About Joy Lindquist, MS, L.Ac.

Joy Lindquist, MS, L.Ac.

I am a New York State licensed and nationally board certified acupuncturist. I hold a Master's degree in Acupuncture from the New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and a Bachelor's degree in Community Health Education from Hunter College. I am also certified by the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) as an Acupuncture Detoxification Specialist.

In addition to my experience as an acupuncturist, I spent ten years as a public health educator working with various not-for-profit organizations and NYC agencies. I am currently the Wellness Coordinator for the Othmer Cancer Center at Long Island College Hospital in Brooklyn.

The foundation of my practice is my belief that there is a very powerful link between diet and disease that is frequently overlooked. In addition to treating your immediate symptoms, I will often focus on your digestive health including dietary and nutritional recommendations. Good health can be as simple as giving your body the nutrition it needs, helping you realize increased immunity, improved physical strength and endurance, a healthy weight, enhanced mental clarity and an overall sense of well-being.
