About Us
My name is Donna Nield, and I’ve called the East Village my home for over 20 years. I place a huge importance on being a valuable member of my community not just personally, but professionally. As a licensed practitioner of acupuncture and Eastern medicine, seeing patients discover the real, tangible benefits of regular acupuncture and massage is my passion. That regularity is key, and my interactions with thousands of patients over the years have taught me that for many, making this kind of care a consistent part of your life can be difficult when it’s often priced like a luxury. It became my dream to offer top-level acupuncture and massage services to my East Village neighbors at an affordable price, and that dream came true in 2016 when I opened the clinic.
Our locally owned practice offers our community the highest standard of safe and effective healing from a team of experienced, committed professionals. Our licensed acupuncturists all have master's or doctorate degrees. Every member of our staff has years of experience not only with the highest-level techniques in Eastern medicine, but with the principles and practices of Western medicine as well. Because of this, the treatment program that we tailor to your specific needs can work seamlessly with your existing care. This kind of holistic approach is at the core of our practice, with a constant focus on providing you with the greatest possible level of relief.
It’s also very important to me that we provide our health services at a lower cost—without sacrificing your quality of care. Our practice utilizes a relaxing, open floor plan where practitioners can attend to patients swiftly and easily, while linen screens maintain patients’ visual privacy. The community aspect of our space doesn’t just keep costs low, it actually aligns with the way traditional Chinese medicine was intended to be practiced, prioritizing the mind-body connection with exactly the kind of soothing and tranquil atmosphere that stress-prone New Yorkers particularly need.
I believe all people should be able to experience the vital benefits of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, but I feel a special responsibility towards my Manhattan neighbors. And the thousands of patients we’ve successfully treated for conditions ranging from pregnancy and fertility, to headaches and back pain, to depression and anxiety have only strengthened my resolve. Today, our practice also offers herbal medicine, cupping, and trigger point therapy. I am so proud that our sterling reputation and convenient location have made us a destination for the communities of not just the East Village but the Lower East Side, Gramercy, Soho, Union Square, Greenwich Village, and all of Lower Manhattan for natural healing. Book an appointment or stop in to see us at work today.

Brian Maloney L.Ac
While working as a yoga teacher and trained chef, Brian felt called to make a shift in order to have a deeper impact on the health and well-being of his clients. His search led him to the study of Eastern Medicine. Brian received his Master’s of Science from Tri-State College of Acupuncture. His practice is largely influenced by the style of the founder of the College, Doctor Mark Seem, called Acupuncture Physical Medicine, and the trigger point therapy research of Doctor Janet Travell. He is also largely influenced by the teachings of Japanese acupuncturist Kiiko Matsumoto. Brian has many tools he brings to his sessions with his patients—acupressure, moxibustion, cupping, guasha and Amma bodywork—which he uses to treat a myriad of symptoms, such as pain, insomnia, digestive disorders, stress and more. These tools coupled with his intuitive sensitivity allow him to unlock and maximize the healing potential of the human body.
