I highly recommend Dr. AJ. I am a personal trainer with various wear and tear issues that have come up through the years. Dr. AJ has helped me tremendously through everything. When new clients come to me with joint issues I suggest they start with Dr. AJ as well. He uses state-of-the-art techniques. He is totally honest and and tells you how much improvement you should expect from his treatment. From my experience and my clients, you see him twice a week, then he weans you down to once a week, then once a month, then a tune-up when needed.
Plain and simple, if you want great results, go to Dr

Dr. AJ cares about his patients. Every time I leave his office I feel brand new. I recommend him to friends and family all the time. If you’re having neck or back pain, he is the best! Go to him!

I have been helped tremendously with the chiropractic and physical therapy from both Dr. AJ and Dr. Sabrina. My lower back pain has significantly decreased and is now manageable. Everyone in the office is extremely welcoming and friendly. They also go out of their way to book appointments that are the most convenient for each patient. Love this place and everyone in the office!

After a single visit Dr. Gagliardi had me bicycling and swimming again without a bit of pain. His initial estimate was that my back problem would require 8 visits to correct. In fact he did it in 3 so you know he will not advise unnecessary appointments. I highly recommend him.
In subsequent visits the doctor has greatly reduced the constant pain in my wrists and neck while I continue to bicycle and swim more and more. Still highly recommended.

Dr. AJ is a master at diagnosing just about any physical ailment. His treatment is conservative, effective, and yet gentle. He goes beyond diagnosing and treating by formulating strategies to help prevent injuries from returning. The office is impeccably clean and all the staff are delightful.
My occupation is very physically demanding and I would not be able to work pain-free if not for Dr. AJ! I highly recommend him!

I highly recommend! After weeks of severe constant back/sciatic pain, I started PT with Dr. Sabrina. The pain started to decrease after the first visit. I am so happy and thankful to say that I am feeling a little better with each visit. I was there today! Dr. Sabrina is awesome!

Drs. Sabrina & AJ always take such good care of my family and me. I have recommended the practice to numerous other folks over the six years I’ve been a patient. Folks in the office have been super kind and helpful as well.
