Avicenna Acupuncture Clinic

Acupuncture

At Avicenna Acupuncture, we believe it is essential to spend time with our patients and get to know them by listening to and inquiring about their health. Our medical approach is based on the whole person and the cause of a problem, not just symptoms. At our acupuncture clinic, we provide treatments based on traditional Chinese medicine. Consultations include acupuncture treatments, lymphedema care, fibromyalgia treatment, prescription of herbal medicine, nutritional counseling and Tui Na (joint release technique) if indicated.

We believe that the body can heal itself when given the right conditions. Factors that can cause disease may be related to environmental toxins, emotional stress and/or trauma. Read more

    Igor is absolutely the most caring, knowledgeable, empathetic, and effective doctor I have ever been to, either Western or Eastern Medicine. The fact that he was formally trained as a Western Doctor adds to the value of the treatments, diagnosis, and advice he provides.
    After I was told by a Urologist to go to the hospital for severe Prostatitis to be catheterized, out of desperation, I went to Igor.
    Igor provided immediate and long-lasting relief and managed this chronic condition, while also reducing my stress and anxiety significantly.
    I cannot recommend Igor enough. He literally saved me from a living hell and the side effects were unexpectedly positive too.

    Igor is marvelous. I never expected to find an acupunturist with a medical degree! It's truly is the best of both worlds. He really listens and approachs it with such a knowledgable viewpoint. It's refreshing and effective.

    Dr. Igor has been a lifesaver for me. I had been having very severe jaw pain, and after 3 or 4 sessions, I was feeling 95% better. Igor is very knowledgeable about all aspects of the human body. He has a warm personality, he has a very gentle way about him, and I feel very comfortable with his treatments. I trust him with any physical problem I may encounter. I absolutely would give Igor more than 5 stars if I could!

    I came to see Igor for a couple of conditions that I have had for almost a year. They are Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and Parenthesis (tingling sensation all over the body). My doctor and specialist couldn't find anything wrong after performing all of these tests: I had blood, urine, MRI, MRA tests. Also had and EKG and a Chest X-ray. So they gave me names for my conditions but no treatment options. I was told by a couple of friends to go to an Acupuncturist. After just one visit with Igor the tingling sensations have been reduced significantly. And I have more energy than I have had in a LONG time which is a nice side effect. I will continue his treatments, at least in the short term, and see if more positive results for these two conditions can be realized.

    I just love Igor at Avicenna. His office is very clean and professional and without Eastern religious art everywhere, which has kind of put me off at other acupuncture places I've been to. The atmosphere is very calming, and so is Igor. He is such a sweet, compassionate person, and fully listened to me when he did my intake. He has a medical degree in addition to his acupuncture training, so he is able to listen from both a Western and Eastern perspective, which I think comes in really handy. He knows how to explain things and did some "deep" work that I've never had done before. He also is great at herbal medicine, mixing his own remedies instead of just using the prepackaged tablets. He's excellent at looking at the big picture and making suggestions that go beyond just sticking needles in you. I really appreciate what he's done for me.
