Chiropractic Adjustment Videos
What is Chiropractic Care?
The term ”chiropractic” combines the Greek words ”cheri” (hand) and ”praktiki” (practice) to describe a treatment done by hand. Hands-on therapy – especially adjustment of the spine – is central to chiropractic care.
Chiropractic care is based on the belief that the relationship between the body’s structure (primarily the spine) and its function (as coordinated by the nervous system) affects our health. Biomechanical and structural derangement of the spine can affect the nervous system. For many conditions, chiropractic treatment can restore the spine’s structural integrity, reduce pressure on the sensitive neurological tissue, and consequently improve the health of the individual.
How does Chiropractic Care work?
Chiropractic care treats the spine and structural gateway between the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and all organs, muscles, bones, and skin. These structures are all innervated by nerves extending from the spinal cord through the spinal column joints. Dr. Rashad Trabulsi and Dr. Alex Kazhdan ranked as two of the best chiropractors in New York City with a combined experience of over 20 years. Their philosophy is to heal patients by maintaining a drug-free, non-surgical approach to treating injuries and nerve or joint-related illnesses.
Spinal adjustment is a specific procedure used to help correct the body’s nerve interference. This must be applied with the correct amount of pressure in the proper direction. Usually, this is done with the doctor’s hands but can also involve additional instruments. Often symptoms are relieved immediately, and many patients report a feeling of peace and relaxation. It often leads to increased energy and improved sleep.
What is the Common Use of Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic services used most often to treat neuromusculoskeletal complaints, including but not limited to Lower Back Pain, Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Knee Pain, Sciatica Pain, Pinched Nerve, Herniated Disc, Elbow Pain, Joint Pain, Bulging Disc or headaches. Chiropractic adjustments improve both the range and quality of motion in the joints. Many professional athletes are using chiropractic care for rehabilitation and injury prevention.
You can also visit our chiropractor for a general wellness checkup and treatments like:
- chiropractic spinal alignment
- traction decompression
- electrical stimulation with heat
- stretching and Kinesio tape
- breech baby correction
- interferential electrical stimulation
- chiropractic prenatal care
Is Chiropractic Treatment Dangerous?
Chiropractic Care is one of the safest drug-free, non-invasive therapies available for treating neuromusculoskeletal complaints. Although chiropractic therapy has an excellent safety record, no health treatment is completely free of potential adverse effects. The risks associated with chiropractic, however, are minimal. Many patients feel immediate relief following chiropractic treatment, but some may experience mild soreness, stiffness, or aching, just as they do after some exercise forms. Current research shows that minor discomfort or pain following spinal manipulation typically fades within 24 hours. According to recent studies and research, you have a higher chance of being hurt by taking an aspirin than you do from getting a chiropractic adjustment.

Pichardo –
Dr. T is amazing and his knowledge of the human body is truly impressive. I came to him with a lower back injury (deadlifting) I suffered 2 years ago that has been causing me pain and discomfort when performing actions as simple as bending over, sitting, and sleeping. After a through examination, Dr. T knew exactly what was going on in my body and one adjustment later, instant relief! He also addressed the issues I was having with my wrists, knees, groin and ankle; I felt so much better. It’s crazy how the pain I’ve had for years can be subsided within seconds. Like most people I was skeptical at first but after experiencing for myself, I can say the reviews are real, the technique is real, and most importantly the results are real. For anyone needing to see a chiropractor, I highly recommend Dr. T.
Bogdanovich –

So glad I found this place!

Dr. T always tends to all my problems let it be my back or knees. He knows his way really well around sports injuries as he’s an athlete himself and knows the in and outs of how the body functions during game time. I would highly recommend him to anyone young or old with any problems.

My husband told me to just start accepting my knee pain and I was convinced there was nothing anyone could do. My friend told me about MWG, and I called them. I was not a believer unit I received treatment there. Their knee pain treatment works very well, and I am pain free today.
Laura Lyman –

Ahzan –
The best chiropractor ever. I was dealing with a back pain for more than 6 years. After 3 months and few visits in 2010, the pain was gone ever since. I did not believe in magic of chiropractor before, thanks to Dr. Trabulsi, I do now.
sawaryn –
I had a pretty bad fall a few years ago herniating a few discs in my lower back (L4-L5). The pain was excruciating and life changing. I spent hours and hours traveling around Manhattan going to and from doctors appointments, physical therapy sessions and pain management clinics. I struggled with everything from sleeping to walking. I was losing hope and beginning to accept my “new normal” condition until my mother happened to meet Rashad and set me up an appointment. I have been working with him now for two months and am entirely pain free!!! Im off the medicine and done with having 3-4 sleepless nights a week and recently started a hip hop dance class. THANK YOU Dr. Trabulsi

Dr. Trabulsi is down to earth and takes the time to explain your injury to you in way in which you can understand the cause of the injury and how to heal it. Additionally, Dr. Trabulsi showed me different exercises to do at home to improve my condition and even helped me purchase a neck pump to also use at home. I am happy to say that after working with Dr. Trabulsi both my neck and back injury fully healed and I feel great.

Alexis Vargas –
I had been having sever headaches, neck pain, tightness in my lower back, and I wasn’t able to workout or even brush my teeth without horrible pain. I was at my wits end. I was told it could be cardiovascular and that there would be a lot to do for relief if that was the case. Before heading down that route my family urged me to try a chiropractor. I decided to try it and I can confidently say, just one short month of visits with Joint Chiropractic – I am cured! I not only get adjusted here but I have no pain, I am advised weekly on stretches or vitamins that will help me and everything is affordable. I am so glad I came in and I don’t think I’ll ever leave!
LKM –
I have suffered from lower back tightness / back spasms that would occur roughly every three months, often triggered by doing a simple chore. I have also had serious hip-flexor tightness that prevented me from doing a number of exercises and left me at times with a tingling sensation that would run up and down my leg and into my lower back. I first visited Dr. Trabulsi about six weeks ago, and in those six weeks I am feeling remarkably better and am back in the gym almost every day, with very few limitations on my movement. Just as importantly, my posture feels much more balanced. I would highly recommend a visit to Dr. Trabulss to anyone suffering from back or leg pain.
Riekena –
I was never a believer in chiropractors until I went to see Dr. T. I had a nagging injury for months and my personal trainer recommended him for many months before I made an appointment. I wish I hadn’t been so stubborn for so long! After 4 visits I am good as new! I never understood his practice (and still don’t entirely) but I will not hesitate to go back to him if I have any other injuries. On top of fixing me he made me feel very comfortable even knowing I was skeptical. My only mistake was I didn’t go sooner!
Nguyen –
Very helpful even after one session. He finds your issue, explains the source and effectively provides you with the right steps and methods to help you fast
Fair DC –
Dr.Trabulsi truly knows his stuff! When I saw him I had terrible upper neck and shoulder pain, and walked out a happy camper! As a fellow chiropractor I was impressed with the time that he spent with me before adjusting me! I wish more doctors were like him! Thank you so much for saving me!

Tiedeman –
Amazing staff with great knowledge of how to treat my specific low back issues. Every visit is quick and painless (and absolutely relaxing). Dr. Trabulsi was super helpful in explaining the details of my issues, and solving any pain problems or tension that might’ve popped up during the week. Feels like going to an orthopedist, physical therapist, and chiropractor all in one! Highly recommend.
