Chiropractic

The Healing Art of Chiropractic

Chiropractic began in Davenport, Iowa in 1895, and has since become a global healing art. Derived from the Greek, its meaning is “done by hand.” The practice of manual skeletal realignment has historical roots from Ancient Egypt in 1552 BC and more recently in the 18th century with bonesetters in Great Britain.


In spite of multiple campaigns against Chiropractic and other forms of “drugless healing” in America, it has won many battles, grown, gained legitimacy, and currently serves 35 million people in the US every year. Its popularity is due to its efficacy as an extremely potent healing art.

Services For Adults and Children

Chiropractic care has helped countless adults and children with a wide array of health disorders from ear infections, asthma, colds, flu, digestive disturbances, insomnia, sinus congestion, menstrual irregularity, babies with colic, headaches, neck, arm, and back pain, just to name a few.  Manual manipulative therapy allows for our inherent healing systems to be activated via the reduction and elimination of nerve irritation.


If you are unsure of whether chiropractic care is appropriate for you or someone you care about, it is best to have an exam and evaluation by a chiropractor.


At NY Spine & Wellness in Poughkeepsie and Germantown, Dr. Castello encourages every prospective patient to receive a chiropractic examination regardless of their diagnosis or alignment. If your health problem is due to spinal subluxations, improvement typically begins within 1-8 visits.
