You wake up without that familiar ache in your lower back. You turn your neck freely when backing out of the driveway. You sleep through the night without tossing and turning from discomfort.
This isn’t wishful thinking. It’s what happens when your spine gets the care it actually needs instead of being numbed into temporary submission.
Real chiropractic care addresses the source of your pain, not just the symptoms. Your body has an incredible ability to heal itself when the interference is removed and proper alignment is restored.
Dr. Paul Roses has been serving the Van Leer community and surrounding Hudson County area since 1981. What started as a calling to help children led him to discover chiropractic care’s profound ability to unlock the body’s natural healing potential.
At Roses Chiropractic, you’re not just another appointment slot. We take the time to understand what’s really going on with your spine and nervous system, then create a personalized approach that fits your specific needs.
We combine proven chiropractic techniques with modern diagnostic tools, including Titron Infrared Imaging for precise assessment. Every adjustment is designed to restore proper function, not just provide temporary relief.
Your first visit starts with a thorough consultation about your health history and current concerns. Dr. Roses performs a comprehensive examination, including advanced imaging when necessary, to identify exactly what’s causing your discomfort.
Once the root cause is identified, you’ll receive gentle, precise adjustments designed specifically for your condition. These aren’t the dramatic twists and pops you might expect – modern chiropractic techniques are remarkably comfortable and safe.
Between visits, you’ll learn specific exercises designed just for your situation. These “blueprint” exercises can be done at home and significantly improve the effectiveness of your adjustments. You’ll also receive lifestyle guidance to prevent future problems and maintain your progress.

We offer advanced spinal correction using state-of-the-art techniques that weren’t available even a decade ago. These newer methods are safer, more affordable, and more effective than traditional approaches.
We specialize in treating back pain, neck pain, headaches, sports injuries, and postural problems. Pediatric chiropractic care is also available, using gentle techniques specifically designed for children’s developing bodies.
Van Leer families particularly benefit from our focus on corrective exercises and lifestyle coaching. Rather than just treating symptoms, we help you understand how daily activities affect your spinal health and teach you practical ways to maintain proper alignment between visits.
Most patients notice some improvement within the first few visits, but lasting results develop over time. Your spine didn’t get misaligned overnight, and it won’t be permanently corrected overnight either.
Think of it like wearing braces on your teeth – consistent, gentle pressure over time creates lasting change. Some patients feel immediate relief after their first adjustment, while others need several sessions before significant improvement occurs.
The timeline depends on factors like how long you’ve had the problem, your age, overall health, and how well you follow the recommended care plan. Dr. Roses will give you a realistic expectation based on your specific situation during your initial consultation.
Pediatric chiropractic care is extremely safe when performed by a qualified chiropractor. The techniques we use for children are much gentler than adult adjustments – there’s no twisting, popping, or forceful manipulation involved.
Children’s spines are more flexible and responsive than adult spines, so very light pressure is all that’s needed to make corrections. Dr. Roses has extensive experience working with pediatric patients and uses age-appropriate techniques.
Common reasons parents bring their children include postural problems from heavy backpacks or poor desk ergonomics, sports injuries, growing pains, and general wellness care. Many parents find that regular chiropractic care helps their children stay healthier and more active overall.
Your first visit begins with a detailed discussion about your health history, current symptoms, and what activities make your pain better or worse. This conversation helps Dr. Roses understand not just where you hurt, but why.
Next comes a physical examination that may include checking your posture, range of motion, muscle strength, and reflexes. If necessary, advanced imaging like Titron Infrared Imaging provides additional diagnostic information without radiation exposure.
Once Dr. Roses understands what’s causing your problem, he’ll explain his findings in plain English and discuss your treatment options. If you’re a good candidate for chiropractic care, you may receive your first adjustment during this visit. The entire appointment typically takes 45-60 minutes.
Many insurance plans do cover chiropractic treatment, though coverage varies significantly between providers and individual policies. Some plans require a referral from your primary care physician, while others allow direct access to chiropractic care.
The best approach is to contact your insurance company directly to understand your specific benefits. Ask about your chiropractic coverage, any deductibles that apply, and whether you need a referral.
Our office can help verify your benefits and work with you to maximize your insurance coverage. Even if your insurance doesn’t cover chiropractic care, many patients find the out-of-pocket cost is reasonable compared to ongoing pain medication or more invasive treatments.
Absolutely. Many headaches originate from tension and misalignment in the neck and upper spine. When these areas aren’t functioning properly, they can trigger headaches, neck stiffness, and even referred pain into the shoulders and arms.
Chiropractic adjustments restore proper movement and alignment to these joints, often providing significant relief from both headaches and neck pain. This is especially effective for tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches that stem from neck problems.
We also address contributing factors like posture, workspace ergonomics, and daily habits that may be perpetuating the problem. Many patients find that regular chiropractic care not only reduces their current pain but helps prevent future episodes.
Pain medication masks symptoms without addressing the underlying cause of your discomfort. It’s like turning off a smoke alarm without putting out the fire – the warning signal stops, but the problem continues.
Chiropractic care works differently by identifying and correcting the structural problems causing your pain. When your spine is properly aligned and moving correctly, your body can heal naturally without relying on medications.
This approach often provides longer-lasting results because it addresses the root cause rather than just managing symptoms. Many patients find they need fewer pain medications or can eliminate them entirely once their spinal problems are corrected. Plus, there are no side effects or dependency concerns with natural chiropractic treatment.
