From the owner: Lifeline Hygienics have been pioneers in the field of colonic irrigation, serving the New York…read moretristate area since 1993. Our colonics are a very gentle, but extremely effective irrigation of the colon. We use the Wood Gravitational Method, an industry practice designed by a naturopathic physician named Dr. Robert Wood, in the 1930's.

On your first visit with us, we do a consultation before we do the procedure. We discuss your diet so that we can recommend things that can help you have more full and regular bowel habits. We take a holistic approach, by considering your health history, as well as your stress level or any emotional issues you may have, to guide you to a healthier colon lifestyle. We use disposable accessories for our colonics. We also use natural, medical grade disinfectants to clean with. You can rest assured that there will not be any cross contamination. At Lifeline Hygenics, we want you to have a relaxed, nurturing experience with us.

Probably the worst experience with a medical practice, which is ironic considering the holistic…read morenature of functional medicine. Dr. Yee probably has the most emotionless bedside manner - incredibly cold and no sense of empathy. After putting me on a protocol, it was impossible to check in and discuss some side effects. It would take up to 9 messages to hear back at which time, I was told she doesn't take 10 min appointments. The assistants who support with calls and questions are the opposite of support - nasty attitude, rude, condescending. The friend who referred me had the same problems and experience - obviously after referring me. I'm going to try another doctor who has already proven to be responsive in a more meaningful way. Awful.

My impression from the Blum Center comes mostly from Dr. Pamela Yee…read more Every time I meet with Dr. Yee I'm even more impressed. She is simply a wonderful human being! I had the fortune to meet with Dr. Yee about a year before I really needed her help. I didn't know at the time that I had breast cancer. During the hardest time in my life she helped a lot as a friend with information and resources, which pointed me in the right direction for treatments. Later, when I became her patient, I'm even more impressed with her depth of knowledge, open mindedness and efficacy. Only after our second meeting, thanks to her recommendations I finally started sleeping better. I feel that she is thoroughly investigating my case with tests and I'm confident that my health is in capable hands, and her treatment plan will work. Thank you Dr. Yee!

About 10 years ago I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis and extremely painful sciatica. After…read moreseeing an orthopedic doctor and then surgeon, everyone recommended back surgery. I was determined to avoid surgery at all costs. I started with PT, saw a craniosacral therapist and looked for a chiropractor. Dr. Askinasi was recommended to me by several co-workers. I started seeing him. Little by little, getting stronger I was able to add ballet and some Pilates and other exercises to help strengthen my core and I have been able to avoid surgery. Except for exercise in various forms, the only other consistent has been Dr. Askinasi. For the most part I see him twice a month. Recently I have also experienced a pinched nerve due to erosion in my neck. Dr. Askinasi was able to order an x-ray where we had the results the same day he wrote the prescription, and has also referred me to excellent doctors when needed. I know I would not be able to enjoy all I do if it wasn't for his adjustments on a regular basis. I was always leery of chiropractors but after my experience these past 10 years, while I can't vouch for all chiropractors, I can for Dr. Askinasi. He has been a life saver!

I made my first appointment with Irina (in late September) based on reading the glowing reviews…read morehere; now, after five reflexology sessions with her, it is such a pleasure for me to write one of my own! I started seeing Irina at a time when I was finally ready to work through some of the emotional baggage I'd been carrying from a very difficult experience in my life a few years prior. Straight away I sensed that Irina's work would be deeply supportive of this process. In our first session, she shared that my mantra should be "release, relax, let go." Simple in principle; not always easy in practice! But I can say that after five reflexology sessions I am SO much lighter and more confident than I was when I started. You could actually see the internal changes taking place week on week-- they showed up dramatically in my face and the way i carried myself. I feel so incredibly grateful to Irina for this. (Oh, and I should also add to all this: it feels AH-mazing!). Irina is a treasure. She is clearly so experienced and gifted, and I place so much value in her wise and empowering guidance. I can tell that she will be someone I come back to again and again when the need arises. I honestly can't recommend her highly enough. (p.s. If you have a specific issue you want to work on as I did I would recommend doing a course of 6 - 10 sessions--very effective).

We also have separate packages for couples sessions as opposed to individual sessions. It is expensive but let's face it, if you're not motivating to go to the gym you have no excuse.

She…read moresent a video of herself doing the exercise prior to starting the challenge so that the group I was in knew what to expect. I admit some days were harder than others but I felt stronger each day I did the exercise. By the last week I felt a lot more confident in my execution.

I love a good accountability group chat especially since COVID forced so many of us to stop going to the physical gym and have to work out at home I would absolutely recommend Crystal because she genuinely cares about her clients and she wants to see you become your best self.
