Meet the Doctor
Dr. Gary Post and the Center For Health have been serving the South County community since 1982. Utililizing chiropractic, physical therapy and nutrition the Center safely and effectively offers natural, drug-free solutions to many problems. Some conditions commonly treated successfully are back and neck pain, disc hernations, sprains/strains, headaches, sciatica, extremity problems, carpal tunnel syndrome, workers comp injuries, etc. We also treat patients who have been injured in auto accidents and Dr. Post has testified successfully in court for his patients as an expert witness when necessary.
In addition, as the only practicing, nutritionally board certified chiropractic physician in RI, Dr. Post and the Center also offer natural, safe and effective drug-free solutions for problems such as elevated cholesterol, digestive disorders, menstrual problems, hot flashes and menopausal symptoms, low energy and chronic fatigue, ADD/ADHD, allergies, chemical sensitivities, and metabolic syndrome, to mention a few.
Please know that our primary goal is always to assist you in getting well so that you are able to return to those activities of living that you love and enjoy. As such, we only accept those cases that we sincerely believe we can help. If we feel that a patient's condition is out of our scope of treatment we will refer them to another specialist. But, again please realize that
MANY OF THESE TYPES OF CONDITIONS CAN BE TREATED SUCCESSFULLY WITHOUT DRUGS AND THEIR SIDE EFFECTS!
