Silver Acupuncture & Chinese Herbs

Silver Acupuncture is fantastic! I would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone who is curious about the healing benefits of acupuncture. After trying unsuccessfully for nearly a year to conceive, I began looking for an acupuncturist near my office in midtown. I was very stressed and emotionally drained during our first consultation and Jessica absolutely put me at ease. She gave me hope that acupuncture would not only help me conceive but also reduce my stress levels and help me find peace and balance. She is extremely professional but at the same time, makes you feel like you are chatting with a friend. I greatly appreciated that she really took the time to listen and validated my concerns… never dismissing anything as irrelevant or unimportant. I am happy to say, that after 2 ½ months of weekly treatments I am now pregnant and expecting in September! I truly believe that acupuncture is the reason and that Jessica made my weekly treatments something to look forward to.

I had received acupuncture from 3 other practitioners the past 3 years. But Jessica has a level of treatment that is more holistic than the others. She addresses the blocks for my whole body, not just any acute areas of pain. She cured my digestion issue up in one treatment and has really helped with hormonal balancing.
The office is so nice, treatment rooms are very calm, inviting and more like a home than a clinic office. I am very fortunate to call Jessica my acupuncture specialist.

I absolutely love Silver Acupuncture! Jessica is kind, professional and makes every visit a joy. She has been a great help to me and I would fully recommend her services to anyone!

My only regret is that you are limited to giving a place 5 stars. Wow.
I had a bad back spasm Monday, and when I woke Tuesday morning, could barely get out of bed, or walk. Any movement, walking, bending, twisting, came with excruciating pain. I had a 3:00 appointment, and by 3:45 the pretzel in my lower back felt like it was completely unwound.
Jessica spoke with me for about 5 – 10 minutes to get an idea of my ailments, and then laid out the treatment plan. I was going to lie on my back, and she was going to put needles in my upper and lower legs, and some other parts of my body. I was skeptical, since I figured you’d want to treat the area directly.
It’s incredible that a few needles in my wrists, hands, upper legs, and ankles for 25 minutes, almost brought my lower back up to 100%.
Having dealt with back problems for years, this was absolutely the quickest and best treatment I’ve received for this. Cannot recommend this service enough.

The best! It was my first experience with acupuncture, and Jessica’s gentle manner immediately put me at ease. She’s worked to find solutions to every challenge I’ve brought her way. Highly recommended.

I’ve been going to see Jessica once a week for about eight months now, and I have come to rely on our sessions to help relieve stress and other ailments. On the weeks I can’t make it, I notice a difference. I had only seen one other acupuncturist before her, which was good, but the level of the experience Jessica provides is unmatched. She asks questions and monitors your progress, and seems to genuinely want to help you improve in all aspects of your life through this Asian practice. She also offers suggestions for other ways to improve your well-​being outside of acupuncture. The rooms are very clean and nicely decorated, and Jessica is extremely punctual. I trust her completely, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for healthy ways to resolve issues of the body and mind, which are more interconnected than we can ever realize.

Jessica is wonderful. Not only is she a skilled acupuncturist, she takes the time to get to know you and bases her treatment on a discussion of your symptoms. She takes a genuine interest in you as a person. She is a skilled, knowledgeable and caring practitioner.
I always feel relaxed and better when I leave.

Jessica is a great acupuncturist, clinician, and is just a really pleasant person. If I ever need acupuncture care, I wouldn’t hesitate to see her and also refer her to my NY-​based friends and family. She’s smart, knowledgeable, and has a great bedside manner. She also has a needling style where you don’t even know the needle entered your skin, she’s that gentle. Jessica really helped me during a very stressful period of my life, and between acupuncture and some spot-​on Chinese Herbal remedies, my immune system, stress level, and sleep quality all improved in a matter of a few treatments.
Jessica is also very passionate about what she does, and is a great listener. In addition to acupuncture treatments, she has also recommended some lifestyle and dietary treatments that I should make in order to maximize the effects of the treatments, in order to heal the strengthen the body. Her goal is to see her patients get well, and to get to the root of the problem, instead of just treating the symptoms.
If you are in NYC and are ready to take the plunge and start acupuncture, Jessica is a great choice. She will ease your mind if you have any anxiety about needles, and you will leave her office feeling 100x better than when you arrived. I highly recommend Silver Acupuncture!

