My general doctor recommended Dr. Alfonsi to me after I had months of on and off migraines and I didn't want to take a bunch of medications. I was hesitant to go to a chiropractor, just because I was a little freaked out about someone cracking my bones (especially my neck). The first appointment is a thorough consultation. Dr. Alfonsi wanted to get to know me, my health history, family's health history, and what I was trying to get out of going to a chiropractor. She was very educational, informative, and understanding. She took it easy on me for the first "crack" and we progressed after I got comfortable with the routine. This was back in 2021. It's currently 2023 and I haven't had a migraine since. I've been going to Dr. Alfonsi regularly at least once to twice a month (not just for migraines). She has helped me with digestion problems, major back pain, as well as hip and leg pain. I trust her more than my general doctor to help treat me. It's definitely an investment, but I rather feel good than spending days in and out of hospitals and taking a bunch of medications. read more

At the start of my third trimester of pregnancy, I had a pain in my tailbone that would shoot down my glute. Sometimes it was so painful, I could not walk or stand. I started seeing a physical therapist and went multiple times, but none of the exercises he prescribed helped. Finally I was getting so desperate that I decided to try a chiropractor for the first time and was referred to Dr. Alfonsi from a friend. She diagnosed my issue as an inflamed disc, and used targeted massage, the "Cox Method" (using a special table) and energy work as well as ice. She also explained why I had inflammation in the first place, so I could make little changes in daily life. All the adjustments were so minor that I was not sure they were at all effective. There were no hard "cracking" or twisting of any sort. All of it was very gentle. However, after my third session (all done within 2 weeks), I had my first pain free day a couple days later. And I continue to have pain-free days! I'm walking normally, even exercising again. I'm now going to see her every 2 weeks (per her recommendation)! I would absolutely recommend her. I would also encourage any patient be comfortable asking questions. I had a lot! And if I didn't ask, I wouldn't have learned key information that helped my recovery. read more

Update: It's now been a while since I've seen Dr Alfonsi, but I just referred another friend to her and thought I ought to update my review. Working with Dr Alfonsi on my posture and strength due to ongoing lower back pain, eventually we got to a point where she said "You've done everything right, you're strong enough, if you still feel sore maybe you need a new mattress". I really loved my comfy mattress so I wasn't keen to change it, but I happened to house sit for a week for some friends - and I had *no back pain* while sleeping on their new mattress. So I checked exactly what mattress that was and got the same one for myself at home. Problem completely solved! Dr Alfonsi is honest, kind, competent, and knowledgeable and I gladly refer anyone I know who needs physical therapy to her. Original review follows: Dr Alfonsi is absolutely wonderful. I have previously been to two different physical therapists who were fantastic and an excellent chiropractor. So I didn't really need a new referral, but I had a new-to-me condition begin about four months ago, and the doctor I was seeing for it said that his patients with similar issues had had good success with Dr Alfonsi. So I went to see her, and I'm so glad I did!! She incorporates many different practices and capabilities for a full healing treatment. I can still remember the first visit, when she incorporated energy work. I've done only a little bit of energy work in the past so it took me a moment to realize what was happening, and it was just *amazing* and so very much what my body needed. I realized that part of what was going on with my body was my electrical systems being out of whack, which was showing up in a number of ways, and no other physical therapist or chiropractor had ever done energy work with me. I have a ruptured disk in my neck and moderate to severe narrowing in my spine, so usually those get the focus. But a visit with Dr Alfonsi provides a wide range of healing treatment, leaving me refreshed and more comfortable immediately. We quickly were able to transition from twice a week to once a week to every 10 days to now every other week. The issues I initially went to see her for are now completely resolved, and we're now working on continuing to improve my posture and strength to help me eliminate residual pain from the long-term spinal issues. In addition to the wonderful in person treatments, Dr Alfonsi instructs me in several exercises I do at home. She does a great job of explaining where I'm at now and how we'll get to where I want to be. Another thing I want to mention is one of the most important. With Dr Alfonsi I really feel *seen*, and respected and appreciated as a whole person. I am always a bit nervous going into a relationship with someone who is an expert with bodies. I've never had a particularly good relationship with my own body. Dr Alfonsi never makes me feel ashamed of this. Not that anyone else ever did, but with Dr Alfonsi it's actively the opposite. She makes me feel like it's totally OK - whatever my history and reasons for being how I am - I don't even have to go into them. I just know it's OK to be where I'm at, and she helps me get better, experience less pain, and get stronger and learn how to keep my body pain (and numbness) free going forward. I also want to mention - despite the pandemic that is ongoing and quite a bit of an issue in SF right now - I feel VERY safe visiting Dr Alfonsi. She is incredibly safe and thorough. It's just her at her office - there are literally no other people to interact with. Mask wearing is mandatory. She checks your temperature before you enter and you leave your shoes at the door. She wipes down everything between patients. She always wears mask & gloves. Payment is contactless. There's a big container of hand sanitizer. I feel she takes safety seriously and would not cause me to take any more risk than is absolutely necessary in doing an in-person visit like this. read more

