About DeFabio Chiropractic Associates in Berkeley Heights
We've been delivering quality chiropractic care to the Berkeley Heights community since 1985.
Our approach is simple. We believe that health is among our most valuable possessions and treat everyone like an elite athlete that needs to get ready for the next game. That means when you come to the office in pain or unable to do the things you want, we do everything we can to get you feeling better and back on track as soon as possible. This approach is three fold:
1. Relief Care

When many people seek care in our office they have one goal: relief. So that’s where we start! During this initial stage of intensive care, we have several obligations:
- Diagnose the underlying cause of your health problem
- Recommend a care plan to produce the fastest results possible
- Offer ways patients can participate in their recovery
- Explain value of post-symptomatic wellness care
2. Rehabilitative Care
Research has shown that exercises are important to prevent many problems from returning. During the rehabilitative phase of care we will teach you the proper exercises to restore your flexibility, strength and stability. This really helps with long term correction. Most exercise programs can be as brief as 10 minutes per day.
3. Wellness Care
We encourage our patients to achieve the highest levels of health possible. Through educational opportunities (like this website), we hope to communicate the value of ongoing chiropractic care. Research has shown that 12-17 wellness visits per year reduces medical visits 43% and medical expenses 20% annually. Now those are heavy stats! Our desire is to encourage our patients to abandon the prevailing sickness care model of health (waiting for symptoms and then taking action), and embrace the emerging wellness model of prevention.
You’re the Boss
Regardless of your health goals, please understand that we see ourselves as mere servants. It’s your body, your health and your future. Our job is to offer you the finest chiropractic care possible with an appropriate treatment plan. It's your job to decide how much of it you want and how quickly you want to proceed. Regardless of our recommendations, we will always embrace your decisions. At DCA we have an open door policy: patients are always welcomed with a smile whether it is the first visit, a pain relief visit or wellness check-up. You’re the boss!
