FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your first visit

Does acupuncture hurt?

Most people are pleasantly surprised by how gentle acupuncture is. The needles are hair-thin — far finer than needles used for injections. You may feel a slight sensation when a needle is inserted, but most patients find the treatment deeply relaxing. Many even fall asleep during their sessions!

What conditions does Kristin treat?

Gotham Integrative Acupuncture treats a wide range of conditions including chronic and acute pain (back, neck, shoulder, knee, sciatica), stress and anxiety, fertility and reproductive health, women's health (PMS, PCOS, menopause), sleep disorders, digestive issues, headaches and migraines, and general wellness. Your complimentary consultation is the best way to discuss your specific situation.

How many sessions will I need?

This varies by person and condition. We start with a personalized treatment plan during your complimentary consultation, which outlines the recommended frequency and total number of sessions for your goals. Many patients notice meaningful improvement within the first few sessions, while chronic conditions may benefit from a longer course of care.

Do you accept insurance?

We are an out-of-network provider for all insurance policies that include an acupuncture benefit. We do not bill insurance directly, but we do provide detailed superbills (receipts) that you can submit to your insurance plan for potential reimbursement. We can also verify your out-of-network acupuncture benefit as a courtesy. FSA and HSA cards are accepted for payment.

Where are you located?

We are located at 39 W 14th St, Suite 502, New York, NY 10011 — near Union Square, easily accessible from the Flatiron, Chelsea, and Greenwich Village neighborhoods. Multiple subway lines stop nearby.

What is the complimentary consultation?

All new patients start with a complimentary in-person consultation with Kristin. During this visit, she will review your health history, discuss your primary concerns and health goals, and determine the best treatment plan for you. You will have the option to get started with treatment right away, but there is absolutely no obligation to do so.

What techniques does Kristin use?

Kristin is trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine (acupuncture and Chinese herbology), Neurofunctional Acupuncture, and Electroacupuncture Medicine. She has advanced training in fertility acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. This combination of time-tested and cutting-edge techniques allows for more targeted, effective treatments.

What are your treatment prices?

Acupuncture sessions start at $175 for a single visit. Discounted package options are available: a 10-pack is $1,500 ($150/session), a 20-pack is $2,800 ($140/session), and a 30-pack is $3,600 ($120/session). All new patients start with a complimentary consultation at no charge.
