  • "Jason Potash is an outstanding chiropractor. My appointments with him were crucial in overcoming a bout of sciatica that I had. He listened with empathy and understanding to me, developed a treatment plan and made adjustments with care and precision. As someone who had little experience with chiropractic adjustment, I was a bit nervous and apprehensive. Jason worked to make me comfortable as he explained the adjustments that he was making. He also gave me a series of exercises to do at home that helped me tremendously. I will definitely go back to Jason and have already recommended him to several friends." - Ben S.

  • "After X-rays of my painful left hip showed nothing of a skeletal origin, my primary care physician sent me to Jason Potash to have him apply his skills to my condition. I'd never been to a chiropractor before and didn't know what to expect. When I met Jason he'd already read the results of the X-ray and went to work on the muscular aspect. He began by observing me walk down the corridor outside his office and concluded an imbalance in my stride attributed to a deep tightness surrounding the hip joint, Over the course of four sessions he applied his skills at loosening, manipulating, and adjusting my hip. I quickly realized I was in the hands of a skilled practitioner. I'm grateful that my bothersome hip issue is much reduced and enthusiastically recommend him to others." - Phil C
