Meet Kanako, Your Healing Ally

Kanako is a licensed acupuncturist in New York State. As a second-generation acupuncturist, she was deeply influenced by her powerful upbringing in both China and Japan. Acupuncture, Gua Sha (scraping), moxibustion, cupping, and herbal medicine have always been a part of her life.

 

Kanako holds a double bachelor’s degree in Economics and Chinese Medicine from Teikyo Heisei in Tokyo. She later earned her Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine from Tri-State College in New York, where she studied closely under Master Kiiko Matsumoto.

 

She also completed an internship at the affiliated hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and Orthopedics in Beijing, China.

 

Having trained in multiple countries and across various acupuncture styles, Kanako specializes in Kiiko Matsumoto Style (a gentle Japanese approach), Acupuncture Physical Medicine (which emphasizes trigger point therapy), and Traditional Chinese Medicine. She is also a certified cosmetic facial acupuncturist and is trained in sports acupuncture. In addition, she is a Level II Reiki practitioner.

These advanced and diverse trainings allow her to approach each patient’s unique needs with an integrative, thoughtful, and creative perspective.

Hana L,

I was tempted to gatekeep this for myself, but someone this gifted deserves to be shouted from the rooftops. Honestly, I rarely write reviews—this is only my second ever—but Kanako has been such a life-changing part of my health journey that I had to share.
PS: her new clinic is impeccably clean, peaceful, and thoughtfully maintained. As someone who’s extra-sensitive to energy and hygiene, that alone brings a huge sense of ease.
 
If you’ve tried everything and feel stuck—or even if you’re just curious—Kanako might just be the practitioner who shifts everything for you, like she did for me.

For many years, I have been a regular visitor to Kana's healing sanctuary. Her expertise has been invaluable in resolving my pain and boosting my energy. She is an expert in trigger points and Sports Medicine Acupuncture. More importantly, I now see her regularly for health maintenance, a testament to the importance of her services in maintaining my overall well-being. Kana's calming and serene energy is a balm to the soul, and her office, with its Zen-like ambiance, is a sanctuary of relaxation. The soothing facilities, including the bed and giant infrared light, add to the overall experience.

Kana is an amazing acupuncturist and healer! I have been a patient of hers for years and she has helped me in ways I never would’ve thought possible. I used to struggle with incredibly painful periods and suffered from really severe eczema all over my hands and legs, but thanks to her treatments my eczema cleared up completely and my period symptoms have become so much more manageable. She is so knowledgeable about the human body, so intuitive and is also just such a warm, joyful person to be around. You can tell she genuinely cares for all her patients. I cannot recommend her enough!!!

I would give Kanako 10 stars if I could! She’s performed MIRACLES on my lower back. It’s such a comfort knowing I found something that works for the pain and stiffness. I took my mom to Kanako after a rough shoulder surgery and she left with the biggest smile on her face. It was the most movement she’d had in months.

Kanako is so so so knowledgable about how the body works. I’ve learned so much from her and have been able to address so many health issues with acupuncture. She really, REALLY cares about the people she treats, and you feel that throughout.

And if you’re nervous about acupuncture - there isn’t a better person to try it with. Kanako is so understanding, and comfort is her top priority. She’s the best!!

Kanako is truly one of a kind. From the moment I step into her clinic, my body exhales — the space itself feels calming, grounding, and completely unique. She comes from a lineage of acupuncturists, and you can feel that depth of knowledge and intuition working through her hands.

I have never felt so deeply listened to and cared for by a practitioner. Kanako somehow knows exactly what I need, often before I can even articulate it myself. There is a kind of quiet magic in the way she works — subtle, powerful, and profoundly effective.

Since seeing her, I sleep better, my mood is lighter, my energy is steadier, and my body feels truly supported. There isn’t a single other acupuncturist in the city I would trust my care to. Kanako is incredibly gifted, and I feel so grateful to have found her.