Top care. Simply amazing therapy and knowledge. Highly recommend. She went above and beyond to prescribe the best therapy to relieve my shoulder/back pain. read more

I was referred to Dr. Alfonsi to deal with some RSI pain in my hands. Scheduling and getting my first appointment was a bit difficult since when I called her number, her voicemail was full and I had to call several times to leave a message. However, I was able to get in touch and confirm an appointment. I've since learned she is a single person business owner, it's only her doing this, so I have some more patience for scheduling. Once I started seeing her, it's been easily to schedule more appointments. After several sessions now, I've been really happy with her knowledge and treatment plan. It's been hard to find doctors with knowledge around my problem, so it's been great to see results quickly and to talk about what the plan is moving forward. I'm confident in her knowledge and what she telling about my problem. The location is convenient enough for me and insurance is covering most of my treatment, so I'm really happy with Dr. Alfonsi and the help I'm getting. read more

I had back pain from sports injury. Dr. Alfonsi was able to pinpoint the cause, provide necessary therapy as well as guidance on exercises I could do at home. Dr. Alfonsi is also super friendly and approachable. It's always a pleasure to go to her appointment:) read more

Highly recommend Dr. Alfonsi. She has helped me with two totally different issues, one a few years ago which remains fixed to this day, and another more recently which had been plaguing me for a while, and after only a few weeks under her treatment is already so much better (why did I wait so long to come in?!). She is great at her job, doesn't make you come in more than you need, is timely and efficient when you do go, and just generally a lovely person. I've recommended her to several friends and am overdue to leave this review here as well! read more

My primary care doc recommended Elisabetta to help with the severe arthritis in my knee, which had degenerated enough to have me limping up and down stairs, and no longer able to ride my bike. In one session alone my knee improved enough for me to walk down stairs w/o much pain. A few sessions later and I was back on my bike and nearly pain free! Her knowledge of the body was truly impressive, and her warm wise bedside manner made me feel I was in good hands immediately. I will go back to her for any future issues. read more

I had back, hip and knee pain for months. After a comprehensive first appointment I was happily surprised to be able to get out of bed and move with little to no pain. Dr. Alfonsi is gifted and gentle at what she does! read more

I have experienced pain in my back, shoulders, and neck over the years, and have been visiting Dr. Alfonsi for 5 years. She is truly a miracle worker and her methods are very effective. She has a soothing and caring aura, and she is very knowledgeable. I feel great after every visit. I would definitely recommend her!!!!! read more

I began seeing Dr. Alfonsi late last year as I had some changes in my work schedule and required a chiropractor who was closer to my employer. Dr. Alfonsi is a professional who is warm, attentive, and is a true master of her craft. I have had constant issues with the curvature in my back and misaligned hips and she made some observations and changes to my behavior that resulted in significant improvements to my body and posture. She was able to find the root cause of certain issues that no other chiropractor in my seven years of prior treatment had ever noticed or mentioned! I highly recommend Dr. Alfonsi's services for both preventative care and if you have any major issues. Her prices are extremely reasonable and she is very flexible in scheduling appointments. Dr. Alfonsi is a total miracle worker and I look forward to working with her more in the future! read more

