Z.

I would highly recommend Nate to everyone, he has helped myself and my son from issues from back pain to Bells Palsy, both received significant improvements after just a few sessions, I won't hesitate to see Nate in the future if needed. Wonderful experience, very knowledgeable, great guy. Thank you Nate.

E.

I would recommend Acute Acupuncture to everyone! It is such a safe and comfortable place to be. Nate is fantastic! I always look forward to my acupuncture sessions and feel very relaxed afterwards.

V.

A couple of days ago I have been diagnosed with Bill's palsy- temporary facial paralysis. Very uncomfortable and upsetting condition for everyone. Today, I meet Nate in his clinic on Terrace. Superb location, boutique feeling and professional approach for each customer. From the first minute, I was feeling comfortable and in the right hands. I liked calming atmosphere in the clinic, relaxing music and confidence in Nates actions. 1 hour later, I am booked my next 5 sessions with Nate and I am sure he will help me to bring my smile back! I am also glad, in my case Nate used electroacupuncture for the best result- and to be honest, good results this is all that I need at the moment. Thanks, Nate and I am looking forward to seeing you on Friday!

A.

I went to Nate at the end of last year (for five sessions) and felt improvement in my digestion and head tension. Nate is very knowledgable and I look forward to going to him again.

L.

I highly recommend this place, I am painter, I was suffering stiffness and tired shoulder due the hard work and the repetitive motion. The cupping, and the accupunture released all that tension and pain accumulated by months. Nathan is a excellent professional, kind to help me an Also give me a free session. Thanks very much 👍🏽👍🏽💯💯

R.

I wasn't sure what to expect from acupuncture treatment as I'd never tried it before. I'm so glad that I did though as Nate talked me through everything and made me feel at ease. Nate was very patient and understanding and the treatment he provided helped me to overcome some obstacles I'd faced for as long as I can remember. My advice to anyone considering acupuncture treatment is to go in with an open mind and heart and rest assured that Nate will take care of you. Thank you Nate ❤🧡💛

S.

Nate is helping me improve my metabolism and the results are unbelievable. I am in love with the vitamins supplements available at Their store.

A.

I just had my first treatment with Nate and can tell he is awesome in what he's doing. He offers a free consultation where he discusses your problems and explains all about acupuncture. He listens to you carefully, is very calming and gives you recommendations what you can do in addition to the treatment. Can highly recommend him!

D.

Nate is an amazing professional, always calm and willing to help. I had an issue on my left heel due to pregnancy that caused some strong sharp pain and after one session it got better and it's not bothering anymore. I strongly recommend his services.

W.

After just one treatment, which included medical massage and cupping, I left Nate's clinic without the neck, shoulder pain and body tension I've felt for many years. The treatment was excellent, professional and rejuvenating. The practice achieves a good blend of being clinical as well as harmonious, and has a high standard of hygiene. The plants provided a homely touch. I very much recommend Nate's knowledge and expertise at Acute Acupuncture.

J.

MY NEW HAPPY PLACE, As a parent I get little time for myself to relax full stop! But when you come here you definitely know it's all about you.. It was the highlight of my week! I can't wait for my next treatment. I enjoyed it so much I have booked in for the next year 😊💚💙

A.

I have been diagnosed with wrist tendonitis and possible cartilage damage via ultrasound. I've had my wrist in a brace for months and been on anti-inflammatories. I tried acupuncture as a last resort because the pain was so bad and i had never really tried it before. After only a few sessions with Nate i began feeling pain free and could remove my brace for long periods of time. I'm so glad i gave acupuncture a go, and he has been really helpful with easing me into the experience. Before these sessions i was considering wrist surgery. Now I'm just looking forward to my next session because i have felt better every time!

O.

A great place to get treatment! Nate was very knowledgable and eager to learn about me before starting treatment. His thorough questions gave him more of an idea about me and how he could help. His vast knowledge and approach was great and after 2 sessions of cupping and acupuncture it had helped me massively. I would recommend Acute Acupuncture to anyone if they're looking for some very good treatment. Thanks Nate!

