Philadelphia Mind-Body Acupuncture. - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I have a lot of chronic pain and other issues from an autoimmune condition, and come here regularly for support managing my symptoms. Dr. Aaron Cashman and Dr. Mary Gagliardi are both very attentive, knowledgeable, and experts in their field. I went to a couple of acupuncturists before them, and none had helped me nearly as much. They have a great space with good equipment and I think that adds a lot to the experience. Out of all the doctors that take my insurance, these two probably do the most to keep my illness in check and help me recover after a flare. I'm thankful every day that they're here doing what they do.

I recommend visiting both acupuncturists you're checking out this practice, as they have pretty different techniques and approaches and you may be more drawn to one than the other. I usually see Dr. Cashman as he's a little more aggressive/more needles in his approach which is great for my back pain, but Dr. Gagliardi has some very cool techniques I'd never tried before, and a gentler approach that I think could resonate more depending on your needs. They've both helped me a lot, and I don't think you can go wrong with any visit to this practice.

I have seen Dr. Cashman once a week for the last six months or so and the transformation in my healing has been nothing short of a miracle. I have something called AVN which is avascular necrosis, which has caused my weight-bearing bones in my ankle to begin to crumble. It was caused from long term steroids I had to be on for the treatment of leukemia 40 years ago. Regretfully it has caught up with me, and although I will need full ankle replacement surgery in three weeks, the peace of mind and pain relief he has given me has been phenomenal. I often go to his office with a pain Level of eight and leave with a pain level of two. Once I went in with a migraine and left with no headache at all!
He is the kindest doctor I know in the world. His patience is endless, His determination to provide you with the best possible outcome is his lifetime goal. His incredible experience around the world, coupled with his passion for healing, makes a visit to his office worth every cent! There's no price tag when you can get pain relief from something that is tried and true and tested for thousands and thousands of years. If you're on the fence about whether it will work for you, give it a try and be open to the possibility. It will forever change your life!

The place is so beautiful and peaceful! Just seating in the waiting room made me feel better.
The massage from Gina was outstanding, she took the time to find all the points that needed to be worked on, and I felt much better just after one session.

Dr. Mary Gagliardi is just wonderful. Truly a passionate, caring and knowledgeable practitioner who has been immensely helpful to me.

I initially scheduled my first appointment to treat historic nerve pain in my neck and shoulder but then was diagnosed with an emergent concurrent GI concern. Dr. Gagliardi recommended helpful supplements and offered supportive treatments to help make me feel more comfortable as I was dealing with a lot of inflammation. I see her at least once a week and consider her treatments essential to my well-being.

I can't recommend Dr. Gagliardi enough. My husband now sees her for his chronic pain and she is helping him also.

I have an issue with sinus congestion, irritated throat, phlegm and allergy for almost 3 years. I am allergy to dust, mites, dog & cats fur, different kind of weeds. I may have certain food allergies (which I didnt recognize in the past, but currently trying to do food elimination to help with my treatment). I cough everytime I have meal and brush my teeth. I went to see GI doctor, ENT doctor, did many different tests with the hope “to be diagnosed” with something. Everything came out fine. But I still cough and there is so much phlegm under my throat everytime I eat, and I need to rely on anti histamine for a very long time. One of my friend told me about acupuncture that would naturally heal my body. I went searching for the reliable acupuncture place and found Mind Body Acupuncture.

Dr.Mary Gagliardi is just wonderful! I met her and shared with her all of my problems. She is calm, knowledgeable, attentive, supportive and truly a passionate practitioner. She gave me weekly treatment and always asked me how I felt everytime I met her. I believe I am just going the half way through and can’t say that the allergy totally goes away, but I definitely felt better after 3-4 treatments. The herbs that Dr.Mary gave me also help me feel more comfortable (along with acupuncture), my throat is less irritated and I was being able to breathe better. Dr.Mary also helped me reschedule my treatment when I was busy with my crazy schedule, in just a few minutes. I was able to text her whenever I have questions and she would get back to me within a same day!

The office is nice, calm, clean, not overcrowded and smells good! Mind Body has been my favourite place to come to take a short break. If there are other health issues that I get and are on the treatment list, I would keep coming to Mind Body!

I have received acupuncture for over 20 years from several different places. Mind-Body is a clean peaceful environment. Dr. Mary has helped me with pain and for the first time, I find acupuncture relaxing. I look forward to every visit. Plus she takes my insurance.

Dr. Mary Gagliardi has been truly amazing. My back pain has significantly improved since starting under her treatment.

Amanda Garcia

Can’t recommend this practice and Dr. Mary more strongly; I am a true acupuncture novice, but was looking for a way to ease my consistent headaches and hopefully help build consistent sleep patterns. Not only have both issues shown significant improvement in my first month of weekly appointments, but I’m even working with Dr. Mary on secondary fertility flows as well.
She has been a graceful, calming, knowledgeable presence in my weeks since I started at the practice, and I’m excited to continue my acupuncture journey here going forward. The team is always willing to explain anything and everything, and I don’t feel pressured into anything I don’t want to try. Take the leap - you won’t regret it!
