Michelle Pereira is a New York State licensed acupuncturist. Michelle has a passion for healing through song and stories, which initially led her to pursue a more than 20 year career as a professional, singer, dancer and actor. Rigorous physical and mental demands of touring, unhealthy eating, sleep deprivation, and a grueling performance schedule reaped havoc on her health, career and personal life. Becoming frustrated with the limitations of western medicine, she found acupuncture was the best way to keep her instrument tuned: voice, body, mind and spirit.
After her own personal experience with the therapeutic power of acupuncture, she devoted the past 5 1/2 years learning from the top practitioners in the field.
Michelle strives to create a safe, comfortable and open environment for her patients. It would be her privilege to utilize her knowledge and practice to encourage and empower her patients to slide into the front seat of their wellness journey.
Michelle graduated at the top of her class with a Master’s of Science degree in Acupuncture from Pacific College of Health and Science in New York City and holds a BFA from The Boston Conservatory of Music.
