What people are saying

Wendy Whelan
New York City Ballet

I had the good fortune recently of putting myself into the healing hands of Dr. Mark Pitcher. His incredible knowledge and focus proved most beneficial to me. He helped to diagnose and explain to me issues that I had been struggling with in my back and hip for most of this past year. Upon seeing him, my body has finally begun to unravel and unlock its deep holding pattern, and I have found tremendous relief. I trust his instincts completely and regard him among the top chiropractic body workers I've had the good fortune to work with over my nearly 30-year career as a leading dancer with the New York City Ballet.

Thank you for the excellent, comprehensive and thorough care you gave me this week. My 10K run on Thursday went very well. I feel good, for a change. See you when I am back in town.
