You wake up without that familiar ache in your back. You turn your head to check traffic without wincing. You play with your kids without worrying about throwing out your neck again.
That’s what happens when your spine is properly aligned and your body can function the way it was designed to. You’re not masking symptoms with medications that wear off. You’re addressing the root cause so your body can heal itself naturally.
Most of our Hudson Heights patients notice significant improvement within the first few visits. They sleep better, move easier, and get back to the activities they love without that constant reminder that something’s wrong.
Dr. Paul Roses has been helping Hudson County residents live pain-free lives since 1981. He’s not just your neighborhood chiropractor – he’s the doctor who provided care for the heroes who responded to 9/11, treating Fire and Police department personnel who risked everything for others.
His approach is simple: your body has an incredible ability to heal itself when everything’s working properly. Dr. Roses removes the interference so your nervous system can do what it does best – keep you healthy and pain-free.
Hudson Heights families trust us because we take the time to understand what’s really causing your pain, not just where it hurts. Every treatment plan is designed specifically for your condition, your lifestyle, and your goals.
Your first visit starts with a thorough examination. We want to understand your complete health history, when your pain started, and how it’s affecting your daily life. This isn’t a rushed appointment – we take the time to listen.
Next comes a physical examination to identify exactly what’s causing your discomfort. Sometimes X-rays are needed to get a complete picture of what’s happening with your spine and joints. This helps create a treatment plan that targets the real problem, not just the symptoms.
Your treatment typically involves gentle spinal adjustments to restore proper alignment and reduce pressure on nerves. Many patients feel immediate relief, though the number of visits needed depends on your specific condition and how long you’ve been dealing with the problem. We’ll explain exactly what to expect and won’t recommend more care than you actually need.

We treat everything from sports injuries and car accident trauma to chronic headaches and everyday aches and pains. Whether you’re dealing with lower back pain from sitting at a desk all day or neck stiffness from sleeping wrong, Dr. Roses has the experience to help.
Hudson Heights residents face unique challenges – from long commutes that create postural problems to active lifestyles that sometimes lead to injuries. We specialize in corrective exercises and posture correction to address the root causes of pain, not just provide temporary relief.
Pediatric chiropractic care is also available for younger patients. Many parents don’t realize that children can benefit from gentle chiropractic adjustments, especially if they’re involved in sports or have experienced falls or injuries during play. Our approach for children is always gentle and age-appropriate.
If you’re experiencing back pain that lasts more than a few days, limits your daily activities, or keeps coming back, it’s time to get it checked. Many people wait until the pain becomes unbearable, but early intervention usually means faster recovery and less treatment overall.
You should definitely see a chiropractor if you have sharp pains shooting down your legs, numbness or tingling in your arms or legs, or if over-the-counter pain medications aren’t providing relief. These symptoms often indicate nerve involvement that responds well to chiropractic care.
Don’t ignore pain that starts after lifting something heavy, after a fall, or following a car accident – even a minor fender-bender. What seems like a small issue can develop into a bigger problem if left untreated.
Your first appointment will be longer than follow-up visits because we need to understand your complete health picture. You’ll discuss your current symptoms, when they started, what makes them better or worse, and your overall health history including any previous injuries or surgeries.
The physical examination includes checking your posture, range of motion, and specific orthopedic and neurological tests to pinpoint the source of your problem. X-rays may be recommended if we need to see the structure of your spine or rule out other conditions.
Once the examination is complete, we’ll explain what we found, what’s causing your pain, and recommend a treatment plan. Many patients receive their first adjustment during this visit and notice some immediate improvement, though everyone responds differently.
Most major insurance plans do cover chiropractic care, and we accept most insurance providers including workers’ compensation cases. However, coverage varies significantly between plans, so it’s important to verify your specific benefits before your first visit.
Our staff will help you understand your coverage and can contact your insurance company to verify benefits if needed. Many plans require a copay for each visit, while others may have a deductible that needs to be met first.
Even if you don’t have insurance or your plan doesn’t cover chiropractic care, we offer affordable cash payment options. Don’t let insurance concerns prevent you from getting the care you need – call our office to discuss payment options that work for your situation.
The number of treatments varies significantly based on several factors: how long you’ve had the problem, the severity of your condition, your age, overall health, and how well you respond to treatment. Acute injuries often respond faster than chronic conditions that have developed over months or years.
Some patients feel significantly better after just a few visits, while others with more complex conditions may need ongoing care. We’ll give you a realistic timeline based on our examination findings and explain what to expect during your recovery.
Our goal is always to get you feeling better as quickly as possible and then teach you how to maintain your improvement. This might include specific exercises, posture recommendations, or occasional maintenance visits to prevent problems from returning.
Absolutely. Many headaches actually originate from problems in the neck and upper spine. When the vertebrae in your neck are misaligned or the muscles are too tight, it can trigger tension headaches, cervicogenic headaches, and even contribute to migraines.
Chiropractic adjustments can restore proper movement to the neck joints and reduce muscle tension, which often provides significant relief from headache pain. Many patients who have suffered from chronic headaches for years find substantial improvement with regular chiropractic care.
Neck pain itself responds very well to chiropractic treatment, whether it’s from sleeping wrong, poor posture, whiplash from a car accident, or general wear and tear. The key is addressing the underlying mechanical problems rather than just masking the pain with medications.
Chiropractic care is extremely safe for patients of all ages when performed by a licensed, experienced chiropractor. Dr. Roses has over 30 years of experience treating everyone from infants to elderly patients, and he adjusts his techniques based on each patient’s age, size, and condition.
For children, the techniques we use are much gentler than those used for adults. Many childhood issues like colic, ear infections, and behavioral problems can be related to spinal misalignments that occurred during birth or from normal childhood activities like learning to walk and frequent falls.
Elderly patients often benefit greatly from chiropractic care for maintaining mobility, reducing arthritis pain, and preventing falls. Our techniques are modified to account for conditions like osteoporosis, and treatment focuses on gentle mobilization and maintaining function rather than aggressive manipulation.
