Dr. Chester provides gentle chiropractic care for patients of all ages, including children, in a comfortable setting with individual attention to every patient. After nine years in a group practice I have come back to my roots in solo practice. I feel that I am now "home" and am excited to explore new methods of chiropractic and holistic therapies.I received my Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) from the New York Chiropractic College in 1996. Chiropractic medicine begins with finding the underlying cause of a problem, and so in 2012 I finished advanced training in diagnosis and internal disorders, earning DABCI (Diplomate of the American Board of Chiropractic Internists) certification from the American Chiropractic Association.

Chester is a skilled and compassionate person. My son and I have complicated connective tissue disorders that require several adjustments per week. I trust her with our care and give her the highest possible recommendation. The objective of chiropractic treatment is to correct nerve interference caused by bony misalignment in a safe and effective manner without using the aid of drugs or surgery.
Chiropractic care is a holistic and natural approach to treating health by focusing on the connection between the spine and nervous system. The spinal column protects and carries nerves from the brain to every part of the body. The spinal column is made up of individual bones called vertebrae, and these bones can get misaligned, pinch nerves and interfere with nerve functions.
I love flipflops as much as the next person, but they are right up there with those beautiful high heels in causing toe, foot, ankle, knee, hip & back problems. Your feet are your foundation and. If you come to me for a recent short-term injury (acute) you would probably only need a short term of therapy.
In 1998, the University of Naples, Italy studied 70 to 100-year-olds and found that those who lived the longest and were the healthiest ate a lot more fruit and vegetables. Men and women whose diets are high in fruits and vegetables were shown to have lower rates of angina, arthritis, asthma, bronchitis, cirrhosis, gallstones, heart attack, kidney stones and peptic ulcers.

I was referred to Dr Chester many years ago for chiropractic aid to address scoliosis and associated issues. I received pain relief and increased range of motion in a very short period of time. She showed me excercises that would help and encouraged orthotics for a balanced step. Her goal is for long lasting relief and that is what I've received. I'm able to hike and ski, something that was so very painful to do 10 years ago. She addresses the whole person. I've received relief from digestive issues as well. She's kind, caring, considerate, friendly and professional. Highly recommend!

I normally don't write reviews unless the experience has been incredibly good or bad. I have to say that Dr. Chester is amazing. I have been suffering from neck and shoulder pain for a long time. I have visited many doctors and no one showed the compassion and concern for my well being like Dr. Chester did. She took the time and fit me into her busy schedule yesterday, which was a Saturday.
I sent a text that morning out of desperation and 20 minutes later she called me. I travel for business and she did different treatments to alleviate my pain to get me through the next two weeks. Although I am still not perfect, I feel that what she did is helping me. I recommend her, she is knowledgeable, caring, and a joy to meet! By the way, the minute you step into her office, you feel a sense of tranquility and that you have arrived at the place where you matter! Dr. Chester thank you so much!

I cannot offer enough positive feedback about Dr. Chester and her practice, Family Health and Chiropractic Care! Dr. Chester is exceedingly skilled; being equally as kind and caring. I experience migraine headaches and Dr. Chester's adjustments have made a world of difference; often alleviating terrible pain. Dr. Chester is truly invested in her patient's well being and dedicated to ensuring her practice provides the best possible care. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking support in pain management and holistic care. She is a wonderful!

My family and I have been going to see Dr. Chester since we moved to town over 5 years ago. Prior to that I had seen numerous other chiropractors, some of which were always trying to sell me on more treatments than I probably actually needed. Dr. Chester is the best I have seen and I haven't hesitated in recommending her to family and friends. She's always been patient and kind with myself and my two young children.
We've never felt rushed during an appointment and always felt we were being listened to. She's helped provide adjustments when I was pregnant and almost immediately after giving birth she's given adjustments to my children. We always bring them to her when we aren't feeling well and when the children have an ear infection. Almost immediately they start to feel better.
My children even ask to go get a "massage" on their own without prompting. Dr. Chester has always gone above and beyond to accommodate our hectic schedules and somehow always finds time in her busy day to see us, even when we reach out that same day.

I am a registered nurse. For years, I was skeptical of chiropractors as early on they were not well respected by the medical community. I was plagued with chronic back/shoulder pain that I thought I would be stuck with forever and did not want to live on medications. Eventually out of desperation I went to 2 different chiropractors in town and, while I felt better, neither were successful with my shoulder.
I went to Dr. C when her partner at the time was unavailable. My shoulder problem was fixed in that one visit! She is extremely knowledgeable, skilled, compassionate and is more than willing to teach you ways to help yourself. Her office is warm and inviting and she is as flexible as she can be with scheduling. I have worked in the medical community for a very, very long time and Dr. Chester is as genuine as they get.
Her skills amaze me. I now live in TN and come back to CT frequently to see family. I never miss an opportunity to be treated by her and I will never let another practitioner near my bones haha. Make an appointment today and I guarantee, she will change your life!

I started seeing Dr. Chester when my hands were going numb during my pregnancy. Not only did she help my hands, but made my back and neck better in the process. I have continued treatment after giving birth and can't imagine my bi weekly adjustments without Dr. Chester. Her approach is natural and she does it with the utmost care and kindness. I highly recommend Dr. Chester for all your chiropractic needs!

Suzanne was amazing. Words cannot even express how grateful I am for her services! We were in CT for a wedding and my back was killing me. I called right as she was closing and she stayed open and waited for me to get there! She was SO sweet, smart and helpful. Her adjustment was heaven sent and different than any chiropractor I've ever seen. If I could give 6 stars I would. Thank you Suzanne!
