Kyle is an extremely thorough and thoughtful acupuncturist. I've seen several over the years, and it's rare that they have such strong knowledge of the body AND such sensitivity to me and my needs—but this is Kyle's gift. I'm a professional saxophonist + clarinetist and struggle with a lot of chronic pain all along my right side, and my trigger-point sessions with Kyle are deeply healing. He not only treats but also educates, which is helping me to carry the benefits of treatment forward into my everyday life between appointments. His new location in Dumbo is spacious, airy, clean, warm, calming, swept with natural light… I can't recommend Kyle enough!
I cannot speak highly enough of Kyle and his work. I am a full time athlete and I use my body at maximum capacity every day. Whenever an issue or injury arises, the first person I contact is Kyle. He is an absolute magic worker and has cured me of so many ailments, with such efficiency. I have had injuries that I thought I might suffer from for years, which are now completely resolved thanks to his treatments. In addition to being a phenomenal acupuncturist, Kyle is also incredibly kind, thoughtful, and patient! I always feel completely at ease in his office.
I had fairly serious herniated disc (L5, S1). I went through 2 surgeries over a year and a half time period. I've done months of physical therapy which certainly helped, but was left with remaining pain issues which PT wasn't quite able to address. At my PT's suggestion, I went to see Kyle for trigger-point therapy. It has been almost 2 months of weekly sessions (which will reduce in frequency) and I can see a significant difference. Kyle is not only attentive and patient. His knowledge is extensive. He has many tools and strategies to address the issues, not just one single method. He answers all my questions, helps me understand everything we're doing, why we're doing it, and how it should help (while still being very flexible to make changes/adjustments if needed). The work has been very targeted, which is great! Not only can I see definite improvement, I feel this has been the missing piece to my recovery and am confident I will get back to an active life of exercise, sports, travel, and then some! I highly recommend working Kyle 👍💪✊
