You know that moment when you first stand up in the morning and your back doesn’t scream at you? When you can turn your neck without wincing? When you actually sleep through the night instead of tossing and turning because of muscle tension?
That’s what real chiropractic care delivers. Not just temporary relief that wears off in a few hours, but actual healing that lets you get back to living your life.
Your body has an incredible ability to heal itself when the interference is removed. When your spine is properly aligned, your nervous system can do what it’s designed to do – coordinate every function in your body for optimal health and pain-free movement.
Dr. Paul Roses has been serving the Hudson County area since 1981, helping thousands of patients find relief from chronic pain without drugs or surgery. After graduating from Life Chiropractic College, he’s dedicated his career to one simple mission: removing the nerve interference that keeps your body from healing itself.
What sets us apart isn’t just the advanced techniques or state-of-the-art equipment. It’s the understanding that every patient is unique, with their own specific needs and healing timeline.
We serve families throughout Our Lady of Mercy and surrounding communities, combining decades of experience with the latest chiropractic advances to deliver results that last. When you’re ready to address the root cause of your pain instead of just masking symptoms, you’ve found the right place.
Your first visit starts with understanding exactly what’s causing your pain. Dr. Roses conducts a thorough assessment, including advanced imaging when needed, to pinpoint the source of your discomfort. No guesswork, no generic treatments.
Next comes your personalized treatment plan. Using precise spinal adjustments and state-of-the-art chiropractic techniques, we focus on removing nerve interference and restoring proper alignment. Many patients experience relief after their very first adjustment.
But here’s what makes the difference: you’ll also receive corrective exercises designed specifically for your condition. These “blueprint” exercises strengthen and correct your unique problems, helping you maintain the improvements between visits. Our goal isn’t just to help you feel better temporarily – it’s to heal properly and prevent future problems.

Your chiropractic care includes advanced spinal correction using techniques that are safer and more effective than ever before. We utilize Titron Infrared Imaging for baseline assessments – a painless process that takes just seconds but provides crucial information about your condition.
For Our Lady of Mercy residents dealing with the stresses of daily life, work demands, and the physical toll of modern living, our comprehensive approach addresses not just your immediate pain but the underlying patterns that caused it. Whether you’re struggling with lower back pain from long hours at a desk, neck stiffness from poor posture, or muscle tension from stress, we tailor your treatment plan to your specific needs.
You’ll also receive lifestyle coaching to help you avoid activities that aggravate your condition. This isn’t about restricting your life – it’s about making small adjustments that support your healing and prevent re-injury. The combination of in-office treatment and at-home care creates lasting results that keep you pain-free long-term.
Many patients experience significant relief after their first adjustment, though everyone heals at their own pace. The timeline depends on several factors: how long you’ve had the problem, the severity of your condition, your overall health, and how well you follow the treatment plan.
For acute issues like recent neck stiffness or a new back injury, you might feel better within a few visits. Chronic conditions that have developed over months or years typically require more time to fully resolve. Dr. Roses will give you a realistic timeline during your initial consultation based on your specific situation.
What’s important to understand is that real healing takes time. Your body needs to retrain muscle memory and establish new, healthier patterns. Our goal isn’t just quick relief – it’s lasting improvement that prevents the problem from returning.
Chiropractic care is one of the safest forms of healthcare available. The techniques we use are gentle, precise, and completely non-invasive. Dr. Roses uses advanced adjustment methods that are more comfortable than traditional approaches, with options that don’t require any twisting or turning of your neck or spine.
Most patients find adjustments surprisingly comfortable – many describe feeling immediate relief and relaxation. You might hear a small “popping” sound during some adjustments, which is simply gas being released from the joint, similar to cracking your knuckles. This is completely normal and harmless.
We also offer instrument-assisted techniques for patients who prefer adjustments without any audible sounds. Your comfort and safety are always our top priorities, and Dr. Roses will explain exactly what he’s doing throughout your treatment.
No referral is needed to begin chiropractic care. You can schedule your appointment directly with us. However, it’s worth checking with your insurance provider to understand your coverage, as some plans may have specific requirements.
Many medical doctors actually recommend chiropractic care as a first-line treatment for back and neck pain before considering more invasive options. The drug-free, non-surgical approach of chiropractic care makes it an excellent starting point for addressing musculoskeletal problems.
If you’re currently seeing other healthcare providers for your condition, Dr. Roses can coordinate care and communicate with your medical team when appropriate. Our goal is always to provide you with the most effective treatment while ensuring all your healthcare providers are working together for your benefit.
While back pain is the most common reason people seek chiropractic care, the benefits extend far beyond spinal issues. Because your nervous system controls every function in your body, removing interference through proper spinal alignment can help with headaches, neck stiffness, muscle tension, sciatica, and even some non-musculoskeletal conditions.
Many patients are surprised to find improvement in areas they didn’t expect. Some report better sleep, reduced stress levels, improved posture, and increased energy. We’ve seen success with conditions like chronic headaches, certain types of dizziness, and even some digestive issues when they’re related to nerve interference.
Dr. Roses focuses on your body’s innate ability to heal itself. When your spine is properly aligned and your nervous system can function without interference, your body often resolves problems you didn’t even realize were connected to spinal health. Every case is individual, and the initial consultation will help determine how chiropractic care might benefit your specific situation.
Treatment frequency varies significantly based on your condition, how long you’ve had the problem, and your healing goals. Acute injuries might require more frequent visits initially – perhaps 2-3 times per week for the first few weeks – then gradually reduce as you improve.
Chronic conditions that have developed over time typically need consistent care to retrain your body’s patterns and achieve lasting results. Dr. Roses will create a specific treatment schedule based on your examination findings and discuss realistic expectations for your recovery timeline.
As you improve, visits become less frequent, transitioning from corrective care to maintenance care. Many patients choose to continue with periodic check-ups to maintain their health and prevent future problems, similar to regular dental cleanings. Our ultimate goal is to get you feeling better and keep you that way with the least amount of ongoing treatment necessary.
Most insurance plans include chiropractic coverage, though the specifics vary by provider and plan. Coverage typically includes a certain number of visits per year, and you may have a copay or deductible to meet. It’s always best to contact your insurance company directly to understand your specific benefits.
Our office staff can help verify your insurance coverage and explain what your plan includes. We’ll work with you to maximize your benefits and discuss payment options if you have coverage limitations.
Even if you don’t have insurance coverage, many patients find chiropractic care to be cost-effective compared to ongoing medical treatments, prescription medications, or potential surgery. The investment in natural, effective treatment often saves money in the long run by addressing the root cause of your problem rather than just managing symptoms. Payment plans and flexible options are available to make care accessible when you need it.
