Dear Friends,
I've been counting the daffodils coming up in my front yard and clinging to the thought that we are supposed to have 4 seasons and not 2! The dregs of Winter are still hanging on and it is stressing so many of you! You are coming in with neck pain, headaches, shoulder issues from shoveling these last few snows and low back pain. Remember that we are here to help you no matter what the issue!
With the onset of Spring you may need new orthotics for your running or gym shoes. Changing the bedding for Spring means time for new cervical sleeping pillows. Do you need some Young Living Essential oils for relaxation? E.R. 911 spray can help dispel that overwhelmed feeling. Maybe you want to go over your nutritional needs or have a stress assessment....we can do all of these things for you! It's true that my goal as your Family Chiropractor and personal Wellness advisor is to help you achieve your Optimum level of Health...you only have to ask!
Office Hours are Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday 9 -1 and 3 -6 and Saturdays 9 - 1. Call 201-525-0707 to make an appointment with Joan, Jolanta or Debi at a convenient time.
All the best and we'll see you soon!

Time to show yourself a little love!
This month we do our best to celebrate lots of things and I believe that it is our way of making it through the dark months of winter. Groundhog day, Super Bowl, Valentine's day, Presidents' Day, Mardi Gras...everything we do is designed to get us out of the winter doldrums and force us up from the cozy couch! I like to go with the idea that February is really about LOVE! We love a party, we love our teams, we love our country, we love our "sweeties" and friends!
How about taking a little time to love YOURSELF this month?
- Love yourself with an adjustment to boost your immune system (several studies have shown that regular adjustments raise the healthy immune markers in the blood);
- Love yourself with a new set of orthotics to balance that low back and relieve stressed out feet (studies show a 40% improvement in low back pain with custom made Foot Levelers orthotics);
- Love yourself with a Free Immune System check up here in our office on February 27, 2018! We are offering our patients and their family and friends the opportunity to receive a free 4 part immune system checkup with nutritionist Jane McNeil. It takes 1/2 hour and is a $75 value. Space is limited, so call the office 201-525-0707 to reserve your time between 11 am and 7 pm.
All the best and see you soon!

Thanks for a Happy Anniversary!
November 30, 2017
Dear Friends,
I'd like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to every patient who has crossed our threshold since we first opened our doors in Garfield on November 30, 1979.
Dr. Ray Nicastro and I named our business Garfield Family Chiropractic Center and it really was a family operation! Ray and I had been married only a few months before. My dad and his dad helped us put up sheetrock in the adjusting rooms; my mom had helped me to get a business plan and financing through the SBA; a few years later, our son Christopher was born and he came to work with us for nearly a year! After Ray's untimely death, I took over his part of the practice and found great support from all the patients. My Aunt Cathy came in to run the office at that time and stayed with me for about 7 years! Chris and I were so blessed to form a new family with my husband of 24 years John, and his beautiful daughter Valerie. A year after that, I moved the office to Hackensack to be closer to our home. In the following years, Valerie came to work as a massage therapist for some time and my niece Bernadette worked the Saturday hours at the front desk for years, as well! I am grateful that many of my staff members over the years have come to be like family to me and to the patients, too! Some of those earlier patients are now bringing me their grandchildren to be adjusted...I've even had several families with 4 generations under care at one time! It has always been about Family Chiropractic to me!
Thank you for the confidence you have shown in me...for sending me your loved ones, your friends and acquaintances to care for! Thank you for the opportunity to serve humankind ( and the occasional canine or feline) in the best way I know how! My fervent wish is to continue to serve my current and future patients with compassion, skill and love for years to come!
Thanks for everything! See you soon!

Stress? Stress? Stress? Avoiding Stress!
October 27, 2017
Dear Friends,
Professional or advocacy organizations and insurance companies love to name a "health month" for every month of the year. November alone has many designations including: 'American Diabetes' month; 'Cervical Health Awareness' month; 'Lung Cancer Awareness' month; 'Home Care and Hospice' month; 'National Epilepsy' month; 'Pancreatic Cancer Awareness' month; and the "Great American Smokeout' on Thursday November 16!
It can really stress you out thinking about so many important issues just this month alone! And then it's getting darker and colder; the kids are in 3 sports; the boss is on your case; the computer is on the fritz; the cat shredded the couch; and the holidays are right around the corner....AARRGH! The last quarter of the year can be stressfull for a lot of reasons, so I am designating November the 'Avoiding Holiday Stress and Anxiety' month in our office!
Jane McNeil, CN, CH will be presenting a free seminar at our office designed to help "Avoid and Counteract Stresses in the Holiday Season!" Come in on Tuesday, November 14, 2017 from 6:30 to 7:30 ...it's interactive, informative and very helpful! Light refreshments will be provided. The seminar is free but you must register. Call the office or tell us when you come in to register.
Getting a check up adjustment is the perfect way to enjoy the Fall wonders and lower your stress levels, too! We are ready to help you achieve your best possible health this Fall...call us at 201-525-0707 and Joan, Jolanta, and Debi will gladly make a convenient appointment. Office Hours are Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday 9 -1 and 3 -6 and Saturdays 9 - 1.
All the best and we'll see you soon!
