Recovering from surgery can be a challenging process, often involving pain, swelling, stiffness, and fatigue. While rest and physical therapy are essential, adding acupuncture to your recovery plan can help you heal faster, regain mobility, and restore energy more effectively.
At Advanced Holistic Center, we provide specialized acupuncture treatments tailored for post-surgical rehabilitation. Our focus is on supporting your body’s natural healing processes so you can return to your daily activities with confidence and strength.
Acupuncture encourages circulation to surgical sites, delivering oxygen and nutrients needed for tissue repair. It also helps reduce inflammation, minimize scar tissue formation, and ease post-operative pain without relying solely on medications.
From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, surgery can disrupt the balance of Qi (energy) and blood. Acupuncture restores this balance, promoting both physical recovery and overall well-being during the rehabilitation process.
By addressing not just the site of surgery but also related tension and imbalances, acupuncture can improve range of motion and reduce the risk of secondary injuries.
Multiple studies have shown that acupuncture can be highly effective in post-surgical recovery. Research published in Anesthesia & Analgesia found that acupuncture significantly reduced post-operative pain and nausea, leading to quicker mobilization and reduced medication use.
Other research highlights acupuncture’s role in improving circulation, decreasing swelling, and enhancing joint mobility after orthopedic and abdominal surgeries. This makes it a safe and valuable addition to conventional rehab programs.
We have decades of expertise in supporting patients recovering from orthopedic, abdominal, and cosmetic surgeries through targeted acupuncture care.
We combine acupuncture with complementary therapies, movement guidance, and lifestyle strategies for a well-rounded recovery.
Our clinics in Downtown Brooklyn and the Financial District make it easy to access expert post-surgical care close to home or work.
We accept most commercial insurance plans and handle the claim process for you so you can focus on healing.
Every recovery journey begins with a thorough evaluation to understand your surgical history, current condition, and any factors affecting your healing.
We select acupuncture points that reduce pain, accelerate tissue repair, and restore energy flow to aid full recovery.
To further support healing, we may recommend:
Your first visit includes a detailed consultation followed by a tailored acupuncture session designed for post-surgical recovery.
Many patients experience reduced pain and improved comfort after the first few treatments, with sustained benefits building over time. Depending on your surgery type and recovery needs, we’ll create a schedule that supports your long-term results.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients benefit from 6–10 sessions, though complex or extensive surgeries may require longer care.
When will I start seeing results?
Some notice relief within the first treatment, while others experience gradual improvements over several weeks.
Is acupuncture after surgery covered by insurance?
Yes, we accept most commercial insurance plans and will submit claims for you.
Does it hurt?
Acupuncture uses very fine needles and is generally painless—many patients find treatments deeply relaxing.
Can acupuncture help after joint replacement or orthopedic surgery?
Yes, it can ease stiffness, reduce swelling, and support faster rehabilitation.
You’ve taken the important first step by having surgery—now let’s make your recovery as smooth and effective as possible. Acupuncture offers a natural, proven way to speed healing and improve your quality of life after surgery.

Can’t say enough. My husband and I have seen instant improvement in our health. The staff are nothing shy of INCREDIBLE. You don’t feel like just another number – they are warm and caring. Highly recommend to make this place a part of your self care regimen!!!!! Thank you healers!!!!
Dr. Logman is quite incredible! I’m an individual who is very active and likes to push physical boundaries in training … Coming from Long Island, I was certainly pretty jacked up physically, but within one session, I felt significantly better… She’s 1000% worth seeing regardless of your location. Thank you for actually being the healers we need!
I was in such great hands with BK. As a lifelong sufferer of mental illness, acupuncture made me feel like a million bucks. Just so you know, you need more than 1 visit to recover from whatever ailments. Now that I’ve had 5, I feel like a whole new person. So glad this place exists! Your health is your wealth, after all. I’ll be back for more!
Dr. Logman and her entire staff are all super nice and knowledgeable. I have been experiencing on and off back spasms for a really long time and feel like I may finally be in inching towards healing my lower back! Every session so far has left me feeling better and more relaxed.
The whole staff are friendly and helpful and have created a calm environment with great healing energy. BK, my acupuncturist, is a great listener and in addition to always making me feel great with his work offers helpful suggestions and exercises to work on between sessions.
Dr. Orna was absolutely fabulous! The whole team was welcoming and professional. They walked me through my problem areas and catered an amazing personalized experience based on my needs. I will definitely be back!
