Will insurance cover treatment?

A greater number of insurance companies are covering acupuncture. Each health insurance plan is different but we will process your paperwork to ensure that you get the best coverage possible. Traditional Chinese Medicine is very flexible so treatment plans can be tailored to fit most budgets. Please schedule a consultation to discuss any special financial circumstances.
Flex Spending Account – Any acupuncture expense not covered by insurance can be paid using your flex spending account.
Motor Vehicle Accidents – If you have been in a motor vehicle accident and you have a valid No Fault insurance claim we can provide rehabilitation treatments at no cost.

How Do I Choose an Acupuncturist?
New York’s acupuncture law is one of the oldest in the United States. Licensed practice was established here in 1975. You should seek out a licensed acupuncturist trained in an ACAOM approved school who is nationally board certified by the NCCAOM. ACAOM approval insures a well rounded education of at least 3 years duration in both Chinese and Western medical theory including a minimum of 700 clinical hours.

Most medical doctors and chiropractors who practice acupuncture have only 150-200 hours of total training. While their western medical background may provide additional benefits, they are not versed in the subtleties of TCM. Be sure to ask about their background and experience. Finally, choose someone you feel comfortable with, who will answers your questions, and willingly communicates expectations and feedback.
I've had Anxiety my entire life. It comes and goes, but when it comes it's almost unbearable. I started my acupuncture treatments with Amityville Wellness September 2015 and I am still regularly going. My Anxiety stays at bay most of the time which means it is better than ever before. My next step may be trying some herbs to mix into my treatment! Wish me luck! Thanks again Amityville Wellness, you've made my life much easier.
-PA, December 2015
I had a serious case of vertigo for about a month. I was unable to exercise and going to work was difficult. I was dizzy most of the day; I had numbing sensations in my head and arms. I also had no energy at all and also no desire to do anything. I went to several doctors including an ENT, nothing helped. Dr. Hurme began treatment (acupuncture) and the symptoms improved dramatically after 2 weeks. I saw her twice a week and after 3 weeks most of my symptoms are gone. I am now able to go to the gym again and more importantly I am also feeling well enough to resume all my activities again. My energy level is back to normal. All other treatments did not work.
