Went in with a lot of round ligament and hip pain due to pregnancy, couldn't even walk, and the Dr. Provided instant relief from day one. Even in my third trimester I have faithfully been going to my visits and every adjustment has helped me remain feeling well and active during this pregnancy. The adjustments are fast and immediately helpful and I walk out feeling like new. The staff is friendly and accommodating and affordable.
The visits are quick and efficient. I couldn't imagine a better way to take care of myself and am happy to be pain free. DR. Himmelstein is knowleadable and experienced and truly knows what he is doing. I was skeptical about chiropractic care during pregnancy but his work did wonders to my disbelief. He is also great at talking you through everything he is doing, so those that may feel a little apprehensive can rest assured you are in good hands. Do yourself a favor and setup a visit. You won't regret it!

I am very grateful for Dr Himmelstein. After persevering and suffering on a labor intensive job for over 20 years. Relying on the intelligence of my body to correct many ailments and injuries I have sustained, to no avail in recent times. Each of the three visits with Dr Himmelstein has resulted in such measurable improvement, It has been extremely gratifying. Thank you.

Dr. Himmelstein and his staff are great. I've undergone other PT and surgery for a bit over 3 years now and I have not felt nor seen results until I've been practicing with Dr. Himmelstein and his team. It's a medium office, but a great chiropractor and uses enhanced equipment that was able to crush built in scar tissue that caused me so much pain. In addition I wanted to make a shout out to Sceneca in the Physical therapy division.
His knowledge and enthusiasm for physical Heath is superb. A great asset and addition to Dr. Himmelsteins team. Thank you guys! Your work and dedication has really shut me up in thinking I was never going to be the same again. And by what I'm seeing now, I have the hope and positive motivation I needed to keep pushing to where I need to be. But Until then, you're still stuck with me.

Needed a Chiropractor just before vacation, and my regular Chiropractor couldn't fit me in on Thursday or Friday, so I was in search of a new one. Wow! Did I hit gold with finding Dr Stuart Himmelstein. He was able to see me on Friday, after leaving a message Thurs night. His staff was very professional and he is very personable, a super nice guy. He fixed me right up. I honestly couldn't believe how good my back felt the next day and through the next week! Needless to say, he is now my go to Chiropractor. If you're looking for a Chiropractor, you MUST contact this practice. You WON'T be sorry! You will be happy you did!

I have to disagree with the rest of the people who have given a five star to this chiropractor's practice. I was a patient at this practice for a few months and thank God I am out. The treatment did not work well for me, and furthermore, when it comes to real chiropractic work I had almost to beg to be adjusted. The hard work there is done by other people not the chiropractor and machines. I did not receive a good personal attention from the chiropractor that was in charge of my treatment.
The assessment was not done properly and thoroughly, therefore the treatment plan did not attend my needs. I came from another chiropractor that was a way much better. I had to quit Dr. Himmellstein practice and look for another chiropractor here at the NE Philadelphia. I definitely do not recommend Dr. Hillmeinstein chiropractic.

Dr. Himmelstein and his staff have consistently provided a high level of service and delivered personal care with the utmost of professionalism. Each appointment is promptly scheduled and provided without the typical "waiting" experienced at a doctor's office. The Chiropractors providing treatment carefully listened, diagnosed issues and formulated a treatment plan that effectively alleviated my symptoms. This practice is highly recommended. Job well done!

I had a great experience at Dr. Himmelsteins office. The staff was very efficient and the office was clean and had state of the art equipment. I had seen 2 other chiropractors in the last year that didnt help me at all with my disc herniation. After only 2 appts I was back to feeling much better and back to my quality of life.

After being in a bad car accident and seeing many specialists, Dr Himmelstein was able to diagnose where my pain was coming from thus allowing me to focus on seeing the proper specialists and getting the correct treatment to help with the pain. Friendly and personable folks that take the time to get to know you.

I injured my lower back a few years ago and a co-worker recommended Dr. Himmelstein. What a wonderful experience, all the staff are professional and extremely helpful. You will not find better chiropractic care anywhere. My back has never felt better! They even fixed my neck after problems arose with stiffness and pain. Now I visit once a month for a quick tune-up and a pain free life. Thank you!

I have been coming to this office for several months now and have never had a negative experience. Every person in their office from the receptionist to the massage therapist to the Dr's have always been friendly and treat you as if they've know you for years. They are all very knowledgeable and are genuinely concerned and are always empathetic (which I feel is so important). If you are in pain - this is where you want to be!

After my accident I needed help with my back pain. My regular doctor was unable to help me so I went online and found Dr. Himmelstein. His reviews were good, so I went to him and very pleased that I did. My back has never felt better since the accident and recommend Dr. Himmelstein to everyone. Thanks Lexi

This office has saved me during my pregnancy!! I was going to see Dr. Robin prior to getting pregnant for adjustments which was helping my lower back pain but when I got pregnant the Lower back/hip pain intensified. Dr. Robin has been able to make my pregnancy enjoyable, has listened to what/where I was hurting and has been an absolute MIRACLE for me during my pregnancy. Without this office and the adjustments I have been getting, I would be one miserable pregnant woman!! I look forward to walking into this office to the smiling Lawanda, talking with John (masseuse) and being adjusted by the amazing Dr. Robin! Thank you all so much!!

Great place to get treatment. Flexible hours and can always get an appointment no problem. Very flexible with walk ins also. If youre in need of treatment for your back, neck or anything else come here. They always seem to get my back feeling 20 years younger
