These are my Google Reviews, all 5 Star! Some have been copied from another public website. as Google had moved my reviews and incorporated them into City Osteopaths reviews as we shared the same address (back then). In February 2023 Google fixed this issue, and gave me a ‘stamp’ for being one of the top-reviewed acupuncture businesses.

Janine’s care, skill, and warm approach make her a stand-out acupuncture practitioner. She’s calm, a great listener and you’ll feel confident in her hands. I can’t recommend Janine highly enough.

Peter M. February 2024
Janine has been a massive help; researching my condition and offering practical help. As a result, my inner ear problems have pretty much cleared. I’m very grateful

Samantha O. February 2024
Superbly helpful and skilled!

Sally G. February 2024
I have seen Janine a number of times and I always leave feeling fabulous. She is very good at explaining what she’d like to do and why. She considers the full picture of my well-being, rather than just the one particular issue I might be concerned with. Her holistic healing and clear passion for health will keep me coming back.

Mark D. August 2023
For professionalism, an understanding of the body’s anatomical working (important), being able to discuss in ‘layman’s terms, and look at the bigger picture, then Janine Nana from City Acupuncture is #SecondToNone and #WalksTheTalk.
From cupping to Acupuncture, and a multitude of options in her toolbox, Janine will have something to relieve pain, and get the individual back on their feet and moving forward.
After ten-plus years of utilising Janine’s skills when in need, I wouldn’t/couldn’t look at going anywhere else.

Jessica B. July 2023
Janine is absolutely amazing! I was doing a cycle of IVF and had heard of the benefits of acupuncture before the embryo transfer. Janine was incredibly accommodating, fitting me in last minute and right before the transfer (timing everything to perfection and taking into account all the pre-transfer requirements). Janine was so lovely throughout, ensuring I was relaxed and calm before the transfer. Unfortunately, my husband stuffed up the post-appointment timings, but we couldn’t believe how incredibly calm I was – it was because of Janine and how effective she is! Inserting needles at points to calm me clearly worked wonders! The embryo transfer was also successful so I am so grateful for Janine, and her knowledge, experience, and practice. I would recommend her to anyone!

Stacey L. July 2023

I highly recommend her acupuncture expertise in supporting fertility and believe it made a big difference for me. Thanks again, Janine!

Francesca F. Apri 2023
Janine is a passionate, skilled, professional, and caring human being who supported me through a very challenging fertility journey. I enjoyed neuropuncture and felt immediately re-energized after the first session. Janine is endowed with a warm attitude paired with significant experience and expertise to treat many conditions. Results matter: I am 46 and 5 weeks pregnant.

Oskar S. April 2023

Janine is an incredible acupuncturist. She has a wonderful warm manner that immediately puts you at ease, and is knowledgeable on a vast array of issues that concern the body. I have continued to refer people her way since attending her practice and all have said the same. Look no further if you’re looking for someone to help with your aches and pains.

Mel M. April 2023

I have been seeing Janine for acupuncture at City Osteopaths for many years. I have seen her for many different things – ranging from injuries to stress. Janine is very professional and calm.

Janine has a very calming and supportive presence. I was nervous about having acupuncture and she really helped me feel safe and relaxed. Her treatment really helped.

Andre C. March 2023
Janine treated me very successfully for Bell’s Palsy. She is an excellent acupuncturist and is a very caring and gentle person. I know what I am talking about as I am an acupuncturist myself, and am quite picky about who I see. I highly recommend Janine.

Emma L. March 2023
Janine combines such incredibly gentle and kind care with her amazing knowledge and expertise. She explained everything she was doing and why in a way that I could understand. I am so grateful to be pain-free and won’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone!

Lesina W. November 2022
Janine is fantastic and I cannot recommend her enough. Janine is extremely knowledgeable and the treatment and support that she has provided me over the past 10 months has been invaluable. The Reception Team at City Osteopaths are always welcoming and friendly as well.

