About Jon Diskin

Jon Diskin focuses on Integrated Orthopedic Acupuncture for pain management and Classical Chinese Herbalism. His care incorporates acupuncture, myofascial release, cupping and electronic stimulation when appropriate.

Jon works with acute injuries and chronic musculoskeletal concerns while making room for the emotional experience of pain. His approach emphasizes collaboration, listening and a treatment plan attuned to each patient’s needs.

His path into Chinese medicine began after a cancer diagnosis in 2010, when he used acupuncture and herbs as support during conventional treatment. He began acupuncture school in 2011. That personal experience continues to inform the presence and compassion he brings to patient care.

Alongside his clinical interests, Jon has explored Eastern philosophy, Tai Qi, Qigong and meditation. He finds joy in nature, family and friends, cooking and running.

“Jon first listened and was very thoughtful about his approach to an athletic injury. It was very helpful even after just the first treatment.”

“I had never experienced acupuncture before and didn’t know what it was all about but the staff and Acupuncturists are so down to earth and experienced that I was put at ease right away. The receptionist is also welcoming, cheerful, and considerate. I saw Jon Diskin regularly for pain and swelling in my ankle. He really does have a gentle manner and is so knowledgeable about ways to get blood circulating so that swelling becomes much less. Also some of the excruciating pain has lessened measurably.”