I love Jessica. She is an incredible acupuncturist — very attentive, warm, listens a lot and really strives to help in the best way. Handily located near Grand Central, the office is nice and each room comfortable. I looked forward to my sessions so much every week — it was an oasis of calm and i literally floated away after each session.

Jessica is the best! She is so warm and welcoming and puts you at ease as soon as you walk in the store. She is super flexible with scheduling and is always accomodating. I noticed a huge improvement in my headaches as soon as I began accupuncture with Jessica. She makes a point of checking in on my symptoms and frequency of headaches each time I see her. I’d highly recommend Silver Accupuncture.

Jessica was so personable and professional. It was my first time getting acupuncture and she helped make the experience enjoyable. Acupuncture really worked and I highly recommend silver acupuncture! The office is very clean and calming. Jessica walked me through every step of the process and I will definitely be back.

Silver Acupuncture is great! I have been going to see Jessica for a while and have enjoyed it quite a bit. She is extremely personable and very knowledgeable. I feel 100% comfortable with her during a session. I am a nurse and have an endless list of aches and pains that always feel nurtured and relieved by the time I leave. I have referred many coworkers already and will continue to!
Also, the office is spotless, easy to find and get to! Just a hop, skip and a jump from Grand Central!

Jessica Silver is a lifesaver. I’ve tried many different treatments for my headaches and shoulder pain, as well as seen different acupuncturists, but didn’t get relief until I started seeing Jessica.
At every appointment, she takes the time to talk through what’s going on with my symptoms and what’s changed since I was last in. You know she really cares about your well being and making you feel comfortable.
After starting to see Jessica my shoulder was improved enough to start competing in triathlons again. She was instrumental in allowing me to get back to normal training.
I’m so thankful I found Jessica and recommend her often. Just can’t say enough good things about her.

I highly recommend Jessica’s acupuncture services. Jessica is a kind soul who is truly interested in getting to know her clients. My OB/​GYN recommended her when I suffered from pregnancy-​related sciatica at 28 weeks. It proved to be very helpful and I continued seeing Jessica throughout my third trimester for lower backpain and general anxiety and fatigue.
In addition to providing her expertise and lending a supportive ear, Jessica also shared her personal pregnancy and birth experiences with me. Having similar goals (and OB practice + hospital) as she, I always felt comfortable and safe under her care and looked forward to our weekly chats/​updates in her new, modern, clean and well appointed office. My son’s delivery was relatively bearable and I believe that getting acupuncture on a regular basis has something to do with it.
I miss several things from my pregnancy and my appointments with Jessica are one of them! I look forward to going back as soon as I can. Thanks, Jessica!

I tried acupuncture for some chest muscle pain after not getting relief from any other traditional and non-​traditional therapies. *If you are having any chest pain do go and see your doctor first* In fairly short order my symptoms improved and I have seen significant improvement in the mobility and flexibility of the related areas that were actually causing the problem — shoulders, scapula etc. What is interesting to me is that the process has resulted not just in pain relief but actually fixing the underlying problem.
Jessica is a very straightforward and thoughtful in her treatment. I also appreciate the fact that she lets the acupuncture do the work and doesn’t feel the need to spend any time bludgeoning you with views on chakras and spiritual misalignments. However she is always willing to explain if you ask questions.
For anyone who is apprehensive at the idea of having needles stuck in you, Jessica has a terrific bed side manner and always ensures that you are comfortable and relaxed.
I am a total convert and would say that if you are having any pain (chronic or otherwise) give this — and particularly Jessica — a shot.

If you had told me a year ago that today I would be relatively pain-​free thanks to acupuncture, I would have told you you were out of your damn mind.
In September, it will be a full year since I started visiting Jessica for my neck/​back issues. In a short amount of time, I already began to feel relief. I have since gone from having an appointment once a week down to once a month. I actually look forward to my monthly appointments because acupuncture is the perfect way to relax. Jessica has been nothing but a sweetheart the entire time I have been going to her. Each time I go, I learn something new about a different acupuncture point. She’s also been able to help my lungs a bit with the cupping method (which also feels awesome, btw). Don’t knock it till you try it.

