What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture

Energy flows through your body all the time. When the energy pathways in your body are blocked, you can get sick or feel pain. Acupuncture uses tiny, thin needles. An acupuncturist will put the needles lightly into your skin to promote healing and help balance the flow of energy in your body. This can make you feel happier and healthier!

Acupuncture can help you with:

  • Stress
  • Anxiety (feeling very worried and nervous)
  • Depression
  • Joint pain
  • Headaches
  • Nausea (feeling sick to your stomach)
  • Digestion
  • Breathing problems
  • Sleep
  • And much more!

Update: Parent Portal Access

Dear Parent or Guardian,

We would like to inform you that as of September 1, 2026, access to your child’s Healow account through Community Healthcare Network (CHN) will be limited to viewing immunizations and referrals for all patients ages 12 and older. This change is required to comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and New York State laws that protect minors’ rights to confidentiality.

You may still request your child’s medical records by calling or visiting your health center.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please speak with our front desk staff during your next visit or go to: chnnyc.info/nylaw

Thank you,
Community Healthcare Network (CHN)
