Testimonials

We’ve been patients at Wellesley Chriopractic since 2012, when our local primary care physician recommended them for our young son’s jaw muscle and neck problems. We started with Dr. Martin Rosen, who was fabulous with our son, and then I became a patient for my “incurable” TMJ, which has now gone away (and stayed away under the care of Dr. Erin Rosen for the last two years or so, as we transitioned over to her). Now 4 out of 5 family members are patients, dealing with scoliosis and other issues. Innovative and “out of the box” thinkers, they treat us as individual human beings, and not as some checklist of symptoms. WE always strongly recommend this practice to friends who need chiropractic care.

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.

For superb, careful, thoughtful care, I highly recommend Wellesley Chiropractic. From the first analysis of X-rays, to a clear analysis of my needs, the office has been thorough and highly professional. My wife and I drive a considerable distance every two weeks to get adjustments from Martin. As we are now in our 80s, getting such care adds much to our enjoyment of life.

My family and I are longstanding patients of Wellesley Chiropractic and love their services. The doctors are knowledgeable and skilled, and they are my first call when something physically feels off. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a chiropractor in the area.
