Louis Granirer

As many others have explained, I had struggled with digestive issues for years. I saw doctor after doctor who had diagnosed me with IBS, to possible Crohn’s, you name it, I had it and I had a different medication to treat it. With all of these medications came terrible and unwanted side effects and they also only helped me about 75%. I was still experiencing debilitating pain that was keeping me from work and affecting my social life.
It was one glorious day when a visit to Dr. G changed my life forever. I was referred by a friend of mine from work, who had similar issues and had seen Dr. G a couple of weeks prior. We went to dinner and she had a couple of dietary restrictions which led me to ask a ton of questions. :) The result was her explaining that she had never felt so good in her life and that this was the first doctor who made her symptoms basically vanish. I was skeptical and reluctant, but after hearing her make such a bold statement, I was also curious (and in pain) so of course I had to give it a shot!
The rest as they say is history. I met with Dr. G who was attentive and completely understanding of every symptom I was feeling. I was not confident that after all the doctors I had seen for so many years that he would be the one to help me, but he was positive, upbeat and confident from the first few minutes of my session that he would. He explained that we would develop a treatment based on finding the source of the problem and doing what we could to correct it, instead of trying to ‘treat’ symptoms. He could not have been more right on and thus was the start of my journey to better health and wellness.
Over two years later I am still seeing Dr. G and I am doing amazingly well. My energy levels are better, my anxiety has subsided and most importantly I have no more stomach pain/​digestive issues. It has not been an easy road, but as I say to all my friends and family who ask, it was completely worth every second. Dr. G has really been a life-​changer, his techniques are simple but make sense and have provided me with the long awaited relief my body has needed. Thank you more than I can ever express Dr. G! If you are out there and feeling the same, as my 5 stars suggest, I could not recommend anyone better in NYC.

Dr. Granirer is simply AMAZING… when you think of a chiropractor some people just think about bones cracking — harsh! With Dr. Granirer he implements subtle techniques that really don’t even ‘feel’ like he’s doing anything sometimes, but I always leave feeling transformed.
I highly recommend his Nutrition Response Therapy Evaluation. I had been suffering from an ‘Auto-​Immune’ condition and had been mis-​diagnosed by several Western MD’s as having Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis… Dr. G was able to identify several factors such as heavy metal toxicity, fungus, gluten and solanine (a neuro-​toxin found in nightshade vegetables) as major factors affecting the proper functioning of certain organs and overall health.
His appointment scheduling is pretty rigid and you must be on time — always give yourself an extra 10 – 15 minutes to get there and into the building (especially with NYC MTA issues) as you have to show your ID and then wait for the elevator… better to be early because his sessions are 20min and if you’re late, you will miss out on your treatment.

Dr. Lou is not just a chiropractor — he is a true healer. I have been seeing him for about 8 years and he deals with my worst neck and back pain. Also, he’s not one of those chiropractors who has you come in twice a week for months.
I recommend him without reservation!

I’ve known Dr. Granirer for over 15 yrs. now. He has helped me with several food allergies and physical misalignments. The best thing about it… he suggested a bunch of supplements by doing muscle testing on me and in just 6 months my body healed enough that I was able to eat those foods again. Sure… the speed of the healing was great but what I really liked is that I only had to see him, and buy the supplements, TWO times. None of this seeing him dozens of times over several years and spending big $$$ on the extras.
I find the space relaxing, his staff very welcoming and pleasan, t and Dr. Granirer is nearly encyclopedic when answering a question.
I send many of my own clients to see him and they too have nothing but rave reviews.
The World is a better place having him in it! Thank you Dr. G.

I’ve had a lot of mystery ailments over the years — the kinds of issues that western medicine hadn’t been able to reach. Believe me, I tried… I am the opposite of hippie woo-​woo. I like numbers and facts and science. Tell me about my blood values! It’s good reading!
I spent about 20 years unable to eat many types of foods without experiencing cystic acne, digestive upheaval, and heavy brain fog and lethargy (like «can’t get off the couch or hold down a job for three months» bad). At various points, I couldn’t eat the following foods without some fairly extreme symptoms: gluten, dairy, corn, soy, sugar, alcohol, caffeine, nightshades. I was so sensitive that I got dizzy and nauseated walking through the bread aisle of the supermarket. In a word or two: It sucked. Not recommended!
Over the last two decades, I have seen a bunch of different kinds of healthcare practitioners in the quest to heal my poor messed-​up body, and all of them have helped in one way or another. Dr. Granirer is one of those helpers. Through a combination of nutritional supplements and dietary tweaks, I now have a lot more energy AND can eat everything on the above list except dairy (that’s been a lifelong problem, so I don’t anticipate that changing anytime soon). Let me repeat that: I CAN EAT NEARLY ANYTHING I WANT WITHOUT REPERCUSSIONS. This is lifechanging! I still have some of the health problems I walked into his office with, but they are the kind that will take a lot more time to heal. I’m working on them with Dr. G and a couple of other healthcare practitioners. In the meantime, I’m going to go eat a bagel and contemplate how great it is to be able to feel much more at home in my body. Dr. G, this whole wheat toasted with peanut butter is for you!

