Picture

​Daniel Zal, LAc. is a licensed Acupuncturist and founder of the Acupuncture Heath Care center, and has been practicing in Albany, NY since 1993. Daniel graduated from the New England School of Acupuncture, in Boston, Mass. He specializes in Physical Medicine, Trauma, Injury, and Sports Medicine Acupuncture®. 
​
"My first experience with Chinese medicine was as a patient in 1986 while training in the Chinese martial arts.  Two acupuncturists from China visited our school and demonstrated acupuncture on anyone who was willing.  My chronic neck pain was totally gone for three weeks after that one treatment.  I am not very suggestible, and I figured that if it worked on me it must be for real. I became increasingly interested as I listened to my Tai Chi teacher discuss the principles of Chinese energetics and the profound insight to health and healing found in Chinese Medicine.

I decided  to pursue training at the  New England School of Acupuncture.  I graduated in 1993, completing a three year program of about 3000 hours.  NESA is the oldest and one of the most respected acupuncture schools in the country. That same year I opened the Acupuncture Health Care Center in Albany, and have been treating patients ever since.
​

I have taken some post graduate classes starting in 1995 with Mark Seem, who developed Acupuncture Physical Medicine.  In 2004 I met Matt Callison, who developed Sports Medicine Acupuncture® and have continued studying with him, becoming  certified  in 2010.  A fascinating journey.

It has been rewarding to bring the power of this ancient healing art to people who are struggling with pain and illness" ​
