Owner and lead acupuncturist, Ani Baran, L.ac was born in Yerevan Armenia, and moved to New Jersey at the age of three.

Growing up in Fort Lee, she then attended Fordham University for pre-med studies, and then Columbia University for research — but she knew deep down she wanted to help people more naturally. As the opioid epidemic and crisis began to peak, her calling weighed heavily on her heart and so she began researching natural pain relief options instead.

Thus, she took her passion for biology and healing and trained to become an L.ac — a licensed acupuncturist. With these credentials, she gained over 2000 hours of training, passed all necessary exams, studied Chinese medicine theory, and spent over three years honing her clinical skills.

After marrying her husband Mike and moving to Bayonne who was born and raised in town, she opened both NJ Acupuncture Center locations and has never looked back. Ani is the proud mother of three children under the age of 5.

Truly loving her job, she says the best part of her job is how, “I get to help others become pain free, assist in their pregnancy goals, manage their stress, all different treatments but the end result is a side effect free therapy for their concerns.”

Most rewarding to Ani, is helping couples achieve their fertility goals through supportive acupuncture. “I love being able to be part of their journey through a very special time.”

While many may seem apprehensive to try acupuncture for the first time, Ani says, “Once you give it a try you’ll never want to stop! It’s an amazing feeling, your body being recharged and reenergized, you’ll always want to feel that way!

Hi, my name is Min Liu and I am delighted to introduce myself as an experienced acupuncturist with a passion for promoting holistic well-being.

From a young age, I was amazed by a famous antient acupuncture master HuaTuo who invented acupuncture anesthesia for surgery and using acupuncture to treat a wide range of diseases. This fascination led me to embark on a journey of education and training in acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine. I am proud to hold a degree in Acupuncture from FuJian University Of TCM, where I honed my skills and gained a deep understanding of the principles that underpin this ancient healing art.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of helping numerous individuals achieve their optimal health. Whether it’s addressing chronic pain, managing stress and anxiety, or supporting fertility and women’s health, I am dedicated to tailoring each treatment plan to the unique needs of my patients. I believe in the power of acupuncture to stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms, restore balance, and promote overall wellness.

I continuously update my knowledge and techniques to provide the highest level of care to my patients. I believe that knowledge is an essential component of well-being, and I also take the time to explain the principles behind acupuncture and the rationale for each treatment.

I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve my community as an acupuncturist and to witness the transformative power of this ancient healing art in the lives of my patients.

Thank you for considering me as your partner on your path to wellness. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you on your journey toward optimal health and vitality.