A.

We came to Nate at the end of our tether. My teenage daughter had been suffering for almost 3 months with debilitating nerve pain affecting her upper back, neck and arm. Physios, doctors, GPs weren’t able to help. It was getting worse, and she was being prescribed more and more serious pain relief drugs. We didn’t know much about acupuncture and hadn’t experienced it before. Nate was fantastic. He was gentle and caring. Within a few acupuncture sessions we were finally seeing improvements. After another few weeks with regular appointments she completely turned a corner with her recovery. She’s now back to normal with no pain (and no pain meds). I would happily recommend and refer others to Nate.

M.

I am so pleased that I stumbled across Nate at Acute Acupuncture. Nate is highly knowledgeable and has done some incredible work to help me through my back pain associated with my herniated disk. He has opened a whole new world for me and helped me to really get in tune with and listen to my body. He works intuitively with you and your body, but also uses his obvious knowledge and experience to help you with whatever it is that your body needs. Nate makes you feel welcome and comfortable every time you visit the clinic and makes sure I am ok when I am feeling nervous about the treatments. Thank you for everything Nate! Highly recommend.

A.

Nate has been absolutely fantastic and has been helping to improve my thyroid issues and the results have been wonderful.

E.

When you enter this business you instantly feel very welcomed by the energy and I felt comfortable even though I had not been there before. I had symptoms of chronic PTSD and I would highly recommend Nate to anyone who has difficultly with PTSD. After acupuncture here at this clinic my ability to relax began to increase and am able to get a better nights sleep. I am also about to think more clearly and emotionally regulate. My nightmares which effected my mental health greatly have gone away and it is truly like having someone else's brain inside of my head and being a different person. If you are a woman and unsure about where to go, I recommend Nate he is a very professional , kind and gentle person who not make you feel uncomfortable in any way and ensure your wellbeing.

P.

I started my acupuncture journey a month or so ago with Nate, and I'm absolutely seeing the benefits. Nate is extremely knowledgable about holistic health, and wellbeing. An issue I was facing is that doctors/specialists don't take an overall approach to health, they usually focus on the physical issue, and refuse to discuss anything outside their expertise/remit. Nate helps get to the root cause of an issue, by understanding the physical, mental, spiritual and emotional sides of what could be causing your concern. I've learnt so much from him, things that doctors don't/won't explain (especially about hormone imbalances, and how these affect your overall health). Thank you so much Nate for helping me reset my mindset around health, and how to approach it on a daily basis. Can't wait for lockdown to finish so I can continue my journey with Acute Acupuncture :)

I.

After experiencing chronic back pain (specifically lower back pain) I came to Nate’s clinic. Within a few sessions my back pain was significantly reduced, and with regular treatment went away completely. I was pleased to also experience no pain over the 3 months of no acupuncture during covid lockdown. This really shows me the effective long-term healing abilities of acupuncture and Nate’s skill with this effective treatment. The experience at the clinic is a very professional, pleasant and calming one. It has a relaxed and calming environment, with beautiful plants, while still coming across very professional and clean. On my initial appointment, Nate took great care to go over my medical history, and gather lots of information to help him provide the best treatment for me, which felt very reassuring. I also like how Nate is consistently interested in my healing, and open to answering questions, and giving tips and tricks to keeping me in balance. Even as someone who can be afraid of needles, I am able to feel comfortable in Nate’s clinic, because he is relaxed but also very confident at providing acupuncture. I would definitely recommend him for anyone wanting an experienced and skilled acupuncturist. Thank you Nate!

D.

Easiest 5 star review. I definitely recommend seeing Nate for any type of injury! He's helped me with long term shoulder issues as well as a sprained ankle and sprained hamstring, all in just a few sessions. He's very thoughtful and thorough and makes sure you're comfortable before starting his sessions. Then gives great advice afterwards for quicker recovery and future prevention. If you're in doubt or unsure about where to go, book an appointment with Nate - you won't be disappointed.

