Aronan, Dr. Adlerstein is another one I phoned but Appel got back to me first AND had time open today so I went to him.
He had a very small office he shares with his sister who is a podiatrist. Their father was a podiatrist on 37th Ave. for the past 50 years and now the office is chiro and podiatry.
A good, thorough adjustment. Began with electric stim under a heat pack, then sonogram (never understood how it works because you don't feel a sonogram working but I'm a sucker for "bells and whistles".) Then Dr. Appel adjusted all the usual places: back, neck and hips AND then adjusted every other joint - head to toe. He did shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands fingers -- you get the picture. I've only had one other chiropractor who did feet or arms depending on what your complaint was so I was pleasantly surprised by it all.
I feel better. I have no idea what he charged because I have insurance and the claim is being put thru. I just paid a co-pay. Cool.
Aronan, I may still try Adlerstein another time just to have more than one since most doctors work out of more than one office and aren't always available when I have a small window of opportunity. Thanks for the recommendation.
