Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves inserting fine needles into specific points to regulate energy flow, relieve pain, and restore organ balance. We use Traditional Chinese and Japanese techniques to treat chronic conditions, stress, and injuries. Our approach combines modern science with centuries-old practices for holistic healing.
Auricular Therapy
Auricular therapy targets acupuncture points on the ear to address pain, emotional imbalances, and addiction recovery. This non-invasive treatment helps detoxify the body, regulate hormones, and improve mental clarity. It is particularly effective for smoking cessation and stress management.
Cupping
Cupping uses glass or silicone cups to create suction on the skin, promoting blood flow and muscle relaxation. This therapy alleviates chronic pain, reduces inflammation, and enhances circulation. Patients often experience immediate relief from tension and improved mobility after sessions.
Massage Therapy
Our licensed Massage Therapist provides medical and holistic treatments to address muscle tension, lymphatic drainage, and energy imbalances. Techniques include Swedish, hot stone, and cranial sacral therapy to improve physical function, reduce stress, and support overall wellness.
Telemedicine
Telemedicine offers remote health assessments and treatment plans via video or phone. Patients receive personalized Chinese Medicine diagnoses, nutritional guidance, and supplement recommendations. This service supports non-emergency care for allergies, digestive issues, and lifestyle-related conditions.

Report
I already left a review for Magalys and the acupuncture and nutrition services I have received and this review is for my most recent visit to Michelle, the Massage Therapist. I have had chronic muscles issues in my upper back and neck from years of playing golf and regular massages were not doing the trick; thus, I decided to try a Medical Massage by Michelle at the Acupuncture & Holistic Healing Center in Scotch Plains, NJ. I am the type of person who does not use absolutes like "always" and "never": however, after receiving a medical massage from Michelle I will NEVER get a regular massage

Magalys genuinely cares about people, and health-two topics she is extremely passionate about, and it reflects in her work. I felt an immediate difference after my very first treatment with her, and I have been needing fewer sessions in less than a month! She advocates a healthy lifestyle overall, and wants everyone to be functioning at their best. She is very knowledgeable and goes out of her way to help her patients to the best of her ability.

She takes the time to get to know her patients and does everything she can in order to help the patient feel better. She helped me with my pain and I can honestly say I feel so much better and you barely feel the needles.
