About the practitioner
Adam Moskow, A.P.
Swimmer, biker, golfer, yogi, weight trainer, snowboarder, kitesurfer — and acupuncture physician for over 20 years. I became a practitioner because I needed one myself: a wrecked back, chronic inflammation, and lab work a cardiologist called a “ticking time bomb” sent me searching for answers at 31.
I found them — and now I get my patients to the same place.
What I treat
Three medicines, one goal
Acupuncture does more than fix mechanical problems — it calms the nervous system, eases pain, settles digestion, and restores balance. Traditional Chinese Medicine restores balance from the inside out — stress, sleep, digestion, mood. Functional medicine goes deeper still — gut, hormones, inflammation, metabolism. I work across all three, but only when your case calls for all of them. We build your plan from whichever discipline best fits your condition and goals — most people need one, some need two, and the approach is personalized from the start.
01 — Sports acupuncture &
dry needling
Get back in the game
Athletes, weekend warriors, and anyone with a body that has to perform. Orthopedic acupuncture (also called motor-point acupuncture or dry needling) goes straight to muscles that aren’t firing properly — re-activating them, releasing trigger points, and stopping the compensations that cause pain and slow you down.
Most cases of muscular inhibition respond within a few treatments. Soft-tissue work, including Gua Sha and cupping, typically follows needling to restore glide and mobility.
02 — Acupuncture
Pain relief, without the mask
Back and neck pain, migraines, arthritis, muscle tightness, chronic pain you can’t name. Traditional and Balance Method acupuncture — needles are hair-thin, disposable, and barely perceptible going in. Most patients feel deeply relaxed, often euphoric, by the end of a session.
Sessions run about 60 minutes after your first visit; needles rest 20–45 minutes while you unwind with music in a warm room. See what to expect →
03 — Traditional Chinese Medicine
Calm your mind. Settle your gut. Restore balance.
When your whole system is out of whack — wired but tired, anxious, sleeping badly, gut acting up — Traditional Chinese Medicine has answers Western medicine often doesn’t. Acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and cupping work together to recover your natural equilibrium.
I’m board-certified in Chinese herbology — herbal formulas are carefully prescribed and fine-tuned to your constitution and your progress. Treatment stays simple, too: I prescribe convenient granule and prepared formulas — no raw herbs to boil at home.
04 — Functional Medicine
Find the root cause. Address it properly.
Gut problems, metabolic syndrome and pre-diabetes, inflammation, hormone imbalances, fatigue that doesn’t quit. Functional medicine is personalized, root-cause care — including blood and functional lab analysis — built around prevention and meaningful lifestyle change rather than managing symptoms forever.
Normal isn’t optimal — we read your labs against functional ranges. See the process →
New-patient functional appointments run about 90 minutes — enough time to actually understand your history.
Not nearby? Functional medicine works fully over video — full history, lab analysis, and a personalized plan, from anywhere. (Acupuncture is in-person only.)
Root-cause medicine
What is functional medicine?
Short answer: medicine that asks why. It looks beneath your diagnosis to the real drivers of illness — then addresses those, instead of managing symptoms forever.
01
Philosophy
Symptoms are signals, not the disease itself. Functional medicine treats illness as a system that’s lost its balance — and recovery as finding the hidden drivers and correcting them, with a plan built around your body, not pulled off a shelf.
02
Process
Your full story first — history, habits, how you actually feel day to day — then functional lab testing to pinpoint hormone imbalances, digestive problems, inflammation, and nutrient gaps. Nothing guessed at.
03
Treatment
Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine where they fit, alongside targeted quality supplements, nutrition, and realistic lifestyle change. Progress is re-measured, and your plan evolves as you do.
Commonly treated conditions
A lot of what walks through my door falls into four groups:
Pain & sports care
Sports injuries, back & neck pain, sciatica, tendinitis, chronic muscle & joint pain, surgical rehab
Digestion & gut health
Digestive issues, gut imbalance, chronic inflammation, immune support
Stress, anxiety & sleep
Stress & anxiety relief, insomnia, chronic tension, migraines
Metabolic & hormone health
Blood sugar & metabolic issues, hormone imbalances, chronic fatigue
Dealing with one of these?
Start with a free introductory call. Tell me what’s going on — if your case is one I can help with, we’ll get you booked. If not, you’ll still leave knowing more than you did.
Conditions We Treat
What brings people here
Pain, stress, digestion, and the conditions that come with an active South Florida life. Pick a condition to see how orthopedic acupuncture and functional medicine can help — every case is personalized, not pulled off a shelf.
What to expect
Your first visit, explained
01
Full evaluation
Your first visit runs about 90 minutes: intake review, detailed questions about your history and goals, and hands-on testing — muscle testing, pulse and tongue diagnosis, and orthopedic assessment where relevant.
02
An honest plan
You’ll get a treatment recommendation matched to your condition and your goals. If your case isn’t one where this medicine can help, you’ll be told so — we only take on patients we’re confident we can help.
03
Treatment, same day
After the exam we move right into your first treatment. Follow-ups run about 60 minutes — needles rest while you relax with music, and soft-tissue work often follows for immediate improvement.
Before you come in
Complete your intake forms ahead of time — it saves time and makes your first visit far more useful.
- Eat a light meal before acupuncture treatments.
- Wear comfortable, loose clothing.
- Skip rigorous exercise for two hours before and after.
Appointments
New-patient visits are typically 90 minutes. Follow-up acupuncture runs 45–60 minutes depending on your treatment plan.
New patients start with a free introductory call — please don’t book online until you’ve talked with Adam.
For returning patients only: book online anytime.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Do acupuncture needles hurt?
Almost never. Acupuncture needles are hair-thin — nothing like hollow hypodermic needles — and they go only a few millimeters deep. Most people feel little more than a vague numbness, heaviness, or slight tingling, if anything at all.
What does a treatment session involve?
After your needles are placed, you rest for 20–45 minutes with soothing music in a warm room. The treatment works whether you feel anything dramatic or not. Most patients leave relaxed — sometimes euphoric — and many report stiffness, pain, and movement improving immediately.
How long does a visit take?
Your first visit is about 1.5 hours and includes both the full examination and your first treatment. Follow-up acupuncture visits generally run about an hour (some treatment plans, such as the Wilton Manors clinic visits, run 30 minutes).
How should I prepare for treatment?
Eat before you come, wear comfortable clothes, and plan to avoid rigorous exercise for at least two hours before and after your session. New patients should fill out the intake forms before their first visit.
Do you use clean needles?
Always. Only sterile, disposable needles — used once, then discarded.
Where are the intake forms?
I send the intake forms to you personally after you book your visit.
Do you offer online appointments?
Yes — functional medicine consults are available fully online, because they’re built on conversation, history, and lab analysis rather than hands-on treatment. Deep-dive consults and follow-ups all work over video, wherever you live. Acupuncture is in-person only at the Wilton Manors and Delray Beach offices. Either way, new patients start with a free intro call first.
