Dry Eye Syndrome

My eyes were killing me! I had no idea how to get rid of the stinging and burning. Licensed acupuncture specialist Marc Bystock talked with me about micro acupuncture and how this form of acupuncture targets degenerative eye problems and dry eyes. A few days after my first session, I was noticing I could produce more tears. After my first three sessions, I have no more problems with itchy eyes. Now, I wake up feeling refreshed and ready to face the day. Thank you, Marc! 

David M., NYC

I work in construction around a lot of dust and debris. My eyes would hurt so bad when I got home every day. A trip to Marc put me at ease. His staff was extremely caring and compassionate. We chose to use electroacupuncture to speed up my tear production. The change is amazing! I can't believe how much better I feel. I am enrolling in night classes to get my next promotion thanks to Marc Bystock and his team at Holistic Acupuncture NYC.

I was afraid I was going to keep losing vision until I saw an ad for acupuncture. I was a bit skeptical, but nothing else was working, so I figure it was worth a shot. I am so sad I didn't go to the clinic sooner. I don't know if it is the reduction in pressure or the improved circulation or both, but something is changing my eyesight for the better. I will be booking regular visits with Marc Bystock.

My cousin told me I should try acupuncture for the side effects of macular degeneration. She said she read somewhere that traditional Chinese therapies were showing promise for helping people with my condition. I wasn't sure if I was comfortable with the idea of someone putting needles in my body, but everyone at Holistic Acupuncture was so supportive and caring. The entire experience was calming and reassuring. I began noticing improvements almost immediately. Marc says the treatment gets more blood flowing to and from the eyes clearing the vision. Thank you for helping me see better and making me feel comfortable!

I have a ton of trouble with back pain. Marc Bystock said he could help relieve my symptoms without surgery like other doctors were suggesting. I need to work to support my family. Taking off for major surgery and recovery is not going to work for me, so I booked a session. Am I happy I did! My sciatic pain is getting much more tolerable. I am taking fewer pain pills and keeping up better at work. I sure am a believer now. 

Louisa Ellican, Upper Manhattan 

I got rid of my pain fast! Marc used electro-acupuncture and it helped me tolerate my back pain better. I can work all night without taking pain medications. I used to take four to eight pills a night.

John C., East Harlem

No more back pain. Hallelujah! I do not know what I would have done without the help of the Holistic Acupuncture NYC and Mr. Bystock. I am finally able to spend time with my family without taking a rain check to rest my back. 

James, NYC


After giving birth to our daughter, my back was hurting so much. I could barely pick our little girl up, and cleaning the house was excruciating. After my consultation with Mr. Bystock, he determined I was constantly straining my back. The shifting of my weight after childbirth was pulling too much on the paraspinal muscles in my back. By the end of each day, my lower back was throbbing. With a few sessions of acupuncture, my back pain was significantly better, and now I can chase my crawling baby. 

Alina S., Soho

I hurt myself at work. No matter how much I rested or what I did, the pain kept coming back. Physical therapy, over-the-counter pain cremes, prescription pain medications, and heat. Nothing worked. I decided to go to the Holistic Acupuncture NYC center to see if they could help. Marc was fantastic. He checked my muscles and suspected I had a spasm with tissue inflammation in my lower back. I am now on the road to recovery with a plan to get back to work using electrical acupuncture thanks to my acupuncturist Marc Bystock.

Neck Pain

I drive a school bus in Manhattan. Neck pain is not something I can deal with regularly. When I had trouble turning around to check my blind spots, I knew I had to do more than take a few Tylenol. I got a consultation with Marc Bystock and found out how soothing acupuncture can be when you consult a trained specialist. If I had let the problem go, then it might have made it necessary to have surgery, but for now, we can go the natural route using massage, nutrition, acupuncture, and exercises to stretch my neck and increase my range of motion without added pain. 

David Chase, NYC

Hello Marc, I want to say thank you so much! You helped me loosen the muscles in my neck and relieve the pressure that was causing me to have migraines. My neck hurt so bad it would have me in tears. Your decompression techniques and light electrical stimulation with acupuncture took all the pressure off of the nerves and stopped my headaches. You are such a godsend.

