Mark A. Jacknin, DO

Osteopathic medicine treats the body as a connected system, not just isolated symptoms. Mark A. Jacknin, DO brings that philosophy to Washington Heights, where the approach often includes hands-on techniques to ease muscle tension, improve circulation, and support the body’s natural ability to heal. Many in the neighborhood turn to osteopaths for back pain, joint stiffness, or recurring headaches—conditions that conventional medicine sometimes addresses with medication alone. Here, the focus stays on movement, alignment, and how each part of the body influences the others.
