I always have a great experience at every appointment. From the moment I arrive, Johanna is always so welcoming and genuinely does everything she can to make me feel comfortable throughout each treatment. Who knew being treated for shoulder and back pain, would also leave me with a wonderful sense of calm and relaxation after. I truly look forward to every appointment and highly recommend Johanna and her practice!![]()

I’ve been seeing Johanna Parisi at The AcuLounge for about two months and have had a great experience. From the very start, she conducted a thorough virtual intake interview and took time to understand my personal needs in detail. Since then, she continues to ask thoughtful questions, listens carefully and offers valuable advise. Because Johanna offers such a wide range of services she can always customize each session based on how I feel that day. She never makes me feel rushed or like I’m getting a generic treatment. The front desk/waiting room and all four treatment rooms are beautiful, with so many interesting and inspiring things to look at throughout the space. I always leave feeling relaxed and well cared for and I’ve noticed improvements in my symptoms with continued visits. Oh, one more thing… it’s a big plus that she accepts my insurance, allowing me to make acupuncture part of my regular self-care routine. I’m grateful to have found Johanna and would highly recommend her practice to anyone seeking personalized, attentive care in a beautiful space.![]()

I came to see Johanna when I was in excruciating pain. I strength train, run, bike and parent. I could barely walk because of how bad it felt which then affected my posture. Johanna treated me 1x-2x per week. The relief with cupping felt incredible, she also treated me with acupuncture which was successful. I improved within weeks because of the therapies, care and information she provided!![]()

Love my experience at the Acu Lounge. Had never tried acupuncture before, but after a consultation with Johanna, I was ready and eager to give it a try!

Johanna at The Acu Lounge has been treating me for 6 weeks. I went to Johanna seeking relief from chronic pain, numbness and inflammation caused by cervical spinal stenosis. I have experienced not only an improvement in my symptoms but also better sleep! Before seeing Johanna I used to wake up multiple times during the night due to my pain. Now, I sleep through the night! My body is also much more relaxed due to my sessions with Johanna. She spends time listening to how I am feeling and adjusts her treatments to fit what I need. Johanna is easy to talk to and makes me feel at ease. I highly recommend Johanna and The Acu Lounge!
Owner's reply

Thank you Johanna for an amazing experience! I started coming for chronic headaches and neck/upper back pain. I am only two sessions in (acupuncture and cupping) and have already noticed a difference. As a mom to two toddlers, my time with Johanna is nothing but stress free, peaceful, and calm. I couldn’t thank Johanna enough for being so attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable.

The Acu Lounge is the best place to receive acupuncture and other holistic treatments. After my first appointment with Johanna (cupping/acupuncture) I immediately felt a noticeable difference in my body and my energy levels have been through the roof. If you are dealing with pain or any other health condition, I highly recommend making an appointment with Johanna. Her skills and knowledge are absolutely amazing!
Marc Esposito

For a while I was always hesitant about acupuncture, never really thought much about it, until I met Johanna. I suffer from a number of things from chronic shoulder pain, PMS, and so on. My biggest complaint is always shoulder pain, until I finally gave in and decided to try acupuncture. Johanna is extremely caring and very knowledgeable in what she does. I am all about conservative treatment and natural healing and for years Johanna has provided me with just that. Needless to say, she has helped me tremendously in decreasing my pain levels. I am thankful to know her and for the treatment she has and currently still provides me. I highly recommend Johanna for acupuncture.

I receive the most amazing treatment here from Johanna. I feel great after and she is truly gifted in healing. She listens to your issues and and makes a treatment plan tailored to suit you.

I have been going to the Accu Lounge to see Johanna for about a month now and I have seen so many positive results come from acupuncture. Not only is Johanna so kind and attentive during appointments, but she also connects on a personal level and really makes the entire healing experience one of a kind, enjoyable and relaxing. Highly Recommend!

