View ArticleBacksmart Wellness Center is a complete wellness center offering a range of services to meet all your healthy living needs. Our Edison chiropractor, Dr. Michael Lagana, who has been featured on News 12 NJ, founded our center with a vision. His vision was to create a welcoming and positive place where patients could explore a wide scope of services to improve their health in a single location. He has certainly succeeded. For nearly two decades, patients have reaped the numerous benefits of combining our therapies and services to improve and sustain their optimum health. We recently moved to a new facility at 619 Amboy Avenue that features the latest technology to even better serve your needs.
Our wellness and rehabilitation facility is staffed by an experienced team of health care professionals who work closely with each patient's primary care physician and other professionals to provide an integrative plan of care personalized to each patient's needs. Our exceptional staff of professionals makes it possible for us to administer chiropractic care, physical therapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, weight loss counseling and Chinese herbal medicine. We also provide the services of a registered dietitian for nutritional counseling and offer certified hypnotherapy for weight management and smoking cessation.
One of the main reasons people seek out our wellness center is for pain management and relief. Our chiropractor begins each new session with a thorough examination and evaluation to pinpoint the cause of agony. Rather than mask the pain with drugs, we instead aim to abolish the pain by correcting its cause. When the cause stems from a misalignment of the spine, pinched nerve, subluxation, or herniated disc, we can correct the issue with the proper chiropractic technique, alleviating neck and back pain as well as related symptoms, such as headaches or migraines.
When pain stems from causes other than a spinal issue, such as an injury, we can provide relief through other modalities. Massage therapy, acupuncture, Class IV Cold Laser Therapy, and Cervical and Lumbar Decompression Therapy have been effective for alleviating back and neck pain as well as issues in other areas. Massage therapy can reduce stress, increase blood flow, and assist healing, while acupuncture unblocks the body's vital energy flow. We also offer physical therapy programs to assist with full and rapid injury recovery.
Our Edison chiropractic and wellness center can further benefit your health by ensuring your body receives the nutrients it needs and eliminates the toxins it does not. Our registered dietician can design a personalized nutrition plan based on your age and lifestyle, and we offer Chinese herbal medicine as natural supplements. If you live in Edison or Woodbridge and wish to lose weight or quit smoking, we provide certified hypnotherapy that has been highly effective for those and other goals.
We invite you to pay a visit to Backsmart Wellness Center today to see how we can help you achieve and maintain your optimum health.
