Evidence Based Treatments | Focused On You
Reclaim a Body You Can Trust
You have worked hard to build a life you love, but lately, your body feels like it is getting in the way. Whether it is chronic pain or neurological issues, these symptoms have become an obstacle to living your life in full. It is frustrating to feel like you can no longer count on yourself, and even more frightening to wonder if you are losing the version of yourself that can handle anything.
Our goal is to help people who have let pain run their life get back to living the life they want. Because I grew up with scoliosis and I know firsthand you are not stuck with a body that defines you.
ArTeva Acupuncture is a boutique acupuncture clinic in Manhattan’s charming West Village, founded by Agnes Mlynarska,

Our Toolbox
Modern Acupuncture
Modern acupuncture combines neuroscience based acupuncture techniques. Neuropuncture combines acupuncture with electrical stimulation to directly influence the nervous system—regulating pain pathways, improving brain function, and restoring balance throughout the body.
Dry Needling
Dry needling is a precise technique using acupuncture needles to target tight or overworked muscles. It is particularly helpful for sports injuries, postural imbalances, and chronic musculoskeletal pain.
Herbal Medicine
While acupuncture regulates your nervous system, personalized herbal formulas provide the necessary raw materials to rebuild you from within. They are the essential internal fuel that sustains and amplifies your recovery from chronic pain, anxiety, and neurological conditions between visits.
Patient Voices
Everybody loves a comeback story
What our ArTeva Community has to say
I started seeing Agnes for extreme muscle tension in my neck, back, and shoulders. Since starting with her, this has also expanded to work treating headache, mood, and other more chronic or internal conditions. She's amazing. Nothing – massage, cupping, chiro – PT, has provided more consistent relief for me than needle work with Agnes. She really customizes every treatment, and for someone like me the trigger point work with dry needling has been a game changer, as has needles with electric stim.
I know needles can be intimidating, but I HIGHLY recommend giving them a try with someone as expert as Agnes. She will make you feel incredibly at ease, and her care is top-notch.
Working with Agnes has been the best decision I've made for my overall health/sports performance! I was very interested (but nervous) to try acupuncture for the first time. I've had chronic knee pain from division 1 track and field, years of competitive crossfit. After the first few sessions, I knew I made the right decision. The inflammation and pain around my knee reduced significantly. I continue to work with her bi-weekly for overall maintenance and recommend her to everyone in my circle. Agnes is an absolute expert on the human body. If you are on the fence about acupuncture but have been curious, Agnes is your person. I promise you will not find someone better in NYC to work with. She's patient, she's educational, and she works magic!!
Agnes provides exceptional service to our neighborhood, she's responsive, skilled and caring. I'm a surgeon and my back is my livelihood. Whenever I've had any problems, she's works magic. Acupuncture has reproducible results and is evidence-based therefore I recommend it to my patients as well, and Agnes is a master acupuncturist as well as a healer who follows up and cares for her patients. I'm glad I found her.
I've been incorporating acupuncture into my self care and stress/anxiety management routine, and it's made such a difference. Agnes is incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely personable. She remembers the little details about my life and always checks in for updates, which makes every session feel so individualized. Her office is clean, calming, and conveniently located in the beautiful West Village. Highly recommend!
Agnes is a delight. I've been to many, many acupuncturists, and even studied acupuncture myself in China, but I feel very lucky to have her in my neighborhood.
She practices a style of acupuncture that blends a Western medical understanding of the nervous system and musculature with traditional acupuncture techniques, and I'm starting to feel the effects for conditions ranging from reflux and immunity to knee pain. She also provides guidance around sports injuries, thanks to her background in PT. Plus, she's fun to chat with and always a positive presence.
I have had issues the last eight years with an overuse injury and distance running. Dry needling with Agnes has produced results which physical therapy, massage, etc., etc. have not been able to. I am not someone who likes needles, so I appreciate that she always explains what she is doing & makes sure I am as comfortable as possible during the treatment. The physical sensation of dry needling is unlike any other sensation, but * completely * worth it due to its effectiveness. I'm grateful to be happily running and in Agnes's care.
I can't say enough good things about Agnes. She is incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and truly attentive. I've only done acupuncture a couple of times in the past, but after working with her, I've become a real believer.
I came in with a major back and shoulder trigger that was causing a lot of discomfort, and she was able to provide noticeable relief. Beyond the treatment itself, she took the time to explain what was going on, offered thoughtful guidance on next steps, and shared practical advice on how to address the issue longer-term.
You can tell she genuinely cares about her patients and their recovery. Highly recommend.
I cannot say enough good things about Agnes! From my very first session she understood exactly what my body needed and created a customized healing plan grounded in a holistic, yet deeply research-based approach. She doesn't just apply standard treatments but takes time to really listen, assesses root causes, and uses her extensive knowledge of both Eastern and Western anatomy and physiology. Agnes's care has tremendously improved my chronic lower-back pain.
I've been seeing Agnes for just a few weeks, and I already feel a real shift, both physically and mentally. I came in with pain and tension from a neck injury, and not only has the relief been incredible, but I've also learned more from her about my spine, posture, and nervous system than I ever did in physical therapy.
She's brilliant at connecting the dots between mind and body, and her approach feels both deeply supportive and empowering. Each session is grounding, calming, and genuinely healing. I leave feeling clearer, lighter, and better equipped to take care of myself. So grateful to have found her. Can't recommend her enough.
