Michael Dardano

Dr. Mike is my choice chiropractor and holistic doctor in New York City. It’s not often that you find those two disciplines expertly rolled into one package! He’s helped me with building my energy and immune system; something that’s very important for a massage therapist who sees and does manual bodywork on many people a day!
I’m also impressed with how gentle his bone adjustments can be. I’m mortally terrified of having my neck snapped off, but he has a way of making you feel very comfortable as he manipulates the body for realignment. Two thumbs up for that!

I think Dr. Dardano may be a miracle worker. I went to see him after experiencing various mysterious health issues for about a year and a half. I had already sought help from countless healthcare providers, including 3 different naturopaths, 2 M.D.‘s, several acupuncturists, endocrinologists, and chiropractors, and had had multiple blood tests done for everything from hypothyroidism to malaria. Despite making every effort to find a diagnosis, none of the practitioners I saw were able to tell me what might be wrong, and all test results came back as «normal».
At my first appointment with Dr. Dardano I was charmed by his friendly, upbeat personality and his calm and serene treatment space. While explaining my symptoms, Dr. Dardano listened carefully and patiently, and when I was done talking, without missing a beat, he gave me a diagnosis. Dr. Dardano then explained how my symptoms lined up and prescribed 2 very gentle homeopathic remedies. He also gave me realistic dietary guidelines to follow to help clear out my system.
After following the treatment, my symptoms slowly went away and I gradually started to feel like myself again which feels like a huge victory and relief.
I’ve since been back to Dr. Dardano many times since my first visit and he has always treated me with respect and care, and provided knowledgeable and thorough diagnosis and treatment. His methods are sometimes unorthodox, but make sense when understanding that he treats the body, mind and spirit as an interconnected unit. I heartily recommend him as someone who will adequately address and treat your health issues, and help you find more balance.

I can’t say enough about what Dr. Mike Dardano has been able to do for me. Shortly after my 25^th birthday, I came down with a debilitating digestive disease. For two and a half years I traveled to every top gastroenterologist in New York City and Long Island. I saw countless doctors and specialists. I traveled to DC to visit one of the best parasitology labs in the country. No one could figure out what was wrong with me. After rounds of antibiotics, diets and other strong prescriptions and supplements, I was in the worst condition of my life. I was developing food allergies and rashes now. I was exhausted and couldn’t get myself to work. Anything I ate made me terribly sick. And all the side effects from the conventional medicines added 35 pounds onto my frame. It was awful. That’s when I came to this site and looked for alternative treatments on Unilocal.Despite my skepticism, I had no other options after two and a half years. I found Dr. Dardano, saw all the reviews here and sent him a desperate email on a Saturday. He got back to me on Sunday. By that Tuesday in June, I was in his office.
It’s now March. I’m down 50 pounds. I feel better than I have in three years. I got a promotion at work. Things are great and I credit him for all of it. I was a skeptic, but now I will never return to conventional medicine. Dr. Mike guided me and treated me every week during the loneliest and most difficult point in my life when every doctor told me they couldnt do anything for me and that I’d have to get used to living that way.
I’m not yet 100%, but I’m getting my life back for the first time in years and I thank him for giving it back to me. Go see him!

I came to Dr. Dardano seeking an alternative way to regulate my period, which has been a lifelong struggle for me. First of all let me just say that upon our initial consultation, Dr. Dardano asked me if I was meeting with him because of my reproductive system before he even read my questionnaire! I had been on birth control for most of my life and had stopped taking it mostly because I lead a very healthy lifestyle and want to be on as little medicine as possible. Dr. Dardano recommended two homeopathic solutions to take and within 2 weeks — amazingly I got my period and about a month later again! To most women this is very normal but let me stress that without the use of birth control I would get my period 1 to 2 times a YEAR. Along with my period, however, came some really bad cramps and miraculous Dr. Dardano has helped me with those as well. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Dardano to anyone who is looking for an alternative way to heal. To say he has a pleasant bedside manner would be an understatement. He thoroughly explains his diagnosis, his course for treatment and I am always appreciative that he consistently runs on schedule.

Say yes to holistic health doctors… why? because they work! Dr. Dardano has this ability to heal and is caring, thoughtful and works with a level of professionalism that makes you know you are in the right hands. His expertise and knowledge about issues helps you feel comfortable that while it is alternative and holistic wellness it certainly has a place in the medical field and really DOES WORK! I feel so much better and calm and relaxation and and and and and AND!!! the list could go on. THANK YOU! I highly recommend seeing him and visiting the beautiful wellness center he works at.

Dr. Dardano has changed my life. For years now I have been having weight issues as well as an understanding that my body wasn’t healthy, something wasn’t in balance. I’ve been to holistic specialists, my primary medical doctor, physical therapists, personal trainers, all in the hope to pin-​point my digestion problems, my low energy and lethargy as well as my dependence on sugar.
When I first walked into Dr. Mike’s office, I sat down and we spoke about my concerns and worries. He truly listened to me; not just what I said but during that first session he listened to what my physical body had to say, it spoke to him. He has a gift of understanding the human body like no one I have ever met before. Through the different services he offers he has helped to direct my body, mind and spirit along a much more balanced path.
Dr. Mike is friendly and has a calming spirit as well as a warm smile that puts you at ease in his presence. My sugar dependence as well as my digestion issues are under control and I am continuing to work with him towards a healthier me. He has even inspired me to take a free nutrition course to better educate myself about the choices I am making. I can’t say enough about Dr. Mike but you won’t truly understand the amazing effect he can have on you until you see him yourself and then you’ll be a believer for life… like me.

I’ve been going to see Dr. Dardano since May of 2011 and I’ve been going back ever since. Wether it’s for nutrition, or neck/​back pain, he has helped reduce my pains and helped with my chakra. I’ve also been able to become healthier with all the natural supplements that he has perscribed me. I feel great and I thank him for it. I wouldn’t know what to do without him! Addicted to seeing my favorite doctor in the world! He is the one doctor that I’m willing to go to and happy to see!

The first time I went to his office was right after I came back from my work assignment to cover the earthquake in Fukushima, Japan. At that time, my health was at the lowest level. I took a blood test before the assignment which showed no signs of health issues. But when I came back from Japan and had a test, I wasn’t pleased by the result. Physically my energy level was so low, my immunity was low, and I had some infections because of my low immunity. (my thyroid issue came back as well) I went to Dr. Mike’s office for foot bath detox treatment because I was worried that my health condition was a result from radiation exposure in Japan and wanted to detox my body. What we saw in the foot bath was a lot of black powdery stuff floating. We both knew I needed a serious treatment.
I believe in holistic approach when it comes to health (or everything in life actually). The problem to me for holistic approach was I had to go to different places to get different treatments I wanted. Chiropractic adjustment, reiki session, homeopathy, chakra balancing, etc. It’s very costly… But Dr. Mike does everything above! He understands health issues are resulted from physical, emotional, and environmental imbalance. His treatments focus not only on physical imbalance but emotional imbalance as well. I always find myself leaving his office happy and clear minded.
After several visits to his office, my energy level was changed (of course much better), the black stuff in the foot bath was diminished, and I feel healthier than ever. Yes, I did a blood test. Everything was back to normal.
I have tried many reiki sessions with different practitioners and different alternative medicine treatments, including kinesiology, but his skills are exceptional. I haven’t had a single visit to my western medicine doctor (except for the annual blood test) since I met Dr. Mike. The greatest thing about him is he is a caring, positive, and happy person, which is very important when we get energy work.
I highly recommend him :)