Bex S.   November 2022
Janine Nana is an absolutely amazing acupuncturist based out of City Osteopaths. I’ve been seeing her for the past year to support my fertility and IVF journey. She is kind, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable, and professional. . She literally works magic (after just a couple of treatments she regulated my normally lengthy menstrual cycle. I was in utter disbelief – amazing stuff!). I always enjoy our conversations and leave my appointments feeling calm and relaxed. If you have any reservations about trying acupuncture, ditch them ASAP and put your full trust in Janine. She’s wonderful.

Louise Odin  November 2022
I’m seeing both Venla and Janine and I’m very happy with their service! Venla is an osteo with a soft approach and will not make you crack unless you really need it! She always gives me useful stretches to do at home which really helped with my back/neck issue. I’m also seeing Janine for the acupuncture, which I had never tried before. Janine took the time to explain how acupuncture works which was much appreciated, and she always make sure I’m comfortable during the session. Overall, I highly recommend City Osteopaths.

Alice Richards September 2022
I highly recommend Janine Nana (acupuncture) and Nikki Spiers (massage) at City Osteopaths.

Nikki is a very skilled massage therapist and genuinely caring person who has seen – and fixed – me multiple times. I recommend seeing Nikki for all your massage needs.

Janine saw me in the lead-up to an IVF cycle and I followed her advice on when and how to build acupuncture around my embryo transfers. I became pregnant in 2 out of 2 transfers and will be back if we do another. Janine is a very warm and lovely person who knows her stuff.

I’ve had nothing but great experiences at City Osteopaths.

Vesna F. 17 march 2022, 4:54 am

Ole M. 6 January 2022, 11:54 pm
Totally recommend seeing Janine Nana, the acupuncturist at City Osteopaths. Really helped with my sciatica, and enabled me to travel comfortably back to Auckland, as I had real trouble sitting. Totally professional but also empathetic, she explains everything as she goes about getting you comfortable and helping you through your issues.
Company’s official reply 7 January 2022, 6:25 am
You’re so welcome. Thanks for your review Ole!

Nicole H. 1 december 2021, 1:11 am

I was particularly impressed with the induction treatments and largely credit a fantastic birth experience due to these treatments.

Thanks for Your lovely review, Nicole. I’m happy that your birth experience was fantastic.

Katie C. 29 november 2021, 7:13 am
Janine is clearly an expert in her field. She gives great advice and makes you feel at ease. She not only helps through acupuncture but also includes supplement advice, tailored to your needs. Each session has been great. She has made available for me at short notice. I would highly recommend her to all!

Thanks, Katie for smile your review gave me. Your review is very much appreciated.

Ignacio Z. 17 november 2021, 10:24 pm
Janine is a very nice and professional person. When I started acupuncture treatment with her, I could hardly move because of the pain in my back, but with her experience, she knew how to handle the problem. The results were amazing since after each session my body was improving incredibly. I never tried acupuncture before and if in the future I have any problems, I will definitely visit her again. I highly recommend it, thank you very much, Janine.
Company’s official reply 17 November 2021, 11:32 pm
Thank you Ignacio. It’s always a pleasure to see you. I’m very happy treatments are helping you to have less pain.

Andrea C. 15 november 2021, 6:16 am

Company’s official reply 1 november 2021, 1:56 am
Thanks for your lovely review! I’m happy you’re feeling better.

Lisa W. 29 october 2021, 2:22 am
I was recommended to visit Janine late in my pregnancy as she specialises in maternity acupuncture/moxibustion. I found her to not only be kind and caring but very professional. She invited my fiancé to join me for a session to show him acupressure points for labour. We found this very useful and enjoyed that she wanted to give us strategies for him to be even more actively involved in the birthing process. I would highly recommend Janine to anyone, not only those seeking maternity care.
Company’s official reply 1 November 2021, 1:01 am
Thanks for the review Lisa. It was a pleasure treating you in late pregnancy. And great that your partner learned how to support you during labour.

