He believes that working together with patients to achieve their goals is one of the most fulfilling experiences. At Vassar Chiropractic and Rehabilitation, we use an adjusting style commonly referred to as diversified. Palpation of the spine is performed to find any "restricted" joints. Subsequent visits may include diversified or motion palpation, with Dr. Vassar feeling the spinal joints move as you turn and bend.
With the malposition of one or more spinal bones found, a manual thrust is applied. The direction, speed, depth and angle that are used is the result of training, practice and a thorough understanding of the musculoskeletal system. During the thrust there may be a popping noise. This is attributed to gases being released as the joint opens.

I wish I had known then what I know now - the body can heal itself when given the correct input. That would have helped me tremendously as I suffered through low back pain in high school, yet continued to ignore my poor diet and body mechanics. I finally saw a chiropractor see if they could fix the issues with my low back pain.

I'm experienced with Chiropractic having had adjustments for 35 years in 3 different states. I was in an accident 40 yrs ago & have a whiplash injury resulting in arthritis in my neck. I also worked for 2 Chiropractors in Colorado. Dr. Vassar is an experienced professional who understands how muscles & joints contribute to the body's health. He is gentle & his adjustments including muscle work are very effective in relieving pain & immobility. He has a warm, welcoming personality. 5 stars!

I have been seeing Justin at Vassar Chiropractic for several years now and my experiences have been just great. I am a runner, and when I have a hip out of alignment or a hamstring issue (or who all know what!) Justin is quick to say, "ok let's see what we can do to get you running again!" He is quick to get back to me when I need to schedule an appointment and never tries to "sell" more services than I need. Fundamentally, Justin is a great care provider and a great guy.

I was nervous to go to a chiropractor but Justin Vassar is friendly, relaxed, and professional. He has a teacher's heart, so I always feel informed. He explains what he's doing and why it's needed. I recently was in a car accident and he was able to see me the next morning. He got me back to health within 2 appointments. It was amazing and I would highly recommend Vassar Chiropractic!

As someone who has seen chiropractors for 20 years (and worked for one for 6 years), I couldn’t be more impressed with Dr. Vassar. He’s very knowledgeable about what he’s doing, he takes the time to explain things, and the adjustments make me feel great. He’s flexible with schedules and the fees are extremely reasonable. He shows a great deal of respect for his patients and allows them to decide on what type of care works for them. My family will continue under his care long term!!!

I have been seeing Dr. Vassar for about a year now. His approach to treating the muscles as well as the alignment of the spine has been wonderful. He listens to me and spends time teaching me about the treatment he is giving and how the muscles, spine, and nerves interact. I highly recommend his services!

I wouldn't have driven my car around for 30 years with a bad alignment, I can't believe it took me so long to visit this place...
Dr. Vassar and his office are excellent! The office is clean, modern, and very calming. Dr. Vassar took the time to explain everything in detail so I walked away not only having more flexion, but understanding why and what I can do to maintain that range of motion.
Even if you don't experience pain or stiffness, whether you're an athlete or computer jockey, anyone who has never been to a chiro before, needs to check this place out. I learned a
