Christian DiStefano is a board certified acupuncturist licensed in New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island. He is a graduate of SUNY Geneseo and the prestigious Tri-State College of Acupuncture in New York. He became interested in acupuncture after witnessing some of what he now recognizes as the everyday miracles that one gets to witness and experience in an acupuncture practice.

He entered the field with the philosophy that there is an innate healer in everyone, and the job of the acupuncturist is to find and awaken this healer. During his time practicing he has found this to be true. Perhaps the greatest reward in practice is treating a person that has nearly given up hope of help, and helping that person find the way to heal. He continues to be fascinated by the fact that insertion of ultrathin needles in one part of the body bring health, and relief to a distal extremity or organ.

The rigorous training at the Tri-State college requires mastery of 3 styles of acupuncture. Acupuncture Physical Medicine is a style developed by the founder of the school using meridian theory combined with the trigger point work of the late Dr. Janet Travell. Kiiko Matsumoto style acupuncture is an eclectic Japanese style acupuncture that incorporates the works of several Japanese masters of acupuncture, as well as a Japanese interpretation of 5 element theory. TCM is traditional Chinese Medicine. This is the most common style. It is the primary style practice in China today.

Chris has also takes extensive continuing education classes in acupuncture while practicing. These include Dr. Tan's style of acupuncture, Korean Hand acupuncture, and facial rejuvenation using acupuncture. His mastery of these different styles gives him depth of treatment. If one style is not producing immediate results, he will switch to another.

Chris is also excited to announce the commencement of the AccuBead diet . This remarkable diet delivers weight loss of 15 pounds or more OF FAT per month without any drugs, and without energy loss or sluggishness.