Shoulder Pain

Holistic Acupuncture NYC, I am so happy I saw your ad. The pain I was experiencing in my shoulder was traveling down my arm, causing me to drop things. I broke several plates and cups before I made my appointment. I wish I had come in sooner. After just two visits, I am already feeling so much better. My shoulder is more relaxed, and I have a better range of motion. Electric acupuncture was the right route because it helped alleviate the pain. 

Jason B., Manhattan 

If you want to get rid of shoulder pain, then you have to see Marc. I do not know if it is the acupuncture sessions or the diet, but something sure is working. I no longer feel the dull ache in my shoulder and arm. My collarbone is not hurting anymore, either. Thank you so much for all your help. I told my sister that she needs to book an appointment to get rid of her neck pain and headaches.

Chronic Fatigue

I had no idea that muscle pain could trigger a condition called chronic fatigue syndrome. All I know is that I was tired all the time. My family doctor noticed my tiredness began after I injured my back in a fall. She suggested I see Marc Bystock, and I am so happy I followed her advice. I still have a ways to go, but the improvement in a few short weeks is more than I could have hoped for already. If you suffer from CFS, then maybe you should give his office a call too. 

Lisa, Two Bridges

I told Marc I was having trouble sleeping, and I was sore all over. I have chronic fatigue syndrome and a severe strain in my lower back. I didn't know the two could be connected. I thought I was coming down with the flu or something. With acupuncture, my back is better, and I have a better night's sleep. Now, I am getting more energy and finding time to do more every day. Great catch, Marc!

My RA is a constant, nagging ache. I thought it was something I was going to have to deal with and suck up. After my first visit to the Holistic Acupuncture NYC, I knew things were going to be okay. Mr. B. gave me a lot of information on how nutrition and hydration can help my condition. With his advice, I am learning how to eat healthy meals to reduce the swelling and relieve the pressure on my joints. Acupuncture helps reduce the swelling and get rid of the soreness and achiness I feel. 

Ellen, Greenpoint

Marc Bystock used tests on my pressure points and reflexes to find out the source of my pain. All I know is I was feeling sore and achy all over. He moved my joints around and found out where the worst problems were. Then, he had me visualize my body and how the muscles and joints worked. I do not know how he did it, but the pain is much more tolerable. I go back for my next session in a few days, and I am so excited to see how much progress we make this time. 

Angela S., Jackson Heights


My family physician told me I have osteoarthritis. She gave me a few pamphlets, but not much else. At my regular acupuncture appointment with Marc, I told him what my doctor said, and he immediately began telling me how the things I eat can affect my condition. He also mentioned how using foods and supplements high in Omega-3 fatty acids can help arthritis pain. The doctor and his team have been so supportive helping me understand my condition and how the things I do and eat affect it. I don't know what I would have done or where I would have found all the information they give me. 

Max N., Astoria


I have PCS. My doctor told me it would be difficult to have children. I saw an ad about nutrition and acupuncture during pregnancy and helping women with health issues get pregnant. I am so happy to say after a couple of months of treatment with Marc B. we are now expecting! Our life will never be the same, and we owe it all to Marc Bystock. 

Alyssa Cole, Hudson Heights

I had no clue I could get pregnant faster if I ate better. I thought all the stories around healthy eating and getting pregnant were myths until I found out I have polycystic ovarian syndrome. All it took was a few months of acupuncture to reset my hormones. Learning how eating better from Marc and his team was very helpful. I am finally pregnant. I will be using his services during my pregnancy and after ensuring I can give birth more comfortably and get back to myself after I have the baby. Thank you, Marc Bystock. 

Candice, Sugar Hill


My doctor diagnosed me with Lyme disease and said I needed to see an acupuncture specialist. I thought she was crazy, but I decided to go ahead and get the consultation and opinion at least. I am so glad I did. The Holistic Acupuncture NYC helped me figure out several ways to ease my joint pain. The nutritional supplements they recommended improved my immune system, and I am having much fewer side effects of the Lyme disease than I first had. My monthly acupuncture sessions make the pain more bearable and improve my flexibility when I am feeling stiff and tight. Thanks so much, Marc!

Kelly L., NYC