T.

Nate is professional, friendly, thorough, and a real expert. I've been going for a few months (getting tui na, acupuncture and cupping) and I'm seeing incredible results in my built up stress and muscle tension. I've never liked needles but he made me feel incredibly comfortable and I look forward to my treatments every time. Nate is always happy to chat, explain my treatment in detail, or just let me relax. Prices are always very fair and transparent, too. I couldn't recommend more highly.

A.

I've had my second acupuncture treatment with Nate and I can already feel the difference. I was very sceptical before I went as I've never had acupuncture treatment before but honestly, it's the first time in a while that my back is feeling normal again. I highly recommend treatment by Nate.

W.

Excellent Experience. Nate helped me with my injured shoulder his technique and treatment method resulted in me recovering very quickly with a total of three sessions. Excellent clean premises and relaxing environment all round. Would highly recommend Nate and the team at Acute to people I know needing a quick and natural recovery. Thanks Nate for your skill in healing me. Acupuncture with Acute will be my default method of recovery going forward.

K.

Nate was fantastic, calming and his expertise got me off crutches and back in the gym. Amazing after I was a sceptic on acupuncture treatment. I recommend to everyone

P.

I've been incredibly impressed with Nate and the treatment results. I was receiving treatment from another TCM practice prior to lockdown and did not get the results I was after. After only one treatment with Nate I saw a significant change and improvement to my long existing issues. I had issues with my back, shoulder, chest and hand. After focusing on each area over a few treatments I am nearly fully recovered. I also need to mention Nate’s premise. It’s professional, calm, relaxing and most importantly clean. By far the best practice I have ever been to. Really appreciate your continued help Nate. Would recommend anyone in the Wellington area to visit Nate!!!

A.

First time using acupuncture for my health and to treat old injuries. Nathan offers a wealth of advice and solutions, as well as having a light touch. I feel quite comfortable and safe in his care and have noticed a massive improvement in my neck and shoulder issues after just one session! Nathan has been a true healer, and he is so attentive to my body that I don't even need to reveal information about an injury or incident before he is aware that the area needs work. With a mix of acupuncture, massage, and cupping, I have felt a significant improvement in my energy levels and outlook on life, and what's even more impressive, is that this has all been within the span of a week. I love his holistic approach to healing the body, and each visit leaves me feeling wholler, tension-less, and HAPPY!

P.

Awesome treatment. The first time I've done acupuncture with a pretty severe nerve injury. Progress was great and Nate makes the process very comfortable. You can tell he genuinely cares about your progress in physical well-being but also your mental state. This has been cool-as for me as I've been out of rugby for nearly three years now and that's something I really want to get back to doing. With his treatment, progress has been awesome and I'm already seeing myself back in action with rugby soon. Nate is a very easy-going person and adds well to the whole experience of Acute Acupuncture. I strongly recommend this place - great treatment, great service, great experience.

G.

Nate has been helping me for the last three months deal with post concussion symptoms and ongoing problems from whiplash. Nate is an awesome dude, super switched on, and I've found his treatments are helping me to better manage my symptoms. Cheers Nate.

D.

After googling acupuncture in Wellington, I was fortunate to find Nate at Acute Acupuncture. Nate's knowledge and professionalism is outstanding, and he has genuinely helped me with my ongoing knee issues. I can honestly say he is the best acupuncture practitioner I have ever met. After two sessions the pain I was suffering has diminished exponentially making life much easier. Thank you Nate.

K.

I came to see Nate a few months ago with a lot of pain in my legs and back. Through a combination of acupuncture, Tuina and cupping Nate has helped my pain a lot and given me lots of good tips to use at home. He always seems to know exactly what is going on, if I haven’t been sleeping well or am feeling stressed with just a quick exam and is obviously very knowledgeable. Highly recommend his services!

o.

This is one if the best acupuncture places I've been too, I come here every week to help with a back problem and everytime I leave satisfied and relaxed. The atmosphere is great and the acupuncturist is wonderful, he makes sure you're well taken care of and that you leave happy and satisfied. I recommend this place to anyone who needs any acupuncture or cupping done.