1.5 years ago during my second trimester, I started getting the most painful back spasms at night (3-5 spasms) when I'm sleeping. They were so painful that my entire back would freeze up, and I would have to wake up my husband to help me roll out of bed, and I would sloooooowly stand up straight. I then needed to massage my back with a machine for an hour until my muscles would start to relax, and then walk around for another hour before I could even try to sleep again. Even then, my back was still rock hard, but I could trick myself to fall asleep again. Needless to say, I barely slept during that time. After giving birth (10 months after the issues started), my father in law started giving me free electo-accupuncture every day. He's a top 5 Accupuncturist in NJ!!! He got my back spasms down to 2-3 a night, but hit a plateau. He cleaned up my entire system, but my stubborn back problems just wouldn't go away. He is a very prideful person, and he was just so perplexed. My father in law treated me EVERY day for 4 months, and hit a plateau. I also saw a bunch of other chiro's, physical therpists, etc, but I was convinced they would help me with the bare minimum so that I wouldn't actually get better, so they could keep collecting my copay. I stopped seeing them after 2 months .. it was useless. Through a friend's recommendation, I was able to find Dr. Alfonsi. I was skeptical because of my experience with the other doctors, but I was desperate. Dr. Alfonsi charged my $85 per session. The sticker price was painful, but I was desperate. After 6 sessions, I was already able to sleep through the night!!! WOW!!!! Here are the reasons why Dr. Alsonsi should be cloned and deemed a national treasure ... - She actually cares. She isn't here to keep a long list of patients who will come over and over again so she can bill our insurance. She really wants you to get better, and for you not to come again - She is a chiropractor, physical therapist, massage therapist, and saint all wrapped up in one. It is ONE visit -- you get to save time and energy between seeing multiple doctors - She has a machine that she spent $18,000 on, that stretches your entire body. She stretched my spine, and then used her magical fingers/techniques to slowly push my spine back in place. My pregnancy had knocked everything sideways, and my nervous system was sending crazy messages to my back muscles to harden - She uses her fingers to really go deep into the problem areas. I've been to massages where they use their elbows and body, and it really doesn't help the problem. Dr. Alfonsi really pinpoints the areas and works out all my knots. - She has had a billionaire offer to hire her as his personal chiropractor because she's THAT good, but she wants to help more than 1 person get better. THANK YOU Dr. Alfonsi for not being allured by money!!! After I saw the 6 session improvement (I went 2x a week), I immediately asked Dr. Alfonsi if I could come 3x a week ... then I asked her if I could come 5x a week. I believe most doctors would love to have a patient come every day, but Dr. Alfonsi said I needed a day in between for my muscles to heal from the treatment. She really isn't there to take your money. I am temporarily living in NJ, and I miss Dr. Alfonsi every day. I cannot wait to go back to SF and have her treat my stubborn back again. Because of her care and talent, I now have the gift of sleep again. My back is still very messed up, but I am so thankful every day when I wake up and I realize I had a full 7 hours of sleep. Health really is so valuable. THANK YOU Dr. Alfonsi!!!! read more

I have been visiting Dr. Alfonsi for a couple of months now and came in with a very bad lower backache, worsened by pregnancy. Dr. Alfonsi has been very helpful and kind and my back has improved a lot since then. She gave me some very helpful tips as well on how to keep on healing on days when I don't have appointments, especially on how to improve my posture and what tools to use. It has been a pleasure to be treated by Dr. Alfonsi and my husband will start visiting her soon too. I cannot recommend her enough! read more

Dr. Alfonsi has done great work for me on reducing the level of tinnitus that I suffer from. She uses some unusual but effective techniques. She's very professional and courteous. read more

