VASHNI'S SPECIALTIES

Male and Female Infertility, Cancer Care, Stress and Anxiety, Depression, Chronic Pain 

VASHNI NILON

Vashni is a licensed acupuncturist with a real love of Western Medicine. She values an integrated approach and is particularly interested in treating infertility – both male and female. She treats patients undergoing fertility treatments as well as those hoping to conceive naturally. Her other specialties and passions are patients dealing with cancer, anxiety, depression and pain of all kinds. A big proponent of corporate wellness, she, along with Steve Mavros, implemented an acupuncture program at Urban Outfitters which is still going strong today.

Her first experience with acupuncture was after a wretched year of chemotherapy and surgery. She is currently cancer free and knew from her first acupuncture treatment that this is what she wanted to do for the rest of her life.

She received her Masters Degree in Acupuncture from the Won Institute in Glenside, PA.

What do you love to treat?

My absolute favorite thing to treat is fertility. I help make families. I work with hope and there is nothing better than that.  I also treat chronic pain, anxiety and help people with side effects of cancer treatment. 

Who are your favorite patients?

I like patients who are willing to give acupuncture a try - despite skepticism. Some of my best patient experiences have been with people who look at me like I'm nuts but leave blissed out and feeling much better.

What is your philosophy?

Do no harm, help when you can but also understand that like anything else, acupuncture isn't for everyone. If it's not working, I'll try to suggest something else that can but I won't drag you back for no reason. Your health is the ultimate goal
