Oasis in Union Sq! Fantastic treatment, calming atmosphere, and a wonderful acupuncturist!

This was my first ever visit to an acupuncturist and I met with Sheryl. Sheryl was wonderful, patient, and informative and spent over two hours just going over the treatment options, theories, tools, and everything you could ever want to know about alternative medicine. She REALLY listens to you and asks you detailed questions so that she can better understand your needs and reasons for seeking her help. After my first treatment, she wanted in-depth feedback and details so as to tailor my session better to meet my needs. The second session was AMAZING. I've had chronic back and leg pain for almost a decade and by the second session there was a noticeable reduction in pain. (And I've tried exercise, medication, chiropractors, massage, etc.) I was blown away with her attention to detail and the way in which she addresses the root, not the symptoms, of your pain. She also never pushes anything you aren't truly comfortable with - as she explained, "there are many ways to get at a particular pain." This was a truly great first experience (coming from a sceptic on alternative treatment) and I am still going! Highly recommend!!

• Pros: Staff, cost, service, parking

great acupuncture

by springinthecity at Citysearch

This is an exceptionally good place to get accupuncture: very effective, friendly, and with kind staff. They go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and taken care of.

I saw Sheryl because I had terrible back and neck pain. Her treatment made me feel better after one session, and the pain was almost completely gone after four sessions. She also successfully treated me for other ailments that came along the way (a cold, a bruised knee).

I would recommend both Sheryl and the other staff who work here (you can get massages here as well).

Very Knowledgeable

I went to Union Square Acupunture to get a treatment that would help me prepare for a vacation, hoping that the treatment would let me get over jet lag quickly. The office atmosphere was calming and professional. And, the staff was very knowledgeable and good at explaining what was being done. In the end, the jet lag never affected my vacation.
