Listen to our patients’ stories Acuworx Acupuncture Studio
“Acuworx is the best acupuncture studio I have been to! They helped me with an ankle sprain, a torn ligament in my thumb, TMJ, and back pain maintenance. They helped my wife with vertigo and pregnancy/post partum treatments. They are very accommodating; passionate about helping people feel better and Jersey City; and very friendly. Acuworx also has good hours.”
“The Space - First time doing acupuncture and after having read reviews, I chose Accuworx. The physical space is immaculate, warm, comforting and inviting. They have individual rooms, the most relaxing music and overall a great atmosphere. The Service - Not knowing what to expect, as it was my first time, I was pleasantly surprised. Panos, took great care in listening to my ailments and recommended cupping as well. Panos - Roll all that into one and in comes Panos! Panos is simply a great guy. Soft spoken, takes his time with you, always has a smile on his face and welcomes you like you are in his home. As a consumer, a place is only as good as the people who work it and Accuworx has it all!!!”
“Acuworx s is absolutely amazing. I was looking for an acupuncturist when I found Acuworx. I relied heavily on the reviews that were left by others. They were all spot on. It was my first time experimenting with acupuncture as a form of treatment for a stress fracture in my foot, shoulder injury, and work-related stress. I was nervous but my practitioner explained everything before starting. The session was relatively pain-free (maximum pain felt like a tiny mosquito bite). I saw results immediately. I should note that I had already seen a chiropractor and a orthopedic specialist for my injuries before Acuworx. They were unable to help with the pain. After one session with Panos, I felt better. I’ve been back four times and will continue to go to Acuworx. Additionally, the space is very clean, the ambiance is peaceful, and the staff is fantastic.”
