Acupuncture in NYC with 27 years of experience
Personalized, full-body treatment for pain, stress, and chronic conditions
Naomi Takazawa Welch, M.S. L.Ac. was trained in Japan and the U.S., offering both full-body acupuncture and AcuSerene Facial Acupuncture.
Whole-Body Balance
Treatment focuses on how the body functions as an integrated system—not just where symptoms appear.
By addressing coordination across the body, treatment helps reduce pain, improve movement, and support overall stability.
Acupuncture (Full-Body Treatment)
Treatment focuses on how the body functions as an integrated system—not just where symptoms appear.
By addressing coordination across the body, treatment supports relief from pain, improved sleep, hormonal balance, and overall regulation of internal function.
AcuSerene® Facial Acupuncture (Full-Body + Facial Focus)
A full-body treatment with a focused approach to facial balance.
By addressing underlying neuromuscular and structural patterns, treatment helps improve symmetry, tone, and natural expression, particularly for those concerned with facial asymmetry.
A Traditional Approach
Japanese acupuncture is grounded in a practical, results-oriented approach, adapting techniques as needed—including electrical stimulation—to support effective outcomes.
Each session is adjusted in real time based on how your body responds, allowing for precise, targeted changes in both structural and internal patterns.
The Power of Touch
Treatment works through the surface, engaging the skin as a highly responsive interface with the nervous system.
This allows for subtle but effective changes in both physical and internal function using minimal stimulation.
Subtle Stimulation
Techniques are gentle, controlled, and highly specific.
This approach allows for effective treatment while minimizing discomfort, supporting both physical and internal balance.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion uses controlled heat to regulate muscle tone, circulation, and internal function.
This technique is applied selectively to support recovery, regulate internal conditions, and restore balance.

My sessions with Naomi were always greeted with a friendly smile and Naomi’s attentiveness to my needs. Naomi always made sure I was comfortable at the beginning, middle, and end of our sessions.
