Acupuncture
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a documented practical history in China for the last 5,000 years. It is the longest updated and improved independent medical system in existence.
Acupuncture, herbal medicine, and tui na massage are the main components of TCM. Acupuncture involves the insertion of hair-thin needles into multiple parts of the body to elicit a physiological effect. Because of the today’s modern technology, these hair-thin needles are solid, smooth and virtually painless during insertion unlike a hypodermic needle which is thick, hollow, and jagged.

Kinesiology Taping
Kinesiology taping, often known as
"kinesio taping" is a form of athletic taping that allows for stabilization of muscles and joints during injury recovery. This helps the athlete compete with significantly less pain while restoring muscular strength. It also improves lymphatic drainage and circulation to promote healing. Compared to conventional taping methods,
kinesiology tape is composed of 100% elastic cotton cloth with an adhesive that is waterproof and non-irritating, designed to simulate the thickness and feel of human skin.

EPAT (Shockwave) Therapy
Shockwave therapy is the application of acoustic waves through air compression of a ballistic device that creates an acoustic wave that penetrates up to 6 cm in depth. This therapy was born out of lithotripsy, the most advanced treatment for the elimination of kidney stones. In Europe, this treatment evolved into orthotripsy that treats a variety of
orthopedic conditions that were previously resistant to conventional physical therapeutic approaches. This has been a very exciting and game changing addition to the field of orthopedics and sports medicine. We are proud to be amongst the first in NYC to provide this service.
