Services
Pain, injury and poor health do not discriminate. They can strike anyone, from children to the elderly; office workers to professional athletes. That's why we're dedicated to offering individualized treatment plans to help patients from all backgrounds manage chronic pain, recover from injuries and even achieve peak sports performance.
Many people are confused when they are looking for the right acupuncturist. Five Element. TCM. Master Tung. So many options. What is right for you? While all of those distinctions do matter, the most important thing to know is whether or not a particular acupuncturist is right FOR YOU. One thing to keep in mind is that most acupuncturists are general practitioners.
The short answer is "No." Most acupuncturists are general practitioners - meaning that they treat a little bit of everything, sort of like family doctors. We are more like specialists. Our clinic focuses entirely on treating pain, and improving musculoskeletal function and sports performance. By deeply focusing on one area, we believe that we can give you the best care possible.
Our Orthopedic & Sports Acupuncture Clinic in Syracuse, NY differs from many other clinics. We focus on the most modern, up-to-date, science-based techniques. This means that we have modern evidence - in addition to traditional wisdom - in mind when we put together a treatment plan for you. We will select from the most advanced, evidence-based techniques to help restore normal, pain-free movement and get you back to doing the things you love!

Matthew is very thorough and extremely professional in his approach to getting me back up to peak physical health. The accupuncture treatments based his knowledge of physical fitness and remedies for sports injuries gives me confidence that I am on the road to recovery. Looking forward to running pain free again soon.

Mathew has always been great to work with. I originally started seeing him for my migraines. They have gotten so much better! They have lessened so much that I can function with them now. Lately, I have been having him work on an imbalance in my legs and glutes. I can’t believe how much better I feel. He has even helped me with pulled muscles in my lower back. I never new acupuncture could help with so much!

Matthew Reed has helped me stay on the road as a distance runner after being diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my left knee, knee contractures, and pain in my left leg and imbalances from an old hip injury. I've been running for 45 years and let an injury go untreated for too long. My PT referred me to Matt and promised quick results. I've received eight treatments over the last month, and I am impressed by the mobility I am gaining. I am back to training for a 10k and moving with much less pain. Matt is like a "safecracker" for the body. He can tell what is going wrong and tunes in and treats the

I'm typically skeptical of new things, but when you're hurting and traditional medicine isn't working you'll try anything...glad I did. Matthew Reed has an extensive knowledge of physiology and quickly figured out how to successfully use dry needling (NOT the same as acupuncture) to treat my back issues when nothing else worked. 6 weeks ago I couldn't walk my dog down the street without my leg going numb. Now I'm back to hiking 4000' Adk mountains without pain. He's now treating some knee pain that I was told would require surgery but may actually be misdiagnosed tendinitis...the guy knows his

Matt has made a believer out of me I never thought that acupuncture and Chinese herbs would help solve alot of my problems but using both together has been a huge life changer. He was even able to fix things that I didn't know were a problem he and his girlfriend Hannah and definitely worth checking out!

I’ve had a neck fusion, lower back fusion and untethering of my spinal cord. I sought out Matt because my activities of daily living are constantly affected by pain. I have Syringomyelia and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome - plus am over 50😉. I don’t want to be a great athlete or anything but I do want to be able to take a walk, go for groceries or vacuum without being in pain. Since seeing Matt I’ve noticed a marked improvement in my posture and pain level. I’ve never had treatments like this that are so specific to an individual’s problems or needs - and believe me I’ve gone to a lot of

Dr. Reed (and Hannah Inglish, massage therapist) have both been at the core of my sports injury recovery and enhanced performance. Not only that, but the herbal formulas that I have been taking (prescribed by Dr. Reed) have helped my mental health enormously. I have more energy, have been in a consistently better mood, and feel more resilient to stress. My rock climbing and running has improved significantly. I never knew acupuncture could be the answer to so many underlying issues...it is like magic. I highly recommend this clinic!

I am a 73 year old farmer and former collegiate athlete who has done a great deal of physical work, pushing my body to its limits for decades. As a result I suffer chronic and often debilitating back, shoulder, neck, hip, and foot pain. I have used the services of a chiroprator for many years, but the results are not long lasting. I decided to give acupuncture a try. Matt gave me a thorough and extensive treatment. The treatment itself was not painful but gave a sensation that was very unusual. The results were fantastic! After the first treatment, I actually gained a couple inches in height, just

I’ve been to a dozen Accupuncturists/dry needling ‘experts’ all over Canada and the US and Matthew is, by far, the best! He could easily find muscle atrophy (something I had no idea I had) and using nerve systems, gave me back some strength in my hands where I wondered if I was just getting old. Although my history of damage is long (from multiple sports), my neck rotation is now the best it’s been in over 15 years (within 10 sessions). I highly recommend him as a true expert in his field.
