroughly enjoyed my first experience with acupuncture with her. She has listened intently to my needs and checks in before every session. She is accommodating and easy to work with, and most importantly she's helped me feel more grounded and less anxious. I'd recommend seeing Kristin for your acupuncture needs.

IMVerified patient

The consultation with Kristin made me feel extremely comfortable moving forward with her treatment plan. I looked forward to every session and experienced positive results. During the treatment sessions I could relax and feel the tension and anxiety disappear. The sessions with Kristin were the best part of my days.

SBVerified patient

Kristen was great, I was able to tell her exactly where I was having pain and she was able to treat within a handful of sessions.

VDVerified patient

I've been going to Kristin Cheng, LAc for 3 years now, I highly recommend going to see her. She was highly attentive to me, my needs, and my comfort level. Quickly, I was put at ease by her attentive nature and able to be present when I did my first acupuncture consultation to the present day. I go here because Kristin Cheng, LAc is immensely skilled and so down to earth that I can digest her deep knowledge to make better health choices in my life.

JOVerified patient

Both the office and the acupuncturist are professional and what you hope to find. I'm being treated for chronic back pain and have had enough experience with acupuncture to know when it's right. I went to Kristen Chang because she's in my neighborhood, but she's worth traveling for.

SSVerified patient

I have been visiting Dr. Kristin for quite some time now after first meeting her for a consultation a few months ago. She was fantastic when we first met; and has somehow become even more fantastic! From our first meeting until now she has always been friendly, communicative, and very understanding of my needs. She asks the right questions the make sure she targets the areas in which you need to help relieve your pain. I am so so happy I chose to go to Dr. Kristin- she has helped me tremendously over the past few months and I couldn’t recommend her more!

NDVerified patient

Kristin is an incredible acupuncturist and healer. Her style is nurturing and gentle throughout the entire session. I highly recommend her care!

DWVerified patient

Kristin at Gotham Holistic is a wonderful professional who is focused on helping you manage pain and getting your body to work best for you. She is personally invested in your health and well-being and committed to working with you to get your body to where you'd like it to be. She is full of knowledge and looks to empower you to help your body heal As a lifelong athlete I am so grateful I have found Kristin to help me work through injuries and keep my body in top shape to continue to train at a high level.

LLVerified patient

I received acupuncture from Kristin for some upper back and shoulder pain and weakness that was keeping me from my exercise routine. She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and gentle in treating me and explaining what she was doing. Though I am squeamish around needles, Kristin made me feel at ease. My shoulder and back improved significantly and I am now back to my usual exercises!

BRVerified patient

I received acupuncture from Kristin for some nagging hip pain that I had been dealing with for quite a while. My hip feels a lot better after starting treatment with her. I am now able to resume prior activities that the pain made it difficult to do and have a greater sense of well being. Kristin is highly recommended.

DFVerified patient

Kristin was so helpful and knowledgeable when I sought treatment for my chronic back pain. She listened to me carefully and addressed all of my concerns to be sure I felt as comfortable as possible during treatment sessions—highly recommend!!

KKVerified patient

Suffering from PCOS, I had difficulties getting pregnant. Dr. Cheng helped me to become the mother I always wanted to be. We are grateful for our beautiful daughter, acupuncture helped me throughout my pregnancy as well.

JHVerified patient

I’m a hula dancer so put a lot of pressure on my feet and knees. Acupuncture has helped so much to keep me dancing. I love Dr. Cheng and her office is always clean.

RLVerified patient

Kristin is Amazing! During the PAUSE I definitely overdid the home exercise thing to save my sanity. Unfortunately my right shoulder paid the price. Even though it was screaming at me, I was hesitant to see anyone about it. My co-worker highly recommended Kristin, and after much of her insistence. Mostly because she was tired of me complaining on Zoom. I made an appointment. Turns out, Kristin made me really comfortable. She gave me a plan, helped me every step of the way, and she fixed my shoulder! Now I go see her for the occasional maintenance, and happily owe my coworker a drink when all this craziness is done.
