Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese healing system that dates back over 3000 years. Part science and part art, acupuncture works to direct the body's natural energies away from patterns of pain and upset, toward their original states of health and balance. Tiny hair-thin needles are placed at various "acupuncture points" on the body.

How should I prepare? Most importantly come in with an open mind. Acupuncture is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, not a Western Medical model. Some concepts are the same but some are drastically different. I will do my best to explain every action. Women should wear a tank top underneath as I often need to access to the upper back/neck area.

Jay is a terrific acupuncturist. After years of intense neck and shoulder pain, he has provided a lot of relief and I feel better than I have in years.

I had severe pain in my right shoulder, arm, and hand. A friend recommended I try acupuncture. Jay helped me work with my insurance and developed a treatment plan that was specific to my needs. The office was relaxing and honestly a nice break during my work day. After 5 sessions, the pain is gone. Thank you, Jay!

I injured my back at work and because of his well deserved positive reviews, I found Jay! I knew as soon as I entered his comforting Zen like office I had made the right decision.. Jay's genuine concern and attentiveness were beyond impressive.. He's been treating my back for approximately 6 weeks.. After every session I have noticed considerable improvement in my pain.. His expertise in acupuncture as well as cupping has relieved not only my back pain but as also brought an amazing sense of overall well-being that can only be accomplished by a true skilled professional! I highly recommend Jay

Jay was able to help with neck tension that had been bothering me for years. His calm demeanor also helped with my fear of needles.

I started seeing Jay about two months ago for chronic debilitating head pain. After seeing him 1-2x weekly since April, Jay has helped my pain decrease from about an 8 to a 2 on a 1-10 scale. The change is like night and day! Jay is friendly, knowledgeable, very professional, and he listens attentively at each appointment. The office itself is very calming, cozy, clean, and peaceful. An overall great experience and I highly recommend him!

Today was my first time going to Jay for acupuncture and left there with reduced pain in my shoulder. Jay is very friendly, had a calming presence, making me feel very comfortable. Conveniently located near the heart of Downtown Reading and parking wasn't a problem around lunch time. Looking forward to my future appointments with Jay having this pain completely gone. Thank you Jay.

Jay has it all: He demonstrates professionalism, the environment screams cleanliness and relaxation, He is a very talented and skilled practitioner, the ambience is extremely soothing makes you want to linger. I would recommend him to anyone..
He has helped me to shorten the length of a cold, eased discomfort in my knees after running, decompress from daily stressors, and makes every session unique. Would absolutely endorse his services...
