This drug-free approach addresses root causes of pain and health issues through precise spinal realignment. Patients experience improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced overall wellness through regular adjustments tailored to individual needs.
Neurological Exams
Comprehensive evaluations identify nervous system interference using advanced diagnostic tools. These exams measure nerve function, muscle response, and reflexes to create targeted treatment plans. Findings guide our adjustments and track patient progress over time.

Sad to see a so called "doctor" spreading misinformation about Covid and vaccines through the mail to our community. I did get a good laugh when he claims that "thoughtful, intelligent people, who think for themselves" see that Fauci is lying

I wish I would have done this years ago! Dr. Hearte has helped me in so many ways like better balance doing sports, less stiffness in my back when I get out of bed in the morning, pain in my neck gone and just feeling better over all. I would recommend this for everyone!

I went in to see Dr. Harte after my mother and father had been to see him. I suffer from osteoarthritis, constipation, depression and digestive upset. It has only been one week but already I am pooping naturally (which for me is a miracle!), my arthritis pain in my right hand is greatly reduced and my neck pain is gone! It is absolutely crazy. that the medical field is not treating spinal subluxation! I am feeling OPTIMISTIC about my health for the first time in 25 years! I am so blessed to have become a member here :-). THANK YOU DR. HARTE FOR HELPING ME! 5 Stars all the way!

Dr. Harte is all about healthy as we can be and self-care. That's real chiropractic which allows our bodies to heal themselves from inside to outside and top down by freeing the nervous system and circulatory system from pressures due to misaligned vertebrae (i.e. subluxation). He is caring, kind, funny, and yes, outspoken (that's his prerogative, plus he's a New Yorker). I feel safe in his office and never hear complaints, in fact, the opposite. Patients choose to wear, or not wear, masks, once through his portal.
We respectfully keep our spaces, and no one has covid-19. No one seems to have colds. I started going back to his practice fall of 2019, and I have not had a cold since. I highly recommend Dr. Harte. His practices will help all kinds of issues in the body way beyond back pain. Straight forward, no gimmicks, in a positive atmosphere filled with peace, humor and great eclectic music! - Heather Andrew, Novato

Dr. Harte helped my mother and I immensely! I came in with a back injury, from a horse accident when I was a child. I had difficulty standing and sitting without back support for long periods of time. After my first few sessions I already saw improvement! Now, after about 3 months all my pain had vanished and I finally feel energized and well equipped to go about my days, pain free! My mom also had a series of back and neck issues that made it difficult for her to go about her daily activities.
She been through pain management, medications and multiply surgeries but Dr. Harte's work is the only thing that relieved the tension and numbness in her back, neck and limbs. He is professional and pricey but he's 100% worth it. He knows what he's going.

Anyone who thinks infants need an adjustment should have any license taken away from them. Absolutely shameful and disgusting.

Considering there is zero scientific justification for chiropractic and the guy running this page says that pediatricians don't know what they're doing when they're actually is a lot of data to support pediatric practice, you should realize that this guy is a moron and run away. Or punch him in the nose, there's that.
