Xilin F. Jordan is a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, holding an NCCAOM diploma, and licensed in three states. She was born and primarily trained in China, and completed four years of further study in Oriental medicine at the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in New York, where she earned her American degrees and expanded her knowledge of Western medicine as well. In addition, Dr. Jordan absolved a personal apprenticeship with the noted acupuncturist Dr. Zhang Zheng Hai in China, where she continues periodically to work in teams with other doctors at hospitals in Zhu Hai, Shijiazhuang and Nantong, treating conditions such as post-stroke syndromes, Bell’s palsy, muscular disorders, head, back, neck, shoulder and wrist pain, and various chronic diseases. In her private practice, Dr. Jordan has also emphasized women’s problems, including issues of fertility.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Health Exercise Science from The College of New Jersey and a degree from the Eastern School of Traditional Medicine in Acupuncture. I am Board certified by the NCCAOM and a New Jersey licensed acupuncturist.

I believe that 95% of all conditions can be cleared and healed with acupuncture, nutrition, and certain lifestyle changes. I teach and coach all my clients to heal themselves, this is the key to long term health of everyone.

Empower your body to heal naturally

Many Disciplines. One Patient.

In the spirit of Traditional Chinese Medicine, a primary goal of Essential Health Acupuncture is to provide our patients with a broader understanding of health and more lasting sense of well-being. Instead of a disease-centered focus, Traditional Chinese Medicine applies a patient-centered approach that addresses the whole person rather than simply his/her symptoms.

Essential Health Acupuncture combines the disciplines of modern science with the wisdom of ancient healing and takes advantage of the knowledge of several disciplines including, acupunture, tui na (Chinese body work), cupping therapy, diet/nutrition education, physical, mental and emotional health, and Chinese herbology. Other medical modalities that are being utilized are also taken into account to provide the utmost care for the individual. This allows patient and provider to work together to develop an integrated diagnostic and therapeutic plan that will best address the whole patient.

My goal is to help you achieve optimum health and wellness. Having evolved over thousands of years, Acupuncture is one of the oldest continually practiced medical modalities in the world. Acupuncture is used to prevent and treat disease, relieve pain, balance mood, enhance performance, increase fertility, and improve overall health and wellness.

My personal belief and experience is that each and every person can heal naturally - our body wants to be healthy, pain free and full of life! Here, the setting is a medical practice located in the Upper West Side of Manhattan; it has a clean and crisp decor with a spa-like atmosphere making you feel comfortable and at ease the moment you walk in. Each patient is given one-on-one attention in a private room to get the best care possible.

Once your care is complete, you will leave feeling relaxed and invigorated while your body continues the process of healing even after your treatment.