I went to Louis Granirer as did others in my family. I experienced that he gives advice without proper regard to larger medical issues. I experienced that his advice exacerbated a situation. I have witnessed the harmful effects of his nutritional advice, which ran counter to medical advice and caused significant setbacks to a condition. I experienced that he strings the patient along, saying that one has to keep coming back and keep coming back, and buy more and more and more nutritional supplements. He does not bother to consider how these nutritional supplements might interact with a person’s larger physical health or actual medical protocol. I strongly advise everyone to stay far away from his practice. I wish I could give negative stars for the negative impact he caused.

Dr. Granirer is fabulous! I have been seeing him for over 2.5 years for chiropractic care and nutrition for almost a year. My Chiropractor from VA recommended Dr. Granirer because they have similar techniques. And though I have moved back to VA — I still make the trip to NYC to see him for Chiro and NRT. In fact I saw my former Chiropractor recently and he said — «hey whatever this guy is doing — keep doing it». For me the Chiro and NRT have gone hand in hand. It has changed my body, how I feel, and it has been worth the journey. Thank you Dr. Granirer for making a difference in my life! I couldn’t have done it without you.

Dr. Lou is a master diagnostician. I went to him with back pain thinking it was muscular when in fact I was suffering from adrenal fatigue. I had no idea. He suggested a supplement régime and lifestyle changes that helped get me out of pain and back to living with renewed energy. He is also a great guy.

I’ve been going to Dr. Lou for over 7 years and he has helped me out tremendously. He is very knowledgeable in chiropractic services as well as in holistic nutrition and healing, both of which he’s aided me in.
Every time I go to see Dr. Lou, he’s all about me. He really wants to understand what’s been going on with me (since my last visit) and how I am feeling. I know that is how he is with everyone who visits him. It’s in his empathetic nature to want to know his patients prior to getting into the remedy. I know this because I’ve recommended several people to Dr. Lou over the years and they’ve all told me so. Dr. Lou also wants to understand your medical history and any medications you are taking. He takes all this information into consideration when prescribing holistic medicine. On one occasion I remember he wanting to prescribe me something, but wanted me to check with my Internist prior to starting the régime to make sure it didn’t react negatively with one of my regularly prescribed medicines.
I’ve been extremely happy going to Dr. Lou over the years and recommend anyone seek him out if ever the need for traditional chiropractic needs or holistic nutrition and/​or healing.

I have been going to Dr. Lou for years and no matter what the problem is he fixes it! He is very knowledgeable, kind and has great energy. I have referred several friends to him who have all had positive experiences and continue to see him. I would highly recommend Dr. Lou to anyone seeking holistic chiropractor care — you will feel better!

Dr. Granirer has changed my life!!! I was suffering for about a year and a half with digestive issues and other ailments causing me and my life major distress. I went to several different doctors and had my blood taken many times– no one could find anything.
Then someone recommended Dr. Granirer. They said he is a miracle worker. I was ready to try anything at that point. THANKFULLY I DID! Through his holistic technique– muscle testing, nutrition and herbal supplements, I immediately saw everything start to change. I was feeling better, had more energy and found out about the toxins that were in my body. I also found out what foods were causing me serious inflammation and causing certain negative reactions in my body. In just a few months I was cleared of parasites, candida and other toxins that I had no idea could be in someone’s body! I felt like I got my life back. Although I was completely better in just a few months, I continued to see Dr. Granirer for almost 2 years just to keep my body in balance and if I didn’t move to California, I would still be seeing him every so often.
In just 1 visit, Dr. Granirer will discover exactly what your body has that is bringing it out of balance and the specific protocol to take to produce the fastest results. I have recommended him to several friends who have all had a positive life changing experience.
I am so grateful for Dr. Granirer. Seeing him was the best decision I ever made for my health, wellbeing and happiness!
Ps. His staff is also amazing! They really know what they’re talking about and were a great support team during my healing process.

Dr. Lou G is fantastic. Ive seen him for years for both NRT and chiro. Ive sent over 10 friends to him and they all feel better after his care. It’s a process that you must commit to with all the herbs and visits, but it’s worth the time and effort to clean your house!

