Veech Sports Chiropractic

After 7 sessions with Dr. Veech, I can only say that each 5-​star review is completely merited. I’m always astonished by how much better I feel after visiting Dr. Veech; he is simply the best.
The active release technique he uses is similar to a targeted massage. Not only has he fixed the neck and hip problems I initially went in for, but he’s also improved the range of motion I need for dance (something I didn’t think was possible after age 14) and the stability I need for weightlifting. As others have mentioned, Dr. Veech’s goal is to address his patients’ issues in as few treatments as possible, and he never pushes chiropractic adjustments or anything else you may be uncomfortable with. On top of his technical proficiency, he’s also very professional and caring, and genuinely fun to talk to. Go see Dr. Veech — whether for sports-​related or desk-​job-​related injuries.

I found Dr. Veech through Unilocal as I was at the time in search of a new chiropractor. i’ve been dealing with consistent neck and shoulder pain since high school which neither physical therapy nor months and months of chiropractic treatment with someone else could fix permanently. i had begun to lose hope that perhaps i’d just have to deal with it forever. because of this and the multiple empty reassurances from my former chiropractor, i had begun to think that chiropractors are scams (they promise you’ll feel better EVENTUALLY and make you keep going back consistently with little to no result or sign of significant change).
i went in for an initial visit with Dr. Veech a week ago and even from the first 5 – 10 minutes of my visit/​consultation, i could tell Dr. Veech was different than most other chiropractors. he asked questions to prompt me to give him as much information as i could about what bothered me and even though i was terrible at explaining, he knew what to do/​try. he is extremely thorough and knowledgeable i could tell from all of the complicated stretches. he is extremely upfront with his patients and if he feels like he can’t help you, he won’t try to extort money from you, instead he will refer you to someone else. he also states that his goal is to get patients to start feeling better as soon as possible so they need to go in less often! i can tell from this that he cares more about the wellness of each of his patients rather than just earning money from them every week. another thing unique about Dr. Veech is his active release technique is a mixture of intense massage and chiropractic stuff. it requires special outside training and not many are qualified to do it. if you’re looking to just get your back and neck cracked for no reason, don’t come here. what Dr. Veech will actually do is do a series of muscle stretches and manipulations, he knows where to apply pressure and how to tell you to move to get a good stretch to that area. he still does realignment but only if necessary unlike some chiropractors who will try to fool patients into thinking they’re doing something substantial.
Dr. Veech is an extremely open and friendly guy and i was immediately put to ease by talking to him. no part of the appointment was awkward or uncomfortable; he is extremely professional but also very personable and funny. in addition, it is super easy to schedule an appointment with him. he responds very frequently to his emails and was able to schedule me in in the first 2 days of the week after i had emailed him over the weekend. if you are suffering from an ailment no PT or chiropractor can fix, i would highly recommend giving Dr. Veech a chance. he has renewed my faith in honest chiropractors and has given me a better outlook with the things i’m dealing with! trust me!

I found Dr. Veech three months into training for the NYC Marathon. I had developed bad IT band pain and after my first session of active release therapy (focusing on tightness in my hips) I felt much better. I was able to complete my long runs pain free and scheduled bi-​weekly sessions with him up until to the marathon. Dr. Veech was extremely attentive and thorough during each session and always followed up a few days later to see how I was feeling. I owe a successful marathon finish to him and his amazing treatment.

Dr. Veech really listens to you, is very kind and then spends the time to explain what he is doing. In the first session, the hip related pain i was having was greatly reduced. I really appreciate his no-​nonsense style and i am now a big fan of Active Release Technique. I plan on going back for a tune-​up!

Unfortunately, the majority of PTs and Chiros are complete frauds who don’t know how or care to help you but want to run your insurance bill up. I went two two physical therapists and one chiropractor before coming to Dr. Veech for my shoulder and neck pain. Even though I was with them for months, veech was able to get me back in the gym in about 5 sessions. I am now slowly working my shoulder back to its original strength and have made decent progress.
Dr veech is a very knowledgable Chiro who is not just looking to run your insurance up. He has a great understanding of the body and he is even easy to talk to! He is not like your typical chiro/​PT and if you’re really looking to get help, you’re better off saving your time and coming to a true professional like Dr veech.

