Ofir Tal, L.Ac.

Ofir Tal is a licensed acupuncturist and practitioner of Chinese medicine with years of experience. He is dedicated to helping patients pursue their best possible health and well-being through acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, Shiatsu and other holistic therapies.

Ofir holds a diploma in Ancient Chinese Medicine (ACM) from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel. His clinical approach draws on Stems and Branches, CCTM as taught by master Peter Van Kervel, Five Elements, Mirroring, and The Complete Meridian System as taught by Cody Dodo and master Jeffrey Yuen.

He is certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and is licensed in acupuncture by the State of New York.

Ofir is also a certified Level 2 Tao Shiatsu therapist, trained by Galit Shaviv at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He is a certified Bach Flower Remedies practitioner, trained by Orly Friedlander and The World Bach Center; Bach flower remedies are part of his approach to emotional pain and imbalance.

His training in pediatric Chinese medicine includes study with Dr. Gali Shtofman, Aram Tzaig and Efrat Abramson. He has also trained in Chinese medicine approaches to fertility and pregnancy with practitioners Miriam Raich and Anat Tzahar.

Ofir offers cosmetic facial acupuncture and rejuvenation treatments. He works with patients experiencing headaches, weakness and immune concerns, pain, emotional imbalance, anxiety, gynecological concerns, digestive issues, sleep difficulties and other health concerns.

In addition to his training in Chinese medicine, Ofir successfully completed training in Israel and became certified to practice WATSU®, a gentle form of aquatic bodywork performed in a warm-water pool. The practitioner supports and guides the body through flowing movements, gentle stretches and Shiatsu-inspired touch. Small flotation supports create a soothing sense of weightlessness, allowing the recipient to let go of effort and settle into deep relaxation as the water gently holds the body.

In Ofir’s approach, WATSU is an invitation to pause, breathe and let go. As the water supports the body and movement unfolds gently, a space for stillness and awareness emerges. It is a moment to set aside effort, surrender to the feeling of floating and simply be.
