Hear from Our Customers
You’re tired of managing pain instead of eliminating it. You want to get back to the activities you love without constantly worrying about your back, neck, or joints flaring up again.
That’s exactly what happens when you address the root cause of your pain instead of just masking symptoms. Our patients regularly tell us they wish they’d found us sooner—before spending months or years trying everything else.
When your spine is properly aligned and your body is functioning the way it should, you sleep better, move easier, and have the energy to tackle your day. No more planning your life around pain levels or wondering if tomorrow will be a “good day” or “bad day.”
Dr. Toniann Roses and Dr. Dean Sottile understand what it’s like living in Weehawken. We know you’re probably commuting to Manhattan, dealing with stress, and trying to balance work with family time.
We’ve been helping your neighbors find real solutions for years—not quick fixes that wear off by next week. When you’re dealing with the physical demands of city life, long commutes, and desk jobs, your body needs more than temporary relief.
Our practice focuses on getting you back to your normal life as quickly as possible. We’re not interested in keeping you coming back indefinitely. We want you moving freely, sleeping well, and feeling confident in your body again.
Your first visit starts with us actually listening to what’s been going on. We’ll ask about your pain, your daily routine, and what you’ve already tried. No rushing through a checklist—we need to understand your specific situation.
Next comes a thorough examination. We’ll check your spine alignment, test your range of motion, and identify exactly where the problem is coming from. Sometimes the source of your pain isn’t where you feel it most.
Then we explain what we found in plain English. You’ll know exactly what’s causing your pain and how we’re going to fix it. Treatment typically involves gentle adjustments to restore proper alignment, along with exercises and lifestyle modifications to keep you feeling good long-term.
Most patients start feeling better within the first few visits, but everyone heals differently. We’ll track your progress closely and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

Our chiropractic services include spinal adjustments, corrective exercises, posture correction, and sports injury recovery. We also provide specialized pediatric chiropractic care and spinal traction therapy when appropriate.
Living in Weehawken means dealing with unique physical stresses. Long commutes create neck and shoulder tension. Sitting at desks all day wreaks havoc on your lower back. Weekend warriors often push too hard after being sedentary all week.
We see these patterns constantly. The good news is that with the right approach, these problems are very treatable. Our patients include everyone from busy professionals to active families to seniors who want to stay mobile and independent.
Each treatment plan is designed around your specific needs, schedule, and goals. We’re not going to give you a one-size-fits-all approach or expect you to completely overhaul your lifestyle.
Most patients notice some improvement within the first 2-3 visits, but this varies based on your specific condition and how long you’ve been dealing with pain. Acute injuries often respond faster than chronic conditions that have been developing for months or years.
For example, if you tweaked your back over the weekend, you might feel significantly better after just one or two adjustments. But if you’ve been dealing with chronic neck pain from years of desk work, it typically takes several weeks of consistent treatment to see lasting improvement.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your first visit based on what we find during your examination. The key is consistency—patients who follow through with their treatment plan almost always get better results faster than those who skip appointments or only come when the pain is really bad.
Chiropractic care is extremely safe when performed by a licensed professional. Serious complications are very rare, and the treatment is generally much safer than long-term medication use or surgery.
Most adjustments are completely painless. You might hear some popping or cracking sounds, which is just gas being released from the joints—similar to cracking your knuckles. Some patients actually find this satisfying and feel immediate relief.
You might experience some mild soreness after your first few treatments, similar to what you’d feel after starting a new exercise routine. This typically lasts 24-48 hours and indicates that your body is responding to the treatment. We’ll always explain what to expect and make sure you’re comfortable throughout the process.
We accept most major insurance plans and will verify your coverage before your first visit. Many insurance plans cover chiropractic care, though your specific benefits depend on your individual policy.
For patients without insurance coverage, we offer competitive cash rates and payment plans to make treatment affordable. We believe cost shouldn’t be a barrier to getting the care you need, especially when you consider the long-term costs of ongoing pain medication or more invasive procedures.
We’re always upfront about costs before starting treatment. You’ll never be surprised by unexpected charges, and we’ll work with you to find a payment option that fits your budget. Many patients find that investing in chiropractic care actually saves them money in the long run by avoiding more expensive treatments down the road.
While back and neck pain are the most common reasons people visit us, we treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. This includes headaches, sports injuries, joint pain, sciatica, posture-related problems, and work-related repetitive strain injuries.
We also provide pediatric chiropractic care for children dealing with posture issues, sports injuries, or developmental concerns. Many parents are surprised to learn how much chiropractic care can help with things like chronic ear infections, sleep issues, and behavioral problems in kids.
For active individuals, we specialize in sports injury recovery and prevention. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or training for a marathon, we can help you recover from injuries faster and develop strategies to prevent future problems. Our goal is to keep you doing the activities you love without constantly worrying about getting hurt.
We focus on getting you better as quickly as possible, not on creating long-term dependency. While some practices want to see you multiple times per week indefinitely, our goal is to solve your problem and teach you how to maintain the results on your own.
We also take time to educate you about what’s causing your pain and how to prevent it from coming back. This includes specific exercises, posture corrections, and lifestyle modifications that fit into your real life—not ideal scenarios that nobody can actually maintain.
Our approach is collaborative. We work with your other healthcare providers when appropriate and aren’t afraid to refer you elsewhere if we think another type of treatment would be more effective. Your results matter more to us than keeping you as a patient forever.
Your first visit typically takes 45-60 minutes and includes a thorough consultation, examination, and usually your first treatment. We’ll start by discussing your health history, current symptoms, and what you hope to achieve with treatment.
The examination includes checking your posture, spine alignment, range of motion, and muscle tension. We might also do some simple neurological tests to make sure there aren’t any underlying issues that need immediate medical attention.
If appropriate, we’ll provide your first adjustment during this visit. Many patients feel some relief right away, though it’s normal if you don’t notice dramatic changes immediately. We’ll explain exactly what we found, outline your treatment plan, and give you specific instructions for the next few days. You’ll leave knowing exactly what to expect and feeling confident about your path to recovery.