Jo is an angel in disguise for me. She is caring, understanding and a great listener. She makes you feel very relaxed and welcomed in her office from the minute you walk in the door. Jo talks you through every step of the acupuncture process, so you feel comfortable and at ease with what’s going on while you are there. She makes you feel like she’s an old friend, even when you just met. I’m so blessed to have been brought to her!
Jennifer Lally
This is my go to self care every week! I was battling vertigo and I was diagnosed with Ménière's disease. Johanna listens, works with you, and ultimately HELPS. I am feeling back to myself and will not give up acupuncture each week. Johanna explains things, and I have found her to be very knowledgeable. I have seen and been to other acupuncture places but to me this is the best. If you are thinking about trying or not happy with results where you currently are give Acu Lounge a shot.
Kendra Biasini
Johanna is amazing such a good listener and so knowledgeable the entire experience was incredible. I went to her to be more proactive about my general health and I come out of it always feeling fantastic. She knows so much about the woman’s body and is always giving me tips and tricks on how to advocate for myself in our medical system.
Bella Gunst
I had an amazing experience at the Acu Lounge! Everything from the clean, cool and zen decor to the utmost professionalism and expertise of Johanna made my visit there as pleasant as can be.
I had lower back pain that was very uncomfortable and even though I had limited expectations going in, I came out feeling so much better. The pressure has decreased significantly and my mobility has been restored greatly.
Can’t wait to go back next week to continue on with my healing process!
Muriel P
Johanna is amazing at this. She has great knowledge and skills at acupuncture. Cupping and acupuncture has really helped with my back and shoulder issues allowing me to actively workout at the gym.

Kelly Koeppen
I had an amazing experience with acupuncture and fire cupping at The Acu Lounge. Johnna made me feel comfortable and explained the process thoroughly. The acupuncture session was incredibly relaxing, and I could feel the tension melting away. The addition of fire cupping provided an extra level of relief and improved circulation. I left feeling rejuvenated and with noticeable improvements in my overall well-being. I highly recommend The Acu Lounge for anyone seeking holistic healing methods.

Johanna is amazing! I suffer from back pains and carry my stress on my shoulders. Chiropractic treatments weren't enough and I was looking for other alternatives. Finding Acu Lounge Acupuncture by Johanna has been godsend. Her treatments (acupuncture and fire cupping) have helped me tremendously. She's professional, attentive and very knowledgeable. I look forward to our sessions.

I recently decided to try acupuncture to treat my body. The Acu Lounge acupuncture by Johanna was recommended so I decided to give it a try. After a few sessions with Johanna, here are some of the things that I liked:
* Johanna was very professional and caring. Absolutely understands acupuncture principles.
* She took the time to listen to my concerns and explain how acupuncture works.
* I felt comfortable throughout the treatment.
* The treatment was effective in relieving my pain.
* I have noticed an improvement in my overall health and well-being since starting acupuncture.
* Her facilities are extremely clean and spacious.
If you are considering trying acupuncture, I would highly recommend The Acu Lounge by Johanna - highly skilled and experienced, and offers a variety of treatments for a wide range of conditions.

Having had back pain on and off for a while, it was pretty bad and I was just looking for some relief. I apparently landed the right person. I went to see Johanna for acupuncture and hoping for some relief. After she evaluated my pain she picked a course of treatment. After some cupping followed by the acupuncture I had some relief. What I didn’t expect was getting off the table pain free. Not only does Johanna know what she is doing, she is the best at it. Going to be seeing her for my care.
David Spektor
Always a great experience, Johanna is very attentive, caring, and always makes me feel very comfortable. Acupuncture is new for me, but Johanna is very knowledgeable and I always leave feeling better. The space is clean and beautiful, zen. I look forward to continuing my wellness journey here!
Jessica Van Dam
Johanna is the greatest! She is insanely talented and confident in her abilities. She explains what she’s doing, and why she’s doing it to ensure her patient is comfortable every step of the way. Johanna takes her work seriously, while keeping the mood light and stress free. The Acu Lounge is immaculate and aesthetically pleasing from the minute you walk in the front door, until the minute you leave. 10/10 recommend!!!
Lauren Butera
I went to Johanna with a sharp back pain and immediately after the first teatment I felt relief which was more effective than the chiropractic care I had received. She also addressed several other issues associated with my back pain. Two thumbs up for her expertise and professionalism.

