What our practice members say: "When I first arrived at the Englander Chiropractic Center, I was quite skeptical about receiving any type of care from a chiropractic doctor. However, the severe sciatica pain I had radiating down my leg was becoming intolerable, so I made an appointment, and tried to keep an open mind. Surprisingly enough, after just one adjustment, the sciatica pain was gone, and I felt immediate pain relief! I left the office feeling good for the first time in months. In subsequent visits, I received a treatment plan tailored specifically for my needs and concerns, and have greatly benefitted from this information. It's amazing how my overall health has improved following my initial visit. My experience at Englander Chiropractic has been very positive and I have received excellent care from Dr. Englander." "My one year old son had tubes put in his ears in January '10 and we still were struggling with inner ear infections and excessive drainage. Nina was recommended to us by a friend and I was hesitant to see how a chiropractor would hep. I felt that it was worth a try and couldn't hurt since we had already exhausted our western medicine options. We came twice a week for two months and went back to our ENT. Our ENT had already said we were going to have to take the tubes out because they weren't working. When we went back after persistent treatment with Nina, our ENT remarked that my son's progress was miraculous. He explained that he hadn't expected the ears to have improved the way they did. So we left the tubes in because now they are working. I know that the miracle was chiropractic care. Nina works great with children and I would (and have) recommend her to anyone else in this situation. Thank you Dr. Nina!" "After you adjusted [my son] and cleared the path for his ears to drain, he said "Mama, I can hear my quiet voice now!” with a huge smile on his face. It makes me so happy that he can articulate to me that his ears feel better (in such a cute way). I wanted to share that with you. Also, knowing that his energy is flowing in a positive way also increases the quality of my life... Just knowing that your chiropractic treatments are helping him so much without us having to flood his little body with medications makes me so happy and truly thankful!" "Dr. Nina saved my neck! No really. I had bone spurs and a herniated disc in my neck when I came crying to Nina. I was in such pain I never thought I would run, bike, or swim again, let alone go on long backpacking trips. The only way I could get a little relief was to keep one hand above my head. I looked like I was perpetually ready to answer any question. Through joint care with Nina and a physical therapist, I am doing all those things and rock climbing as well. My last backpacking trip was in the Indian Himalayas. Though my acute problem was resolved, I continue to get weekly adjustments for alignment from Nina. Through one activity or another, various parts of my body feel a little out of whack. Nina listens to me (and my body) and keeps me fine-tuned so I can be as active as I choose to be. However, a side benefit I have noticed is that I have had less colds and illnesses due to Nina's care. I am a first/second grade teacher, so know my immune system is always being challenged." "I have been taking detox footbaths at Dr. Nina Englander’s office for the last six months. I have Lyme Disease which has caused neuropathy so that there is little feeling from my knees down. In addition to the Lyme Disease I have high levels of mercury in my body (a reading of 3.69 which is very high). On Dr. Nina’s suggestion, I have been doing two detox footbaths per week in combo with a laser treatment and getting regular adjustments. My mercury readings have gone down from 3.69 to 1.50. Also, the pain in my knees has been decreasing recently. Additionally, my blood test results have my doctor all excited because they were 1 to 4 which is very, very low. In fact he has not seen anyone get that low. This is such a miracle that he is going to start a couple of clinical group studies with some of his Lyme patients using the detox footbaths. I plan to continue the footbaths and look forward to my office visits and the friendly atmosphere at Englander Chiropractic Center." "Over a year ago I strained my arm/shoulder and my arm had never regained full range of motion. In fact, I had grown so accustom to my 'new' limited range of motion, I never even thought to bring up this issue to Dr. Nina. Truth be told my limited range of motion was pretty good by most standards and my previous full range of motion was excellent, so I didn't want to complain...I had it good while it lasted. Just a fact of life after injury, right? Wrong! Dr Nina suggested the laser when conversation evolved to this issue; I opted to give it a try. What did I have to lose? Well, after the first treatment...actually, at that first treatment, I was absolutely amazed by the dramatic increase in my arm's range of motion. I continued to work at moving my arm a little more at a time and was still improving. I then hit a plateau after about a month and got another laser treatment and VOILA, range of motion increased more. Arm movement is just about back to what it used to be and I'm about due for, what I believe will be, my last laser session... after only a couple of months!" "This summer, after I sprained my ankle, Dr. Nina recommended several Footbath and Laser sessions along with my regular adjustment. Within a week my ankle was hardly swollen and was bruise-free. By the 6th week, I was free of air cast, ace bandage, and cane--back almost as if the injury had never happened!" "I was experiencing the symptoms of a urinary tract infection. I started taking supplements from my arsenal of cranberry pills and herbs, but the infection was not responding. I had a friend that used the laser for a kidney problem and it resolved beautifully, so I decided to try the laser for my UTI. After my first 4-minute session, my symptoms were dramatically reduced. After 2 more sessions, the infection was gone entirely. There was relief so quickly and the best part is I did not need to use antibiotics!" “Dr. Nina has convinced me that chiropractic care is the way to go: from discovering my severe Vitamin B12 deficiency on my second appointment ever with her (which my regular physician never figured out!), to pointing out that my daily ingestion of dairy products and eggs might not be so great for my body, to helping my arthritic lower back gain flexibility, she has given me a new outlook on life! I feel like a transformed woman: full of energy, sleeping and digesting well - my body feels like a well-oiled machine!” “I feel so energized and ‘together’ physically after an adjustment!” “With each Footbath, I feel more clarity in my mind and my ability to be present in my body and life!” Every time I do I footbath I feel like a cloud has been lifted; particularly if I feel a bit sluggish and gloomy. I also do it when I feel like I am coming down with a cold. Most of all, I think that using the footbath once a week can increase my life’s vitality and joy! I also use the laser for a variety of things, but for its core benefit of vitality & regeneration of cells. I use it the most on my shoulder, which proves painful about once a week. I apply the laser for a few minutes and feel reduced pain within an hour, if not sooner! “I feel like a seed and I have been replanted, but this time I am being fertilized—now I can grow and blossom. No more brown leaves for me--thanks to regular adjustments, the EBPro Detoxifying Footbath, and the Laser!” "I like coming to Dr. Nina because I can tell she is not just a doctor; she is also a mommy!"
