I dare say Susan Eisen is one of the best, if not the best chiropractor in the entire US, and I don?t make such statements lightly. After trying 5 other chiropractors in New York and San Francisco, I?m convinced that Susan is a rare gem who can accurately, quickly, and gently put bones back into healthy alignment without any harsh adjustments. She uses a special table which buffers all of the adjustments so you can hardly feel the bones moving into place. I've experienced that some chiropractors will perform suspiciously similar adjustments for everyone regardless of their individual misalignment or problem that many chiropractors can't even identify. Susan is incredibly adept and accurate at feeling every disc of your neck, spine, and other bones to determine the location and degree of misalignment. Then with movements customized for your body and specific problem, she'll then gently adjust your bones into place while you are placed upon the state-of-the-art hydraulic table used at both her NYC and NJ offices. My extreme story may illustrate just how exceptional she is. After being under Susan?s care on and off for 7 years in NY for misaligned hips, I moved to San Francisco, where I was rear-ended while driving on a 4-lane highway. The neck and back pain that ensued was unexpected, agonizing, and debilitating. I couldn?t even work at the computer, exercise, or lift grocery bags without pain. Eight months, one chiropractor, one osteopathic doctor, one orthopedic doctor, countless office visits and massages later, I still desperately needed dramatic relief and improvement. I flew back to New York, saw Susan, who figured out that my spine had been twisted in the accident (I was sitting twisted when hit) and my spine was STILL twisted --since the accident!! Over the course of two weeks, one by one she put numerous bones back into place, giving me great relief from pain and the feeling of ?ahh, now this finally feels right again? with each bone corrected. She even determined that some of my pain and misalignment was caused by a tightened psoas muscle from the accident and corrected it. Only after Susan?s treatment did I make significant progress in my recovery. She saved my life, for without her, I have no doubt my back and neck pain would have worsened into debilitating, life-long chronic pain; I?m not sure anyone else but Susan could have put my bones back into place. If my neck/back gets really painful and doesn't get better through exercise and other last resorts, I fly back to New York to see her ? she?s just that worth it. I can?t recommend her enough for anyone who has pain or tension in their back, neck, shoulders, and hips. If that applies to you, do yourself a favor, save yourself time, suffering and money and go see Susan. She will put your bones back into their proper place without injuring you. Pros: EXTREMELY accurate in putting bones back into place more

If you are looking for the best chiropractor in the tri-state area... or the world... call Dr.Susan Eisen immediately. Why, you may ask? Because she is the best. How do I know this? Because she took this sad case of 20+ years of lower back pain and like magic she gave me better posture, a better understanding of my particular issue and a postitive outlook for living pain free. I came in with what I thought was just muscular lower back pain and found that was the least of my problems! My hips were out of wack, I had one leg a little longer than the other... I had turned into Quasimoto and didn't even know it! Not only will you be amazed at how relaxing an adjustment can be- you'll actually look forward to it! She is caring, devoted and eager to help her patients experience life without chronic pain getting the best of them. Her holistic approach is a dream come true for those who have been told horror stories. What more could you ask for?! It only took one visit for me to realize that I should have started seeing her YEARS ago. Don't waste any more time. Stop what you are doing now and call. Seriously, stop what you are doing... Pros: Painless & effective treatment by a doctor who truly cares Cons: I'm not rich enough to hire Dr. Eisen as my personal chiropractor! more

I had my first chiropractic care with Dr. Susan Eisen and I was so relieved from my fears of all the stories one would hear about seeing a chiropractor! Dr. Susan was VERY attentive and easy to talk to about the pain I was having. We looked over my x-rays together and she created an individual treatment plan just for me! My back had suffered from many fall injuries, resulting in a large curvature (scoliosis), stressed muscles, my neck was inverted, and my left hip was out... and other strange things i didn't know about like a high left shoulder and high right hip. I was an absolute mess! After 3 months of weekly visits, i'm all straightened out for the most part, almost a half inch taller, better posture; and overall, I feel much better too! I can walk & breathe now without pain thanks to your treatment & friendly hospitality! Definitely the best health decision I've ever made! Thank you Dr. Susan Eisen! Pros: quiet, relaxing, friendly Cons: there's only one of Dr.Susan Eisen! more

I have two bulging disks in my neck. I tried everything for the pain, muscle relaxers, 6 months of physical therapy and two steroid shots in my neck. Nothing worked until i found Susan Eisen. She relieved the pain in 10 sessions. Its been a few months and the pain has not come back. She use a special table so the adjustments aren't as jarring. And she shows you safe and easy techniques you can do at home. Susan also take insurance which is very great. She should be voted at best chiropractor in nyc. more

This is my first experience with a chiropractor and I'm so happy it was with Dr. Eisen. I have been having problems w/my back for the past couple of years and it was getting to the point where it was effecting my hip, thigh, and upper back. Dr. Eisen started off very gently, always asking my option on how each adjustment was feeling. After 6 straight weeks of pain I'm happy to say that after 2 weeks w/Dr. Eisen I'm almost cured. The doctor and her staff are totally committed to your comfort, and always concerned with your well being. She even takes the time to chat on a personal level, that is very hard to find in doctor's now a days. I would recommend her to anyone who is experiencing pain on a daily basis like I was. I intend to continue a maintenance program because she accomdates my working schdule and get me in and out very quickly. Pros: accessible location, friendly amosphere, personal attention to details Cons: none more

Dr. Eisen has a very accomodating and professional practice. She is the third chiropractor I have seen and by far the most effective. Little waiting time, friendly staff, convenient mid-town location. more

I was about seven months pregnant when I first went to see Dr. Eisen. I had been suffering from upper back pain since my fourth month and I didn't know where else to turn. A friend of mine recommended Dr. Eisen so I decided to make an appt. After only one week I noticed a world of difference. I was actually able to get through the day for the first time in months without suffering from the severe pain I had been dealing with over the last several months. I can't thank Dr. Eisen enough for getting me through these last few months of my pregnancy. Pros: Accommodating, Knowledgeable more

I hurt my back a couple of years ago and have visited several chiropractors and doctors in hopes of relieving the pain. No chiropractor was able to alleviate my pain - I actually stopped going completely and was reluctant to go back for fear of wasting time and money without feeling results. Until I hurt my back so badly I could barely get out of bed. I heard of Dr. Eisen from a close friend of mine and she got me in immediately. Upon seeing my X-rays she located the problem and GENTLY began treating me. She has provided me with at-home exercises which have helped me maintain my progress. Dr. Eisen is extremely thorough in her treatment - she always tries new techniques based upon what I feel, not what she thinks I feel (as other chiropractors did). I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone with back pain. Pros: Genuinely Honest, Effective, Thorough more
