Dr. Max Annis, DAcCHM, LAc
Dr. Max Annis is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine with advanced degrees from Pacific College of Health and Science and a bachelor’s degree from Hunter College. Healing runs in his family — with multiple doctors in his lineage — but Max was drawn to acupuncture for its creative, open, and holistic approach to medicine. For him, it’s not just about treating symptoms, but about creating a space for patients to truly reconnect with themselves.
His treatment style ranges from medium-intensity to deeper trigger point release, always guided by presence, precision, and the needs of the individual. Known for his calm and grounding energy, Max is especially skilled in treating neck and back pain — offering tangible, often immediate relief that helps people move through the world more freely.
His work has been featured in Vice and Muscle & Fitness, and he has helped patients recover from amenorrhea, thyroid disorders, and addiction through consistent care and a belief in the body’s innate ability to heal.
