Description

Specialties

Natural health care. This doesn’t mean we don’t believe in medication and or surgery, we use a natural approach first and if your case won’t respond, we will refer you to someone that can help you. Many medications taken for one condition can cause another problem. For example, Lipitor which is a commonly used medication to lower cholesterol has been linked to sided effects of severe musculoskeletal pain. By coordinating care with our patients MD, we were able to get rid of our patients pain by having their MD eliminate or change their medication.

History

Established in 1988.

I started my practice in Darien, CT in 1988. At that time there was only one other chiropractor in town, Dr. Jim Sullivan. He was in semi retirement and I knew Darien would be in need of another chiropractor. At that time I could see a paradigm shift in healthcare where people would be looking for natural alternatives.

Chiropractic evolved in 1895, however, when I started my practice, chiropractic was still very new to the community. In order to «change this» I educated the community with complimentary seminars to civic groups, nursing facilities, schools and businesses. This allowed individuals to become familiarized with what chiropractic is and how it might help them.
