Therapeutic tattoo is an ancient healing modality. As a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Dr. Korb tattoos points on the patient that will help treat their health concern. It is the same idea as an acupuncture needle stimulating a point. However the point remains stimulated. This allows the patient to continue receiving the benefits without having to maintain a needle. The qi continues to be invoked due to the mild and invisible scarring that happens with all tattoos.

Dar (they/them) is a Two-Spirited healer who comes from a legacy of indigenous leaders and healers from the Houma Nation–a small Tribe located in Southeast Louisiana. Dar’s great grandmother Hilda was a “Traiteuse”–a Native Cajun Folk healer. Hilda’s daughter Laura was the Chief of their tribe, and taught her grandchild Dar about their culture and practiced Houma traditions together. Though Hilda died before passing down her knowledge directly to Dar, the long lineage of healing through touch has inspired Dar to heal themself and their community through the combination of different practices.

While Dar was pursuing their BA in Gender and Sexuality Studies, they were introduced to Reiki for the first time. Inspired by the parallels between their great grandmother’s practice and Reiki, Dar got certified within a year. Seven years later in 2022, Dar is a certified Reiki Master, they have learned from other Traiteuses in their bayou community, and is finally following in their great grandmother’s footsteps.

Energy Healing: These sessions can provide support and relief from any number of issues such as energetic blockages, anxiety, depression, addiction, gender dysphoria. Dar’s own experiences with these issues inform their practice, and their goal is always to get you back to/ on the path towards perfect alignment. Anyone and everyone are welcome.

She was trained in various acupuncture styles, with a specialized focus in Kiiko Matsumoto Japanese style acupuncture, and Acupuncture Physical Medicine which places an emphasis on trigger point therapy.

Kanako is a second generation acupuncturist, deeply influenced by her upbringing in both China and Japan as well as her mother who was an acupuncturist herself. Acupuncture and other treatments such as “Gua Sha”, Cupping, Herbal medicine have always been part of her life and have made her who she was today. By nature, she is a very loving and compassionate person so she feels that this medicine is her calling in life - “I always wanted to help people in any way I can. When I first moved to NYC 7 years ago from Tokyo, what I found in my encounters is that many people suffer from side effects attributed to environmental pollution, pharmaceuticals and/or complications from a variety of operations. This created a desire to help others with so much more than just their living arrangements, it made me want to follow in my mother’s footsteps and study acupuncture and East Asian medicine. “

Kanako places a priority on making an emotional connection with patients when diagnosing their conditions and formulating a treatment plan. Empathy and understanding are her biggest strengths when making a patient feel comfortable and open to healing.

Outside of the clinic, Kanako spends her time golfing, hiking, mushroom foraging, and connecting with nature.
