Kathryn Duffy Acupuncturist

It’s a great time to take care of yourself with acupuncture and holistic medicine.

Dr. Kathryn Duffy makes it easier than ever in the heart of the Hudson Valley
As New Yorkers, we are famously resilient …but that doesn’t mean that you should try to do it all on your own.

Acupuncture is an essential service in New York State because it is clinically effective at addressing the symptoms of stress, anxiety, PTSD, supporting the immune system, relieving physical pain, and supporting fertility and reproductive health - plus, it is pleasant, relaxing, and a great reason for you to claw back an hour just for you.

Take care of yourself, first. Now more than ever, you haven’t got anything if you haven’t got your health.

Stress takes many forms.
Acupuncture mediates the effects of prolonged stress by interacting with the parasympathetic nervous system. Acupuncture and other therapies like cupping, gua sha, and dietary modifications can reduce inflammation, relieve pain, improve sleep and reduce perceived stress levels for months after completing a course of treatment.

Solutions tailored to you - way beyond pain relief.
Acupuncture has a stellar track record in relieving pain, but the pain has many causes - anything from using your phone a little too often to injuries from running or other repetitive workouts, to fighting an autoimmune disorder like fibromyalgia, lupus, or chronic Lyme. Your best outcomes come from treating you as the individual you are.

Cosmetic Acupuncture
Beauty begins from the inside, but acupuncture can help you along without the use of injections or chemical peels. Check out this demo of a facial gua sha session to see how relaxing being your best can be.

Issues Treated

— Women’s Health
Acupuncture and herbal medicine are excellent at regulating hormones and relieving issues such as painful periods due to hormonal imbalance, fibroids or endometriosis, irregular periods, infertility, and the side effects of peri-menopause (think hot flashes, insomnia, and other undesirable changes).

— Emotional Health
Acupuncture has been found to be clinically effective at relieving stress (a big contributor to five of the top leading causes of death in adults in the U.S.) and regulating anxiety and depression. Let’s face it, New York makes us irritable. You don’t have to let it.

— Metabolic Health
Acupuncture can help in lowering blood glucose and A1c levels, regulating thyroid hormones, and improving digestive complaints. It’s also a clutch player in assisting with a range of autoimmune concerns including Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Lyme, lupus, and fibromyalgia.

— Musculoskeletal Pain
Got pain? Acupuncture can help without the use of medication or side effects. In fact, in numerous studies acupuncture has been found to be more effective at controlling back pain than surgery. Whether you’re a marathoner, lift heavy weights or ride your desk, I can help.
