Stone Flower Mountain Acupuncture is nestled within the Catskill Mountains in West Hurley, NY (just minutes from historic Woodstock). We offer acupuncture, NAET allergy elimination, Chinese herbal medicine, and nutritional counseling, in a calm, relaxed setting. The focus is on the whole person and their unique health concerns.
The Stone Flower Mountain is a sacred mountain located in a rural village named Taishan, in southeastern China. It is in this rural village that Abbey Semel first began to study acupuncture with a local Taishanese doctor. Our practice is named after this sacred place as a reminder of the Chinese roots of our acupuncture and healing treatments.