M.

Highly recommend treatment by Nate. I came to acupuncture as a last resort after injuring my foot as a result of a developing bunion. I am a runner and going three weeks without running when I’m meant to be training for Round the Bays 5 weeks away was a depressing thought but their was no hope in sight. I noticed an obvious decrease in the swelling on my foot straight after my first session. Within hours of treatment I felt good enough to run 7ks that evening followed by 8 and then 10ks all in the space of 5 days. I did not think I would get this level of healing so quickly. Nate is thorough, professional and gave me excellent insights about my injury and how acupuncture aids in healing. I am extremely grateful that I found this fabulous service and I will not hesitate to continue using Nate’s services to help me to recover from pain and injury. Thank you! Matalena

M.

Nate puts so much effort into what he does, doing continued research and investigation into new techniques; it doesn’t stop when you walk out the door, Nate regularly provides aftercare treatments; as well as ensuring his premise is professional, calm and relaxing. I have an ongoing chronic illness and had read acupuncture could help people with many of my symptoms so I looked around. I was lucky my first attempt was with Nate and I have been seeing Nate for over a year now. I have seen positive results implementing Acupuncture into my management strategy and I look forward to my sessions. Location, atmosphere, experience, treatments, customer care, after care, mental and physical benefits! *- Five out of Five and I cannot rate Nate highly enough.*

C.

I've thoroughly enjoyed every session with Nate and have been amazed at the results of the treatment. I work out regularly so often have areas of tension - after Nate's acupuncture I notice how remarkably improved my fatigued muscles feel. It's great. I would highly recommend a treatment session with Nate to others. I recently received acupuncture from Nate to assist with my smoke free journey and I'm happy to be a smoke free now. Thrilled :-)

A.

Amazing! Affordable, friendly and considerate of my pain threshold. I came in with a bulging disk and Nate was able to get me moving within a week. He always communicated what he was doing so I was never surprised by moments of pain which made an unpleasant experience as comfortable as possible. Heated massage tables are a nice touch too. Thanks Nate!

V.

Excellent treatment! Received a combination of acupuncture, cupping and tuina massage for stress related tension in my shoulders and neck. Nate Wafstet was the right balance of professional and friendly - making me feel comfortable and reassured, as this was the first time I have received acupuncture. Nate is very skilled in what he does. Excellent results - an immediate improvement in my shoulders and neck. I highly recommend.

T.

Between an old car crash, powerlifting and working in trade, I have seen my fair share of professionals (physio, chiropractor, osteopath, western acupuncturist, sport masseur...) The list goes on. Nate is simply the most efficient person I have ever met and he helped me on a tremendous level. He's a fantastic dude with tons of knowledge and I can't recommend him enough to everyone I meet. Do yourself a favour and pay him a visit!

A.

I had an acl tear in my knee and so have had issues with it over time such as cartilage damage and getting a lot of fluid in the knee. Aquapuncture has helped so much these issues. It is very effective in clearing out the fluid and repairing the strains. Has meant I can keep doing exercise if I keep on top of it with aquapuncture. Nate is very knowledgeable and does an excellent job! So thank you!

M.

Highly recommend Nate for acupuncture. I have been going to him regularly for a while now and have had significant improvement with my chronic back pain. He was very thorough finding out the source and origin of the pain. I always felt at ease and comfortable in their high end clinic, a lot better than others I have been to in the past. It’s a nice touch when you’re offered tea, coffee or mineral water before and after your treatments. The whole experience is amazing and great value for money. Thanks Nate

I.

My Sugar levels were in the high 80s. But after 3 months of treatment with Nate and taking the prescribed supplements and lifestyle changes, my sugar level is down to 59. This is a 20 point reduction. I am very happy with the results.

C.

Awesome and professional experience with Nate. Had never had accupuncture before so wasn’t sure what to expect but felt totally at ease once I got there. Nate steps you through everything. If you want someone who really cares and has an interest in their clients I highly recommend going to see Nate!

