The Joint Chiropractic - Hoboken

Dr. Douglass is a 1995 graduate of Life University in Marietta, GA. His undergraduate education came through the Burlington County College Pre Med program in NJ, with his Physics and Organic Chemistry requirements from Brenau University in Georgia. Since attaining his doctorate degree, passing both state and federal boards and receiving his NJ license, his primary focus has been the C1 (atlas vertebra/1st cervical) subluxation (misalignment) and its subsequent compromise to overall body function, health and healing. A significant amount of published research and his own experience after thousands of specific atlas (C1) adjustments has shown the efficacy of this protocol and philosophy.

Dr. Douglass has a great passion for educating patients to the reality of the overall health and healing benefits of improved nerve system function, through regular and specific chiropractic care. His desire is for patient's to understand that chiropractic is not a duplication of any services provided by other health professionals; massage therapy or any sort of treatment for particular symptoms, but rather a very focused analysis and specific correction of the "offending" vertebra, to remove stress and malfunction from the nervous system, which controls and coordinates all function throughout every cell, organ and system of the body.

Dr. Douglass finds great solace in seeing a patient's potential for health improve; and often times their recovery from diverse chronic health issues and debilitating pain. He wants everyone to know that chiropractic, along with proper nutrition, regular exercise and positive thinking should be a lifestyle and is truly, the best health insurance available.
