Thanks Yelpers, I'm so glad I went to see Heidi! I will definitely return :)…read more I usually rely on acupuncture when I acquire strains or pains that don't respond to self-therapy (massage, ointment, rest). I don't like to take meds, so acupuncture is a great way to help my body heal itself. The difficulty is finding someone you like... Enter Heidi into my life! I recently had horrible lower back pain that wasn't attributable to any obvious injury... I was clearly overdue for some maintenance. Luckily, Heidi emailed me back immediately and booked me at her Union Square location! She performed this technique that was new to me (it made my muscles dance:), and I felt so much better when I left. Heidi is experienced and I was very comfortable under her care, mentally and physically, which is huge!! She's so personable, it would be great if all PCPs could be like her :) Considering how much NYers pay for massage therapy and haircuts, the price is reasonable. There may also be discounts for multiple visits. If you're looking for an acupuncturist in NY or Brooklyn, get in touch with Heidi.

I was referred to Heidi by a friend after suffering a concussion this summer. I had debilitating…read moreheadaches and nerve pain that made my head feel like it was being "buzzed" by electricity constantly. I was desperate to get some relief as nothing was working. I had never experienced an acupuncture treatment, but understood the concept. My initial visit to Heidi started with a complete review of my overall general health and what was troubling me. I had no idea at the time that Heidi had worked with athletes, so a concussion was something she was very well aware of. After my first treatment, my headache and buzzing dropped from a 10 to a 3 within a few days. Each day I felt better. The second treatment a week later really helped more and within another week, the headaches and buzzing were completely gone. Such relief! Knowing that my body was receptive to acupuncture, I asked her if she would be willing to work on an old leg injury. She promised nothing, but said it would be worth a try. I injured my IT band 7 years ago in a fall. As a result of the fall, I ended up with a hip replacement as well. Over the next 6 sessions which started out weekly and then moved to every other week - then every 3 weeks, I could actually feel a major shift and change in the way my leg was healing. Not only did Heidi provide acupuncture, she also employed Gua Sha (a form of Chinese medicine). This brought amazing changes to the scar tissue that had formed in my leg from the injury and surgery. To my amazement, the constant ache in my leg began to lessen. It's now to the point where I can play golf without pain. I've even begun to play almost every day without having to take an Advil or ice my leg. From agnostic to believer, I better understand just how quickly acupuncture can resolve an issue in the body. For me, it was nothing short of a miracle. As a practitioner, Heidi is kind and thoughtful. A ready listener and educator on the practice. I can recommend her for A+ work and ethics. Thanks, Heidi for your gift of healing.

I came to Dr. Bier four years ago with an MPN blood cancer, and an immune system, digestive system,…read moreand respiratory system that were destroyed by an oral chemo drug. He set up a comprehensive, unique health plan for me (diet, supplements, exercise, and lifestyle) and I've stayed with it because I feel repaired and well- and there are no nasty side effects with this protocol! Dr. Bier always listens carefully and respects my views. He takes care of me in a holistic sense (mind, body, and spirit) and gets to the root cause of whatever ails me. Not only has he kept my blood cancer from progressing, but he has aptly addressed other health concerns such as osteoporosis, spinal alignment, and severe headaches over the last four years. All of this leaves me feeling very well! Thank you, Dr. Bier and HNNH Team!!

Dr. Bier is knowledgable and expensive. I appreciate the services he offers that are hard to find…read moreelsewhere and the out-of-the-box thinking about treatments. He is also quite frank, which may be off-putting to some but is appreciated if you want the possibly grim truth about your condition without being given false hope. However, if you are coming to him as someone who has received a fatal diagnosis, as my family member did, you will find his services dwindle as the patient does. And what I mean by that is the distinct impression that he will not be making money off of the patient after a certain point and becomes hard to reach when the going gets tough. He seems to give plenty of attention when you are still healthy enough to keep paying, but if you are terminal he tries to milk it up front. As my family member declined, he pawned us off on his staff instead of giving the direct attention he did in the beginning. But if you can afford the high cost of his care and are not terminal it's probably worth trying him out.
