acupuncture + massage therapy

Hi, I'm Saul—a bilingual NYS Licensed Acupuncturist and Massage Therapist.

I started this practice because I had to. Acupuncture found me, and now my job is to help people live with less pain. Thus, I’m always answering one question: How can I actually help someone when traditional methods aren't working?

Pain can be complex. I don’t always have answers, but I’m constantly amazed at how well treatment works when kept simple and persistent.

Like a patient I treated who had chronic migraines for 25+ years. She was on multiple medications, tried talk therapy, and her Neurologist couldn’t find anything physically wrong. At that point, I wondered how I could possibly help.

And yet, after her second treatment, she cried and said, "my headache is gone."

With consistent care, her migraines decreased to once every few months, and her daily headaches completely spread out until her symptoms were so infrequent she didn’t notice them anymore. She stopped taking medication, and her doctors happily suggested she keep doing what was working.

And that’s why I practice: if it’s working, let’s keep doing it until it’s unnecessary.
