Your Neighborhood Acupuncture Practice
At Gotham Acupuncture on the Upper West Side, we function as your comprehensive neighborhood wellness provider, welcoming patients with diverse health concerns. We understand that accessing thorough family medicine has become challenging, leaving many without proper attention to their overall wellbeing.
During your initial consultation, we'll take time to understand your health history and goals. We work with your existing healthcare providers to make sure you get the care you need, and results you deserve.
Our Specialties
Beyond our general practice, we have extensive expertise in a few specialties. We teach other acupuncturists how to provide care for these conditions.
Pain Management & Orthopedic Conditions
Our practice specializes in treating both acute and chronic pain through personalized acupuncture treatments that reduce inflammation, trigger endorphin release, and enhance circulation to affected areas. Scientific research consistently validates acupuncture's effectiveness for pain relief without the medication side effects many Upper West Side professionals and families wish to avoid.
Headache & Migraine Treatment
Chronic headaches and migraines can disrupt daily life for busy Upper West Siders. Our targeted treatments address both immediate symptoms and underlying causes, reducing episode frequency and severity while helping you identify and manage personal triggers that might be exacerbated by city living. Many of our patients no longer experience headaches at all after completing a customized treatment plan.
Sports Medicine & Athletic Performance
We support athletes of all levels across the Upper West Side with treatments that accelerate recovery from training, prevent injuries, enhance performance, and address sports-specific conditions. Our protocols are tailored to complement your personal training regimen and performance goals, whether you're training for the NYC Marathon or regularly walking in Central Park.
Neurological & Mental
Our practitioners provide effective support for neurological conditions and mental health concerns common among Upper West Side residents. Using targeted acupuncture techniques, we help patients manage stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and a wide range of neurological disorders with a holistic approach that addresses both physical and emotional well-being in our fast-paced urban environment.