I went to Dr. Alfonsi for a severe sciatica problem which had been affecting me for more than one month. The pain disappeared after the first session. She was able to understand the different causes of my problem using a holistic, integrated approach, which considers both the physical and psychosomatic aspects. She gave me precious advice about diet and posture and she recommended helpful exercises. She helped me understand an emotional dynamic related to my problem. She was attentive, kind, a great listener, compassionate and extremely competent and professional. In my experience, it's really difficult to find a healer who has this complete approach. I felt she really took care of me. I'm very lucky to have met her. She will be for me a point of reference in the future. I have recommended her to my friends and I strongly recommend her to anybody. read more

I cannot rave enough about Dr Alfonsi. She makes me feel taken care of and understood. I've been seeing her for about 3 years now and she is a miracle worker. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my back pain. If I could give her 10 stars, I would. read more

I'm so grateful I found Dr Alfonsi. I came in with front hip flexor pain I'd had for months, and no amount of stretching or rest or ice/heat or meds could ease it. Dr Alfonsi had an IMMEDIATE impact - she was thoughtful and curious with her diagnosis, immediately figured it out (it was in my back and the front of the leg, not in the body of the muscle itself - who knew?!) and I felt improvements in the first session. From there it's progressed to being almost entirely pain free and I'm back on my bike 3x a week with no issues. Finally, a chiropractor who believes in varying approaches - soft tissue work, stretching, taping, energy work, lifestyle changes - and doesn't treat everyone the same. read more

I can't say enough to describe the amazing work that Dr. Alfonsi provides at her practice. I was a passenger in a life threatening car accident and the whiplash from the windshield has affected me for a little over a decade now. Dr. Alfonsi has been the only clinician in her field to even make a difference and relieve me from the chronic pain I endure on a daily basis. She is truly passionate about her work, beyond grateful for her and the referral from my amazing GP. Her techniques work from the source of the issues and are gentle, opposed to the chiropractors I experienced post trauma. She genuinely is the best. read more

I've been going to Dr. Alfonsi for the past two years now. I started going when I'd been in a car accident and had upper back pain due to whiplash. Once she helped that pain go away, I kept going for regular maintenance of my lower back, which is chronically inflamed due in part to genetics. Dr. Alfonsi is the only medical provider who has ever treated me holistically. She recommended that I try daily exercises and change my diet to see if that would help reduce my lower back pain. I was skeptical, but it has been working! Because of her recommendations, I don't have to go in for visits as often. She also gives 15 minutes of targeted neurofascial release before every adjustment-- something I don't believe many chiropractors do. This feels awesome, and is part of what has helped me feel so much better. read more

I have known and been treated by Dr. Alfonsi for nearly 15 years. She is a talented, kind and compassionate healthcare provider who cares deeply for her patients. What I find most interesting--and helpful--is that Dr. Alfonsi is one of a few chiropractors in the world to also be a Board Certified Chiropractic Neurologist, a unique specialization that requires an additional 3 years of study and training. This expertise enables her to treat very specific conditions that a general chiropractor would not typically handle. For example, two years ago I had a horrific fall and very badly sprained both my ankles. It was the worst accident of my life and the swelling was terrible. Even though I treated the injury immediately with ice, elevation, etc, I needed special help. Dr. Alfonsi spent time working on me to break down the scar tissue and start the healing process. I saw her multiple times a week for this therapy and I know she saved my ankles and prevented me from losing mobility. A year ago I, unfortunately, had a bad bike crash in Golden Gate Park (I was cut off by a car blocking the bike lane). Again, Dr. Alfonsi treated me and helped me to regain mobility once my bruised ribs began to heal. She also was able to confirm that I luckily had not cracked or fractured any ribs. I cannot recommend Dr. Alfonsi enough. She is a very talented doctor and takes great pride in her work helping her many patients. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Alfonsi for 3 months after severely spraining my lower back and hip - going to her initially in excruciating pain and extremely limited mobility. She came highly recommended by trusted friends and colleagues. Fortunately as a result of these visits, I have regained mobility, can stand straight, walk and have decreased the pain meds initially provided by my Primary M.D. I am now virtually pain free. Dr. Alfonsi was frank and thorough in my initial exam explaining the situation and exactly what to expect over a 3 month period of treatment and healing. My condition has improved EXACTLY as she indicated. In addition to the heaing treatments I've received in her office, she has also gone "beyond the office walls" to instruct me in at-home protocols to speed my recovery; stretching specific to my condition, dietary considerations and how important it is to include all factors in healing: physical, dietary, and emotional. To say that she has restored my health is an undertatement - without her I would surely have fallen into the "back surgery" brigade and been laid up for months, if not years on corrosive, dangerous chemical pain relievers. As others have said, she's no "back cracker". Her manner is tender and sensitive, soft spoken and thoroughly professional. I will always be grateful for her methodical approach, years of experience, healing touch and wisdom. I would recommend her without reservation to anyone seeking relief from chronic or event specific body pain. read more

