I love love love this place I could live there. It has been a saving grace in my recovery from months of chronic lower back, sacroiliac joint and hip pain which caused limited range of mobility with limping. The practice boasts a cozy atmosphere, ambience is quite lovely and the decor makes you feel a sense of peace in the moment. I had the honor and privilege to be taken under the wings of Dr. Marlene Rivera and Dr. Fuller who both have been amazing.
I was highly impressed with Dr. Rivera’s expertise in chiropractic care. She’s very pleasant, listens to all your concerns, tries her best to aid, offers valuable advice and recommendations for at home care. After many sessions with her which included manual chiropractic adjustments, stretches, massage along with the utilization of the traction table, it helped tremendously to alleviate my pinch nerve diagnosis. In conjunction to her skills, she realized that I could definitely benefit from acupuncture for the deliberating pain that I was experiencing so she highly recommended her colleague Dr. Fuller.
Dr. Fuller is a master healer and an acupuncture specialist. She displays professionalism, friendliness and truly cares about your well being. After attending many psychiatrists, orthopedic, spine surgeons and physical therapy appointments with no improvement of my sciatica symptoms I began to feel hopeless and frustrated.
Wow!! Not only did she know how to treat this condition but she always provided words of encouragement, positive energy and went above and beyond by trying different techniques such as cupping, dry needling, scraping, massage, hot/cold therapy and reiki healing based on my feedback.
I started to see major improvement in my health both physically and emotionally. To my astonishment, I went from not being able to perform my daily activities without pain to almost back to normal with less leg weakness, numbness and tingling sensation within a few weeks. A simple walk to the train was achievable again. What a miracle! Super grateful is an understatement but gratitude is a must.
I’m so happy that I discovered this wonderful gem. It’s a phenomenal asset in my neighborhood. Shout out and cheers to the front desk team who has always been very supportive just by displaying a warm greet with a simple smile and accommodating me by ensuring a smooth, pleasant experience. I highly recommend it to others.
Way to go Community Chiropractic and Acupuncture of Park Slope!!🎉❤️

If you have Aetna Medicare Assure plan, don’t even bother calling this office. They don’t know how to bill the plan and are not interested in learning how to do it. They should be more proactive handling their contracts with insurance and companies.

I rarely write reviews, but I have excellent care at Community Acupuncture. I have seen Dr David (he did my intake). He was warm and professional and encouraged me to keep going with both my medical care and alternative treatments with him. I have seen Dr Sashana. She is warm and wonderful. She spent a lot of time. She encouraged me to see her colleague, Dr Thomas as well as as we were figuring out my issue. After 3 visits at the center, I have felt better than I had in six months. What a relief! I’m so grateful for the quiet and welcoming atmosphere, fir the incredible support and the excellent care.
