I was just searching around for a new massage place and came across Firestone Chiropractic & Wellness. The website has online booking which made scheduling an appointment extremely easy. I booked an appointment with Derek and during my first appointment, it was very informative, relaxing and I haven't felt such relief in my lower back in a while! It was extremely relaxing as a therapeutic massage and informative as Derek spoke with me after our massage to provide me with tips to help strengthen/alleviate my back. I've already scheduled my next appointment and can't wait to go back! I highly recommend this place as they are very knowledgeable and professional. Booking my next appointment was a breeze as well.

Unlike other chiropractors I've used since I left Firestone, Kara was strong enough to adjust my back with her hands (I'm a larger male). She always provided great advice for stretches to help recover from injuries. Great personality too!

I've suffered from a bad lower back for years as well as a host of other issues like a stiff neck,…read morebad shoulders, and an arthritic left hip. My hope was to be able to get back some normalcy with range of motion and pain-control, knowing it would likely never be perfect. But after three months of work with both doctors, I feel so much relief that I've already exceeded my expectations for the treatment. Both doctors are kind, compassionate, and very attentive. They are great note takers and track my progress, asking very targeted follow-up questions and then emailing at-home exercise and stretching routines. They never rush through a session, and patiently answer all of my questions. I've used two other chiropractic offices before, but I absolutely can't ever consider going anywhere else. This is the best chiropractic office in the area.

I've seen Dr Micah Amato a few times now and he has been great! For the first visit which was a…read moreconsultation visit, we had a great discussion/conversation where he tried to learn and understand all aspects of my discomfort and what activities or history that could have contribute to it. He encouraged me to ask him any questions so that I can understand what and why the discomfort may be happening. In the 2nd appointment, he explained the test results and next steps to me in "common people's" terms. It was also my first adjustment and he worked on the area where I've been having discomfort for a while. Later that evening when I laid in bed, that area no longer gave me the discomfort! Looking forward to the upcoming adjustments will continue to help me feel better and better. Only regret is I should have gone sooner!

I first went to Dr. Darragh 9 years ago because I was tired of aching all over. Some orthopedic…read moreissues were throwing me off and I thought I was going to live with chronic pain for the rest of my life. I got new medical insurance that covered Chiropractic and thought I would try Dr. D. Well, 9 years later and I can't imagine where I would be without Dr. D. He is so knowledgeable, respectful, capable, and encouraging. Regular adjustments help my body heal itself no matter what is going on, and the pains that I thought were inevitable turned out to be transient and manageable. And I have to mention the heart and soul of the office - Amelia the Chiropractic Assistant. She creates such a warm and welcoming feeling there. I relax as soon as I see her face. Dr. D. and Amelia are a great team.

I had been to another chiropractor that said that she couldn't really give me an adjustment because I was pregnant. Not only was Dr. Darragh able to see me, he has a special table just for pregnant patients. He is also trained in the Webster technique of turning breech babies (which I was fortunate not to need). I've taken both my newborn infant and toddler daughters for adjustments with Dr. Darragh. Not only do I trust Dr. Darragh with their health, he and the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming to children. Dr. Darragh is focused on real health and healthcare, not just palliatives.

The "predator" review is spot on. I took a chance on this doctor in desperation to address extreme…read moreanxiety. I knew it was an "off-the-board" kind of treatment, but decided to give it a try. My exasperation with the "official" medical establishment is one factor that led me here. TL;DR: turns out it's basically homeopathy, meaning lame, unconvincing sleight (and I mean VERY sleight) of hand combined with meaningless psychobabble. Along with two assistants, she went through a procedure that is supposed to find all the bad stuff your body has problems with: She has you hold your arm up and resist her pushing on it, while putting pressure on some part of the body or resting a bottle of some substance on your stomach. When something is "good," you "successfully" resist her pushing. When it's "bad", she waggles your arm back and forth too quickly for you to adjust and push back and says "that organ is weak." It's kind of like you're a human Ouija board, LOL. She kept asking if I understood if I "got it" how one thing was strong and one was weak based on this, and I said, "uh, not really, it just seems like you're changing how periodically you push and pull." She testily said "NO. If you don't get this, we can't continue." (and of course the payment has already cleared the bank) After a few minutes of this, I'm thinking "This is nonsense." I figured I would be polite and wait til they were done and then just never come back. I occasionally asked clarifying questions, and she seemed to think her answers had some kind of logic to them, but nothing she said made any sense. At over an hour in, it was getting difficult to not roll my eyes. She went through the same routine with the bottles of vitamins I brought with me. Presses bottle to my chest, waggles my arm. "Bad." Another bottle. Waggle. "Bad bad." She read the ingredients of my Vitamin C & Zinc bottle, telling me how bad it is, and then suggested I "give this to someone you hate." :o That's what you call "professional." Then she pulled out some "gene chart" that any layperson isn't going to know up from down, throws out some impressive terminology, and said we need to test my genes. It will take from 15m to an hour. "ANOTHER HOUR?" I said. "Well, only if your genes have problems." I am not a rude person, and do not like confrontation, but at that point I abruptly sat up and said "I need to go." I got up and went to put my shoes on and collect my belongings from the table near the door. "But, we're not--" I told her this was absolute BULLSHIT and walked out. The three of them stood there with mouths agape as if this has NEVER happened before. This is "health care" for the hard of thinking. The old phrase pops to mind: "Be open-minded, but not SO open-minded that your brains fall out." (LOL to the 4-star reviewer who seems to think they are being overly critical)

