Struggling to fall—or stay—asleep? Our Sleep & Insomnia Support sessions use acupuncture (and electro-acupuncture when appropriate) to calm the nervous system and help you get deeper, longer, more restorative rest. Recent medical reviews and trials show acupuncture can improve sleep quality and time asleep, with added benefits when insomnia occurs alongside depression.

Acupuncture is also linked with increases in natural nighttime melatonin—a hormone that supports healthy sleep—and with down-regulating “fight-or-flight” activity so your body can actually power down.

Feeling wound up or having trouble relaxing? Our new Stress & Anxiety Relief treatments blend modern physiology with traditional acupuncture to calm your nervous system, improve recovery, and help you feel clear, grounded, and focused—without relying on over-prescribed meds. Evidence suggests acupuncture can lower perceived stress and stress biomarkers in adults with elevated stress, and reduce anxiety symptoms in clinical trials (including promising results for electro-acupuncture).

Here’s how it works at Synergy: we set goals, assess sleep, training load, and triggers, then build a targeted plan (manual acupuncture + optional electro-acupuncture) with simple at-home tools. Most people feel calmer within 24–48 hours, while others notice steady gains across several sessions. Individual responses vary, which is why we personalize frequency and track outcomes like sleep and focus.

We offer same week appointments and look forward to helping you reach peak performance in whatever you do! Visit our website for more info or call us at (201) 267 –0395 to schedule an appointment.

Get ahead of SAD now. Seasonal Affective Disorder is a recurring depression that usually starts in late fall as daylight drops; planning in October helps you hit the season with a toolkit that works!

Evidence-based options to ask your clinician about:
• Morning bright-light therapy (10,000-lux box, used daily). Strong support for treating and even preventing winter-pattern SAD.

• CBT-SAD (cognitive behavioral therapy tailored to seasonality) — as effective as light therapy acutely and more durable over future winters.

• Medication when appropriate — e.g., bupropion XL is FDA-approved to prevent seasonal major depressive episodes.

• Vitamin D if you’re deficient (get a blood test first). Deficiency risk rises with limited winter sun.

• Daily outdoor daylight + movement to reinforce your body clock.

• Acupuncture — RCTs and meta-analyses show reductions in depression severity, especially alongside standard care.

If seasonal mood changes hit you every year, don’t wait for the first dark week — build your plan now and stick with it through winter. If you’d like a holistic winter mental health wellness gameplan, Synergy can coordinate acupuncture with your other care. 💛

Pulled a muscle? At Synergy, we zero in on the why—then build a plan that gets you moving again. For many athletes, targeted acupuncture and dry needling can help calm pain and improve function, especially alongside mobility work and eccentric strengthening.

Some studies show dry needling can immediately improve hamstring flexibility, while others find benefits mainly when it’s paired with stretching—so we tailor it to your body and goals.

If you’re dealing with a strain, tightness, or post-workout soreness, let’s create a smart, sport-specific plan to get you back to training—with less pain and better mobility.

Healer by day, fighter by night. 👊
Meet Shi Ming — a traditional Chinese medicine doctor (who performs acupuncture) and rising UFC strawweight.

She burst onto the scene by winning the Road to UFC strawweight tournament in Macau with a head-kick finish, earning her UFC contract.

In her Shanghai UFC debut, she dropped a close decision to Bruna Brasil — and still left to chants of “Go Dr. Shi!” — reaffirming her vow to keep both healing and fighting.

As she put it, she won’t “put all my eggs in one basket,” balancing clinic life with the octagon as she climbs the ranks.

“I still prioritise my medical work and only focus on training after I finish all my duties,” she said.

At Synergy Acupuncture, we love stories like Shi Ming’s — living proof that precision, recovery, and resilience can come from the same hands. If you’re training hard and want support between sessions, we’re here for you!

Emma Raducanu’s US Open run this year was a solid step forward—she reached the third round after defeating qualifier Ena Shibahara in R1 and Janice Tjen in R2, before falling 6–1, 6–2 to No. 9 seed Elena Rybakina.

Earlier this season, Raducanu shared that she overcame a fear of needles to try acupuncture/dry needling to help manage recurring back spasms—another example of elite athletes using integrative tools to stay healthy and on court.

Clinically, acupuncture is one of the non-drug options recommended by the American College of Physicians for acute/subacute low back pain, and recent Cochrane evidence suggests it reduces pain intensity and slightly improves function for chronic low back pain compared with no treatment or usual care.

Synergy Acupuncture specializes in sports medicine and athlete-focused acupuncture to help with back pain, recovery, and performance—book a session today and get game-ready!

With 48 career NWSL goals under her belt, forward Sydney Leroux is one of the most prolific scorers in league history, and she shows no signs of stopping: at age 34, she was Angel City’s co-leading scorer in 2024, with seven in the regular season.

After enduring multiple surgeries and physical setbacks, Sydney credits acupuncture as a key part of her recovery journey. In a recent interview with Angel City FC, Leroux shared how her return to elite competition was guided not just by grit, but by holistic support: ““I love to get a massage sometime in the middle of the week,” she says. “That's really important for me. And then I love getting acupuncture, sometimes every day or every other day–that's my thing.”

At Synergy Acupuncture, we see firsthand how athletes—whether you're a weekend warrior or a world-class striker—can benefit from the same tools that keep pros like Leroux game-ready. Acupuncture supports recovery, relieves pain, and helps restore balance so you can move with confidence.

This season's All-Star Week was a time to celebrate the best in baseball—but behind every highlight reel and home run derby is the grind it takes to stay healthy through a grueling season. As we reflect on the break, it’s clear that recovery is just as crucial as performance. From managing shoulder strain to staying mobile through 162 games, more MLB players are turning to acupuncture to keep their bodies in peak condition and extend their careers.

A 2020 systematic review found that post-workout acupuncture cuts muscle-soreness ratings in half, lowers creatine-kinase levels, and even boosts isometric strength—with effects peaking 72 h after treatment. A couple players who proved this were Mark Teixeira and Hideki Okajima.

When neck and knee pain threatened his swing, Mark Teixeira built a game-day routine that includes acupuncture, soft-tissue work, and laser therapy—keeping a 14-year, 400-HR career alive.

Reliever Hideki Okajima turned to acupuncture on his oblique in the days before the playoffs—proof that even World-Series arms trust the needles to calm inflammation and restore full rotation.

Whether you’re a pitcher nursing shoulder strain or a power hitter rehabbing an oblique, our treatments speed recovery, reduce inflammation, and improve joint mobility so you can get back in the lineup faster. Book your session today and feel the big-league difference! ⚾🔥

“I love acupuncture and I love cupping,” — David Beckham

As the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 roars through U.S. stadiums this month (63 matches between June 14 – July 13, with the final right here in New Jersey), elite players are leaning on the same recovery edge Beckham swears by.

Acupuncture and cupping accelerate muscle repair, flush inflammation, and keep legs light between fixtures—exactly what we deliver every day at Synergy Acupuncture.
