Meet Dr. Ankur For Healing In Manhattan Chiropractor Services

Sometimes a chance encounter changes your life. It did for Dr. Ankur Prakash, whose Well Balanced Chiropractic serves to enrich and shape the lives of its neighbors and clients. For Dr. Prakash, the future happened during undergrad. One night while dining with a roommate and his father – who happened to be a chiropractor – he became fascinated with this man’s inspiring tales of healing. Healing without drugs, without external interference. Healing from within. That spoke to something profound in him. Dr. Prakash longed to pursue a life of helping others through medicine, but he had always thought that healing came from administering pills or potions or elixirs or remedies of some sort. He believed that a doctor prescribed, that a doctor healed, by giving a patient something to take. But during that revelatory night, hearing the chiropractor’s tales of how he helped a man overcome his pain by learning how to hold himself, how he enabled a woman to think more clearly by simply readjusting her spine, Dr. Prakash had an epiphany: He could guide people to use the strengths of their own bodies and spirits to become better. He could utilize the power of chiropractic to help them grow and thrive. He realized that becoming healthy, staying healthy, being healthy, wasn’t a matter of taking a pill a day, but of knowing how to live.

So Dr. Prakash put aside the conventional medical career he had begun, and embarked on a path of chiropractic, a path of healing based on proven methods of teaching the body how to respond to itself in the best and safest way. While Dr. Prakash heard his roommate’s chiropractic father, he also learned to listen. So after his studies in chiropractic at Life Chiropractic College West, Dr. Prakash established Well Balanced Chiropractic in New York. Now, seven years later, his practice in Manhattan’s Upper West Side has provided residents of this thriving neighborhood a haven where they can learn to become better, where everyone of any age, from septuagenarians to children, from singles to families, can learn to heal from within – to listen to their bodies. To learn to recognize and to trust their untapped strengths. Dr. Prakash believes you never stop learning, and that by connecting with a community, you enrich everyone’s lives. He and his team attend seminars and further their training throughout the year so that they can continue to provide the best service to the neighbors they serve, whether it’s simple realignment of the core, to massage, to diet and exercise, to spiritual well-being. We are a combination of everything – and Dr. Prakash and his team emphasize total body wellness through natural healing, spiritual healing and a combination of wellness techniques that teach one’s body to learn to heal itself naturally. Unleash the power of the body and the mind through the wisdom of chiropractic. Listening to your body, recognizing your inner strengths isn’t difficult. It’s an enjoyable and stress-free way to become a better you.
