The Scene – The brainchild of Dr. JoAnn Weinrib, a chiropractor and experienced holistic healer, Body Central tackles the pitfalls of urban living with unique, integrated treatments. Despite its alternative tendencies, Body Central's atmosphere is less New Age-y than your average yoga studio; the 3,500-square-foot loft is more like a peaceful, airy doctor's office. Weinrib herself is smart, perceptive and nurturing, offering practical tips and solid advice; the staff is friendly and very well-trained. – – The Services – For stress- and pain-relief, the center offers…

Fix Me Up!
by nyexp
I should start by saying that I have an unnatural fear of chiropractors and have avoided them at all costs. I came to Body Central on the advice of a friend, with a nagging injury, and was very pleased with the results. Dr. Weinrib listened to what I had to say, gave me a full body evaluation, and then after heat and ultrasound were applied, got to work on fixing my body. I left there knowing that I would have to come back (and how many sessions it would take), but also knowing that my injury would go away in a few weeks between office visits and a home care program. The doctor's diagnosis, treatment and timeline were right on the money. I have since gotten massages there and was very happy with the skill and attentiveness of the masseur.
- Pros: the Doc, environment, scheduling

I can breathe again!
by annemiles
Dr. Joanne Weinrib's "Sinus Treatment" saved me! I quit smoking, and I thought everything would clear up immediately. But things get worse before they get better. I didn't know that. But Dr. Weinrib did. In addition to curing me with her treatment, she knew which vitamins I should take as a recent non-smoker. And she knew that my leg pain was b/c a shoddy trainer made me do lunges -- even though they're next to impossible to get right. And that the thing on my neck wasn't a tumor -- but an out of alignment vertabra. and on. and on. Her approach is serious, holistic, hopeful, no-nonsense, personal and caring. I've also had a cranial-massage there, and it was sublime. Like immediate and deep meditation. This place is a gem. A find. I think the "Doc" (as Dr. Weinrib's wonderful staff members so lovingly refer to her) is a GENIUS!

Miracle Worker!
by yogi4life
This morning I was unable to move my head around at all, trust me, not fun. With a heating pad around my neck, I miserably searched for a solution to a strained neck. I decided on getting an adjustment-a friend recommended Body Central. The staff was professional, caring, the environment relaxing & peaceful. Dr. Weinrib is a miracle worker, her sincere desire to help & her expertise truly helped me out so much today. I left feeling 100 times better, relaxed, able to move my neck around most importantly. I was given great advice & even an explanation of what went wrong. I am extremely satisfied and touched by the services I received at Body Central & highly recommend the specials or an emergency save like mine. Their services list is great, I can't wait to go back in for a massage or facial. Great Spot!! thanks Body central!