To get this referral, I had to marry my husband..but it was worth it. You do not have to make such a commitment. Dr Alfonsi is a well kept secret in the catering business. She is the go-to for the largest local upscale company in San Francisco. She fixes them and they get back to work...or so they said when I heard about her. My experience is similar. She listens attentively, offers appropriate treatment with several modalities focusing on the structural element from many angles...with state of the art equipment...(don't let the humble office facade fool you). I recommend her highly. read more

I saw Dr Alfonsi for severe neck pain, I couldn't move, work nor sleep. She was extremely meticulous and attentive. She gave me the most accurate and detailed diagnosis that not even my MD provided. My pain is gone and I function at my fullest again. Dr Alfonsi is one of a kind, extremely professional, caring and she empowered me so I don't need to keep going back. We are so lucky to have her in the city she has knowledge, heart and intuition. read more

I've been going to Dr. Alfonsi for almost 10 years and she is 100% dedicated to her patients and making them well. I first went to see her because an old injury festered, and I could barely sleep at night. My left side was in constant pain, but after a few sessions, Elisabetta broke apart the knotted muscle, while also adjusting my back. Basically, my back is fine now, but I still see her on a regular basis to stay in alignment. Prevention is always better than cure, and Elisabetta is part of my "stay healthy" life style. read more

Dr. Alfonsi is a truly caring healer. I've been going to her for the last 6 months or so and feel so much better after a visit. She's knowledgeable, kind, and patient. I wish I could see her more often! read more

I highly recommend seeing Dr. Alfonsi. She put me on a thorough plan, gave me the help I needed and I always felt so much better after each visit. She is such a thoughtful doctor and truly cares about her patients! read more

Dr. Alfonsi is excellent. She is professional, knowledgeable, efficient and caring and provides a mixture of diagnostics, physical therapy suggestions, body work/massage and adjustments (never forced). I always leave feeling physically and emotionally restored. She helps me when I am in acute pain and also provides "tune ups." Dr. Alfonsi gives you confidence in your health and well being. I am so fond of her that sometimes I want to come back sooner than she advises! :) read more

I consider myself an athlete, or at least a wannabe one, but as i entered my 60's I started to have balance issues. I tried drills, etc, but they weren't helping. Finally, my primary Dr. recommended Dr Alfonsi. Within about 20 minutes of my first appointment she determined that my lack of balance related to my Cerebellum (balance and coordination area of the brain) shutting down due to my chronic stiff neck. She prescribed 3 simple "exercises" to "wake up" my balance sensors. Within a week I felt much more stable. My feet hit the ground differently and my balance was noticeably better and has continued to improve. I'm now try to see her every 2 weeks as she has helped with other body issues with treatment and her recommendations on life style adjustments. I would and have recommended her to anyone. read more

My husband was referred to Dr. Alfonsi by our family doctor for a back injury he had 10 years ago. Throughout the 10 years he received shots and pills for pain. At first I didn't know if my husband would make the trip since we live in Pacheco and her practice is in San Francisco. It took some convincing. After the first few visits he was in a lot of pain. She was breaking up years of knotted muscles. After several more sessions he started feeling relief. It's been a year and a half and he doesn't have the headaches, loss of balance and piercing pain in the middle of his back. He only takes anti-inflammatory's on occasion. She is the miracle that we were praying for. She is very knowledgable, sweet and is so patient. We highly recommend Dr. Alfonsi to our family and friends. read more