I went to my previous chiropractor for 8 years. He was getting out of the game and Dr. Granirer was one of the two people he referred me to to continue my care. In 2006 my sacrum went out when I came out of a yoga pose too quickly. It has gone out since then but that was not what brought me to Dr. Granirer-​I was having pretty significant neck discomfort on my left side and some back pain.
I made an appointment and filled out a pretty extensive medical history and talked to him about what was going on. My previous Chiropractor did a good job but definitely did not have the same approach-​Dr. Granirer assesses using a kinesology approach and does multiple adjustments based on his findings.
I mentioned I didn’t think I was sleeping as well as I could and I thought my pillow was to blame. He sold me a temper-​pedic pillow and I was a little wary this would be a gateway to buying who knows what else BUT the third night with the pillow (after we figured out which side/​section I should sleep on) was one of the best nights of sleep I have had in awhile.
I also liked that after my third appointment he said I am going to have you come back in but after that if things seem to be holding there isn’t any reason for you to come in for awhile. (this seems to be the polar opposite of many other people I have visited)
The office is easy to get to and the staff is really pleasant.

I was tired of going to chiropractors that just wanted your $. A co-​worker recommended him to me and I made an appt. I was pleasantly surprised by his staff and his care. He explained to me the cause of my discomfort and I knew that he genuinely cared about his patients. Not only did he help my back, but this man CURED ME! He introduced to me Muscle Testing. I wasn’t convinced, but willing to try it. I had been suffering from some «female issues» for some time. I went to my doctor and I was prescribed drugs which had side effects, which in turn needed other drugs. I was stuck in this medicinal cycle. Since seeing Dr. Granirer (and it has been years), I have not had any of those issues and I’ve been medicine free!!! I’m a true believer, he can help you. It’s amazing! Unfortunately I moved out of the city and I can’t see him anymore :-(

I found this place on Unilocal!He and his staffs are so welcoming.
I sit at in the office all days and sometimes my neck and shoulder gets so tight it kills me. Dr. Granirer diagnosed me by muscle testing, and found my weakness spot on! Also he spotted that my left leg is actually shorter than my right leg!
I have been back to him 3 times now and believe after a few more treatment, my symptoms will go away!

I was referred to Dr. Granirer by a fantastic doctor in Boulder, CO and upon meeting Dr. Granirer could see immediately why he was so highly recommended. He has a deep understanding of the body and is a master at both the chiropractic and nutrition aspects of his practice.
I had been having chest pain for 9 months and had recently been diagnosed as having costochondritis, which doctors said could only been treated with anti-​infalmmatories and not cured. Dr. Granirer worked at the problem from both a nutritional and a structural angle and after one month, the pain was completely gone and has not returned in the 3 months since.
I have always had a horrible immune system and would get sick when the wind blew. I have heard many reasons as to why it was so bad and tried all the immune-​boosters available. Dr. Granirer, through muscle testing, found the root of the problem and after a cleanse (or two) I haven’t gotten sick at all, even with the seasons changing.
I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Granirer. He is a genius at what he does and is a wonderful, kind person. I am truly grateful to him for helping me be the healthiest person I can be!

Let me begin this review with a few key pieces of information…
1) I was a chiropractic NON-​believer
2) My family is heavily populated with doctors… very skeptical about chiropractic treatment, and quality of care.
3) Desperation led me to the chiropractor.
Over the past few years, I had started to notice a «crick» in my neck… at first I thought it was because I had slept funny, or something, but when it started showing up more regularly (almost monthly for a few days at a time), and for no particular reason, I knew I had an issue. However, I chose to ignore this issue. I have a high pain tolerance, and can be very stoic in some situations, this being one. BUT… when the worst instance of said neck-​crick showed up the day before I was supposed to drive to Cape Cod (5 hours that became 9!), and I couldn’t even turn my head, I knew I was screwed! I was walking around my office, kinda looking like Joan Cusack in 16 Candles in her back brace… I couldn’t turn my head in either direction, and was in pain. My colleague said, why don’t you go to the chiropractor… there is one down the hall, see if they can squeeze you in. I was skeptical but in no position to be… so I scurried down the hall, and kindness of all kindnesses, they squeezed me in that afternoon for a quick treatment, and another the next morning before the road trip. Dr. Granirer said… you won’t be perfect, but you will be much improved, and you will feel better.
That was in early August 2010.
It is now the end of April 2011, and I am still without problem… he fixed me! No medicine, no X-​rays, no MRIs, no unnecessary treatments.
Needless to say, I am now a believer!
Aside from all this stuff… he is nice, pleasant, friendly, and seemingly a straight-​shooter.
(I just hope I didn’t jinx myself with this review! Sore neck… stay away! and if you don’t I’ll take you to Dr. Granirer to banish you again…)
