Facial Acupuncture & Facial Reiki in NYC – Natural Radiance & Energetic Glow at The Shaman NYC


At The Shaman NYC, beauty is more than skin deep—it’s the reflection of inner harmony, emotional freedom, and radiant energy. Through our unique Facial Acupuncture and Facial Reiki sessions, we invite you to restore balance, awaken glow, and release years of stress from both your face and spirit.

Located in the heart of Manhattan, near SoHo, Tribeca, Midtown, Bryant Park, and the Upper East Side, our sacred healing space offers a holistic and deeply rejuvenating approach to facial wellness. Led by world-renowned healer Niko Karelas, these sessions are perfect for anyone seeking natural anti-aging, emotional release, and energetic alignment.

What is Facial Acupuncture?

Facial Acupuncture is an ancient technique that uses ultra-fine needles to stimulate specific points on the face, improving circulation, boosting collagen production, and reducing fine lines—all without surgery, injectables, or toxins. More than cosmetic, facial acupuncture also addresses the underlying imbalances affecting your skin, mood, and energy levels.

It’s non-invasive, calming, and holistic, treating not only the face but the whole body’s energy system.

What is Facial Reiki?

Facial Reiki is a gentle, hands-on healing technique that channels life-force energy into the face and head, clearing emotional tension, lifting stagnant energy, and leaving your face glowing from the inside out.

Where facial acupuncture works through meridian points and physical stimulation, Facial Reiki works through energy—releasing stored stress in the jaw, temples, brow, and heart field. It’s like a facial for your aura, with real emotional and physical results.

Benefits of Facial Acupuncture & Facial Reiki at The Shaman NYC

Whether you choose one or experience both together, these facial healing sessions offer profound results:

  • Natural lift and tone without Botox or fillers

  • Boost in collagen and elastin production

  • Smoother, more radiant skin

  • Reduction in puffiness and facial tension

  • Emotional release and nervous system calm

  • Energetic clearing of the face, heart, and throat chakras

  • Relief from TMJ, sinus issues, and eye strain

  • Glow that radiates from within

This is conscious beauty—free from chemicals, aligned with your soul, and rooted in ancient healing.

A Unique Facial Healing Experience in NYC

Unlike standard cosmetic acupuncture clinics or medspas, The Shaman NYC offers a sacred, multi-dimensional experience. From the moment you enter, you’re held in a space designed for spiritual, physical, and emotional alignment.

Our studio is infused with sacred geometry, crystals, warm lighting, essential oils, and a serene color palette of purple, teal, black, and gold. Every detail is curated to invite you into a deeper state of rest, beauty, and self-love.

Your session is guided by Niko Karelas, whose rare combination of Eastern medicine training and intuitive energy work has helped thousands experience transformation inside and out.
