Michael Dardano

Dr. D is truly an amazing holistic doctor and someone I would recommend to anyone I care about. For years, I’ve been dealing with digestive issues. My clean eating and dietary changes weren’t enough and I knew I needed to find someone to help me sort out these issues. Since visiting Dr. D, my digestive issues have improved dramatically. I no longer stress over my digestion ²⁴⁄₇ which is a huge relief for me. His approach is very warm and I leave every appointment with a more positive outlook and ideas of how to improve my health on my own. In addition to treating digestive problems, Dr. D does amazing energy and chiropractic work. His reiki sessions are wonderful and he has helped me understand how my emotions are linked to my physical health and digestion. This is something I didn’t even know I needed until visiting Dr. D. Since I started seeing him, I have gone through a lot of life changes and his appointments have been a great source of comfort and healing. My digestion is back on track and I’m feeling great. I highly recommend visiting him!

Daily computer use has caused my hands and wrists to become very painful at times. My wrist would start to throb to the point where it would affect my day to day work.
Over a matter of a few sessions with Dr Mike, my wrist instantly started to feel better. After a few weeks, I can say I do not feel the throbbing pain anymore and am able to work without issues.
Dr Mike not only treats your issues, but also gives you knowledge on how to maintain a healthy mind and body!

Update to my original review: A year and a half later and I am still a HUGE fan of Dr. Dardano as well as a regular patient. My overall health and wellness has not been this good in years (knock on wood). I went on a 21 day cleanse which he provided me supplements and coached me through, which thanks to him turned out to be a great experience. Also, I have sent my Mom and a friend to him both of whom are seeing results! I suggest anyone who is looking for someone who is caring and extremely well rounded in his practice as well as experienced in multiple disciplines, to call Dr. Dardano.

Dr. Mike is my choice chiropractor and holistic doctor in New York City. It’s not often that you find those two disciplines expertly rolled into one package! He’s helped me with building my energy and immune system; something that’s very important for a massage therapist who sees and does manual bodywork on many people a day!
I’m also impressed with how gentle his bone adjustments can be. I’m mortally terrified of having my neck snapped off, but he has a way of making you feel very comfortable as he manipulates the body for realignment. Two thumbs up for that!

I’ve been visiting Dr. Dardano for about a month and I can honestly say that he really does care about his patients. He’s such a positive, uplifting person to be around too. Initially, I visited him for chiropractic adjustments, but have also seen him for other issues that he’s treated with holistic supplements and even energy work. After the energy session (my first one ever), there were 0 knots in my shoulders. My boyfriend commented that he had never felt my shoulders so relaxed. I’ve been working to get off of hard prescription drugs and Dr. Dardano’s help has really assisted me nicely with this so far.

Dr Dardano is the real deal. I went to him seeking some answers after growing frustrated with conventional medicine. His nutritional advice healed my issues and put me on the path to much more vibrant health immediately. He truly listens to what you have to say and is easy to talk to. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

I came to Dr. Dardano, because I have had asthma my whole life,(was born with it) and I was tired of all the medications, I have been on my whole life! I have always taken Singular and Advair and if i missed a dose I was struggling to breath and it was causing me more problems then just having asthma. With in a week of seeing Dr. Dardano I am off all meds, except for Herbs he gave me and I feel wonderful, (like my asthma is gone.) I feel great and can breath with ease. This is the first time in my life I have been able to run, climb stairs and exercise with out struggling for air. My life has totally changed for the better! He is funny, kind and caring! I never imagined I would feel this wonderful and be this pleased when I walked through his door. Thank you Dr. Mike Dardano! You are the BEST!!!

I can’t say enough about what Dr. Mike Dardano has been able to do for me. Shortly after my 25^th birthday, I came down with a debilitating digestive disease. For two and a half years I traveled to every top gastroenterologist in New York City and Long Island. I saw countless doctors and specialists. I traveled to DC to visit one of the best parasitology labs in the country. No one could figure out what was wrong with me. After rounds of antibiotics, diets and other strong prescriptions and supplements, I was in the worst condition of my life. I was developing food allergies and rashes now. I was exhausted and couldn’t get myself to work. Anything I ate made me terribly sick. And all the side effects from the conventional medicines added 35 pounds onto my frame. It was awful. That’s when I came to this site and looked for alternative treatments on Unilocal.Despite my skepticism, I had no other options after two and a half years. I found Dr. Dardano, saw all the reviews here and sent him a desperate email on a Saturday. He got back to me on Sunday. By that Tuesday in June, I was in his office.
It’s now December. I’m down 40 pounds. I feel better than I have in three years. I got a promotion at work. Things are great and I credit him for all of it. I was a skeptic, but now I will never return to conventional medicine. Dr. Mike guided me and treated me every week during the loneliest and most difficult point in my life when every doctor told me they couldnt do anything for me and that I’d have to get used to living that way.
I’m not yet 100%, but I’m getting my life back for the first time in years and I thank him for giving it back to me. I don’t have to lie to my mother on the phone about how sick I feel to keep her from crying. Life is good and Im excited to keep improving. Go see him!

Dr. Mike has a sweet way about him that is matched only by his caring & innovative approach to healing the body. Rather than just adjusting my back & neck in the traditional methods, he used new & advanced tools to settle my muscles & joints. He also gave me Holistic remedies to combat pain & muscle inflammation. I was feeling better in days & 100% better in three short weeks. His office is also chic, beautiful & calming. I’m so glad I found him.

