Rhino Chiropractic

This place came highly recommended by a friend of mine, so I checked it out. My first impressions were that the facility is immaculate, and the staff are friendly, professional, and knowledgable. However, I felt uncomfortable during my consultation. After watching a video about chiropractic medicine and then getting x-​rays and a quick physical exam, Dr. John diagnosed me with a subluxation and launched into, what felt to me, as a sales pitch. It was way too high pressure for a clinical setting, and I felt more like I was purchasing a car. At one point, he encouraged me to bring my spouse in (who was at home) to help negotiate the terms. Overall, I was charged (up front) 100 dollars (cash) for the X-​ray interpretation and was supposed to go back for a follow up, which I never did. On my way out, I was invited to a «movie night» where some of staff were going to watch a documentary about how the medical industry has historically demonized chiropractic medicine. I politely declined as I got a «occultish» vibe from the place… Odd…
Overall, I would never go as far to call anyone a «crook», because the guy is doing his job and has a hustle — I can respect that… However, I went to him as a person in pain and left feeling like I was taken advantage of. Money poorly spent, for which, I recorded no therapeutic benefit.

Dr. Gehnrich is a very caring Doctor who wants the best for your health and is willing to work with you to reach the top results possible. Ever since I walked through his doors I felt the positive energy that made me want to keep coming back! Best Chiropractor I’ve been too without a doubt!

I am under Dr. John’s care since January 2016 for my lower back, neck and shoulder pain. I have been receiving adjustments 3 times a week. After adjustments, cold laser treatment, and proper exercise I see significant improvement in my lower back.
I have been suffering from headaches due to neck issues and I got significant relief after a few weeks treatment. Unfortunately, when I stopped cold laser treatment and cut down my visits to 2 times a week, my headaches are back and my shoulder and neck pain has gotten a little worse. I am very hopeful that soon these issues with my neck and shoulder will improve again.
Since my insurance does not cover chiropractic treatments Dr. John has been very kind and worked out a suitable payment plan for me. He is truly a very kind and understanding doctor.
I would highly recommend Dr. John.

Rhino Chiropractic is Great! I’ve been to a lot of Chiropractors & Dr John Gehnrich is the best! Great adjustment! He takes the time to explain everything & he really cares about my health. I feel very comfortable referring my friends to him.

Proof is in the pudding! And the pudding tastes GREAT! I recently got some blood work done, just to see where I’m at with my health. All my numbers this year are much better than last year’s! They all still need improvement, but I am happy to say my (new) numbers are from ADDING Dr. Gehnrich’s chiropractic services, and SUBTRACTING all the awful meds I was on from my outside doctors.
My health record is pretty personal, but I will share it with you. Like I said — it’s nowhere near perfect — AT ALL!!! However, I’ve come a long way since I started here mid this year.
a. In one of my earlier reviews here, I mentioned that before I started treatments with Dr. Gehnrich, my BLOOD PRESSURE was anywhere in the 170’s/130’s. (Yes — that’s heart attack /​stroke mode.) My outside doctors put me on two (combo) meds for my blood pressure, which got it down (somewhat) to 140’s/90’s. The blood pressure meds didn’t have the best affect on my body (swelling to legs and feet), so I just stopped taking them. I decided to see Dr. Gehnrich instead, just to see if any difference can be made NATRUALLY — and it did. My BP numbers drastically reduced to an average of (mid) 120’s/90’s — WITH NO MEDS. I can proudly say, that with continuing my therapy with Dr. G, my most recent number was ¹²⁸⁄₇₈!!! Yes, I still have work to do, but I am very pleased that this is still improving.
b. Now the section almost nobody likes to talk about — CHOLESTEROL. MY LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) Cholesterol, AKA — the BAD cholesterol — went from 122 to 113! You usually want to be under the 130 range. My HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) Cholesterol, AKA — the GOOD cholesterol — went from 52 to 55! Since it’s GOOD cholesterol, you want a higher number (not lower), and it’s usually optimal to have OVER 46. So I am content that with Dr. G’s care, I got rid of some bad cholesterol, and supplemented with good cholesterol. I’m still on the road to further improvement though!
c. My TRIGLYCERIDES (how the body processes fats) is much better than last year. Generally, you want to have a number below 150. Last year was 90, and this year is (DRUMROLL!!) — 68!!! WooHoo!!!
d. My GLUCOSE (blood sugar for energy) unfortunately went up from 74 to 84. I’m still within normal range (65 – 99), but this is where I need work. Dr. G has been recommending that I complete one of his cleanses for some time now. I really think that a body cleanse will help flush out a lot of the built-​up toxins in my body (from many years), which in turn will help my (other issues) of Body Mass Index /​Waist Circumference (49) — yes — I’m a BIG lady. I just been a hard-​head about doing it, because we’ve been under the holiday season these past few months (Thanksgiving, and now Christmas and New Year’s coming up) — so I know for myself it’s not the best time (for me) to start a cleanse. I will look into doing this after the New Year.
All in all, you’d be surprised on what chiropractic work can do for the body overall. The natural manipulation of the spine /​body puts everything back in place naturally, so you can function as a whole. The day before Thanksgiving (a few weeks ago), I was able to help package bags of food for the homeless. This required doing a lot of heavy lifting, bending, and separating, and so if I didn’t see Dr. G right beforehand for my adjustment — I know I wouldn’t have been able to help out with that project. Being able to partake in that was pretty personal for me, since I used to be on the other side of that boat. So I can honestly say that with the blessings of Dr. G’s treatments, I was able to pass along that blessing and help others /​the homeless. I wasn’t able to do this in the past, so this was definitely a part of personal fulfillment for me. Such a wonderful way to start a close to this year. I look forward to what next year (2016) brings!

