Life Chiropractic & Acupuncture

A second-floor practice on Kennedy Boulevard

Life Chiropractic & Acupuncture occupies the second floor at 8500 John F. Kennedy Boulevard West in North Bergen. Chiropractor Alex Hernandez leads the practice. The office offers chiropractic and names licensed acupuncturist Monika Gajiwala for acupuncture; the two disciplines have different schedules. Its website can be read in English, Spanish and Portuguese, an advantage when reviewing the practice’s written information before an appointment.

What is available at the office

The practice lists digital X-rays on site, chiropractic care, spinal decompression, sports injury care and acupuncture. These are services the office advertises, not a recommendation that everyone should receive each one. An examination and discussion of the person’s symptoms and history help determine which consultation is appropriate. Visitors who need acupuncture should request that service specifically rather than assume it is available throughout the chiropractic schedule.

Life lists acupuncture on Tuesday from 3 to 7 p.m., Wednesday from 8 a.m. to noon, Thursday from 3 to 7 p.m. and Friday from 8 a.m. to noon. Chiropractic office hours extend to 7 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, and to 11:30 a.m. on Saturday. Recent accounts mention clear explanations of imaging and attentive staff; those are patients’ individual experiences.

Contact and access

The office website gives 201-241-4061 and info@123yourhealth.com. Its public listing also shows 201-861-2025. The listing identifies a wheelchair-accessible entrance; the office is on the second floor, so visitors with specific access needs can discuss the route when arranging a visit.