A.

I had been experiencing bad pain down my leg for weeks. The only thing that helped alleviate the pain has been the acupuncture sessions with Nate. I really appreciated how Nate took an holistic view of my injury and developed an effective strategy to alleviate the pain in my leg. I highly recommend Nate.

R.

Nate is the real deal: Thrilled I found this guy while travelling through Wellington cause he is an accomplished professional and a true expert. Having been to several dozen acupuncturists over the years in various countries from Australia, NZ, the UK and USA, Nate is up there with the best and tackled my head tension and related pain in a new, creative and unique way that many others before did not and this has produced great results and tremendous relief. His keen observation, deep knowledge, clever questions, insightful pulse analysis and tongue diagnosis all worked in concert to bring about a good shift in just 2 sessions. I have great admiration for his ability to get to the heart of the issue and deal with the emotional side that underlies the issues, too. All round, hands down, this is someone who is a gift to the clients fortunate enough to see him. Thanks!!!

K.

I’ve been seeing Nate for a few months now, and I couldn’t recommend him more! As a qualified massage therapist, I am often very sceptical of other therapists. However, I have been blown away by the knowledge and treatments I have been offered over this time. Nate has a deep understanding of the human body and health that puts me at ease. The treatments have almost completely rid me of muscular tension in places that regular massage hasn’t, along with relieving stress and aiding my overall wellbeing. Absolutely fantastic job, can’t wait to come back!

J.

I was seeing Nate for a few months, I suffer from endometriosis and other chronic pain conditions and getting acupuncture made a big difference in my every day life, I gained more movement in my body, it helped with my inflammatory and is was very effective for pain relief. Nate had a great understanding about endometriosis and other chronic pain conditions, and was able to offer great advice and was able to offer herbal remedies, such as Chinese tea. I highly recommend seeing Nate for anyone with endometriosis and other chronic pain conditions.

N.

Would 100% recommend Nate at Acute accupunture, very down to earth guy and always finds a way to help any problem. I have had problems with my lower back and hips and have previously gone to physios and other acupuncture clinics and Nate has helped so much with his in depth research he does outside of the appointment time and it really makes a difference. The clinic is clean and has a relaxing atmosphere the moment you step in the door. Knowledgable and professional practice and I would highly recommend to everyone.

A.

Not only is the clinic clean, tidy and inviting the treatment that I received for back pain was amazing. I walked away feeling refreshed, relaxed but most importantly pain free. I felt completely comfortable with Nate, as his welcoming and approachable nature put me at ease.

J.

Nate is friendly and knowledgeable. The acupuncture and massage treatments have helped with many issues including muscle and posture problems (associated with stooping over a laptop for many hours each day). The clinic is clean and welcoming. Thank you!

A.

Had a great experience With Nate at Acute Acupuncture. Had a shoulder pain going on for years after having a car crash and tried a lot of doctors and médecine... Could hardly move my arm when I went to see Nate. He was really nice and respectful and after a few appointments, managed to make me feel better. I hightly recommend him. Thanks again for your time and help! Would definitely go back. Aurélie

k.

I came to nate for my acupuncture session. I am a hairdresser and suffer with repetitive strain from my neck all the way down my right arm to my finger tips, so my main priority for going. I walk into the clinic and instantly felt relaxed its cosy and comfortable, i didnt feel over whelmed by any bright lights natural light falling through with lovely plants around the clinic. I felt very relaxed being asked a few questions and during the session too. I would recommed Acute Acupuncture to anyone thinking about it and i will definitely be returning myself.

M.

The place is extremely clean and calming. Despite its central location it is surprisingly relaxing and very quite. Nate is very knowledgeable and knows his stuff and I enjoyed my treatment there very much. I have no doubts Nate is going to be able to be more and more helpful to me in the future, as I come back for more treatment.

K.

