Joseph DelGiodice is an acupuncturist, Chinese and Western herbalist, nutritionist, and naturopath, with a tenure in the healing arts that stretches across four decades. With his great grandfather an herbalist and bone setter, great grandmother a midwife, and godfather a 1949 graduate of physiotherapy at The Swedish Institute, the family practice of healing stretches back to nineteenth century rural Sicily. His own lifelong fascination with health and longevity began at age 7. Having studied extensively with herbalist priest Jeffrey Yuen since 1997 and having been a long-time apprentice to Master Western Herbalist David Simon, Joe is a graduate of Rutgers College, the Somerset School of Massage Therapy, the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, and the American Naturopathic Medical Institute.
Joe has been a member of the ESATM community since summer 2012, where he has served as a clinical supervisor, clinic dean, and instructor of clinical techniques, five element theory, and herbal medicine. Prior to that, he was a faculty member at PCOM NY and an acupuncture proctor for the NJ State Board of Medical Examiners.
Since July of 1999, he has maintained a private practice at Hudson Healing Arts in Hoboken, NJ, focusing on whole body wellness, geriatrics, musculoskeletal care, women’s and men’s health, and natural food and lifestyle education. Joe also volunteers in a local community organic garden, loves preparing healthy vegan meals, and is an avid cross-country skier, longboard surfer, acoustic guitarist, and singer-songwriter.