Dr. Andrew is the BEST!
I was visiting from Atlanta during Christmas week and he squeezed me in and did magic on my legs!
Caring and professional

Dr. Veech is one of the best I’ve ever met. I chose to see him after seeing the phenomenal reviews. One of the best parts is his honesty. After an assessment and treatment he told me that my issue would be best seen by an orthopedist and sent me a referral. There are many dishonest chiropractors who make you come back repeatedly for their own profit while not getting to the root cause. It has happened to me and family members in the past. Dr. Veech has a genuine concern for getting to the root cause instead of endless treatment. I’m glad that I came to him to for professional advice rather than get caught up in the run around.
His treatment works well too. After seeing him it did help with the pain. It’s like a targeted hard-​massage that loosens up tightness. He also thoroughly explains what he is doing. My insurance did not cover, however based on the great reviews I decided to still see him rather than waste money with a lousy chiro. I have no regrets! Will definitely refer friends and family!

I found Dr. Veech after doing a search for doctors in NYC who specialize in active release technique. I have seen him numerous times, and his work is amazing. Due to my job as a tattoo artist, I incur lots of back and hip pain. Dr. Veech explained how the bulk of my issues arise from my hips, and proceeds to work out all the muscle groups that are bothersome. I noticed immediate results after my first session. The sessions are pretty intense, but it is well worth it.
For anyone with muscle pain, I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Veech.

The reviews are all true. I had neck pain for a solid month and had tried everything and Andrew fixed it in one session. I do not generally go to Chiropractor’s and have a real fear of them due to a prior injury but I was desperate when I ended up in Andrews office. Best decision ever. Andrew does active muscle release which is a technique which is more like a aggressive targeted massage and it works. I am now hooked as is my husband. I actually go there now instead of for a massage because I know I will be more relaxed after as it is targeted. For people who are at a desk all day typing or constantly on plane Andrew can make you feel normal again. He is the best!

Andrew is truly a life saver. I’ve always been hesitant to visit a chiropractor as I am not comfortable with the cracking. I visited Andrew several times over the last couple months and I have left each session with huge improvements, each better than the last. Andrew uses very different techniques which target the specific pain area (in my case, my neck and upper back) and focuses on applying the right amount of pressure to individual vertebrae that somehow managed to completely alleviate all of my pain.
I will definitely be returning if I have any more issues in the future and highly recommend Andrew to anyone who has pain and is looking for a solution.

Andrew is amazing amazing amazing. I went to another chiropractor that I found on Unilocal because he was first on the list… Big mistake, did nothing for me. I decided to try Dr. Veech out to see if he could help with my lower back, elbow, knee and hip problems (I am a bodybuilder btw) so as Andrew said I’m jacked up. I setup the appointment through email and went to see him on a Saturday morning and I have never felt better, I can honestly say I have no pain, I have not felt this way since I was a teenager. This man has magical hands and he is a great talker, if you need a chiropractor go see him hands down.

Andrew Veech is the real deal. He is focusing on what actually works, and, if you’re like me, you won’t need to go back very often.
He’s not a bone cracking guy. It’s more about understanding which muscle is messing you up and he pushes it until it surrenders.
I had debilitating back pain for 6 weeks. In one session, he cut the pain in half. Two days later, it was gone.
He’s professional, he takes insurance, and it works. It really does.
Thank you, Doctor Veech.

Andrew Veech is the best. I am 46 and have had many injuries over the years. He has a unique approach to adjustments and includes great muscle work. He is part of my maintenance routine and is the reason I feel healthy and pain free. Helps with my posture, stiffness, pain, headaches, tension and alignment. I leave feeling great — and 2 inches taller.
Very nice. Professional. Clean and convenient offices. Perfect all around.