Luke C. 28 October 2021, 1:04 pm
I sustained a back injury and with the professionalism and expert knowledge of Janine in acupuncture I made a quick recovery. I can’t recommend her enough.

Thanks Jess. It was a pleasure meeting you and treating you.

Vanessa P. 29 september 2021, 8:30 am
I saw Janine when I was traveling to Wellington for fertility treatment. She went above and beyond to accommodate me around the timing of my procedure & she even walked me to a shortcut so I could get to the fertility clinic quicker! She has amazing knowledge about fertility & I feel confident her input has helped with my pregnancy.
Company’s official reply 1 November 2021, 3:13 am
Thank you Vanessa. My fertility patients are special to me.

Hannah C. 29 september 2021, 7:41 am
I started seeing Janine for acupuncture to help with stress management and fertility issues and can’t recommend her enough. She’s so knowledgeable and genuinely cares for those she treats. Very happy with the results I’ve seen since working with her.
Company’s official reply 1 November 2021, 3:14 am
Thanks, Hannah. I’m happy to have helped you.

Harriet Y. 3 August 2021, 6:12 am
I couldn’t speak more highly of the treatment and incredible results I have received from Janine’s acupuncture. She is a true expert in her field and has the most calming, relaxing, and reassuring nature. After only a couple of sessions with her, I was successful in conceiving. Throughout pregnancy, aches and pains have been eased making for a much more comfortable final few weeks. If you are struggling with fertility issues I would highly recommend you see Janine.
Company’s official reply 1 November 2021, 3:15 am
Thanks, Harriet. Your review is much appreciated. I’m happy to have helped!

Rhonnie a. 20 june 2021, 5:49 am
Janine completely turned around a rough day for me after a very negative consultation experience at a different acupuncturist. Janine fit me in immediately even though she was fully booked, made me feel so at ease, gave me the labour induction session I needed as well as some acupressure tips for labour and the day after my treatment, I went into labour! The whole experience was so overwhelmingly positive. I would highly recommend her!
Company’s official reply 1 November 2021, 3:15 am
Thank you Rhonnie. I’m so happy I had a spare room and was able to look after you. Your review is much appreciated.

EL A. 1 april 2021, 7:12 am
Janine is so kind and very accommodating. She helped me before and after my embryo transfer day, no matter how busy she was, she find ways that she can accommodate me. And now I’m very happy to say that I’m Pregnant! Thank u, Janine.
I believe that acupuncture doubles the Chances of a woman conceiving with IVF. I can’t thank her enough.
Company’s official reply 1 November 2021, 3:17 am
Thanks for the lovely review! Embryo transfers are a special time.

Maia W. 7 november 2019, 7:23 am
I would highly recommend (Janine). I have been for two fertility reasons and both times were successful. The last was to aid labour naturally so I wouldn’t have to be induced. The night after the third session I started to feel contractions, less than 24 hours later and my baby arrived. Janine was amazing and professional and the tips she gave for my partner to use for acupressure during labour were great.

Jo M. 27 July 2018, 1:50 am
Janine is such a wonderful lady. So intuitive and understanding of your body chi and it’s needs. It’s so relaxing being under her care.

Judy T. 18 June 2018, 2:15 am
Janine’s in-depth knowledge and experience, kind, gentle, and understanding manner have, without exaggeration, been lifesaving for a friend. Without Janine, I hate to think how much worse my friend would be. Thank you Janine

Sue S. 7 March 2018, 3:19 am
Janine is a very experienced Acupuncturist, with a kind, gentle way about her. She gets good results and I would recommend her.

Tia C. 12 July 2017, 5:08 am
Janine is amazing, with great service, and great results!

Nina F. 10 may 2017, 7:03 am
I’m so glad I met with Jane about fertility — she gave me better information than I have received elsewhere and I didn’t realise what I was missing. I now have confidence I’m on the right track with her approach. I am more than happy to recommend her service — she is also absolutely lovely and loves what she does.

