I am a holistic health practitioner, offering Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine, and Chinese Nutritional Therapy healing modalities. I treat you as a whole person and address both (1) manifesting symptoms and (2) root causes of your health condition. I craft personalized treatments, so no one treatment is the same even for two people with the same physical symptoms and the same Western Medicine disease diagnosis.
I foster practitioner-client partnership, within which the client is viewed as an ultimate expert on his/her health and is being guided by the practitioner towards "deeply tuning in to one's body" to discover the root causes of a disease. In addition to disease treatment, I focus on prevention, health maintenance and your overall well-being.

O.M. (NCCAOM) is nationally certified as a Diplomate of Oriental Medicine. She is a licensed acupuncturist and a certified practitioner of Chinese Herbal Medicine in the State of New Jersey. Olga received her Master's Degree in Oriental Medicine from the Maryland University of Integrative Health. She is also a certified qigong and yoga instructor, and a champion of Chinese nutritional therapy.
The World Health Organization and the National Institutes of Health now recognize acupuncture to be effective for over 43 common disorders [1,2,3]. The following list is not meant to be exhaustive but rather is intended to give you some ideas about common health conditions acupuncture can treat. Acupuncture is holistic and can be effective for many other conditions via physiological mechanisms the Western science has yet to explain.
Chinese Herbal Medicine is a highly sophisticated and comprehensive system of healing that has been effectively used for thousands of years. Unlike Western medications that on many occasions reduce symptoms without being able to address the underlying causes of disease, Chinese Herbal Medicine aims to treat both the manifesting symptoms and the underlying imbalances to restore the optimal functioning of the body.
Chinese Nutritional Therapy lies at the center of Chinese Medicine. San Simiao (581-682 AD), a famous Chinese Medicine doctor of the Tang dynasty, wrote in his book "Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold": "Before a doctor treats a disease, he must be sure of the cause and pathogenesis of the disease, then treat the patient with diet before using any medications."
I accept cash, check, or credit card payments at the time of service. I am also an in-network provider for the following major medical insurance companies: Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, and UnitedHealthcare. I will process your claims directly if you have acupuncture coverage from the above listed insurance providers.

If you're here to see if accupuncture works...let me tell you. IT WORKS!!!
I am a 30 year old male that has either stayed away from doctors or has always been a bit tough when it came to pains or injuries. About a year ago I started to feel a discomfort on my lower back that progressively got worse to the point where I gave in and had an xray and an MRI done. Unfortunately doctors found nothing. They gave me an esteroid shot that did absolutely nothing for me, instead I think the pain was worse. I was sent to physical therapy which to my surprise they had me doing dead lift saying that it was

I decided to seek out acupuncture for a number of different reasons, including trouble sleeping, chronic migraines, and lower back pain. In my first meeting with Olga, she took her time getting to know me, my lifestyle, and my health concerns. Each meeting thereafter, she was incredibly diligent in tracking my progress, and making adjustments accordingly. She's a kind, compassionate professional who you can tell really just wants to help people feel better and find peace. Highly recommend!

I have been seeing Olga for over two years now for neck, back, and hip problems along with TMJ and any day to day aches or strains. My neck and back pain was becoming borderline debilitating and consuming my day to day thoughts. With Olga's help my quality of life has been restored and my pain has ultimately subsided. I continue with weekly visits to keep my problems at bay and stop any new pains from progressing.
She lets you fully explain how you are feeling without being dismissive and I truly feel heard. Olga is so patient and friendly, my appointments are something I look forward to in my

I’ve been going to Olga for awhile now and am so happy with the results. I went to a different acupuncturist before seeing Olga and the difference was night and day. Olga really performs a thorough assessment of you and different areas of your body/life that may need improving. We looked at my sleep habits, diet, digestion, pain and stress even though my purpose for seeing her was my fertility. It helped tremendously. She helped me to be healthier overall so that I could prepare for pregnancy. Fertility is one of her specialties and she is very good at providing treatments for all issues related

Olga is a kind and compassionate listener and a gifted practitioner of acupuncture. I saw her for relief from some neural damage in my foot as well as for tinnitus. She helped to significantly relieve the numbness in my foot and eliminate my tinnitus. She also helped me to address some underlying emotion issues that were complicating the situation. I am very grateful for her help, her professionalism, and her compassion.

I started seeing Olga this past winter during the third trimester of my second pregnancy -- she was recommended by my midwife. For more than 10 years I have suffered from temporomandibular joint dysfunction, which causes headaches, jaw and neck pain. It was worse during pregnancy, along with all the other aches and pains I had, and Olga's treatments worked wonders. I am continuing to see her now as my body recovers and takes on the daily grind of parenting two little ones! Olga is also friendly and easy to talk with, and she takes care of insurance payments and makes it simple for me to make co