It is not often I feel compelled to write a review, however, Dr Medwar and her team deserve this!…read moreFirst off, I am a registered nurse and believe in western medicine because that is what I was taught. I thought eastern medicine was mmmm a hoax! My daughter and son in law gave my husband and I the gift of life when they gave us gift cards for the initial 3 visits for evaluation. I decided to go in with an open mind. Not going to lie, my husband and I were a bit skeptical during the evaluation phase but decided to follow through because it was already paid for and we felt we had nothing to lose. We are both overweight and in an unhealthy state at present. My husband's diabetes was out of control. In just four short weeks we have both lost 15-20#'s! My husband's diabetes blood sugar has gone from 250-350 on massive doses of insulin down to 80-130 on less than 1/3 of the insulin he was taking! I use to nap on my days off just to get through the day. I am now sleeping less overnight and no longer taking naps! My energy level is that of a younger woman. I cringed a little with the price of the supplements but they do last for the initial "detox" period. So, you can either pay for prescriptions to treat bad health, or you can get in her program and pay for great health and wellness! Thank you Dr Medwar and team for setting my husband and I on the right path. Life is good again! To the nay sayers and the ones who wrote the bad reviews, did you go in with an open mind? Did you let Dr Medwar complete her evaluation? Did you try her program? If you haven't then you should. In just 3-4 weeks my husband and I both started to feel great. Bullshit this is not!

My health insurance was in his network and that is how I came to him. His receptionist, Lisa is a sweetie and a gem. She made it a bit less anxious and painful to go there. Really! That's how pleasant and nice she is. Appointments are easy to make and to schedule. I was in and out in under 30 minutes which was appreciated. I would def go back again to him if I was in pain. I am glad I have him on board with my neck and back issues. I would def recommend him to anyone.

If I could give Dr Pendolino and his staff 6-stars, I'd do it in a heartbeat…read more I've been to upwards of a couple dozen chiropractors over the years. They're all very nice but "nice" only gets you so far. When I go to a chiropractor, I'm going for 2 reasons; 1. Relief; and 2. To get a LOT of questions answered; That's just how I am. When I go to any doctor, I want to know... 1. If the doctor can comprehend precisely what I'm going through; 2. How it got that way based on the info I gave him/her; and 3. What can be done about it; and 4. If it's truly rehab'-able, or if it's a forever maintenance kind of thing. I want someone who not only can answer my questions with an air of expertise, but who also WANTS to answer my questions and WANTS me to REALLY understand what s/he understands the path of healing/restoration that is available to me. Dr. Michael Pendolino is GUILTY of all of the above. First, his reception Lisa is, how do I put this?, kind of like a big sister/young mother. She's very sharp, great with details and sorta thinks to remind you of everything you need to know in case you forget it. Which is good because I can lose my socks on my way from the bedroom to the kitchen. Dr Pendolino has a very sharp, engaging mind. You can tell, without a doubt, that he's extremely knowledgeable and exceptionally passionate about his work. To-date, I have only done spinal decompression here. If you don't know what it is, Google it, but it's a fairly recent, proven therapy that helps restore healthy disk function. So, if you have collapsed and/or bulging disks, or pinched nerves, etc, a few pulls on this Star-Trek looking thing and you start to notice some "interesting" relief. My head just wasn't ready to believe I felt better so quickly from a collapsed disk I'd had in my lower cervical. Spinal decompression is not covered by insurance and it can be a bit pricey but they have a financing company available and, even with a couple of credit blips, I was able to get credit instantly. Believe me, if your back/neck is hurting because of disk problems, this is totally worth it! I can't yet speak for his regular chiro mojo but, if you are suffering from back/neck problems, I strongly suggest you contact Dr. Pendolino and set up an appointment for a consultation with him. He'll answer all your questions to your complete satisfaction. There is also a phyiscal therapist and acupuncturist in the office, and a massage therapist coming soon.