Had some really bad varicose veins, but Nate was very helpful in bringing them down and was very helpful with info, items and things I should do to bring the veins down. Have NEVER felt this great for years, Nate brought renewed my energy and but a bounce back in my step. Would highly recommend the team at Acute Acupuncture!!

J.

The treatment provided by Nate at Acute Acupuncture was extremely beneficial for my sciatica pain. I’m 5 months pregnant and things are starting to become uncomfortable, the treatment helped with the pain and discomfort and I had one of the best night’s sleep in a long time. Would definitely recommend for any pregnancy related issues!

R.

I went to GP and Specialist without any solutions, I skeptically went to Nate and the pain improved during the session and had gone completely by the time I arrived home. He's on my phone as the Ginger Jesus because of his healing abilities.

K.

I've been going to see Nate for massage for several months. I like a strong massage and Nate is excellent in being able to provide that for me, where many others have not. Most importantly he listens and cares about you and your health. I recommend him very highly.

J.

I have been going to acute acupuncture since mid February it has helped me for my sports training and recovery. I have been seeing Nate regularly and I love the cupping and acupuncture techniques. however while playing rugby i got injured and hes helping me with my recovery to get back in the game i couldn't recommend him enough!! This is the only place ill go to now!

B.

I was having unexplained chest pains for 4 days that we’re waking me up in the night - doctors told me it was muscular and gave me all kinds of pain killers but nothing was working. It didn’t feel like it was muscular, and after getting better it got a lot worse all of a sudden after a stressful dream. After seeing Nathan for acupuncture the pains haven’t returned! I find it very hard to relax and manage my stress but I am already noticing improvement in my sessions with feeling more relaxers I am also seeing him for a leg injury and also feeling great, highly recommend. He is very friendly and professional and makes me feel safe and comfortable.

S.

This is the first time I am having acupuncture treatment for a sport injury and I am very pleased with the progress. Also very impressed with the advice I have been given and the relaxing atmosphere during the sessions.

H.

Nate knows exactly what he's doing there's absolutely no doubt in my mind! The bloke has an incredible story to tell and makes you at ease instantly with his meltingly calm voice haha. I cant thank him enough for what he done for me as I came to him in a real bad state of anxiety coupled with serious tension headaches. Your a top geezer Nate keep doing what your doing as I know you clearly love to help people. p.s. sorry its taken so long to write a review, I think this is my first ever. :)

s.

First time for acupuncture and haven't looked back after having severe tennis elbow pains. Nate diagnosed and provided me with appropriate treatment and a self managenment plan to keep me mobile. Nate takes care in looking after your well being and guiding you through your recovery step by step. Highly recommend going to see Nate at Acute Acupuncture .

k.

I had a session with Nate for my stiff neck and bloating issue. I could see instant improvements and the session was very also soothing and relaxing inspite of the needles being pierced in. I am definitely looking forward for some more sessions. I would highly recommend trying out an acupuncture treatment with Nate at Acute Acupuncture.

C.

Awesome experience! Felt great after my acupuncture and Nate gave me a lot of good info about my condition and an action plan on how we can try to improve my situation. Will be back after the Lockdown to carry on with treatments!

D.

Acupuncture with Nathan has been a great experience and I have seen good results. Highly recommend trying acupuncture to heal a variety of ailments. Nathan is professional and friendly and the needles are not as painful as you may think they would be. Looking forward to continuing treatment.

S.

Been seeing Nate regularly for a sports injury and it's been really helpful. Acute Acupuncture is a great service with quality people, really happy with going there. Location is great with plenty of parking buildings just round the corner. Highly recommended to all!

B.

I've been having back and foot issues on and off for past few years now. I was first sceptical whether accupunture would help with these problems. But after getting over the initial fear of needles, I found that acupuncture treatment has aided in my recovery. In particular I have found my movement has improved vastly since I began my treatments. I highly recommend Nate. I found him to be very thorough, had good communication and was professional at every treatment session.

M.

