Our care team

Iris Netzer-Greenfield, L.Ac. / D.O.M. / Chinese Herbalist, Founder

I’m Iris. I’ve been practicing acupuncture for over 20+ years. My training has involved working with men and women who have found a new balance through Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. Since I was little, I’ve always had a profound interest in the human body. The Eastern perspective of life-balance (yin/yang) resonates with me, in everything I do personally and professionally. At Acupuncture Remedies we offer female focused treatments, an eclectic mix of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Japanese-style treatments.  My healing approach is drawn from my education, clinical experience and intuition. I am also trained in Soliman Auricular Allergy Treatment (SAAT), a newly introduced powerful technique that provides the longest relief from allergy symptoms.

I’ve come a long way since my post graduate years. My ‘rags to riches’ story began in a converted utility closet. Thankfully, patients were understanding and paid no mind to its modest size. By virtue of hard work, my (then) simple practice has expanded to what is now a beautiful treatment center with a skillful team of healers who offer personalized care – an ideology that I/we safeguard! Our patients seek help with a wide range of acute and chronic ailments, including pain management, digestive disorders, migraines and display continued signs of improvement through customized treatment plans. Our scope also includes modalities such as Cupping, Moxa, and Gua Zha. My team and I understand that, for many, acupuncture is a new concept. We welcome veterans, newcomers, traditional and non-traditional families.

I hold a Masters of Science degree in Oriental Medicine from Samra University in Los Angeles. I am licensed by the State(s) of California, New York and Connecticut. When I’m not in Manhattan, I maintain office hours closer to home. Noa Health & Acupuncture in Westport, Connecticut is the sister practice to Acupuncture Remedies and I also have an office in Ridgefield, CT .

I look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,

Iris M. Netzer-Greenfield M.S, L.Ac.

Kim Schwartz-Finkelstein, L.AC., MSTOM, and Chinese Herbalist

I’m Kim. I have committed myself to helping people achieve optimum health through Chinese Medicine for over a decade. I hold a Masters of Science degree in Traditional Oriental Medicine (MSTOM) from Pacific College in New York City. I am licensed in Acupuncture and I am also board-certified in Chinese herbal medicine.

My method of practice is based on the most essential belief in Chinese Medicine; restoration of the balance between body and mind is the key to wellness. Drawing on various styles of acupuncture (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) and other holistic modalities, I create individualized treatments that are designed specifically for each person. Acupuncture, Chinese herbs, nutritional supplements, and lifestyle recommendations are combined to enhance your treatment and speed healing.
I work with a variety of conditions, including women’s issues, (fertility, PCOS, menstrual irregularities, menopausal symptoms) pain management, addictive disorders, (smoking cessation, weight issues) migraines, insomnia, stress reduction, and allergies. I’m one of the few acupuncturists qualified in pediatric acupuncture, so one may assume that I’m gentle, which I am. Iris and I have been working together over 10-years. Together along with Iris, Karen and Aaron we are committed to continuing a tradition of excellence and to helping each patient individually to achieve optimum results.

Karen Grzelewski, D.Ac, L.Ac.

I’m Karen. Before becoming a healer I worked in print and television news producing, reporting and designing various reports. All that hard work led to an injury that was resistant to any remedy western medicine could provide and it seemed as though surgery might be the only option left. My chiropractor suggested I try acupuncture and referred me to someone she knew. I went not expecting anything and within 3 visits…no more pain.

I was so taken with this medicine that I decided to study it and so, here I am with one goal in mind…to help you feel amazing. Lifestyle counseling, reproductive health, stress management and pain relief are the focus of my practice.

I hold a Masters of Science in Acupuncture from Pacific College in New York and a certificate in Intrapersonal Counseling Psychology from Sophia University in Palo Alto, CA. I am licensed to practice acupuncture in New York and New Jersey. My Doctorate in Acupuncture was conferred in August 2021. I enjoy serving this community and working alongside this wonderful team of amazing healers.

Janelle Belgrave, L.Ac.

After nearly pursuing post-graduate studies in Marriage and Family therapy, I realized I wanted to support people’s healing processes in a more hands-on manner but was unsure where to begin. Thanks to a serendipitous suggestion to consider Chinese medicine, I began my journey towards acupuncture and enrolled in the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in 2008.


My specialty is linking psycho-emotional and spiritual disorders to their manifestation in the mental and physical body. I educate patients on the interconnected nature of their overall health and believes that a gentle yet firm push in the right healing direction is a key component to helping patients feel faster relief.


In my spare time, I enjoy art, music, and dance, and can usually be found within nature, being a plant maven, and studying astrology. 


I am excited to add my skills and talents to Acupuncture Remedies’ team and to share in their collective wisdom and expertise to offer space for peace and healing to all practice members.
