Soo Mi, Licensed Acupuncturist

Le' Spa Naturale

From an early age I knew I was going to be a healer. My father was a practitioner of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine for over 40 years and was a major inspiration to me.   I used to watch in awe as he would cure people of their ailments, miraculously relieving years of pain and suffering. 

My desire to understand this ancient art fueled my appetite for knowledge, knowledge to become a healer myself. I attended Mercy College in New York and studied under the supervision of Dr. William Prinsky, one of the leading educators in Chinese medicine and acupuncture in the country. Although my major field of study is acupuncture I rounded my education with the study of Chinese Herbal Medicine, Qi Gong (energy healing), and related fields of Western Medicine including Pathophysiology and Pharmacology. 

My specialty is in pain management, gynecological problems and facial rejuvenation. I myself have suffered from lower back pain and chronic tennis elbow, injuries I received during my college years. My clinical dissertation on lateral epicondylitis, known as tennis elbow, earned me my Masters degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. The suffering I went through has made me very empathetic toward the chronic pain and suffering of my patients, and the fact that I myself was cured instilled in me the confidence to help and encourage others. 

During my internship at Sound Shore Medical Center, I successfully treated many gynecological problems through integrative medicine, which include menstrual problems, uterine cyst, and infertility to name a few. This experience has given me the invaluable lesson on the importance of working on the body as a whole and bringing balance and wholeness to the body. 

I am a licensed acupuncturist in New York State, and I am National Board Certified Diplomat in Acupuncture. I am certified in facial rejuvenation acupuncture and trained under Mary Elizabeth Wakefield, who is renowned for facial rejuvenation acupuncture in Hollywood.

Welcome.  As a holistic health practitioner, my practice is dedicated to helping my patients achieve optimum health through a balance of body, mind and spirit. Too often, the stresses of modern urban life push our bodies and minds to the limit, and this begins to take its toll on our health. The healing traditions of ancient China are uniquely suited to the health concerns faced by so many New Yorkers. I invite you to contact me and find out how Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can help bring back a healthful balance to your life. I am a New York State Licensed Acupuncturist offering acupuncture and Chinese medicine at two convenient locations, on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, and in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn.

About Me. I was trained in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine at Bastyr University in Seattle, one of the leading institutions in the country for the study and advancement of Natural Medicine. My areas of clinical emphasis are on pain management, depression, anxiety, geriatric care and gynecological problems and infertility. I also have over a decade of experience studying and teaching Tai Chi. The style of Tai Chi I teach is the Yang Family Traditional form that I learned from Master Yang Jun, 6th generation descendent of the Yang family. I employ a gentle teaching style, and I am adept at adapting classes to any special needs of the student.