I have visited two Chinese Medicine practices in the past and have had appointments at the NZ school of Chinese Medicine - So I knew where and what issues were in my body. After answering a few questions, and telling Nate about some of my issues - he instantly knew what my health concerns were (spleen needed attention and 'bouncy' kidney pulse). That surprised me a lot!, Because other practitioners went through tests and analysis before they found my issues. He went over and out with my treatment as I have a lot of muscular tightness and pain. He later told and showed me that he got his Diploma with merit - which means he really knows his stuff, and has passion and confidence to start up his own clinic , on his own terms :). The patient rooms are spacious, had a wide range of needles/equipment for my needs and provided me with exercises and stretches for my pain and tightness.

B.

Nate is very welcoming, knowledgeable, and professional. He has been helping alleviate my TMJ symptoms and I've noticed considerable improvements over the last couple of months. Highly recommend his services!

E.

Second time back and feeling amazing. Nate is awesome helping me with understanding how the Accupuncture works and is helping with fertility and thyroid and is also giving me great tips with my diet which has been helping too. Would highly recomend!! Great service!

P.

This was my first ever personal contact with acupuncture in my life. I really enjoy my sessions with Nate. He helped me with acute problems instantly but some of my problems require more patience.

A.

Wonderful experience! Relaxing and professional environment. Nate has a calming presence and made sure I understood everything, making me very comfortable. I am continuing to feel the benefits. This will be a regular stop in my health and wellness. Thank you!

B.

Acupuncture and electro-acupuncture treatment is a first for me and Nate has made the whole experience very comfortable and easy. Nate very patiently answers my questions and has provided excellent and very useful advice in terms of injury treatment and ongoing management.

F.

Just had 3 treatments done by Nate at Acute including acupuncture, cups, and stretching, felt a big improvement since the first session, today after the third i feel nearly completely recovered. Highly recommanded!

B.

Nate really knows his anatomy and I find that comforting when he treats me. I walk away from every treatment in a better state than when I walked in and I continue to notice the results of treatment in the days following! Highly recommend Nate

R.

This place is a hidden gem. I went here for my chronic neck and shoulder pain for which I was talking medicines that didn't help. Nate is highly professional, patient and talented person. I have taken five to six sesssess now and there have been so many changes in my body.. My sleep had improved. Menstrual cramps for which i have suffered for more than 15 years have gone. Neck pain has reduced. I have sessions pending and am so relieved and happy that i am already feeling the difference..

G.

I went to the docters in lots of pain. They could not help me so i found Nate at Acute Acupuncture. Im now pain free and back to living life normaly! I highly recomend Nates skills as an acupuncturist!

J.

Came in last minute off a cruise ship with sciatica on a public holiday. Left with no pain and much better mobility. Nate was extremely helpful and friendly. Can't recommend him enough

J.

I really enjoyed my appointment with Natalie. It was my first Tuina massage and she really helped my sore back with it's kniggly bits. It was the best massage I've ever had, and knowing it was helping my sore back while being relaxing at the same time felt amazing.

N.

This is the first time I'm having acupuncture treatment,,,I feel comfortable and very relaxing,,the music healing my body, mind and soul,, Thank You so much Nate🙏,, highly recommend 👌👍👍

L.

Really impressed with the results from just one session. I've been dealing with pain from a torn calf muscle for over 4yrs and after just one session it stopped. Genuinely shocked and relieved cause it had been a part of my life for so long. Definitely worth the price and will be replacing the monthly massages I get due a variety of injuries with acupuncture

H.

I have been getting treatment from Riki for some months now as I was experiencing severe headaches. Riki has been extremely understanding and helpful with explaining to me why my headaches were severe and the correct treatment for them. He has also done cupping on my back and deep tissue massages to help relieve stress along my shoulders. I would highly recommend Riki, I couldn't imagine going anywhere else for accupuncture :)

A.

Nate is very good listener, communicative and amazing acupuncturist. After my first session I was feeling great. Highly recommended!!

E.

Super efficient from the first session, healed my scar super quickly and visibly and helped a lot with all the soreness my injured body was going through. Physio said he had never seen such a quick recovery after ACL rupture. Back at kickboxing a year and a bit after initial injury.

