Integrative Healing Arts Acupuncture, P.C.

Integrative Healing Arts Acupuncture, P.C. IHA offers holistic acupuncture & Chinese medicine in NYC for pain, fertility, and women’s health. Its ancient roots can be traced to China.

Acupuncture is a powerful form of healing and part of a system of healthcare practices dating back more than 5000 years. The foundation of this form of medicine is based on the ancient Taoist principles of Yin and Yang, the transformation of energies within the body as well as external environment to achieve balance. Acupuncture uses the application of needles to stimulate various points on meridians on the body that facilitate the movement of Qi also known as “life force”. Stimulating these points helps bring the body into balance by activating and supporting the immune system thereby increasing the body’s ability to heal itself. This is also known as homeostasis.

“You are not running out of time — you are in rhythm with it.”

I recently joined Adrienne Irizarry, host of the Reproductive Rebel Podcast, for a deep conversation about fertility, intuition, and the myth of the ticking clock.

We discussed how fertility isn’t just about age or test results — it’s about your energy, stress, and emotional balance.

In this episode, we cover:
✨ The truth behind the “biological clock”
🌿 How lifestyle and mindset impact reproductive health
💫 How Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) helps you reconnect with your body’s natural rhythm

Save this post for a reminder: your body’s wisdom is timeless and message me for the link to the full episode!

Breathe easy this fall 🍁 In TCM, autumn is Lung season—prime time to strengthen your respiratory health and immune defenses.

If you’re getting hit with allergies, post-nasal drip, or that lingering “change-of-season” fatigue, your system may need support.

Acupuncture helps regulate inflammation, open the chest/sinuses, and strengthen Wei Qi (your body’s front‑line defense). Pair it with warm, moistening foods (think ginger pear compote, soups, broths), and gentle breath work to keep things moving.

Curious about the wisdom of the Five Elements and how it connects to modern science?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Five Elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—offer a framework for understanding how energy flows through nature and our bodies.

But what does science have to say about this ancient theory? 🤔

👉 Check out this Healthline article that explores the Five Elements from a modern perspective, including how they show up in personality, health, and balance. Read here: https://www.healthline.com/health/mind-body/what-are-the-five-elements

Do you see yourself in one of these elements? Which one feels most like you right now? 🌱🔥🌍⚪💧

Brain fog + low energy this fall?

In TCM that often points to Spleen/Lung imbalance—especially after stress, irregular meals, or poor sleep.
sleep architecture, and clear “dampness” (that heavy, hazy feeling).

Add warm breakfasts, short daylight walks, and acupressure (ST36 + Yin Tang) for momentum.

✨ The Five Elements

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, everything in nature—including our bodies—moves in cycles of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. 🌿🔥🌍⚪💧

Each element is tied to a season, an organ system, and even a taste. When one element is out of balance, it can ripple through the rest.

🌸 Spring – Wood: Liver/Gallbladder, Sour
☀️ Summer – Fire: Heart/Small Intestine, Bitter
🍂 Autumn – Earth: Stomach/Spleen, Sweet
🍁 Fall – Metal: Lung/Large Intestine, Spicy/Pungent
❄️ Winter – Water: Kidney/Bladder, Salty

Understanding this cycle helps us restore balance, boost health, and flow with the seasons.

Which element do you feel most connected to right now?

A 5‑minute night ritual your skin will *feel* by morning:
-Warm tea + slow breaths (2 minutes) to switch off stress mode
-Yin Tang + Heart 7 acupressure (1–2 minutes) for deeper sleep
-Oil massage: gentle upward strokes for lymph flow (1 minute)
-Screens off 30–60 minutes before bed (true collagen support 😉)

Skincare isn’t only what you put *on*—it’s how you help your body restore from the inside out.

Fall can be tough on skin—cool air outside, dry heat inside. In TCM we treat the *cause*, not just the surface.

Facial acupuncture supports circulation, collagen, and lymph flow (hello, de‑puff!). Pair it with Yin‑nourishing foods, a real wind‑down routine, and simple acupressure (Yin Tang + Heart 7) for deeper sleep—the ultimate “beauty treatment.”