Katrina S. 26 March 2017, 5:45 pm
Janine has a warm, caring and thoughtful way about her. I found her online when I knew I would be traveling to New Zealand for fertility treatments. She was very flexible in scheduling with me and worked it so that I could have treatments before and after crucial stages of my IVF procedure. I’m now 20 weeks pregnant after five years of trying and many other failed rounds of IVF. Who knows why and how it finally worked, but I like to think Janine had something to do with it. Would highly recommend…

Jane v. 23 March 2017, 7:46 am
Janine has an in-depth knowledge of her subjects and is very passionate about her work. She is very kind and

Hana M. 19 february 2017, 11:34 pm
The best place to go for acupuncture in Wellington. Janine is very kind, knowledgeable and goes out of her way to answer any questions and explain everything. Acupuncture has been really helpful for me — would definitely recommend.

Janine has a very calming and supportive presence. I was nervous about having acupuncture and she really helped me feel safe and relaxed. Acupuncture is great!

Kathryn G. 15 february 2017, 12:42 am
Janine has a wonderful ability to make you feel you are in good hands and really understand what you need. She has a beautiful space and you come away feeling better.

The following testimonials were emailed to me vs. Google Reviews. I have been edited to comply with section 58 of the Medicines Act.  The reasoning behind this is that the act believes that testimonials are almost always anecdotal without professional observation and without relevant objective scientific indicators. So while I can make people feel comfortable, display knowledge and instill confidence in my patients, they can not say my treatment helped. I was given this Top Revies NZ logo to use as my Google reviews are many.

Anita was a patient of Fertility Associates “I went to see Janine when I started IVF, as I had read that acupuncture has been proven to increase the rate of IVF success.  Janine has a lovely serenity about her and I quickly felt comfortable talking about what had become an increasingly stressful situation.  She had clearly undertaken extensive research into infertility and the range of treatments available, from both the ‘medical’ and ‘alternative’ perspectives.  She worked out a program of acupuncture that supported the different stages of IVF treatment. I felt a lot less stressed.  She talked me through the program and adjusted it from time to time depending on what was going on. Janine’s calm and supportive approach was also a great help, and she recommended a supplement to support the development of healthy eggs.

I had a high number of viable eggs for my age (I was 40 at that point), a much higher-than-average number of viable embryos, and I am now 31 weeks pregnant with a very active little girl.  I kept seeing Janine for acupuncture in the early stages of pregnancy and she recommended a good natal support supplement.  I wholeheartedly recommend Janine to any woman who is looking for support and treatment for fertility issues.”

Danielle had long-term anxiety and panic disorder “I began weekly sessions with Janine about 5-6 months ago after my anxiety peaked at its highest in years. At this stage, I had been undertaking cognitive behavioral therapy for panic disorder for a number of months and found that it was not working as well as I had hoped. I had heard that acupuncture was great for reducing anxiety and stress levels, and I was curious to try it.

During my first session, Janine made me feel very comfortable and I was able to discuss exactly what my problems were, and what I hoped to gain from our sessions. She offered a number of different acupuncture points to treat both my anxiety at its core and its side effects, such as irritable bowel and insomnia.

I began to notice changes in my anxiety level after about 2 or 3 sessions. I felt less anxious in situations where I previously would have found unbearable. I felt more at ease, and experienced far less panic attacks than I had in the months prior. After each session I felt regenerated, relaxed, and more comfortable in doing things that I previously had found too difficult to do. Because I was undertaking both treatments at once, I found that acupuncture enabled me to better open up and respond to CBT as well.

After about two months, I was able to move to fortnightly sessions, which I very much look forward to! Janine had also prescribed me with some Chinese herbs which I have also found very effective for keeping the anxiety at bay between sessions.

