Dr. Wil Chiropractic, New York

Dr. Wil Schweigert was 15 when a chiropractor helped him avoid surgery for a drug-resistant shoulder condition. This was his career's initial inspiration, but it was the loss of his parents to cancer and heart disease that caused him to fully dedicate his studies to natural healthcare. Perhaps it's this personal connection to his work that has allowed Dr. Schweigert to provide drug- and surgery-free care for multiple generations of families. After an in-depth consultation and a frank discussion with the vertebrae, he determines the best chiropractic and nutritional techniques to relieve any number of conditions. He also helps patients along their journey to wellness through comprehensive weight-loss plans, which may call on detoxifying cleanses and convenient recipes based on principles of the paleo diet to help trim down inches and improve health.
