Going to a Chiropractor is a fairly major decision. They use various techniques to manipulate your skeleton, very often the spine, and muscles to relieve pain, reduce inflammation and increase general well-being. So trying to find one you can trust in a crowded field of possibilities and then of course hopefully covered by your insurance and most importantly one that gets results, is a very personal thing. I have had four chiropractors in the last 30 years. The first achieved not just good results but completely got rid of pain in my shoulder. The second completely got rid of an elbow pain problem. The third was a total con-artist and my present one - Dr. D'Souza at Balance 4 Life - is just great. I have an arthritic hip and a lower back pain that were causing me problems and now these are well on the way to not being a problem anymore. A part of the decision on who is going to be your chiropractor is of course the cost. My experience has been that no chiropractor who is any good every promises a quick cure. Each of the problems I was treated for took a minimum of 6-8 visits and at present I can see that it will probably be a lot more than that. But because the results are so impressive and I feel so much better I am prepared for that side of it. Being able to move freely with reduced or zero pain levels is quite a life improver. The whole experience, despite the Corvid times we live in, was backed up by the helpful front office and excellent attitude. Would I recommend this chiropractor? Absolutely. read more

The first time I went to Dr. D. it was simply because he was the closest who had an appointment right away because I was in some serious pain. I keep going back because he's great! All it takes is one appointment and you can tell this guy knows what he's doing. Because of his help, it's been over a year since I have had any lower back problems. I'm back in again, but only because I was stupid. He is currently stretching me out and putting my spine back where it's supposed to be. Compared to the last incident, this one wasn't nearly as bad pain-wise and I have gotten over the painful aspects a lot faster. Now it's just some tightness, so I'll keep going until that's gone, and then a few more adjustments just to be sure. I made it over a year since the last bad problem with my back, and I'm hoping that if I keep doing the stretches he has me doing, and, you know, not be stupid; it'll be even longer between this one and the next one; or maybe there won't even be a next one. I know I couldn't have gotten this fixed without help, and I'm really glad I lucked out in finding him. Thanks Dr. D. read more

For full disclosure, I want you to know that Dr D'Souza is my younger brother. I live in NY, but I use his services every chance I get. I am his brother but I am also his toughest critic. He has proven over the years that he is an exceptional Chiropractor. I know you will think I am biased, but let me tell you my two stories and you can decide for yourselves. A few years back, I had a trigger finger (a condition in which one of your fingers gets stuck in a bent position). My primary doctor told me that I would have to have minor surgery to repair this. I really didn't want any type of surgery so I put it off. When I spoke to Ken, he mentioned that he could help by using the Graston Technique. After a couple sessions, I was able open and close the finger with no problems. He is also a nutritionist and helped me get healthier and lose 5 lbs. It doesn't seem like a lot, but the last few pounds are always the hardest. He helped me with vitamins and pointing out some of my bad habits. read more

My 11yr old son woke up yesterday morning after a weekend of 6 lacrosse games with a stiff neck. He could hardly turn to the right and was in some significant pain. After a few recommendations from friends I called Dr. D'Souza's chiropractic office Balance 4 Life at 9am when they opened. After explaining the pain my son was in they were able to get us a new patient appointment within a few hours. Dr. D'Souza explained everything he did thoroughly and was very patient and kind. He listened to my concerns and was helpful and willing to take the time to address them. I did not feel rushed in any way. I am happy to report that after a 2nd visit today my son's neck is back to normal. His pain is gone and he is able to turn his head comfortably. Thank you Dr. D'Souza!! We will be returning. Check him out if you need a chiropractor you won't be disappointed. read more

Dr. D. Is Amazing, we started going to see him about 7 years ago. We first when in because my wife was having issues with her elbow. She had suffered from fibromyalgia for years starting at a young age and was looking at getting surgery for it. Dr. D. pointed out that she had inflammation (which we already knew) and suggested we do an "Alcat" food allergy protocol. Long story short, we did the protocol and it healed her Fibromyalgia and literally changed my wife's life. The protocol also cleared up fertility issues we were having (also due to inflammation). No we have two healthy kids that we don't have to raise with Fibro. We went in for elbow pain and came out with a new life. Dr. D. is nothing short of a miracle worker and we count our blessings that he was in the right place with the right solutions when we needed him most. Thank you Dr. D.! read more

Dr. D'Souza really listens to your concerns. He is very conservative with treatment. I've never felt unnecessary appointments were recommended. If anything Dr. D'Souza recommends complementary therapies in order to keep you from having to see him as much. Travis is very accomodating. I often get unexpected "flair ups" and Travis would do his best to get me in as soon as possible. Elizabeth is the most wonderful massage therapist EVER. They are truly genuine people that I completely trust. I just can't say enough about the excellent care that I've received! read more

I have never been to a chiropractor before going to balance 4 life. When I went I was having severe back and neck pains to the point that I was not sleeping well and in pain throughout most of the day. When I call they got me in immediately took the time to explain what was going on and how to fix it. After first visit back pain was completely gone. My neck took a couple visit to get right but decreased ever time. I plan on keeping me visit on a regular bases now to keep from being in pain like that again. Highly recommend. read more

Dr. Ken D'Souza is a warm, cheerful man who genuinely cares about each and every patient. He excels at chiropractic manipulation for achy backs and muscles. He helped me with chronic shoulder joint pain as well as plantar fasciitis. Dr.Ken is a specialist in dietary problems and their resolution. I recommend Dr. D'Souza to anyone who suffers from aches and pains of everyday life as well as aging situations. He treats the whole body and just makes you feel better after each visit.

You will be glad you did!!!! read more

I have been going for about a year. Before I moved here and started with Dr. D'Souza I was in near constant pain and was being evaluated for cervical spine surgery. After 2 visits my pain was nearly gone. I go every 2-4 weeks as needed and I rarely have any discomfort, but if I do 1 visit and I am back hiking & kayaking pain free. I was a long time skeptic of chiropractics. I am now a believer thanks to Balance 4 Life. read more
