2026 update!!! It's been a while, I moved away for a bit, and then when I moved back they were kind…read moreof far from me & I'm broke. But I threw out my back & I've had it with the steroid injections & bs. So I spoiled myself. They just reopened on Willoughby in Bushwick and oh my lanta!!!! It's a much more intimate space than they had 10 years ago, when you go for the community option I think there's only three beds now. Not only does the bed heat up, but the wonderful Dr Patchi put a heating lamp on my back for my cramps. LUXURY I swear this was a spa like experience! Patchi is super warm & chill, and SO intuitive with her hands. She also used a tens unit which I completely love. She is so so so skilled, and that excellent skill is overshadowed in the best way by her warmth. When we were done I slowly sat up and stretched my back a bit, and felt pops where I've been really needing to feel pops! She also did some needling for an ankle I broke last year that I'm still healing, and I'm really impressed by how much that worked. Of course it isn't magic, I still have cramps and my back is still rough, but both are much much much more manageable after just one session. I was tipped off to a pay what you can day coming up soon, and I really really really appreciated that (& immediately booked a spot). Being broke sucks, this economy sucks, looking for a job sucks, and it sucks even more when you feel like you're being judged for not having much money (esp since Bushwick is turning snooty). That tip was such a compassionate move, and it's so kind that they're having to pay what you can day!!!

I've been fortunate enough to work with many acupuncturists of Tigerlilly Holistic, and I can…read moreconfidently say this place is exceptional in the quality of service they offer at an affordable rate. I typically visit Tigerlilly at least four times a year, and every practitioner has been kind, thorough, and knowledgeable of the field of Chinese medicine and acupuncture. I've only left this place feeling significantly better in regards to my chronic back pain. If you're dealing with a chronic pain, stress induced inflammation, or just need to decompress, I highly recommend this place. You can feel the love and commitment to community! Thank you all for the work that you do!

I very rarely write reviews but wanted to ensure everyone considering Deborah has the opportunity…read moreto have a session with her. I did a Tao Hands/Distance Reiki session. I've done Reiki a couple of times before but never felt a huge difference. With Deborah, it was different. During the session, Deborah asked questions to understand my needs and concerns. She was positive and warm, and made me feel very comfortable. She also introduced me to flower essences, which I hadn't heard of prior. During the healing session, I yawned a lot (like I was releasing a lot of repressed energy!). Afterwards, I felt relaxed - it was clear that the session truly worked although it wasn't done in person, which I was a little nervous about at first. Deborah also quickly followed up after our session with additional information and promptly responded to a follow up question I had about flower essences. It's been four days since our session, and my chronic neck pain that I've had for 10 weeks is significantly better - in a way my chiropractor couldn't help. I'm really glad I made the investment in my healing session with Deborah and now understand why she has so many positive, genuine reviews (she's not compensating us or giving us discounts to write these, like some businesses do!). I'm very grateful to have found Deborah - she is truly gifted.

I had a great experience visiting Mariya for a reiki healing session in January 2026. She patiently…read moreexplained to me the process and her home was a healing sanctuary.

She gave us so much insight, but most importantly, she gave us the gift of Reiki - that I practice daily on myself and intend to practice on others in the future it has been an interesting and motivating experience, and I would recommend that if you are looking into Reiki for yourself or to work with others - to work with Jissel. As someone who is not new to spirituality, I felt very confident when working with her. She knows what she's doing and that made me feel like I'll be sharp in no time. Thankful for the gift of Reiki.

Spot on, I highly recommend this. One would think of this practice as woo-woo but there seems to be a real connection between the markings on our palm and the relationahip to our brain. Very cool.
