Testimonials

I am a Chiropractor who lived and practiced in Massachusetts for many years until I moved back to Norway in 1999. I am very familiar with different practitioners in the Massachusetts area, but always include a visit to Dr. Martin Rosen at the Wellesley Chiropractic Office each summer when we visit the States. His many years of experience and expertise have helped us greatly, and I know Dr. Rosen is passionate about what he does, and is always evolving in his Field. Martin Rosen and the Wellesley Chiropractic Office have my deepest respect and my highest recommendation.

After a year of incapacitating illness and severe neurological symptoms following a whiplash injury, I requested a consultation from Marty Rosen. Marty gave me a diagnosis that none of my other doctors had considered, treatable by chiropractic rather than pharmaceuticals or surgery, and proposed a course of very gradual, gentle adjustments. I am feeling much, much better after 6 weeks and plan to continue, as even my most intractable symptoms are slowly disappearing. Marty is not just a gifted chiropractic practitioners but a true healer, compassionate, responsive and perceptive in ways that I have not encountered with other medical professionals.I’m very grateful to have him nearby and so accessible (my other doctors can’t see me again until April!). He has also helped my husband very much over the years, with lower-back and posture issues. I recommend him highly.

I first started seeing a chiropractor when I was 24 years old. I had seen several doctors about the severe sciatica I was having inn my lower back and legs. Nothing worked so I figured it couldn’t hurt to try chiropractic. After several visits I was back at work feeling great. That was 1974. Through the years I tried several different chiropractors with some good and some not so good results. Being in the trades my body took a nasty beating. In 1989 I went to Dr. Rosen for the first time and was amazed at how good he was compared to all the others I had seen over the years. He truly has a “gift” for healing.and he is a fabulous human being! Dr. Rosen is by far the best in the business. I am proud of my 29 year relationship with Wellesley Chiropractic and highly recommend them to everybody. They changed my life.

I believe it’s either close to 30 years or probably more since I first stepped into the office of Wellesley Chiropractic and entrusted myself and eventually my daughter to Dr. Martin Rosen’s care. The mere mention of sustaining a 30-year relationship with a healthcare provider should indicate the level of trust and respect that enable such continuity to even exist today. Our treatment outcomes were continually positive within a range of significant physical problems incurred over a lifetime.

After a devastating operation in 1983, my outlook on allopathic medicine changed completely. Since then I have deliberately sought out “alternative” treatments before immediately resigning myself to recommended “western” treatment modalities. Over and over, I would consider what I was being told to do, yet Dr. Rosen’s care and treatments are what brought me through to healing, without a surgical knife, drugs and anesthesia.

In one situation, I contracted E-Coli. I was very near death when it was finally diagnosed. After 8 days in the hospital with 24-hour delivery of 5 different antibiotics, I was discharged, but believe me, I was a mess. I was told my ovaries were the size of eggs; that because I was 42 years old, I didn’t want to have any more children and that I should have a hysterectomy. Needless to say, I eventually learned that had I opted for that surgery in the timeframe it was suggested, I wouldn’t be here writing this to you as my entire body was completely septic, meaning I would have died on the operating table, had I been opened up. My self-determined, follow-up care involved seeing Dr. Rosen probably every week and two months later I opted for exploratory surgery to make sure I was ok. It was day surgery and completed with a laparoscope. I was fine; the ovaries healed, no longer the size of eggs. No other system trauma indicated from the E-Coli. In cases like this the psychological scars can easily continue beyond the bodily problem itself.

In another situation, ovarian cysts were creating a painful problem for me. An MRI indicated they existed. Surgery was indicated. I took two months to receive treatment from Dr. Rosen. I also gave up coffee and chocolate (as I have at least 80 times over.) Needless to say, the second MRI at the end of two months indicated the cysts were gone. As was the pain, and the twice a month bleeding that went along with them. I have never had them again.

I’ve written about these experiences explicitly because patients endure horrendous stress during times of serious illness. Every single time I opted to change the course and obtain care from Dr. Rosen, I avoided the surgical table and all the trauma associated with it.

In my opinion, Dr. Rosen is a brilliant practitioner. He is very funny, congenial, caring and understanding. Through his dedication and professionalism, I believe he is an exceptional healer and a rarity. How can I thank him enough for all the care and support he has provided my daughter and me over my lifetime? Can you possibly name someone in your life that has done as much for such a long period of time?
He is incredibly intuitive. I know they are very familiar with my bone and body structure, yet all I have to do is look at them some days and they know exactly what the source of the problem is and where it is located. Many are the days when an adjustment would be made and I could feel my energy rising all the way home. And yes the pain would be gone, too.

I will be eternally grateful for the excellent care we have received from Dr. Rosen and the entire dedicated, professional team at Wellesley Chiropractic. They are by far the very best.
