I've been seeing Dr. Berkowitz for many years and really rely on her to help me stay healthy and pain free which is important in that I own my own business and need to do a lot of lifting.
But I'm also the mother of two young children, both of whom have benefited greatly from her abilities. Several years ago, my older son suffered from intermittent leg aches. The podiatrist told me that he had flat feet and prescribed orthotics, which helped, but certainly didn't solve the problem. After a few sessions with Dr. Berkowitz, my son's leg aches went away completely, and he only occassionally has any remaining problems. He no longer uses the orthotics.
About a year ago, after a series of head colds, my younger son was experiencing hearing loss due to fluid in his ear canal. He saw specialists and they had nothing to suggest except that the problem should improve during the summer, when cold season was over. His hearing did improve during the summer, but then, in the fall, after his first head cold, his hearing loss reoccurred. Dr. Berkowitz suggested I bring him to her for a quick session (she squeezed him in between patients!) and his hearing was normal the next day! He's had no problems for the rest of this winter, despite several head colds.
I take my kids to Dr. Berkowitz every once in a while for adjustments and they have no problems with it. The technique is so gentle. They actually look forward to visits because they love playing with toys she has available in a little basket in the waiting room.
Needless to say, I highly recommend her as a chiropractor and all-around natural health practitioner.
Pros: Great for kids