Salt of the earth practitioner – knowledgeable, articulate and responsive. Also performs ART as an integrated or stand alone modality – I first became acquainted with it briefly, a few years ago, as a post labral repair musculoskeletal treatment at physical therapy.
Desk job, injury/​surgery, decreased activity – any one of which presents a challenge… taken together led to a constellation of symptoms: neck (stiffness), jaw (TMJ soreness/​headaches) shoulders (labrum repairs), back (trigger points), legs (shin splints, tight hamstrings and calves), ankle (achilles tendinosis), and feet (bi-​lateral plantar fasciitis). Oy, the agony.
I read that: to learn ART you must be serious enough to invest a lot of time and effort to learn 500+ treatment moves or «protocols.» Perhaps one reason it’s challenging to find a reasonable local practitioner, even in a major metro – previous chiropractic outfits I visited didn’t offer this type of intensive and patented rehab.
Over the past four months 1−2Xs a week visits have a consistently beneficial therapeutic value. Less pain, more stamina and flexibility. Winning!
He makes you feel at ease with a non-​ivory tower approach to treatment; open to questions and conversation. A chill, west coast vibe whilst professional, and meticulous in his practice. Powerful healing hands, confidence in his skills, also make for a really stellar experience in integrated therapy.

I came in to see if Dr. Veech could help me out with some sore neck muscles. He explained to me his method and worked on the muscles over the course of 2 appointments that seemed to help. My sessions were very informative and I appreciated the fact that I was not pressured into having anything done that I wasn’t comfortable with, such as cracking. The office was very clean and air conditioned. I would recommend seeing Dr. Veech if you are in need of chiropractic services.

After reading all of the positive reviews on Unilocal,I called Dr. Veech last week to make an appt. for last Friday afternoon. My lower back was hurting me and I was hoping he could help alleviate my discomfort and tell me what was causing it. I was able to make an appt. with no issues. I explained it to him what I was feeling and after examining me, he told me that he was almost certain that it was due to a muscle spasm. He then showed me how to do some exercises to help my lower back and said that he would check up on me later this week. Doctor Veech is very friendly, professional but more importantly, he cares and it shows in how he treats you. After I left his office, I was already feeling well enough to walk more at my normal speed and not hunched over like I had been since the week before. Highly recommended.

A good client of mine referred me to Dr. Veech. I’m a makeup artist and suffer from pain and bruising at the thumb and hand area. A lot of people tell me I have carpal tunnel. Good thing Dr assured me it was a muscle injury and nothing more. After a couple visits, I was already noticing marked improvements, and I look forward to all my sessions. Dr. Veech is a cool guy and our sessions are usually fun. As a woman, I thought it might be weird going to a male chiropractor… but it wasn’t weird at all.
I forgot to mention I use to spend countless money and effort at those cheap Chinese 1 hour massage that did nothing for me. Dr. Veech releases all the knots and pain in my forearm, thumbs, shoulder, neck and back, and I love when I get my back and neck cracked.

I have been seeing Dr. Veech for about 1.5 year now, since I began prepping for my first bodybuilding competition. When my training frequency increases, he becomes an integral part of my recovery. He has worked on my neck, back, and hips. I always leave with immediate relief and almost no symptoms after a day or so. I love that he spends most the time performing Active Release Technique, then, if needed, a few adjustments. Whether you are an athlete or just dealing with other chiropractic issues, he comes HIGHLY recommended!

I came to visit Dr. Veech few weeks ago. I had neck pain bothering me over a month, so I wanted to check what’s going on. Dr. Veech was very nice and friendly, kindly listened my story and gave me some massage-​like treatment about a half an hour.
It was great and now my neck went back to normal with just one visit! I highly recommend him.

Because I have family in NYC, I often visit this city. The last time I was here I had hurt my neck and shoulder blade area. I didn’t know what to do since my insurance is in The Netherlands, so my brother suggested seeing a chiropractor. I was a little nervous, but I was told through some friends that Dr. Veech was awesome.
I called and left a message and his office had promptly returned my phone call. He also makes email appointments, which was convenient and he has a very flexible schedule. He made the next morning work to help me since I was only in town for a week. I was given a great combination of muscular/​tissue work with adjustments. So far I’m a big fan of his «active release» treatment (probably got the name wrong)
He also didn’t feel pressured to sign on to a series of treatments to solve all that ails me. There was also great communication throughout the treatment. I was never worried about what he was going to do next. BONUS: he’s completely easy going! He has renewed my faith in chiropractors. I’m more of a physical therapy kind of gal but he proved me wrong. Chiropractors can help! ;)
Best of all since I do not have insurance coverage in the states, his out of pocket rate was totally affordable and he was 100% upfront about that on the telephone when I booked. The next time i have issues when I’m visiting family, I will be going back to him.
I only wish I could find someone like him in The Netherlands. New Yorkers and out of towners, give him a try. You won’t be disappointed!