R.

Very professional and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable as Nathan is a well trained and educated. He also listened to my concerns and was very easy to talk to. Nice clinic in a great location. Easy to walk to from work.

r.

I had a wonderful massage today with Natalie - I was very sore after playing tennis and came away feeling so much better. She finished the session with some relaxation massage - I nearly fell asleep! HIghly recommended.

F.

I came in to see Nate for some accupuncture due to sore ears and not being able to equalize for months. It's in sane how much better I feel after just one session. Thanks so much Nate. I will be back:)

S.

Have been receiving acupuncture treatment from Riki for a few months now. I really enjoy it! A number of my old problems have been treated well by Riki's capable hands. Definitely recommend this place to my friends!

M.

A few months ago I began to suffer a strong pain in my neck, arm and wrist. No conventional painkillers ( Panadeine, Codeine neurofen, anti- inflamatories ) were able to provide a relief from that pain. On recommendation of a friend, I visited the Acute Acupuncture clinic in Wellington. Having had just 3/4 sessions, provided by an acupuncture specialist Mr. Nate Wafstet, I realized that painkillers have become effective in reducing the adverse effect of the pain. Also the application of a Capsicum Plaster gives an additional pain relief. I continue my treatment at the Acute Acupuncture clinic and I am very grateful to Nate Wafstet for all his professional help and consideration. Mila G.

Incredible acupuncture! He really knows what he is doing. I was passing through and needed some acupuncture ASAP and he made sure to look after me. I have had a lot of acupuncture over the years but nothing like this. First time I felt like I had actually been zapped by lightening from a trigger point multiple times. Very thorough work. Wish I lived in the area to come back multiple times!!

R.

Luckily, I found Nate’s Acute Acupuncture through treatme. I have been treated by his master-level of tranditional Chinese acupuncture skills and intuition. Highly recommended to people who are looking for a Master-Level Acuputurist around Wellington CBD!

Nate was very good fixing my calf injury, including Chinese massage and acupuncture. Generous with his time and knowledgeable.

I loved it! Got a voucher on grabone. Worth every cent. Was great experience from start to finish. Learnt a lot from Nate about my health and wellbeing which was awesome! Was so kind and gave me some bee’s wax and metal spring rings (not sure of proper name 😅) for my anxiety. Going to be telling my my friends and family to come here! Thanks so much for an awesome experience!! 😁😁 Will defs being coming back!

J.

It was the first time for me to try acupuncture. Nathan answered all the questions I had and didn't rush. He took time to ask me questions to make sure I'll receive the appropriate treatment. The location is right in the cbd which is convenient. I'll definitely come back for another treatment.

I sprained my back in March, and friend recommended I see Nate at Acute. I saw immediate and progressive improvement in range of motion, and pain reduction. Nate’s treatment had me moving easier that resulted in a quick recovery. Highly recommended.

B.

(Translated) Nate is kind and always considers guests. Acupuncture technology is first-rate. My left upper arm was injured, I couldn't touch my back, and I felt pain in raising my hand. After Nate's acupuncture, cupping, and massage, my left upper arm felt much better after the third treatment. He suggested that I could apply some active oil and gave me some ointments to the painful area, the treatment effect would be even better! The environment of his clinic is clean and elegant. During the treatment, he will play some melodious music to relax guests. I basically recovered after seven or eight treatments, thank you Nate! (Original) Nate为人和善，时刻为客人着想，针灸技术一流。我的左上臂伤了，不能触摸背部，向上举手也感到疼痛。经过Nate的针灸、拔罐、推拿，第三次治疗后我的左上臂就感觉好了很多了。他建议我可以搽些活络油，还给了我一些药膏贴在疼痛的地方，治疗效果就更好了！ 他的诊所环境干净又优雅，在治疗的时候他会播放一些悠扬的音乐，让客人身心放松！ 我经过七、八次的治疗后就基本恢复了，谢谢Nate!
