Joseph Alban
I am a licensed acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner. Dedicated to the traditional apprenticeship style and classical Chinese medicine, I traveled to China to complete a hospital residency at the First Traditional Chinese Medicine Teaching Hospital of the Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. There, in the acupuncture, Chinese Herbal medicine and tui na (medical massage) departments I trained with leading physicians in the field. In China I saw how the traditional doctors use both their clinical treatment skills and the clinical relationship to help their patients. This training still influences me today and remains the backbone of my practice. My practice focuses on helping patients living with chronic illness and pain with individualized acupuncture, Tui Na, and herbal recommendations.Currently, I hold a New York and New Jersey Acupuncture Licenses and is a Diplomate in Oriental Medicine. I am is also serving as Acupuncture Research Consultant at Lutheran Medical Center. Prior to going to China, I graduated from Touro College’s four year clinical Masters program in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, during which I worked in Touro’s clinic as well as at Lutheran Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Interests and Hobbies:
In addition to running an acupuncture practice, I practice Tai Ji and qi gong. I am also interested in integrating healthy cooking for wellness preservation and longevity.
