I love Joannie! Even just stepping into the office is so relaxing, it smells great and there is tea and water while you wait. She has such a great personality- a perfect balance between being a great listener, saying the right things, and being genuinely caring. She explains everything she's doing before she does it and always tries to make sure you're comfortable. I was usually so comfortable that I would even fall asleep. She would also try various forms of therapy which I loved. After we moved out of the area I've tried a few other acupuncturists and have stopped going because

Joannie is great. She really is client service oriented. She listens to your concerns and is a fantastic acupuncturist. I've been going to her for about a year for reasons such and ear pain, colds and flu, and overall health and I would recommend her to all my friends. Go see her and I promise you'll be happy that you did.

I had double knee surgery last year and while Physical Therapy helped, I was still feeling pain a year later. My doctor suggested I try acupuncture treatment, but I had never done. Referred by a friend, I found that Joannie provided extraordinary one on one treatment as she only works on one patient at a time. As I was a bit nervous on my first time, Joannie first sat down with me to get full background on my medical history. Once complete, she explained the process and discussed additional options such as cupping and using electronic therapy. With her skillful treatment, she has helped me

I've been seeing Joannie for a couple of years for anything from injuries from running and biking to gastrointestinal issues. She always diligent with her diagnosis and consulting and has a calm demeanor. She always checks in with my comfort level as I don't always 'enjoy' the needles. I'm usually so comfortable I take a nap while the needles do their thing. She has also prescribed me with some herbs drinks that cleaned me out in a good way and helped to get my insides in order along with her acupuncture services.
Don't forget that acupuncture isn't like a pill

Joannie is truly fantastic. I was recommended to her by personal referral a few years ago for help with stress and stomach issues. Not only did she make me feel super comfortable, but she also took an extensive history and asked me some questions that brought out other issues I'd been experiencing. With a combination of herbs and acupuncture, she had me feeling better in no time! I recently began seeing her again for other issues, and once again she has been amazing. My current issue was resolved in just a few days, and it was something I'd been suffering with for weeks!

I'm over 35 so considered high risk in terms of pregnancy. I went to Joannie almost weekly during my pregnancy just to promote general health and ease some of the discomfort. I'm not a fan of needles but she immediately puts you at ease and you almost forget you have needles all over. Most times I would even fall asleep and just wake up feeling refreshed. After my delivery, I had a somewhat painful and long recovery but Joannie helped relieve some of the post partum issues as well. I'd strongly recommend her and I have to several friends who have all raved about her.

Joannie is excellent. It was my first try of accupuncture and I'm now a convert. Very chilled manner, makes you feel relaxed before the session. Just the right amount of chattiness. She talks you through the treatment and your issues (e.g. digestion and/or aches and pains). The process is painless and relaxing. I've fallen asleep many a time. Would totally recommend. I am feeling the benefits after 6 months of seeing Joannie - less backache and better pooping abilities. A good price too, great value.

I was terrified of needles and never believed in Accupuncture but after meeting Joannie and doing a few sessions, I am not only a believer- I have also referred 6 of my friends to her who are currently patients as well. Joannie has a unique calming quality. She genuinely cares about her patients and always goes above and beyond. When you walk in, you immediately leave the hussle and bussle behind and have an hour that is just you. Accupuncture has helped me focus and has alleviated my stress, back pain, and cramps. If you are interested in Accupuncture, I recommend Joannie fully.

Joannie is absolutely wonderful and since my first visit a few months ago, I've recommended her to a few people. I was dealing with several health issues late last year and went to her on a friend's recommendation -- consistently positive results for me right from the first session. She's very knowledgable, thorough, attentive and yes, gentle, with those needles.

I never really believed in Acupuncture before but Joannie completely changed my mind. I would highly recommend Joannie, she is kind and gentle and walks you through everything she will be doing and the benefits you may get out of it. Her treatment environment is completely relaxing (and clean and professional too!) and conveniently located! Joannie is attentive, and flexible and most importantly, effective!

Accupunture is always something I've been terrified of but because of all the benefits I've heard about it, I decided to try it out. Joannie Wu at Remedy NYC really knows how to make you feel at ease while she goes to work on you. With gentle hands, I can feel the blood flowing more freely in my body once she's finished. You can't do accupunture just once. You have to go for a a series for it to be truly effective and so far, it's worked wonders on my aches in my back and neck. Thanks Joannie and Remedy NYC :)