My favorite acupuncture practitioners work here. Definitely book Orna, BK and Rimma. (And Irinia, of course, when she’s in NYC) They’re excellent at treating chronic joint pain, mental/ addiction issues and neuropathy. But also go if you need an immune system boost, detox after drinking or have low energy levels. This is also the place to go, if like me, you’re jumpy with needles. They’re very skilled at making it a painless experience
The Adv. Holistic Center is incredible and really changed my life here in the city. Highly recommend for anyone experiencing physical pain, emotional regulation needs, overall wellness and wellbeing or anything in between including pilates and physical therapy needs. Yhenni who works at the desk, is so kind and helpful and always welcoming. She is quick to help you with any scheduling needs or questions. She is very knowledgeable about all things advanced holistic center! I am lucky to have received treatment from Dr Irina, who travels back and forth to her offices here in the city and in Miami, while she was here. I have received treatment here for my chronic migraines, TMJ pain, and emotional regulation, and Pilates work. I’m so grateful to have worked with Dr. Irina who is an incredible practitioner and Pilates instructor. Every experience with her was incredibly healing and treated with the utmost care. I always leave feeling better than when I arrived. The power of acupuncture and eastern medicine to help your body heal itself, is quite magical. The reformer pilates work is equally amazing- I left feeling 6 inches taller and stronger. In 3 days, my TMJ pain was fixed, and migraines decreased. I even received a comprehensive list of foods that will help and hinder my migraines so I am able to implement change in my daily life to see improvements from the root of the problem! My chronic migraines have decreased for the first time in 10+ years with NO PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION! I can without a doubt say this practice has contributed for the betterment of my overall quality of life and care for myself. All thanks to the amazing work of Dr Irina and her staff at the Advanced Holistic Centers. I’m so grateful to have found such a wonderful, healing space! I recommend this space to my family and friends both in Florida, and the city.
Love this practice! I’ve been receiving treatments since June at the NYC locations and have worked with Rimma, Gary, and even Irina herself. Thanks so much for such gentle and loving care. I really have been trying to give my belly, uterus, ovaries, and overall body some love throughout the day, minding my breathing and really focusing on the tools each practitioner has given me. I loved our session on monday so much, thank you for that time. One of the very best acupuncture snoozes I’ve ever had!
I’ve been coming here for quite some time now and I must say, from the admin to the doctors, everyone is amazing. Either Anna or Yhenni will greet you with a smile and take care of all your admin needs. I have never received a treatment that I didn’t like. This is why I continue to go back. Today, Orna treated me and she was absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond and is always spot on with treatments.
Beautiful clinic and amazing providers. Im a physical therapist and used my body a lot for work, often resulting in low back pain and shoulder/neck pain. I always come to see Orna for great trigger point acupuncture. She’s also helped me with gastro and sleep issues. Highly recommend
Honestly she has the golden touch. My lower back was killing me could barely stand straight. Even sneezing would hurt. But Just after 1 session I felt alive again. Would highly recommend anyone who has lower back pain or any pain.
Outstanding and proffessional clinic. From the service and approach of the customer coordinatour through the Most . proffessional and sensitive doctor I went in with stressed muscles hardly able to move my leg and came out walking almost as usual after only 2 visits Highly reccomend
Suffering from back and neck pain, I finally decided to see Dr. Irina Logman. I can’t believe the immediate pain relief after only 1 session of acupuncture and manual therapy. Not only did the pain go away, I felt revitalized. I will definitely continue treatments with Dr. Logman. I highly recommend the Advanced Holistic Center for all your holistic care needs. I highly recommend seeing Orna! She will make your body melt.
This place miraculous!! I am so grateful and happy that have found this clinic. I’ve been in so much pain and illness with my digestive issues since moving to the United States in 2019. I’ve gone through three gastroenterologists who while experts, only treated symptoms of what has become a chronic problem with over medication and poor diet (there’s something about American food and ingredients that mess up my digestion). Rimma has been treating me since I’ve signed up for acupuncture. She’s a professional but also very caring and warm. She’s done amazing work with my digestive system, muscle pain, and migraine complimenting acupuncture with cupping and gua sha. She’s also treated me when I had colds and also my occasional muscle pain from exercising. Dr. Irina treated me in one session where she used electrolysis which resulted to the best releasing cleanse I’ve had in a very long time. I look forward to my biweekly sessions especially on Sundays as it’s my self-care day. I feel healed but I’m still in my journey towards become holistically healthy. I can’t thank this place enough.