Jessica is really nice and very attentive. She asked way more questions and seemed more interested in my wellbeing than my regular doctor.
The overall experience was great and was not in the least bit painful.
I noticed an improvement in my condition after just one treatment! Looking forward to my next visit.

After hearing from my friends how helpful acupuncture has been to them about relieving stress… I figured why not give it a shot? I work in a high-​stress and intense work environment and with a knee injury sidelining me for weeks from any exercise I needed a way to de-​stress some how.
Thanks to Unilocal,I came across Jessica Silver’s practice and decided to use the contact page on her website to schedule my first appointment. Within the day I received an email response from her and scheduling my first consultation was a breeze. She also emails you the paperwork to fill out ahead of time which is thorough and examines every aspect of your physical and mental health (and I mean every aspect). However it’s a huge time saver to get it done before you actually go in.
Her office location is so easy to find, and tucked away in the corner of the building, so it’s not a super high-​trafficked area (I prefer the privacy). As soon as I rang the bell on the door, I was greeted by Jessica… who is super pleasant and friendly (refreshing compared to most of the people you see on NYC streets these days).
She took me into one of the treatment rooms which was tranquil, serene, and extremely calming. We had a long chat about my health background, why I wanted to get acupuncture, and areas that were bothering me. She asked a lot of questions, and just like the paperwork, she was extremely thorough.
Luckily for me, most of my «areas to treat» are ones that acupuncture is well suited for. As a needlephobe, I was worried about the needles and how I would react, however Jessica explained the process, showed me the needles (should not really be called needles because they’re so thin!), and was so quick with the insertion, I felt no pain, anxiety, or discomfort in the insertion process. She kept talking to me the whole time, so I wasn’t paying attention to the fact that she was sticking me with a bunch of these needles :-). She also explained some of the sensations that people experience while the needles were inserted, so it was good to know that as well.
Once she was done setting the needles, she stepped out of the room, and let the needles do their work… 20 – 25 minutes on a nice warm heated table with soothing music and lights out is so relaxing… I usually end up falling asleep!
Once the time was up, she came back, removed the needles and explained to me any potential side effects. After the first session I was very disoriented and super sleepy, but it was a one-​time only thing.
I’ve had more than 1 session with her now, and each time we meet, it starts with a brief chat about where I am at, what’s improving, and if there are any changes from our previous session. So far I’m amazingly pleased at the results, most of my discomfort and issues are dissipating with each treatment I have.
For those like me lucky enough to have insurance to cover the cost of treatments, she is super prompt to send via email the paperwork we can remit to our insurance companies.
Very professional, super sweet, and extremely knowledgeable, I highly recommend anyone to seek out Jessica for treatment!

I have never tried acupuncture before so I was a little skeptical it would help subside my long term issues. At this point i was willing to try anything to help me with several long term issues.
I met Jessica and to my surprise she knew what she was talking about when it came to alternative medicine (i.e. herbs) instead of prescription medicine. She also was really familiar with what i wanted to treat.
After a discussion of my symptoms and what herbs i could consider, the actual acupuncture was amazing. After just one treatment i can already see a dramatic improvement. I have purchased the herbs she recommended and i do plan to go back for another treatment if needed.
I’m so happy i tried this. If you have chronic issues its worth a try my have been existent for almost 20 years and after this first treatment they are subsiding. AMAZING! i cant believe it!

I’ve had one treatment so far and am amazed at how quickly I began to feel results! I have an intense work and life situation which is really hard on my body and I was starting to see some distressing results of it all.
Acupuncture seemed like it might be good to try. Boy, am I glad I did!
First, the building is easy to find and, while the office is small, it’s nice and laid out well, for privacy. Silver Acupuncture isn’t listed on the door, so I was worried I was in the wrong place!
Jessica was waiting for me in the front office, which was a nice way to be greeted and let me know I was in the right place after all. She had emailed the assessment forms and the consent agreement, which I filled out at home, so we got started with the assessment right away. She was thorough in her questioning and she recommended some lifestyle changes.
After explaining what she would do, we began the treatment. The treatment table is super comfy and it’s adjustable, like one of those beds you see in the commercials!
After the treatment, I was a bit disoriented, but I was feeling better already. I’m going for more treatments soon and I hope it is just as good… or better than the first!