Dr John is the best chiropractor I’ve ever been to! And I’ve been to way to many… Seems like no one has been able to fix my neck issues until I came here! He is the only one that I feel adjusts me properly, efficiently and with care. He is not only an amazing doctor but an amazing person. Always checking up and seeing how I’m doing. I definitely recommend going to him if you’re having any pains he’s going to fix you!

Dr. John is very professional and very understanding of each of his patients needs. He explains everything he is going to include in his get well plan for each individual. He gives you the opportunity to pick and choose what you can handle in order to get the most out of his expertise. The office is bright and clean. There is not a lot of wait time. Appointment times are respected which to me is so important. In the short time I have been under treatment with Dr. John, I have already seen and feel a difference. I would recommend him to anyone seeking relief of any body ailment that can be addressed by chiropractic procedures.

I have been going to Dr. John for some time and was skeptical when I started. But over time I noticed I was sick a lot less and was able to continue a regular exercise routine with the care he gave me. Last Thursday morning I injured myself while lifting weights. I applied ice and rest but the injury came back this past Tuesday morning. I took some pain medicine to get me through the day and still was hurt. I stopped by his office and received an adjustment Wednesday afternoon and by Thursday morning I felt much better. I did not have to rely on a two week regiment of pain killers as some doctors would prescribe and live in a fog. Thanks to Dr. John’s care I was able to heal naturally and recovered quicker. I would recommend seeing him before you let another physician perform costly and unneeded surgery on your back.

Dr. John Gehnrich made me feel great. Got rid of my hip issue that I have been dealing with for years. He treats your whole body. If your are looking for a Chiropractor he is the one. Compassionate, knowledgeable and just a great doc that brings you to Wellness!!!

It has been about a month since I started treatment at Rhino Chiropractic. Since that time, I have experienced a number of wonderful changes to my body. I have had severe chronic pain in my right hip for several years, along with neck pain & stiffness in my lower back due to an accident. The hip pain made it difficult for me to sleep, & I was told I would eventually need a hip replacement. Looking for alternatives, & after about a half a dozen chiropractors, I found R.C. The 1^st time Dr. John treated me with the cold laser therapy I felt a significant difference in the way I walked & much less pain In my hip & neck. After only 3 treatments of the cold laser & before even one adjustment, I noticed an improvement in my step. The severe limp I had was reduced so much so that my friends noticed immediately. One friend was so surprised to see such a major change she had tears in her eyes & gave me a big hug! Again, this was after ONLY the third treatment of the cold laser, & not even an adjustment yet! Since then, I’ve noticed other changes, such as deeper breathing, walking faster, better posture, lower back loosened, having a lot more energy (I do not feel like I want to take a nap in the afternoon.), deeper sleep (Since I am not tossing & turning bc of my hip pain, now I wake up feeling refreshed.), & deeper breathing (as I have asthma).
Last week, in my yoga class I experienced extreme vibrations throughout my entire body. It was a release of stagnant energy. In the 8 years of practicing yoga, I have never had a release so intense! In other words, I feel as if my power has been turned on!
Dr. John’s caring & concern really shows. He has given me hope that through this treatment plan, I truly believe that I will not need the hip surgery the doctors proposed. I am very grateful to Dr. John for giving me my life back! I would highly recommend Rhino Chiropractic to anyone who is in chronic pain or other ailments.