The question posed to me directly by my acupuncturist was, “What are you doing for self-care this week?” I had to pause and although I was getting treatment that arguably could be considered self-care, I had to think hard about what I was doing for my self-care this week. I felt a little on the spot and then remembered a hair appointment later in the week, but outside of that, my life was a dull routine at best. Focused on work, dinner solutions, what my teenagers needed, and what events this week would have my husband out late most of the week and coming home completely drained. Making vet appointments for the dog, squeezing in grocery shopping, and maybe getting to the cleaners this week, was what consumed me.
For the rest of my treatment, I wondered about not only what I knew I should do, like getting in some weight training, some more meditation, dusting off my yoga mat, and enjoying some quiet alone time.
I don’t know about you, but I often think that an outward fix (like a visit to the chiropractor, masseuse, nail salon, massage, hair appointment, etc.) is all I need to help ease my ailments and keep me balanced. Yet here I was, my face fully and comfortably cushioned and supported on the acupuncturist table, feeling the warmth of the acupuncture needles at the prescribed acupuncture points for my sore neck and trapezoids, and for stress along select points on my leg and feet, feeling relaxed, warm, safe, and centered, realizing that I had not been practicing true self-care. I had not been taking care of myself the way I would encourage others to. I had not been conversing with friends about our lives and being supportive of one another. I had not been as mindful and present in my everyday routines, and I had to change that immediately, and all thanks to my acupuncturist who was observant of my energy, looked me over, and asked me a simple question, knowing what ailed me and how to help my body find balance.
If you are feeling off in an area of your life and your body is responding to your stress and daily routine through aches, pains, soreness, and stiffness, I would encourage you to seek out someone like Johanna, who will treat you in every aspect that she’s able to and help bring you back into alignment with your personal energy flow (Qi, pronounced "Chee"). As I became aware of how the disruption of the energy flow can cause disease and manifest itself in my tensed-up shoulders and neck, and in my overall fatigue, I was glad that I was here with Johanna, applying acupuncture to certain points on my body and improving the flow of my Qi, thereby improving my health. I leave my treatment noticing how the tension in my body was alleviated, how my neck muscles and upper back were completely relaxed and aware of how the energy in my body was moving. It was no longer bottle-necked at problem points, it flowed easily and naturally, bringing with it relief and the ability to completely rest that night.
If you took the time to read this, consider exploring the services offered by a truly compassionate, caring, talented, and knowledgeable acupuncturist like Johanna. Sometimes something out of the ordinary can bring you extraordinary benefits, all you have to do is pick up the phone or send a DM, and make an appointment. #whatareyoudoingforselfcarethisweekladies, #acupunctureworks

As you know, my Dad suffered with a very aggressive form of bladder cancer for two years. We tried many treatments, doctors and hospitals. But nothing helped and his spirit was broken. He was afraid to die. When I agreed to have you come and help my dad with his severe edema, I had no idea that he was in his final days with us. Those two days you traveled back and forth to Staten Island to treat my father before he went into the hospital were so peaceful for him. He felt relaxed, grateful, and as he expressed, “light like air”. He slept more peacefully and soundly than he had in a longtime. Somehow, with your amazing gift for healing, you gave him what he needed. You gave him what I couldn’t. You helped heal and lift his spirit, besides relieving him of some of his edema. You gave him the peace his mind, body and spirit so desperately needed. I know that my father was grateful for you because he told you and all of us. And for that I will be eternally grateful. Much love and admiration!

If you are even borderline considering acupuncture, just book a consultation. Seriously, I’d been promising myself for years I’d do it and never pulled the trigger. I finally did it. Don’t wait like I did. Pull the trigger! You won’t be sorry.