I've been receiving treatment from Dr Alfonsi for several years. There is no one else practicing chiropractic the way she does. I have severe degenerative disc disease and cannot have that traditional "twisting and cracking". Her methods are tailored to the specific needs of her patients. That said, she is an integral part of my chronic pain management. Regular visits with her has decreased my pain and reduced the medications I have to take. She has seriously improved my quality of life. My insurance covers some of the cost. Her office does all the billing. It really simplifies things! I pay my co-pay & deductibles using my flex spending account. One less thing to worry about.  Can't say enough good things about her. read more

I have been going to Dr. Alfonsi for quite some time. She is amazing! She's not simply a back cracker, who fixes you up just long enough to need another appointment in a week. She is a true healer, whose entire focus is getting you better for the long term. She also shares extremely valuable advice to help you get there. Sometimes it feels like she's using black magic--like when she can tell you every detail of your health from gently putting two fingers on your back. Freaky. But I'm sure it has something to do with her extensive training, experience, and dedication to her craft. Her personality is also a huge plus. Warm and friendly, but always professional. She can be equal measure sweet and stern, depending on what the situation requires. And her native Italian accent makes it all just a bit more fun. Allora! I give Dr. Alfonsi an enthusiastic 5 Stars. She's the best! read more

I was a complete skeptic about chiropractors, and then one morning four years ago I was brushing my teeth and suddenly could not move without severe back pain. I hobbled into Elisabetta's office shortly thereafter, bent nearly double, and walked out upright 30 minutes later. Elisabetta's knowledge of neuroanatomy is what sets her apart, as well as her gentle, caring manner. I had explained my back pain to my GP previously, and he seemed as clueless about what was causing it or how to make it better as I was. In contrast, Elisabetta told me exactly what the problem was, what I was doing that was exacerbating it, and gave me tips and exercises to heal it. Without her intervention I have no doubt that I would have ended up in some useless surgery or else in constant pain. Thanks, Elisabetta. read more

I have been seeing Elisabetta on and off for about 6 years I think, maybe 7 - time flies and I can't remember exactly! She is the only chiropractor in the entire Bay Area that I will go to. I literally drive an hour from my house to see her right now!! Qualifying myself - I grew up with chiropractics, my grandfather was a chiro when they were considered witch doctors. I have been to dozens of chiropractors over the years and some of them have been really good, others have been awful but Elisabetta, IMO, remains the best. My most recent injury (as I am involved in competitive sports, thus often hurting something) was whiplash - not from a car accident. Elisabetta was the only health care practitioner that was able to "put me back together again" - and only after a few treatments. After 2 weeks in her care I was up and running, back to the sport that that injured me in the first place. I first went to see her years ago for my lower back, which she fixed! Then I got a herniated disk in L5/S1 - again Elisabetta fixed that too (though that took a little longer which is to be expected). Ah yes and then mid back issues.... on the road to recovery thanks to Elisabetta's training in both chiropractics AND neurology. This is her caveat. She is a chiropractic neurologist - working with more than just the spine. I've had massages my entire life but when Elisabetta does some micro movements on my ligaments and muscles it feels entirely different and the results - well they speak for themselves. The other thing that she does, which helps immensely, is give me exercises to do on my own which completely work!!! -- as long as you actually do them ;) Lastly, she is a kind and caring practitioner who takes the time to listen and analyze. I really can't recommend her enough! She is my "knight in shining armor" -- and yes I looked, there were female knights!!! read more

Elisabetta is absolutely amazing! I can not recommend her enough. Saved me from an injury that I thought would affect me forever. She's patient and will try whatever is needed to get the help you need! Would give 10 stars if I could! Life saver! read more