I would recommend that anyone with panic disorder should try acupuncture alongside their traditional treatment. Prior to acupuncture, I struggled to even leave my house without having anxiety – now I am able to enjoy life without the constant fear of having an attack. That’s not to say I don’t experience anxiety now and again, but when I do it is far less severe than it was 6 months ago, and only continuing to get better. “

Meenal preparing to give birth “I went to see Janine for pre-birth acupuncture. We welcomed our daughter on 12th May and it was a really positive birth and not too long as well. My midwife was really impressed with Janine and said acupuncture had done a great job to help me have such an easy birthing experience.”

H.A preparing for birth “I gave birth to our son two weeks ago, went into spontaneous labour that lasted 1:25!  No drugs (no time), and no interventions necessary. I pushed for less than ten minutes. My OB couldn’t believe how fast it was. He was still in his civilian clothes and didn’t have time to change! I had my partner use the acupressure points during the early contractions, they were really helpful. Having a good plan for pain management made a huge difference. The speed in which I dilated; I went from 6 cm to holding a baby in 40 minutes. It was really intense labour but I am glad we did it without any interventions and painkiller free. Jesse was 2.58 kg (5.08 pounds) and is doing well.”

Lisa was on her first IVF ” I have a phobia of needles but due to ongoing infertility issues and an upcoming IVF cycle, I decided to try acupuncture and was recommended to Janine Nana at City Osteopaths. Janine has such a calming, kind nature I instantly relaxed and looked forward to our acupuncture sessions.

I recently found out I am pregnant. I would highly recommend Janine to any woman experiencing infertility issues.”

Gillian M. with sciatica “Early in my second trimester I had bad pelvic and sciatic pain. So bad I could hardly walk. After having a couple of different treatments that made no difference I went to Janine for acupuncture. I’m walking freely again, no pain, and enjoying my pregnancy again! Thanks so much, cannot recommend Janine enough.”

Kate had extremely heavy periods What was becoming unmanageable every month is now something that can be managed comfortably.

“I’m Pregnant! I wanted to thank you so much for providing such amazing pre-ivf preparation/care. I’m convinced the difference in quality was down to the supplements you suggested (particularly CoQ10) and the awesome ……We also have 2 top-grade frozen embies!”

Nicole, post miscarriage  “My partner and I tried for two years to get pregnant following a miscarriage in 2011. A friend suggested I see Janine and great news…. I’ve had two positive at-home pregnancy tests!!

Suzanne M. with low immunity “I initially tried acupuncture at City Acupuncture because I had problems with poor immunity and low energy. I was always getting sick.

Mark K. bilateral Achilles tendinitis “For the last two years I had suffered from a sporting injury that just would not go away, I tried anti-inflammatory drugs Physiotherapy and finally surgery. Unfortunately for me none of these treatments help relieve the pain. With my options for rehabilitation nearly exhausted my wife suggested that I should try acupuncture.

Anna had hip pain“I went to Janine to see if she could help me to fix a ‘hip’ injury I’d been struggling with for over a year. It had been a long process of getting treatment, then seeing a small improvement, then I’d be back to square one.

Then I went to see Janine. Janine is a wonderful listener and has a lovely, calm manner. I felt at ease immediately. She quicly identified the problem area (not the hip), and talked me through my options for treatment. I don’t notice the needles at all – there is no pain whatsoever. At every appointment we discuss the effect of the last treatment and agree on the next one. As a “patient” it’s great to be included in the process of healing. I thoroughly recommend seeing Janine, and have mentioned her to my friends. And my osteopath is thrilled with my progress. Apart from her skill, Janine is a lovely person to deal with, and I enjoy every session. Thanks!”

Monica Tresch – Shingles. I am a 47 female and I am usually in good health.  However recently I got a bout of shingles.  I had a bad rash, felt very unwell and had extremely low energy as Shingles affects the nervous system.  The doctor prescribed Acicoliv, Panadol and lots of rest. I heard that acupuncture was useful as well, so I contacted Janine Nana to book a number of acupuncture sessions. I would highly recommend acupuncture, but see your GP first.
