It was relaxing and has greatly helped the back pain…
Suffering back pain for about 3 years, while visiting my son for a week, he made an appointment for me with Mr. Smith, whom he had seen previously and was successfully treated. Mr. Smith explained the function of acupuncture and his treatment. It was relaxing and has greatly helped the back pain. I plan to continue acupuncture treatment at home.

Ryan is the best…
I have been to a number of acupuncturists and I think Ryan is the best one I have seen. He listens to your whole story first and every medical problem and then he addresses everything one by one. He does everything very compassionately and carefully and makes sure you are comfortable while he is treating you. I would recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a good caring acupuncturist.

In only a few sessions, my neck was back to normal…
After 6 months (and way too much money wasted) on a chiropractor, I went to Ryan Smith, and in only a few sessions, my neck was back to normal. Now I go weekly for general upkeep and I always leave feeling relaxed and zenn’ed out. I love it, and Ryan is awesome.

He’s very attentive to my concerns…
I’ve been working with Ryan for a few months, and he’s the best. He’s very attentive to my concerns.
Eric R.
He is excellent!
Ryan was highly recommended to me and I must say he is excellent! Ryan has taken the time to make me feel comfortable and address my issues. He has talked me through the process of acupuncture as this was my first time trying this method of pain relief. The setting is relaxing and when my time is up I just want to lay there in total bliss. Thank you Ryan!

…my pain had almost gone away completely.
Ryan was recommended to me by a client of mine after I mentioned cervical pain. Within a day or 2 of my 1st session my pain had almost gone away completely. I really did not have much faith in acupuncture but Ryan was incredible.
Erik S.
He has what I’d call ‘the touch’…
Ryan Smith is a wonderful person and an excellent acupuncturist, wonderfully proficient and knowledgeable. He combines different styles of acupuncture with Chinese herbal medicine in a synergy that is uniquely his own. I have been seeing him for years now and my body loves the results. He has what I’d call ‘the touch’. I highly recommend him to one and all.

He is the sweetest man with a genuine love for his clients…
Ryan has such a gentle touch. He is the sweetest man with a genuine love for his clients. Every time I leave his office I am physically relieved from pain. My biggest issue has been insomnia and I’ve been sleeping like a baby since my last visit. Thank you Ryan!

Ryan can work miracles!
Ryan can work miracles! I have three herniated discs in my spine and was in constant pain. Two visits to Ryan and I feel like I have a whole new back. I am able to live freely again, without pain! Ryan truly listens to his patients, and cares about their health. He is a wonderful person and acupuncturist!

Love my appointments with Ryan…
Love my appointments with Ryan. He’s super talented and kind! I go monthly even if I don’t have issues just to be healthy.

He’s an excellent listener…
Ryan is immensely knowledgeable, skilled, and intuitive. He’s an excellent listener. You won’t find a better acupuncturist.

Can’t say enough about how wonderful Ryan is…
I can’t say enough about how wonderful Ryan is. I have recommended him to several people and all rave about him.

As a person who has gotten acupuncture treatments for well over 20 years, it was great to find Ryan. His technique is very different than others and highly recommend him.

Ryan has great “beside manner”…
Ryan has great “beside manner”, his methods are affective and I go monthly just as health maintenance. He’s also affordable as I don’t have insurance.

His warmth and care always make my visits beyond enjoyable…
I’ve seen Ryan for several different reasons over the past few years and cannot recommend him enough. Besides being an effective acupuncturist, his warmth and care always make my visits beyond enjoyable. I whole-heartedly recommend him to everyone I know all the time.

He’s by far and away the best…
I have had multiple injuries with my hips and back from being a competitive athlete. I have seen numerous acupuncturists before finding Ryan. He’s by far and away the best. He listens and treats with different techniques that release the muscle tension. It has greatly helped reduce the pain and is helping to keep me active.

And I only wish I could see him every day…
He is the best and lovely and I only wish I could see him every day….that is how good/great I feel after.

Every athlete, pro or weekend warrior, should see him!
I arrived depressed about a tennis shoulder injury that I made worse by continuing to play. If Ryan were like most healthcare pros, I’d still be depressed. Instead, I’m very optimistic; his trigger point treatment targeted my strained muscles and his detailed, kind explanation of my condition, treatment & recovery gave me much relief & hope. Ryan’s skills/bedside manner + knowledge of/treatment for sports injuries are exceptional. Every athlete, pro or weekend warrior, should see him!
Jina K.
Skilled and a delight…
Talented, caring, insightful, expert, skilled and a delight. Arrive unable to walk, leave dancing. That’s how good he is.
Joseph P.
He made the pain disappear…
Once again I went to Ryan to help with pains in my legs. He didn’t just help, he made the pain disappear. Thanks Ryan
Jeff S.

I am a true believer now…
After seeing Tim regularly for several months, I look forward to my sessions, for several reasons: Tim starts each appointment checking on how I am feeling overall and determining areas that are of concern. He probes to be sure he is providing he most effective treatment. Tim explains what his plan for the session will be, so I know what to expect. Finally, Tim monitors my reaction to each needle to understand how I am reacting.