Two things as an update:
1. Dr. Dardano recently moved to a much more «zen» location. Way better tea :)
2. Dr. Dardano’s 60-​day nutritional program is great.

I’ve only seen Dr. Dardano once, but already feel compelled to write a review. He is fantastic! For the past year I’ve been struggling with severe stomach pains. They’ve been crippling both physically and emotionally and nothing has helped. I’ve changed my diet, lifestyle, seen countless specialists and tried all the medicine the Western world has to offer. Nothing has fully helped me recover.
Our first meeting was wonderful. You can tell he truly cares about his clients and knows what he’s doing. After a quick assessment, Dr. Dardano identified an issue and a plan to correct my pain. Again, it’s only been a week, but my stomach has not felt this good in over a year. I’m thrilled and looking forward to going back in! I’m sure things are going to just continue getting better and better!

As a health care practitioner myself, it’s hard to find someone that I trust to treat me. What makes Dr. Mike great is that he’s got a multifaceted holistic approach — chiropractic, reiki, nutrition, supplements… So many chiropractors are popping and cracking you and getting you out the door, but Dr. Mike gives you time, care and attention you need to help your whole body heal. He helped me a lot after a trip to Cuba when I had digestive problems. One treatment and I was already feeling much better. I could feel my body shifting while on the table and felt the effects for hours later. He’s also got an awesome bedside manner — you can tell that he cares and that he’s giving you 100% of his attention. Highly recommend him.

Dr. Dardano is a true body magician. He takes a very holistic approach utilizing many different tools to help align all your physical, chemical, and emotioanl misalignments. He truly helps you to get connected feel and grounded to the true self. He is a must see!

I started seeing Dr. Mike during a difficult period where I wasn’t eating correctly, was not taking care of myself, and was experiencing a lot of pain from tension in my back and neck. He really helped! He listened to my issues and approached my problems from all angles — what was going on physically for me but also what was going on in my personal and professional life there were contributing to my physical pain. I really appreciated the one on one time with Dr. Mike and the individualized care I received. I saw him regularly for several months and was very happy with his services. I live in NJ and often came into NY just for my appointments with him. Now I go to him whenever my tension/​neck/​back issues flare up or if I need help getting back on track with my health goals. I really appreciate the personal attention I receive with Dr. Mike and that he is always welcoming and ready to help, no matter what problems I come in with. I highly recommend Dr. Mike.

UPDATE: came back to see Dr. Mike a second time cause I felt such a great deal of relief from the first visit. Second time was to address some TMJ, neck tightness, and this gosh darn headache i have had for over 1.5 years and had just assumed would be part of my life forever. Tried neurological meds, acupuncture, massage, etc. Had someone said go get your ears cracked and you will feel better i would have laughed in their face. Well, Dr. Mike cracked my ears and AMEN my head ache is gone and now its gone! i have this clarity in my head that is unbelievable. I cant recommends him enough.
There are doctors. There are practitioners. There are practitioners you see. Then there are practitioners that practice what they love and are amazing at! THIS IS THE GUY YOU MUST GO SEE

Holistic health is the way to go. If you want to make make positive changes in your life and daily habits like I did… I came to Dr Dardano because I had been feeling sluggish, unmotivated, stressed, I had difficulties with digestion and my skin was breaking out — which was not something i wanted at my age (30)! Dr Dardano customized a wellness program for me that included a special diet to cleanse my system and figure out what was causing me to have these issues. It was a fully monitored program (checkups) with NATURAL supplements to make sure my body was getting everything it needed. Combined with Reiki sessions to work on the rest (which I wasn’t sure about at first) — After one session I left the office feeling calm and collected and woke up early (instead of dragging myself out of bed) the next day.
The most positive results: Dr Dardano completely changed the way that I think about food, most of us don’t take any regard for what we put in our bodies — you are what you eat! My skin glows and he gave me lasting tips to keep my energy up and stress down.

Dr. Micheal Dardano is an amazing Hollistic Doctor. I went in for my first-​ever Reiki treatment and almost instantly I felt comfortable around him. He is warm and inviting, a trait that is rare among doctors. After he adjusted my energy chakras it’s as if the dark clouds looming over me began to clear almost over night. I highly recommend him if you are having deep emotional problems and considering Reiki as an alternative treatment.

I’ve been going to see Dr. Dardano last may (2011) and I’ve been going back since. either for nutrition, or neck/​back pain. he has helped me reduce my pains and it has been wonderful. I’ve also been able to become more healthier with all the natural supplements that he has given me. I feel great and I thank him for it. I wouldnt know what to do without him!

Dr. Dardano is an excellent chiropractor/​healer. My daughter has been treated by him for several months. He has helped with various sports related ailments — knee problems, heel problems, and hip problems. He is a highly skilled practitioner who cares about the whole person. Dr. Dardano really understands my daughter and her lifestyle and his treatments are personalized to her needs and personality. Dr. Dardano has excellent communication skills and makes the visits pleasant and informative. He is very organized and she has never had to wait. He takes the time to consult with me about his treatment plan, which I greatly appreciate. The office is beautiful, the staff is gracious and it is an overall excellent experience.
