I can’t recommend Nikki and her work highly enough. Not only is she really skilled at her craft, quickly eliminating things like insomnia, aches and pains and hormonal imbalances, but she is an absolutely wonderful human being too! She is so calm, kind and understanding, as well as being a great listener. She always knows exactly what treatment to choose to make me feel better. I started seeing Nikki to help support my infertility journey, and almost a year to the day that I started seeing her, I welcomed my rainbow baby. Nikki and her acupuncture treatments are an essential part of my self care routine - she really makes me feel grounded and centered, both in body and mind. Highly recommend!

I have been seeing Nikki for several years (every two to three weeks) and I cant begin to express how much I trust her expertise. She is a calming soul and the ambiance in her office reflects it. Nikki takes the time to get to know you and what might be troubling you physically, mentally and emotionally. She takes a holistic approach. I look forward to every session because I know Im going to walk out feeling so much better than when I entered. You wont find a better acupuncturist in the DMV.

Nikki is wonderful! She provides an amazing space for healing in every way. If you are thinking about acupuncture, go see Nikki and you will leave with less pain, improved mood and eager to come back!!

I cannot recommend Nikki highly enough! I had never had acupuncture before seeing her and was a bit apprehensive about it, but she explained the whole process and was so gentle. She is one of the kindest people I have ever met in my entire life. She starts each appointment talking to you and hearing about what is bothering you. I first went to see her for pain management for what I later found out was a ruptured disc in my back that would ultimately require surgery. I was experiencing severe 10/10 pain and her techniques were able to make it manageable and allow me to go to work/be functional for a few days. I noticed I experienced mental clarity in addition to pain relief on days I saw her. My boyfriend even pointed out how much better my pain level and overall demeanor seemed on days I saw her when I was experiencing my ruptured disc.Most of all, her gentle personality and genuine care for her patients’ well-being is what I loved most about seeing her. I will always remember how kind she was to me when I was in so much pain. I will miss her dearly now that I’ve moved out of state.Also, if you’re afraid of acupuncture, don’t be! They are super tiny and you don’t even feel some of them. Plus she makes the environment super comfy with pillows, cozy blankets and soothing sounds playing.

Nikki is incredible! I’ve seen an number of acupuncturists over the years and no one compares to Nikki. Nikki has helped me with various issues and can pinpoint exactly what I need even when I’m not sure of it myself. She goes so far beyond what’s expected to ensure my comfort and is extremely honest, reliable, and nonjudgmental. Shes also the best listener. I could talk to her for hours! Every time I leave Metsuyan Wellness I feel like a new person. There’s no one like Nikki, she’s pure magic!

Nikki is a gifted acupuncturist with a healing touch. She listens deeply and brings instant relief in a caring and gentle manner. Her office is lovely and inviting. You will feel so much better when you leave!

Nikki was nothing short of wonderful with my daughter who has multiple health conditions that cause pain, GI and pelvic problems. We saw her on a recommendation of a friend.Nikki spent a significant amount of time wanting to know about my daughters health history, treatments and medications. Since this takes a long time to explain, Nikki regularly paused to asked my daughter if she needed a break or some water. She was so sweet and never rushed us.Her office is a little tricky to find and its a good thing that she provides details when you connect with her. The Office is clean and neat without looking sterile. Visitors dont see any needles or other instruments.Windows are covered, but allow the bright light to enter.She provided privacy while my daughter undressed, leaving undergarments on. The therapy bed was heated and Nikki made sure my daughter was comfortable.We decided on just a few needles for the first time. Nikki explained as she worked checking with my daughter with every needle insertion. She offered natural sounds or soft music while the needles stayed in.My daughter was happy with her experience! Nikki is everything you would want in a acupuncturist sweet, nonjudgmental, patient, gentle, thoughtful and professional. We will be back again and I think I will try her for myself for back pain!

Ive have seen her for years. We worked through 2 pregnancies, both challenging in different ways. Her space is calm, bright, clean and inviting. I would recommend her to anyone interested in acupuncture.

Nikki is a professional who provides care beyond other acupuncturists I have gone to here & in California. She is an amazing , caring person who takes time to assess my concerns & provide care for my issues. I really value her kindness & gentle touch. I feel cared for every time I leave.

I can’t say enough amazing things about Nikki! She’s caring, kind, attentive, professional and in tune with what you need at every treatment. She makes every effort possible to maximize your treatment. During my fertility journey, including IVF, Nikki was with me every step of the way, including the day of our transfer, and now we have a healthy, beautiful boy. I’m still a loyal client to this day. Go see for yourself!

Nikki is magical! Through Nikki’s cutting edge approach to acupuncture and her ability to listen beyond anyone I have ever met, she brings relief and change to my mind, body, and soul. Aches and stress just disappear, and she has a treatment for every medical issue I throw at her. Her space feels like an incredible spa, meticulously clean, beautifully decorated, and so comfortable and comforting--with awesome warming beds. Nikki told me when I first met her, that she believes she is meant to nurture those who nurture others, and this is exactly what she does for me. I leave each treatment feeling ready to face whatever the week brings. She is a true blessing!

Niki is a excellent as an Acupuncturist . I received a consultation as a holiday gift from my children. I was a little hesitant if it will work.I have been an allergy suffer for decades. Niki ,has been able to cure me no longer do I have that terrible post nasal congestion , my sinus are clear. She has also helped me with Gastro problems. Her beautiful smile and warm personality makes my week. I strongly recommend her.

Acupuncture is amazing at relieving anxiety ! Nikki Richman clearly knows a lot about anxiety and how anxious people feel. Her treatments are very gentle, yet effective. It is a real gift to find an acupuncturist like her !

I have a peripheral neuropathy that causes a constant burning sensation of my feet. Medication has helped somewhat, but has significant side effects. My daughter has had acupuncture for over a year by Nikki Richman for a variety of issues, with relief. She suggested I see Nikki. I thought since I had persistent symptoms why not try something that has been practiced for 3000 years. As a retired physician this required a significant leap of faith, one that I am glad I took.Nikki‘s treatments have significantly alleviated my symptoms.She has blended agent eastern medicine with present day science. She is kind, thorough, competent and painless.In the 33 years at practiced medicine I had the pleasure and honor to work with several people who were skilled in bedside manner, in procedural dexterity, and in cognitive learning. Nikki has all of these attributes.I do not think it is possible to find a practitioner of acupuncture who blends science and art more skillfully then Nikki Richman.Stephen Carlson,MD

Highly recommended. Very knowledgeable, efficient and caring.

I referred a family member to Nikki Richman, to help her during the duration of her pregnancy. We could not have be happier!

Great information and a great treatment
