Not wanting to forever depend on anti-inflammatory drugs, I tried acupuncture. I had two sessions with Jessica Silver and what a difference! I now have full range of motion and the knee is great. Even the cold weather doesn’t bother me. I am definitely a satisfied patient and would recommend her completely.
