Chiropractic is a non-invasive, hands-on health care discipline that focuses on the neuro-musculoskeletal system. Chiropractors practice a manual approach. Doctors of Chiropractic are specifically trained to detect and correct problems in the spine, often before the patient is even aware they exist.
Myofascial release is a technique that is highly effective at decreasing muscle spasms and tightness, and increasing range of motion. This utilizes specific movement patterns to better isolate muscles that are being addressed under care. This technique is utilized for localized pain patterns of the spine and extremities.
Dr. Alan Amendola graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Bridgeport, School of Chiropractic, in nearby Bridgeport, CT. During his chiropractic education, Dr. Amendola served as a student intern at the UB Clinic, and Community Health Centers of Connecticut where he facilitated over 75 new patient consultations, and over 350 patient visits.

Vincent Leadership Award, the Clinic Excellence Award, and the Student Clinic Assistantship Award.

Read PostDr Alan is the best! He’s very straight forward and explained everything In terms that are easy to understand. Highly recommended!
I highly recommend this practice and Dr. Alan! I was suffering from intense arm pain due to a pinched nerve and after ONE visit I felt immense relief!!!
Everyday life and stress continually takes its toll, especially on my neck and back. Dr. Amendola has successfully treated my headaches, neck and low back pain. The treatments allow me to keep moving forward without downtime. He is kind, patient and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him as a chiropractor.
Dr.Alan is simply wonderful. He’s helped my neck and lower back tremendously just after 4 visits and I have had years of back pain. Highly highly recommend!
The entire staff is AMAZING. Dr. Alan is kind, caring, and spends tons of time with me every visit. I went from from chronic neck pain and almost daily migraines to having almost no headaches and a huge reduction in pain and tension. Kelly (massage therapist) is also awesome - the whole staff is comprised of genuine people who want to heal and take the time necessary to do it!
I’ve recently began receiving treatment from Dr. Alan and I could not be happier. I have worked for and received treatment from other chiropractors over the past 13 years and can say with certainty that Dr. Alan is the best. He has a professional and gentle bedside manner and does a thorough intake of health history and symptoms I was experiencing. Even more thorough is his hands on assessment, he performed several manual muscle tests and evaluated my range of motions. In addition to that he did some soft tissue manipulation to prepare my neck and hips for the adjustment, which very few chiropractors I’ve experienced do but is absolutely invaluable for me as the patient. The adjustment was very successful and I felt instant relief from my symptoms. Dr. Alan did all this while educating me on what he was doing and checking in with me on my comfort level. I think it’s worth mentioning that Dr. Alan is also a professor of chiropractic and this shows in his treatment. If you are looking for comprehensive and thoughtful care then look no further than Dr. Alan.
Dr. Alan is great at what he does. He is efficient and extremely helpful and overall a really nice guy. The people at the front desk are also very kind and helpful. Dr. Alan saved my soccer season!!
The staff is kind, caring and helpful and Dr. Amendola is very professional, knowledgeable and efficient on what he does. I would absolutely recommend to anyone seeking support with back/neck related issues. When you’re ready to let go off the pain, call them. You won’t regret it!
I have been going to see Dr. Alan Amendola for a few months now, my husband (Vince) has been seeing him for about a year. My husband raved about the staff, and especially Dr. Alan. Before going to Dr. Alan I wasn't sleeping very well due to pain in my neck and elbow. It took me a while before I agreed to a visit, and I have to say I'm sorry I waited so long. Dr. Alan is amazing !! he is thoughtful and compassionate. He explains everything he is going to do and has eased my fear of chiropractors ! After a few visits I am sleeping much better and my pain has decreased immensely. if you are in pain don't wait go see Dr. Alan and staff I'm sure they can help !
I’ve tried 3 other chiropractors and Dr. Alan is by far my favorite! He has helped my back and neck problems significantly.
I have been to several chiropractors prior to Dr. (Alan) Amendola, who not only gave me the most thorough exam, but also the best hands on treatment with the best adjustments and muscle stretching/ massage ever. I feel much better since treatment and look forward to going back again!
Dr. Alan Amendola has been a literal life-saver, for me. I have a pretty complicated spinal history and some medical issues that arose from a spinal surgery gone wrong when I was only 14 years old.
After going to a handful of different orthopedists, and primary care doctors, I was pretty fed up with both local doctors, as well as ones who were further away. I reached the point where I didn't know what to do anymore, especially since my pain levels were steadily hard to deal with and mobility/flexibility had severely diminished.
I researched my spinal issues carefully, ultimately deciding to go the chiropractic route, choosing Dr. Alan Amendola. On my first visit he was very thorough in explaining the process, game-plan for my specific spinal issues, and how long he anticipated my recovery would be.
Anyway, I am overjoyed to say that thanks to Dr. Amendola's extensive knowledge and know-how, I am finally seeing positive results with my back. I am in less pain, have increased mobility and actually see improvement with a shoulder issue. I can't believe the improvement that has come about in a little over 2 months time. It's now been 13 years since my last revision surgery and I finally feel like I am physically on the road to progress!
I was having serious neck and lower back pain and my sister and mother swear by Dr.Alan and his team. They were great and I wouldn't go anywhere else.
This place is wonderful! All of the staff there is so warm and welcoming. I see Dr. Alan for back and neck pain after an accident and the progress is phenomenal. I find myself being able to do more things at home with ease and am getting my movement back.
Very professional chiropractor. Eased my back pain in a matter of weeks.
Dr Amendola and his practice truly take care of their patients. They helped me work through some muscle, back and spine issues I was having. Appointments are on time and Dr Amendola takes the time to monitor progress and offer appropriate treatments for his patients. Very thankful for his assistance and will be seeing him regularly for maintenance and massages.
I was in so much pain that even laying in bed would hurt. I made an appointment and Dr. Amendola spent an hour searching for what was causing it. I left the office feeling so much better and relieved from the pain that I got home and fell asleep. Will be going back to continue treatment and even after I plan on rehab so this doesn’t happen again. Thank you Dr. Amemdola for al your hard work!
A++++. I went from hardly sleeping for weeks with pain to totally pain free in 5 sessions. Dr. Alan's diagnosis and treatment was spot on. He was genuine and reassured me what I had was treatable. I am shocked at how dramatic the change was every session. The entire staff is also wonderful to deal with. I never felt rushed and everything was easy to schedule. If you are looking for a chiropractor. Don't hesitate. This is the spot.
I have known Dr. Alan Amendola for awhile now since he was my student doctor back in Chiropractic school. And now, I got into a motor vehicle accident few months ago and had knee pain, low back pain and neck pain due to the accident. I went in for treatment and I will say that I have gotten the best treatment starting from alleviation of my neck pain, low back pain and knee pain. This is a true testament that there are doctors like Dr. Amendola that understands their patients and knows the best treatment to administer. So thank you for being who you are.
The service I have received here is excellent and the staff is friendly and helpful. I had previously never been to a chiropractor, but I would highly recommend Dr Amendola and the rest of the staff there. His care has greatly reduced my muscle pain and joint stiffness, for which I am very grateful for, as it was an issue other doctors had failed to treat properly.
