Dr. Naika Apeakorang, ND, LAc., Brooklyn NY

I'm SO grateful to have received care from Dr. Naika and wholeheartedly recommend her services.

I found her while seeking acupuncture to ease symptoms of chronic illness and pain. We reviewed my health history, problem areas, discussed a plan of action, and proceeded with the acupuncture, which was pain-free and deeply relaxing. Several times during the process I experience the sensation of stagnant energy in my physical body becoming unstuck. After sessions, I feel empowered and renewed.

Dr. Naika is gentle, attentive and deeply cares about your comfort and healing. She provides a safe, validating atmosphere of healing and I'm filled with gratitude for her gentle, powerful services.

I, too, am blown away by Dr. Naika’s talent, empathy, and wisdom. I am beyond grateful that she has answered the call to do this healing work. I've had acupuncture at several other places in Brooklyn, and can say with certainty that she is the BEST - and by that I mean the most holistic, knowledgeable, compassionate, thoughtful, and intuitive healer I’ve ever worked with. These qualities are evident when you first meet her.

Prior to our initial meeting, I had some reservations about sharing what was truly ailing me at the time. Dr. Naika's warmth and beautiful energy quickly assuaged any fears and I was able to open up to her. It is rare to find a doctor who honors your truth without judgement, and who will share bits about her own experiences to help you feel less alone.

What continues to impress me each time we meet is her thorough questioning and ability to sense what is at the root of a problem, often before I even get on the table. Her follow-up care recommendations for how I can manage my issues (I’ve seen her for a myriad of things: knee pain, back pain, shoulder pain, stress, PMS, you name it) are always spot on and even fun to delve into— I’m talking everything from YouTube channels to herbs to ways to exercise and how to send free time.

Finally, I love that each meeting is a conversation and healing exchange of energy and ideas. I leave feeling educated and empowered - cared for, and able to care for myself. I trust Dr. Naika implicitly with my health and well-being.

I’ve been consistently receiving care from Dr. Naika for a year now, and the changes I feel within myself are dramatic. I feel more connected to my emotions and my body. I’m better able to recover when experiencing pain. I can make decisions for myself and experience more clarity. Dr. Naika provides a space to heal authentically. I don’t feel like I have to perform relaxation. She meets me where I’m at, and every session feels like and opportunity to take on new perspectives. I’m so grateful for her care and expertise!

One of the best doctors I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Always amazed at Dr. Naika’s integrity and her dedication to helping you heal mind, body and spirit. It’s become clear to me that she is truly blessed and anointed by a higher power to do this work. I couldn’t recommend her enough.
