I had severe back problems. My orthopedist, neurologist, spine specialist and primary physician all recommended surgery. Then I commandeered a better way and started going once a week to Victoria Allen for acupuncture, sometimes twice a week. In a few months all 4 doctors agreed that the back surgery was no longer required! Her treatment not only saved me from back surgery and constant pain but also helped me see better, breathe better, listen better and stand taller, I feel more energetic and actually love living !!! Thank you Victoria with all my heart! She's the best kept secret in New York!!!

I initially started seeing Victoria for upper back pain that had been with me for many years. Nothing seemed to help. Only yoga gave me a little relief. She started treating me for the pain but quickly realized that the back pain was caused by stress and diet. Once we got to the root the real progress began and it literally changed my life. I am so grateful and plan on keeping regular acupuncture visits a part of my life for a long time.

My intense boxing training began causing me reoccurring back and shoulder spasms and knots.After months of massage therapy I decided to try acupuncture. I felt great relief within the first two sessions, and my spasms completely stopped after two weeks. I now make acupuncture with Victoria part of my weekly training regimen.

Victoria holds a very special place in my heart when it comes to my healing journey!! That’s why she’ll always be highly recommended & I’ll tell anyone who’ll listen!! Her work is phenomenal & life changing! I used to suffer with upper respiratory infections & had horrible bouts with symptoms from allergies. After seeking treatment with Victoria, they have become a thing of the past! From treatments for better sleep to athletic recovery, Victoria does it all!! You won’t find a better acupuncturist to take care of your needs! Allow her magic hands, years of experience & knowledge to work for you & whatever ails you! You won’t regret it!

I have been seeing Victoria for acupuncture on and off for over a dozen years, since we both lived in the city. When I moved to CT and she opened her office in Westchester, I was so thrilled to be able to reconnect because she is truly the most caring, healing, and intuitive acupuncturist. When I come for an appointment, unlike other acupuncturists who are cramming in clients and leaving you with needles to rest, Victoria works on healing energy, reiki, and overall is just 1000% committed to helping you feel as well as possible with every tool at her disposal. She is truly the best and I feel so lucky that she's open now in Hastings.

I came to Victoria with shoulder pain and a lot of skepticism about acupuncture—but I’m now a true believer. After just a couple of sessions, my pain significantly decreased and my mobility improved. Victoria is skilled, compassionate, and creates a calming space. Highly recommend!
