Integrative
Microtrauma Recovery Specialist
Welcome to Acupuncture NYC/ Medicine of Changes!
My name is Andre Yershov and I'm an acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist in Midtown, Manhattan, NYC. I'm the founder of Acupuncture NYC/ Medicine of Changes.
Since 1996, I provide expert care for chronic tissue injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, unresolved symptoms, and invisible strain in high performance bodies.
I focus on the diagnosis and treatment of lingering micro-injuries that commonly afflict dancers, athletes, circus artists, office workers, musicians with prolonged sitting, and anyone, who is prone to stiffness, tension and chronic pain. These injuries –often subclinical and recurrent- can evade conventional imaging yet continue to impair peak performance. By blending Tung's acupuncture, motor point acupuncture, electro-stimulation, Class IV laser acupuncture, Chinese Tuina massage, Chinese herbal medicine, cupping, Gua Sha and moxibustion I help resolve deep-seated pain, restore tissue integrity, and support full-spectrum recovery.
I founded my clinic to meet the demand of Eastern European Americans, who were seeking a more comprehensive way to recover from microtraumas. My first medical education in Ukraine taught me that microtrauma recovery is an integral, holistic process. There, Western medicine has always been in close touch with Asian medical traditions, as the main goal was to provide the most efficient and gentle treatment possible. Because of this, acupuncture, herbs, cupping, and massage were considered a part of a greater medical field.
As the first clinic of its kind, I initially built my practice to serve a community specifically looking for this type of care. Since 1996, I've witnessed how this approach not only prevailed but also became the preferred option for those in need of supporting treatment to Western medicine, and my practice now welcomes clients from all walks of life.
To better understand the types of cases and people I work with, I invite you to review my website. Since Chinese medical theory doesn't always directly correspond with Western diagnoses, my website offers a better look at my approach.
