I am a huge fan of Align Wellness. Ive been seeing Dr. Gregg for over 3 years and together, we have learned how my body reacts to different treatments. I trust Dr. Gregg because I know that when I lay on his table and explain that my rib might be out or my pelvis is tight, he trusts my judgement and makes the necessary adjustments. The folks in the office are really great, and scheduling is very flexible. I was tough for me to buy in to chiropractic originally because I associated it with alternative medicine such as Echinacea - which has been proven effective only as a placebo effect. However, there is a science to chiropractic that involves the physics and biology that I never realized. Everything is connected in your body, and a slight misalignment here might have huge repercussions elsewhere. If youre new to chiropractic there is one thing you absolutely need to know: the first couple of weeks you will probably feel worse or feel no improvement. You muscles are being pulled into a new positions and need to acclimate. My advice to you is to be patient and have faith that you will feel better soon!

I have been treated by Dr. Gerstin for 4 months and have seen very substantial progress. I present a real challenge since I have lost 5" in height over the last 50 years and have had stenosis and scoliosis all this time. Also, my lower back hurt so much that I found it difficult to stand for more than a minute or two. When I started treatment I was hunched forward and my head and shoulders were far ahead of normal (by 5.19" and 1.14"). After 3 months the readings are 3.3" and .08" and I can stand quite straight. I can also stand in one place for a much longer period and have less pain in my lower back. Dr. Gerstin and his staff seem to be very knowledgeable about what manipulations, traction procedures and exercises are necessary to achieve a maximum degree of correction. I highly recommend them.

Highly recommended! Whether you are looking for care after a car accident, like I was, or just want to live a pain free life and stay healthy! I was in everyday pain on a level 8 or above from a car accident and wanted to find a great chiropractor that could help me get back to living life pain free again. The care I received with Dr. Gersten allowed me to get back to my normal activities and I have been able to stay active and enjoy life with zero to little pain! He also knows and believes in the importance of on going treatment and respects your timeline and goals to get there. I moved across country and wish to continue care and he was nice enough to recommend a great doctor in my area too. I am am genuinely thankful! Stop searching and trying to find your new doctor, this is the place to go!

For the past several months I have been experiencing pain radiating from my neck, down my back and shoulder, and into my left arm, sometimes three or four times a day. This discomfort can last for hours at a time and include numbness in the fingers in my left hand. Dr Gerstin evaluated my condition and provided me with a treatment plan of action to address my pain. I was pleasantly surprised that after only two weeks into the program the frequency and level of the pain I had been experiencing had greatly diminished. I would tell people that are sick, suffering and in pain to learn about chiropractic, and consider an appointment with Dr Gerstin. I am confident that this course of treatment will correct the condition that has caused me so much pain over the last several months.

I’ve had minor lower back issues for some time, usually remedied by a quick trip to the chiropractor. However, over the last year and a half or so, they got progressively worse, adjustments stopped working and I was in pain most of the time.This made it very difficult to exercise, chase my kids around, walk the dog, etc. In June, I discovered Align Wellness and have felt like myself for the first time in a long time. The combination of adjustments, stim, and therapy to help correct the misalignment in my back has really done the trick. I am finally able to work out again. This past weekend, my daughter and I put together an IKEA bookshelf (two hours!) and I was completely pain-free. Many thanks to Dr. Gregg, Dr. Ryan, and the rest of the gang at Align Wellness.

I found Align Wellness Center online. I had been suffering with back & neck pain for about 3 years. I couldnt stand or sit for more than 30 minutes and I would wake up several times during the night with serious pain. I met with Dr. Gerstin for a consultation, he was very thorough going over my medical history, he did a posture screening and took x-rays right in the office. The next day I went back for the results & his treatment recommendations. I felt relief after my first adjustment! I can be on my feet for longer periods of time; I can sit through an entire movie! This may seem small but to me its a giant victory. Dr. Gregg is my hero - I have my life back!

Dr. Greg is by far the most ingenious thorough intuitive chiropractor that I have ever met I was originally with another chiropractor that saved me from surgery and I moved locations I was very fortunate to find Dr. Greg he continues to keep me pain-free and strong. He also discovered I have the beginnings of arthritis and is working with me to stop the progression and remain flexible and retrain my posture so I do not cause any damage in the future. He is part of my weekly routine of self-care and preventative medicine The staff is friendly and knowledgable and welcoming if there was a higher rating than five stars I would give him a 10

Do you want your back pain to go away? Then you have to go see Dr. Gregg. I suffered from terrible low back pain and leg numbness for years. I went and saw my family physician and a different chiropractor and nothing changed. Then I found Align Wellness. Dr. Gregg took x-rays of my spine and pictures of my posture. Together we then came up with a program for me and within the first week I was feeling results. Now I live pain free. I can play hockey, play with my kids, and even wake up in the morning with no pain. Dr. Greggs staff is super friendly and they make you feel relaxed and at home on every visit. Go see him !!

When I showed up to Align Wellness at first, my posture was horrible. I couldnt stand up straight and my body was leaning to the left. If you can imagine the slash sign on a computer, that is what I looked like standing as straight as I could. I also had a hump in the middle of my back which caused a lot of pain. Since I have been going to Align and working with Dr. Gregg, I can proudly say that I am almost 100% straight vertically and centered where I am supposed to be. Also, the hump is just about non existent as well. Much thanks!!!!

Dr. Gerstin and his staff are great! Im a guitarist who has some spinal disalignment issues and Ive been working with Dr. Gerstin for a while now. The pain in my neck and my shoulder has been steadily becoming less pronounced and Ive also noticed positive health benefits in other parts of my life - for instance my lung capacity feels much less constricted by the shape of my spine. Id reccomend Align Wellness Center to anyone who has chronic neck and back pain. Or really anyone my age, because of how often we stare down at our phones!