Ryan helps me to live without pain…
Ryan’s methods conform to each individual and works with you to give you better over all wellness. I went threw PT for 1 year & was not able to run as my leg would go to sleep from my L5 disk pinching the nerve. Ryan gave my back a chance to heal by taking the added muscle pain away. I ran after 1 session! 2 more times & my pain was down from a constant 6 to a 1. Ryan helps me to live without pain. He is kind & I highly recommend him for anyone & their over all wellness.

I did not feel the needles and felt quite restful…
I was recommended to Ryan by both a friend and NYU’s Clinical Caner Center. Ryan took the time to find out what my particular needs were in order to tailor his approach. I did not feel the needles and felt quite restful. I am looking forward to going back to him as his kindness, concern and gentle manner made me feel at ease.
Caroline R.
He made me a believer in acupuncture…
Ryan’s services were very professional. He was extremely knowledgeable about what my ailments were and how to help me. He made me a believer in acupuncture. I will surely be back!
Joshua P.
Ryan took the extra time to explain everything…
Since this was my first ever experience with acupuncture, I was definitely unsure of what to expect. Ryan took the extra time to explain everything and he was really an amazingly gentle and calming presence. He is constantly checking in with you to make sure you’re doing well with the treatment. While I’ve only had 2 treatments thus far, I feel great and am looking forward to more progress with him. I highly recommend him to anyone considering acupuncture!

Tim has turned out to be more than I could have asked for in an acupuncturist.
Tim has turned out to be more than I could have asked for in an acupuncturist. I’ve always known the power of acupuncture, but the way that Tim works is truly special. He has helped me with all my body ailments, mental clarity, energy, and has helped restore my sleep. I recommend the practice when ever i can.

I have suffered with sciatica for 15 years
I have suffered with sciatica for 15 years, and acupuncture has always been part of my treatment regimens;. I have been going to Tim and Ryan for the past year and they are wonderful. They approach the treatment physically and holistically, understanding that it all connects. During every visit, thorough notes are taken during evaluation, and follow-up with previous concerns or issues before starting next treatment. Tim is gentle, but effective, always checking in for comfort level. I can say that my pain level has dramatically deceased since being treated by Tim and Ryan.
Nancy R.
I cannot recommend Timothy Bish enough.
I cannot recommend Timothy Bish enough. I have been receiving acupuncture treatments for over 10 years now and he has been the most effective acupuncturist by far. His treatments are extremely thorough while still being gentile and very attentive. I especially went to him for some muscular tension in my legs that another acupuncturist and regular massage therapy couldn’t seem to really fix. He got to the heart of it right away. I now see him regularly. He has seriously worked wonders on me!
Lane K.
Tim comes with my highest recommendation.
Tim comes with my highest recommendation. He’s especially great for people (like myself) who before coming to him have never done acupuncture. He spends significant time and attention in your first session learning about you and your health as a whole person, which I found incredibly refreshing. During each session, he constantly and clearly communicates what he’s doing and makes sure you’re comfortable and that he understands what you’re feeling in response. In a short amount of time, he’s helped me make major progress in healing from injuries I’ve been struggling with for years. You’re in great hands when you’re with Tim.
John K.
Tim was able to alleviate the pain and is VERY TALENTED!
I have been a longtime client of Ryan’s and when he was unavailable Tim stepped in. Tim listened to all of my concerns was extremely attentive, tailored and explained his approach to my issues. He was able to alleviate the pain and is VERY TALENTED! Now when booking the biggest “issue” is having to choose between Ryan and Tim.

He has a professional, yet warm bedside manner- I feel he really cares for his patients well being
I have long been a proponent of acupuncture and the Oriental approach to medicine and healing, hence I have seen and experienced many different doctors and treatments. Usually with the treatments in the past, my trust in the doctor is the sole factor I rely upon without getting too involved in the process- it seems to be a more general experience, rather than specific to my needs. After working with Timothy for a few years I have to say it’s been a refreshing and revitalizing experience. He has a professional, yet warm bedside manner- I feel he really cares for his patients well being; and he is gentle with the use of his needles, which is important to me. Every time I go to Timothy with a specific complaint or ailment, he seems to know how to zero in on it and brings me back to a pain free existence. I would highly recommend Timothy to anyone who is looking for a smart, caring and focused acupuncture experience that is looking to feel results.

5 Point Acupuncture expert Tim Bish literally changed the way I move through the world!!
5 Point Acupuncture expert Tim Bish literally changed the way I move through the world!! I am an athletic professional, 40 something man and have worked out consistently for more 20 years. A few months ago I began experiencing pain in my leg that was almost unbearable and most likely caused by too much stress and a lack of flexibility. I decided to try acupuncture after physical therapy wasn’t giving me the results I was hoping for and must admit I was a bit skeptical and that as a type-a, control freak, hands on New Yorker, I absolutely hate needles. Tim Bish made me feel immediately at ease and began the session with a conversation about my life, stress, etc that guided his treatment. I’m not sure how it works but after my first session I saw immediate results and in no time achieved 100 percent recovery.
Thank you Tim and thank you 5 Point Acupuncture.
