I discovered acupuncture after struggling with chronic pain, and it changed everything.
Book Appointment
Until I was 32, I dealt with daily tension headaches, neck pain, and insomnia. A friend gave me acupuncture, and it changed my life.
After 3 treatments, my blood pressure dropped from 170/90 to 120s/70s, my pain disappeared and my sleep drastically improved. After a few more weekly sessions, I was symptom-free.
The experience was so transformative, I made it my life's work. Today, I help others who've exhausted conventional treatments finally get relief.

"I have tried different kinds of specialist while looking for a solution for my back problems, and Joseph was finally able to alleviate my issue in 3 sessions. The space is very clean and tranquil. If you have insurance, it becomes a lot cheaper that a visit to a masseuse. Highly recommended."

"Joe is amazing!!! He specializes in neuro acupuncture and trigger point acupuncture using stim. I have been to several acupuncturists but Joe is the only one who has been able to get to the really deep muscle tension. Has been a game changer."
Alissa M
"Joseph provides excellent service with his acupuncture skills. He is knowledgeable with the human anatomy and knows how to incorporate other techniques like cupping, stretches, massage, and pressure point to help get reed of pain and tension in the problematic areas. I am somebody who is physically active with my job and workout 5 days/week. By receiving this kind of treatment regularly my body feels stronger, healthier, and I sleep better."

"I initially went to see Joe Hoots because of an arthritis flare up in my knee that was incredibly painful. I limped into his office in Williamsburg on a Monday afternoon and walked out almost pain free. Hoots is a wizard and I continue to see him for a myriad of issues. I am so grateful that when I googled “best acupuncture near me” he is the first name that came up. Strongly recommend"
