Our chiropractic adjustments focus on correcting spinal misalignments to improve nervous system function and alleviate pain. This service helps patients with back pain, neck pain, and headaches through manual manipulation techniques.

Dry needling targets muscle trigger points to relieve chronic pain and improve range of motion. This technique benefits patients with myofascial pain syndrome and sports injuries. The treatment promotes healing by stimulating blood flow and releasing muscle tension.

We provide comprehensive treatment plans including spinal adjustments and soft tissue therapy. Patients receive documentation support for insurance claims and personalized rehabilitation programs.

Dr Alfono and his staff are excellent! Very personable, make you feel very comfortable and are extremely informative about the process. I had no idea what to expect from a Chiropractor when I first made the appointment, I can say for sure that I am glad I chose Dr Alfono and LaPlata Family Chiropractic.

My family has known this practice since around '95, inclusive of me starting before I was in my teens. It's fair enough to say that I am one of Dr. Frank Alfano's children for basically knowing him all my life. He kept scoliosis at bay for me even through maintenance on home visits while in college. This practice has always been professional with a family feeling. Even though I live out-of-state, upon a recent visit, I was impressed with being in the care of not only Dr. Frank Alfano but also his son, Dr. Christian Alfano! Still impressed and wish I could maintain the same care where I currently reside. I highly recommend this practice to anyone in the area.or even willing to travel.

Dr is misdiagnosing, he said I have a herniated disk, so obviously I went to the doctors office and she said he was completely wrong. He spends the whole appointment going over "problems" then has staff give a cheap electric shock therapy, all I wanted was to have my spine adjusted. Young man who "adjusted" did a very poor job. Nothing out of the ordinary I could do at home and barely tried to even correct my lower back issue. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!
Front staff very passive aggressive. If you don't have insurance do not go! They hide the real price of the appointment, it's $95.00 not $70.00 like stated online, an added on $25 for "pads" for the electric machine that doesn't do anything (that's part of the appointment not informed in the in initial price). Scam! Don't let him steal your money!

Referred here by multiple long standing clients, and could not be any more pleased. This is one of the first times I have ever had a doctor take the time to explain how and what they are going to do and why I am experiencing the pain that I am, in a way that is easy to process and understand. The entire staff is incredibly friendly, and everyone in the PT room is very welcoming and they are quick to learn a new face. Highly recommend this practice!

LaPlata Family Chiropractor is AMAZING! I came to them with severe back pain and I feel so much better after my treatments with them. They not help make your pain go away, they are the most friendliest group of people I have ever encountered in the medical field. I am truly grateful God has led me to this practice.

I cannot say enough positive things about this practice. Both Drs. Frank and Christian are extremely personable, which elevates the overall experience. The rest of the staff is also extremely friendly and welcoming. The office is clean and well maintained and caution is maintained regarding COVID protocols. I have been a patient for 8 months and during this time the chronic neck and back pain I had experienced for years has now been alleviated with treatment and maintenance. I highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking a chiropractor.

I always have excellent service, very short wait time if any at all. The office has a family vibe to it, everyone that works at Dr A's office have great attitudes. All the staff will go out of their way to help you any way they can. I would not think of going anywhere else. I have been going to Dr A's for three years and will continue for many more.
