My regular chiropractor had moved away, and it took me a couple of years to find a new one. During that time, due to work (sitting at a desk in front of a computer all day) and stress I developed some significant back and neck problems. In short, I was a MESS. From day one Dr. NJ was very welcoming and friendly and immediately set me at ease (I am generally leery of doctors, having had bad experiences in the past).
We jumped right in on day one and he did some in-depth analysis, through brief self-assessments, and conversations where I described my life; sleep, exercise, etc, overall health and work habits and we took some x-rays. By the second appointment he had done a through analysis and put up the x-ray up on screen in front of me to meticulously go over every detail and explain what he was seeing in terms I could understand, addressing my questions along the way. Turns out all that stiffness, limited mobility, and pain was real and we set on moving forward with the plan to get me out of the hole I was in.
Each visit started with some basic back/neck warm up then moved into a series of adjustments. These weren't just the 'crack your back' kind of adjustments, but moving from one station to the next using a variety of tables, chairs, tools and techniques he deliberately began getting my whole neck and spin readjusted and aligned. During this process he also introduced new exercises I can easily do at home designed to go hand and hand with the adjustments. At every appointment I would come in with a new question, about my desk, my chair, my mattress, stretching exercises, all different questions about all kinds things and each time NJ listened and shared his deep knowledge. Together we would look at things like chairs or mattresses (we together looked at new pillows and mattresses toppers...a life changer). He is so helpful and so knowledgeable! I went from a lot of stiffness and pain, to better sleep and overall better quality of life in a just a few months.
It really has a family feeling as his wife (Pronounced: Gwan) works the front desk. I tend to chat with both of them about the things in my life and theirs. Their office is clean, and orderly and in the Northgate area it is extremely easy to get to, and always ample parking!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Insight to anyone! If you have any back or neck issues or have had an accident, do your self a favor and get into see Dr. NJ!