Dr. John is, first and foremost, committed to the total health of his patients. I have had many conversations with him that are far deeper than «what hurts?» He is a practitioner of a healing art, and I am grateful that I have trusted our family’s wellness to him.

I have been receiving adjustments for almost a year now and all I can say is that I wouldn’t have survived the high level of stress from work and family over the past year without my appointments at Rhino. I only get adjusted once a week now, as I am on maintenance, but my immune system is still strong and keeping me at work while everyone else is getting colds.
One (of the many things) I love about Dr. John is that he’ll help you get your body where it needs to be without ever recommending drugs or unhealthy options. Holistic wellness is something I believe wholeheartedly in and I am living proof it works!!!

My whole family have been seeing Dr. John for years (over 6 years — since 2007). I have never met a more caring, kind man who is dedicated to his craft, so I’m really surprised about those two bad ratings and reviews.
I started seeing Dr John because my then 10 month old son was getting chronic ear infections (4 infections in 3 months — can you imagine the antibiotics on his little system?!?) and they wanted to put tubes in his ears. I did some research and chiropractic came up as an alternative therapy. Through the recommendation of friends, I went to see Dr. John. I was never so comfortable with a practitioner before. He was knowledgeable, kind, caring, listened to my fears, had real science behind him, and was super gentle with my son. After several adjustments, my son’s ears were clear and we didn’t need antibiotics. With regular weekly treatments, he never got one again. He is now a healthy, vibrant 6 year old and never needed tubes. Dr. J adjusts my whole family — me, my husband, my 6 year old and my 1 year old. I have a sway back with a tipped pelvis and get sciatica. With regular care, I have practically no pain. If I skip a week, you better believe my body tells me. It was practically unbearable through my last pregnancy. The only relief I got was after an adjustment.
Chiropractic is not a one shot deal. You don’t just go for one adjustment and expect to be healed of every injury you’ve ever had. It is a journey. Your spine is the workhorse of your body and is constantly getting thrown out of whack; chiropractic brings it back into alignment so that the rest of your body works the way it should. I suspect the two reviews were expecting to take a magic pill and be healed instantaneously, but it doesn’t work like that. It is a process. He also doesn’t BS people and tells you the truth — some people can’t take that level of honesty.
Is it expensive? Some insurances will cover it if you have an ailment. Some will cover a certain number of treatments. And yes, there will be some out of pocket costs. But I feel that preventative care is worth it. If it helps prevent me from getting a pinched nerve (because of my sway back), it is worth every penny. If it prevents my son from getting ear infections, it is worth every penny. If it keeps my husband in fighting shape so he can provide for his family, it is worth every penny.
I am very happy with Dr. John and if you meet him, you will be too.

This guy is nothing but BS… he sees dollar signs when you walk in, not a person in pain… From the second I walked in, him and his staff were trying to sell me extras like pills and some miracle spray that is displayed on the counter… they even showed me a video about how a healthy spine will even prevent cancer… THIS GUY IS A QUACK… find a chiropractor who just cares about your pain, not a salesmen.

Dr. John is great! I visit New York every few months and when I do I always make sure to stop in and see him! He pays attention to his patients and is very kind. He has helped my low back pain and asthma significantly! I have also noticed more energy whenever I get adjusted by him. He is fun to talk to and always smiling. I really enjoy being his patient! I would recommend him to anyone who lives in New York or is traveling to New York!

Is Rhino Chiropractic a scam?!? I met Dr John first time at the Country Club on Long Island where I was working at the time. He asked me if I have any problems with my neck and sure I had. I went through the accident 8 month prior to that which left me with increasing pain and numbness in my neck, arms and my lower legs. I have tried everything from pills, corticosteroid shots, massage therapy and all kind of supplements. I was offered a surgery at some point which I declined do to high risk of negative effect. Needless to say that I was afraid that I was going to be paralyzed in the near future. After just few adjustments I felt like Life came back to me and I could carry on my normal daily activities without any restrictions. My excitement from my healing went so far that I decided to learn Chiropractic profession and go to school for it. My journey started with undergraduate education and finishing with Sherman Chiropractic College which I am graduating from this summer 2013. Dr John blessed me with the the knowledge of helping people and give them a benefit of Chiropractic healing without the drugs or surgery. There is no doubt that Dr John follows his path as a healer by true calling of his heart.

Dr John has the biggest ego… he is very opinionated and thinks his way of doing things is the one and only way… he is very moody and has a staff that is constatly changing because he is hard to work for… I would never use him again or recommend him… after years as his patient I had enough and moved on to another chiropractor for my families care…
