After years of reliance on my right arm and shoulder for carrying heavy things, I began to notice a dull ache in my shoulder and some nerve pain beginning to travel down my arm. I decided to get x-rays and an evaluation from Annex Family Chiropractic in order to determine the cause and whether or not chiropractic adjustments would address the issue. As it turns out, the spinal adjustments did resolve the aches and pains in short order. Not only that, but other neurological benefits have begun to emerge from the treatment, which could be generally described as a greater sense of wellbeing and cognitive clarity as I approach other activities such as yoga and music. If you are thinking about chiropractic care, don’t hesitate to try this gentle and holistic approach. Thank you for your insight into the spine and it’s far-reaching effects on how we feel and how we function.
I suffered from low back pain for a long time, and the pandemic made it even worse. I had a herniated disc causing pain to shoot from my lower back down my right leg. Despite trying various therapies—chiropractic, acupuncture, trigger point therapy, osteopathy, massage, Lidocaine injections, and fascial stretch therapy—nothing provided lasting relief. I hadn’t had a good night's sleep in over two years. My first appointment with Dr. Gelber was thorough and consultative, reviewing my health journey and discussing my path to recovery. After just my second adjustment, the pain disappeared like flipping a switch. Dr. Gelber has been crucial in restoring my mobility and changing my life. It’s incredible how much we take simple movements for granted until they’re restricted. Dr. Gelber and Grace clearly have a genuine passion for their work and care deeply for their patients. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking relief and improved quality of life.
They are super friendly and very nice and they helped me a lot. I will recommend to everyone and they really want to help people and are also very economical.
My experience with Dr. Gelber was great! He helped me work through all my aches and pains. He helped me to choose an appropriate office chair when COVID hit and working from home became full time. During my pregnancy, he ensured my adjustments were safe and recommended additional exercises to address my hip pain. I'd recommend him any day!
When I first came to Dr. Gelber I was immediately impressed with his approach. I was pleasantly surprised to see how much time and attention he placed on properly assessing the body before treating. He integrates scanning technology that gave me clear metrics for establishing my baseline, goals and for tracking progress. As someone who’s results focused I really appreciated this. I’ve also enjoyed the educational component to his process. Emails with informational videos and personal anecdotes of his chiropractic experience has been incredibly helpful and interesting. I’ve learned so much about chiropractic and myself! Coming in for my adjustments was so easy and I was in and out in minutes. I never felt like just a number however, as I was always greeted with a warm smile from both his receptionist Grace and Dr. Gelber. Dr. Gelber is an exceptional Chiropractor. As a colleague I admire his integrity and commitment to client care. His careful attention to detail, professionalism, welcoming disposition and tireless drive for excellence makes him someone I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to my friends, family and clients.
FOLLOW -UP TO ORIGINAL REVIEW: Latest MRI indicated that previous diagnosed cervical stenosis has increased. Dr Josh upon reviewing results adjusted my treatment plan accordingly. This has resulted in a dramatic decrease in neck pain, no more numbness and tingling in arms and hands. Best Chiropractor in Toronto. As a teenager and young adult I was involved very much in the martial arts, extreme sports and just misadventures without realizing at the time how much damage was being done to my body. About 10 years ago when I was 45 , I was diagnosed with chronic pain disorder and placed on a disability pension. I was given oxycodone for pain relief and tried many different modalities of both conventional and natural healthcare with minimal results overall. I started treatments with Dr. Gelber about 3 months ago and have experienced an amazing positive change in my overall health. Not only, for the first time in 10 years, my pain level has been quite low but also when I do have a pain flair up or re-injure myself It takes much less time to recover. Moreover, my overall outlook on life and my bodily systems are much more alive and I feel the healing of dis-ease leaving my body as well as dormant nerve endings being stimulated so that this state of homeostasis is being maintained on a permanent basis. I have also been weening off opiates for a more natural approach and the chiropractic treatments have been helping with the withdrawal symptoms. Dr. Gelber, is a true healer in every aspect and his approach to chiropractic care and over all healthy life style management for each individual patient is unique and extremely effective. Unlike most conventional medical personnel, Dr. Gelber believes that the patient plays a major role in his/her healing process and always discusses and shows you evidence of your healing progression from your initial visit and onward. His healing techniques do not just mask the issues or just treat the signs and symptoms of pain and discomfort but actually stimulate the nerves that in turn heal the cause of the pain as well as maintaining the body systems in top condition. His office is very modern and each patient has their own electronic card to sign in with and to bring up their file for Dr. Gelber to access quickly so the wait and treatment time is very short. I must also mention his assistant Grace who is very personable and keeps the office running efficiently. I would highly recommend Dr. Gelber for anyone who takes their healthcare seriously and no longer wants to live in pain or dis-ease.
UPDATE 2023! It's been over 9 years since I posted my original review below, how time flies! I have now been going to Dr. Josh every three weeks for over a decade, and can confidently say that my consistent commitment to chiropractic treatments from Dr. Josh is the reason I live pain free today. The fact that I have continued to visit Dr. Josh, even though I have slowly moved further and further away from his clinic since I started my chiropractic care with him, is a true testament to how much he has improved my quality of life! ORIGINAL REVIEW FROM 2014: I used to not be able to move due to terrible lower back pain that I had for years. Laying down, standing up, walking... everything was painful. I had been to other chiropractors in the past but I never experienced relief from visiting them. Then I found Dr. Gelber and after a few months of treatment I found a dramatic change in my pain level. And now after a year and a half of treatments I feel no pain at all! I am so happy with the change I have seen and felt. Thank you Dr. Gelber! :)
