Chiropractor
96-14 63rd Drive Rego Park New York, 11374About
I have spent 21 years in a multidiciplinary practice. I have worked with medical doctors ,physical therapists and massage therapists in a very busy office.
When these professions work together, the results are amazing.
I am a big proponent of spinal decompression and manipulation under anesthesia for the treatment of chronic disc problems, and have seen clinicallythe drastic improvements that result from these types treatments.
I have also seen great results from the use of K-Laser treatment (Class 4), for the reduction of pain and adhesions.
