Have you ever wondered at your body's amazing ability to heal and repair itself? Broken bones mending, skin wounds healing, your body assimilating what it needs and letting go of what it does not? Listening and following the body's inner wisdom is at the root of all the holistic modalities. Acupuncture and polarity therapy help you reconnect with the healing source that is sometimes forgotten in the daily patterns of our modern lifestyle.
Services
The acupuncture session is usually one hour long, starting with intake, palpation of the pulse, and observation of the tongue. Followed by insertion of the acupuncture needles in specific points in the body. The needles are sterile, one times use, and they are much thinner than other types of needles.
During your treatment I might use any of these modalities depending on your personal condition at this moment in time. Use of herbal treatments in nourishing deficiencies, or moving and detoxing the excesses of the body. The Chinese herbal knowledge has been handed to us from more than ten thousand years ago.
Facial Rejuvenation at Heart Body Mind is a combination of facial Acupuncture, exfoliation with topical herbs and pearl powder, face and neck massage with Jade Stone, and Cranial balancing. Facial Acupuncture is a natural alternative or addition to face fillers for those who are trying to lessen or avoid the side effects of invasive treatments.
The Chinese herbal remedies have been in use prior to Acupuncture. In fact they are the basis for the main theories of Chinese Medicine. The herbs are organic maters, leaves, branches, roots, minerals, or animal parts that have been observed and used from the ancient times for their energetic properties as well as their chemical effects on our bodies.
I have worked for many years as a nurse in the New York City, mostly in Emergency, with rotations in Pediatric and Psychiatric, as well as NeoNatal ICU. I have seen people of all colors, social background and from elderly to new born. I have held people's hands when they were in their lowest times, and cried in joy with new mothers at their highest moments.

I have been seeing Maryam for 3 months for prenatal acupuncture and massage. Maryam has been making home visits due to COVID and my experience has been wonderful. First of all, the COVID related precautions Maryam is taking make me feel very safe. Maryam is extremely kind and knowledgable and I really enjoy my acupuncture sessions with her. I also think her massages are AMAZING. So glad I found her. Highly recommend!

I’ve been going to Maryam for about 3 months now and the results are amazing with a noticeable difference in my overall health. My energy level is increasing and my lingering symptoms from a diagnosed auto immune are almost insignificant. She’s created a true healing environment. A great listener, which then enables her to hone in on what needs healing and attention. Creating overall wellness...heart, body and mind. I also really appreciate the herbs and other alternative recommendations she’s made, they are additional tools on my healing journey. Thank you, Maryam.

I started seeing Maryam because of my symptoms caused by menopause, hot flashes, sleep issues and anxiety. After my first session my hot flashes decreased in frequency and intensity. Over the next 4 weeks my sleep and mood has improved. Maryam has used a combination of acupuncture, massage, herbs and cupping. I’m impressed with her knowledge and compassionate care and highly recommend her.

I have been seeing Dr. Wootan for the past six months. She is knowledgeable, professional, and has truly turned around the chronic seasonal allergies that I suffered from for decades. This spring, I have not experienced any sneezing, itching nose or eyes or cold-like symptoms at all as I had for many years previously. I am so grateful to have seen Dr. Wootan because I know it has made a difference in my quality of life. Thank you.

Nowadays, acupuncturists can be materialistic, just following the chart and system. But she definitely could feel what's going on my body energetically and carefully chose the points. She also did a treatment to balance energy and that helped other stuffs which I didn't expect(ex; eating habits). It was like a bonus!
