You’re tired of working around the pain. Tired of missing out on activities you love because your back, neck, or joints won’t cooperate.
Here’s what changes when your spine is properly aligned and your nervous system functions without interference. You sleep through the night without tossing and turning. You play with your kids without wincing. You get through your workday without that nagging ache between your shoulder blades.
Your body has an incredible ability to heal itself when given the right conditions. Chiropractic care removes the roadblocks—those misalignments and restrictions that keep you stuck in a cycle of pain and limitation.
Dr. Paul Roses isn’t just your chiropractor—he’s your neighbor. Born and raised in Bayonne, he’s been serving Hudson County families for over 30 years with one simple mission: helping people live healthier lives without unnecessary drugs or surgery.
After graduating from Life Chiropractic College in 1981, Dr. Roses returned home to build something meaningful in his community. He’s provided care for local heroes, including the firefighters and police officers who responded to 9/11. He’s helped babies with colic sleep peacefully and athletes get back in the game.
This isn’t about quick fixes or temporary relief. It’s about understanding that your body knows how to heal when the interference is removed and your nervous system can communicate clearly with every part of your body.
Your first visit starts with listening. Dr. Roses wants to understand not just where it hurts, but how it’s affecting your life. What activities are you avoiding? When does the pain get worse? What have you already tried?
Next comes a thorough examination to identify the root cause of your discomfort. This isn’t guesswork—it’s detective work. Misalignments in your spine create interference in your nervous system, and that interference shows up as pain, stiffness, and dysfunction throughout your body.
Treatment begins with gentle, precise adjustments designed to restore proper alignment and remove nerve interference. You might also receive soft tissue therapy, corrective exercises, or lifestyle recommendations tailored to your specific needs. The goal isn’t just to feel better today, but to build lasting strength and resilience so the problem doesn’t keep coming back.

Whether you’re dealing with chronic back pain, recovering from a sports injury, or seeking preventative care for your growing family, we offer comprehensive services tailored to Bergen Square residents’ unique needs.
Our pediatric chiropractic care supports healthy development from infancy through the teenage years. Growing bodies face unique stresses—from birth trauma to playground falls to sports injuries. Gentle adjustments help ensure proper spinal development and nervous system function during these critical growth periods.
Our sports injury recovery combines targeted adjustments with corrective exercises and rehabilitation strategies. Local athletes know that getting back in the game isn’t just about managing pain—it’s about addressing the underlying dysfunction that led to injury in the first place. Our pregnancy and prenatal care focuses on maintaining pelvic balance and spinal alignment as your body changes, helping reduce discomfort and preparing for an easier delivery.
Pediatric chiropractic care is extremely safe when performed by a trained professional. Children’s spines are more flexible than adults, so adjustments are much gentler—often no more pressure than you’d use to test the ripeness of a tomato.
Research shows that 14% of all chiropractic patients are under 18, with only three minor incidents reported per 5,438 pediatric visits. The techniques we use for children focus on gentle mobilization rather than the traditional “popping” adjustments you might associate with adult care.
Common childhood conditions that respond well to chiropractic care include colic, reflux, ear infections, and sleep disturbances. As children grow, chiropractic care can help with posture issues from heavy backpacks, sports injuries, and the increasingly common “tech neck” from screen time.
Most patients notice some improvement within the first few visits, though the timeline varies depending on your condition, how long you’ve had it, and your overall health. Acute injuries like a recent sports injury or minor car accident often respond faster than chronic conditions you’ve been dealing with for months or years.
Your body’s healing process happens in stages. Initial relief might come within days as inflammation decreases and nerve pressure is reduced. Corrective healing—where your body starts to rebuild and strengthen—typically takes several weeks to months. Maintenance care focuses on preventing future problems and maintaining optimal function.
The key is consistency. Your spine didn’t get misaligned overnight, and it won’t stay aligned after just one adjustment. Think of it like going to the gym—you wouldn’t expect to get in shape after one workout, but with regular sessions, you build strength and see lasting results.
While both professions focus on musculoskeletal health, they approach healing from different angles. Chiropractors primarily focus on spinal alignment and nervous system function, using hands-on adjustments to remove interference and restore proper joint movement.
Physical therapy typically emphasizes exercise, stretching, and rehabilitation to strengthen muscles and improve function. Many conditions benefit from a combination of both approaches—chiropractic care to restore proper alignment and remove nerve interference, followed by physical therapy to strengthen and stabilize the area.
At Roses Chiropractic, our treatment plans often include elements of both. You might receive adjustments to restore proper spinal alignment, combined with specific exercises and stretches to strengthen supporting muscles and prevent future problems. The goal is comprehensive care that addresses both the immediate problem and the underlying causes.
Most major insurance plans include chiropractic coverage, though benefits vary significantly between providers and individual plans. Coverage typically includes a certain number of visits per year, with varying copayment amounts depending on your specific plan.
We recommend calling your insurance company before your first visit to understand your chiropractic benefits. Ask about your annual visit limit, copayment amount, and whether you need a referral from your primary care physician. Some plans require you to stay within their network of approved providers.
Our office staff can help verify your benefits and work with your insurance company to maximize your coverage. We also offer flexible payment options for patients without insurance or those who prefer to pay out-of-pocket. The goal is to make quality chiropractic care accessible and affordable for Bergen Square families.
Many headaches originate from tension and misalignments in the neck and upper spine. When the vertebrae in your cervical spine are out of proper alignment, they can irritate nerves and create muscle tension that radiates up into your head, causing what we call cervicogenic headaches.
Chiropractic adjustments can be highly effective for tension headaches, cervicogenic headaches, and even some types of migraines. By restoring proper alignment to the neck and upper spine, we can reduce nerve irritation and muscle tension that contribute to headache pain.
Treatment typically involves gentle adjustments to the cervical spine, along with soft tissue therapy to address muscle tension in the neck and shoulders. We also look at lifestyle factors—posture at work, sleep position, stress levels—that might be contributing to your headaches. Many patients experience significant reduction in both headache frequency and intensity with regular chiropractic care.
Your first visit is all about understanding your unique situation and developing a treatment plan that makes sense for your lifestyle and goals. We’ll start with a detailed discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and how your condition is affecting your daily life.
The physical examination includes checking your posture, range of motion, and performing specific orthopedic and neurological tests to identify the source of your problem. We might also take X-rays if necessary to get a clear picture of your spinal alignment and rule out any underlying conditions.
Once we understand what’s going on, Dr. Roses will explain his findings in plain English—no confusing medical jargon. You’ll learn exactly what’s causing your symptoms and receive a clear treatment plan with realistic expectations for recovery. If chiropractic care isn’t the right approach for your condition, we’ll refer you to the appropriate healthcare provider. The goal is always to get you the right care, whether that’s with us or someone else.