Over the last 6 months I have experienced a strong back pain which made it difficult for me to perform certain movements (in particular standing up and bending). The problem just kept growing in intensity and had started interfering with my daily activities. I had already tried two different specialists without success, when a friend highly recommended Dr. Alfonsi to me: that was the beginning of the end of my back pain. During the first visit she "read" my back like a map: she could tell me (correctly) the history of my past injuries and how old they were. That was very impressive, and really caught my attention. She told me my back had been neglected for years (I'm a software engineer and sit at my desk all day long) but she was confident we could resolve the issues in a few sessions. She used a combination of direct manipulation, machine-based treatment and energy work and she gave me homework to do during the week. I started feeling better immediately after the first treatment and in a month my problem was completely resolved and hasn't come back since. I am delighted to have found Dr. Alfonsi: she's extremely knowledgeable, she has a calm, positive attitude and she hones in on the problem with complete focus. I can't recommend her enough. read more

Dr. Alfonsi is a true master of her craft. She evaluates the patient holistically. Instead of just cracking your back (which she can do as well, if needed), Dr. Alfonsi takes the time to perform the time-consuming treatments that other chiropractors do not afford time doing or do not find profitable - i.e., myofascial release, energy work, etc. She is a consummate professional that is passionate about her craft, even getting certified in skills beyond traditional chiropractor examinations. On the initial visit, I was impressed by her conducting a VERY thorough patient history. On subsequent visits, she sits you down to evaluate your musculoskelatal before going to work. She takes the time to explain her treatments. She proactively takes the time to email accompanying stretches and yoga videos that patients can do at home. The theme here is: She. Just. Cares. In this day and age where healthcare treats patients like a number and a dollar sign, Dr. Alfonsi elicits hope that there is still humanity in medicine. read more

Elisabetta is a true healer. I had chronic back pain. A month of going to her and I was on the path to permanent recovery.

Words cannot begin to express how grateful I am that my primary care provider referred me to Dr. Alfonsi. I have chronic back pain (I also work in healthcare - it's hard on the body) and have tried numerous modalities to try to treat it - from acupuncture to physical therapy and everything in between. Though I have gotten some relief from other providers, nothing compares to the amount of progress I've been able to make with Dr. Alfonsi, and in such a short amount of time! A few things that make Dr. A stand out: * She is very intuitive and pays meticulous attention. She was the first person who was able to ascertain the root of my problem, looking past just the symptoms and really understanding what is going on with my body. * Not only is she extremely knowledgable in her field, she takes time to explain in layman's terms what the issues are and how we can go about approaching them. * She takes time to really listen and understand her patients. I have never felt more seen or heard than I have when being treated by Dr. A. The way she goes about her treatments has improved not only my physical symptoms but also my mindset around them. * She has a very calming, approachable, and caring demeanor. You can trust that Dr. A has your best interests in mind and is truly invested in your healing. From the very first appointment, I have felt deeply cared for. * Her treatments *work*! I always look forward to seeing her because I know that I will leave feeling better. Seeing Dr. A has been a massive relief - I truly thought I was doomed to live with my chronic pain for the rest of my life and now believe that with Dr. A's help I'll not only feel better but also be able to enjoy the things I used to do like running, biking, and lifting patients. If you're considering Dr. A as your chiropractor, truly look no further. You will be in good hands. read more

Dr Elisabetta Alfonsi is a life saver! Both me and My husband LOVE her and drive almost an hour each time to see her. She is knowledgeable, professional, warm and caring. Never could i imagine being able to sit or walk again without having a daily back pains... We love you Elisabetta! read more

Dr Alfonsi is an absolute superstar!!! I wish I could give her a 6 star rating. I had ruptured two disks in my lower back 16 months before and it had healed up, but then suddenly came back to the point where I was bed bound for about a month!! I went to see Dr Alfonsi and she started on a program that had me back to to top shape in about 6 weeks. She uses the Cox Technique with great effectiveness. If you are in a situation where you are considering surgery - don't - go see Dr Alfonsi!! She has a gentle, mindful and very attentive approach. She considers all the parts and thanks to her I am abler to move around like I did before - go see her!! read more
