Andrea Henkels, NYS L.Ac.
Growing up as a competitive equestrian, Andrea has always had an interest in health and fitness. She strained her shoulder while training young horses and found relief in acupuncture.
She began studying with the local acupuncturist, Therese Balagna, even before she began her three year graduate course at The Tri-State College of Acupuncture in New York City.
Andrea worked as an intern at the school's clinic and was able to study with many Master Practitioners in the styles of APM, Japanese, and Chinese medicine. She earned a Masters of Science Degree in Acupuncture and become a New York State Licensed Acupuncturist.
Andrea also has a degree in Exercise Science and Sports medicine, with a concentration in Allied health and is a National Academy of Sports Medicine Certified Personal Trainer.
Recently Andrea traveled to India in order to pursue additional education in the fields of Yoga and Ayurveda.
Andrea considers herself a lifelong learner and is a strong believer in holistic medicine. She continues to study different types of medicine to ensure that her clients receive the best options possible for achieving optimal well-being.
