Hudson Family Chiropractic is a long standing practice with roots in Hoboken, and real concern for their patients. I always feel great after an adjustment, and look forward to the next.



Graston Technique® is a non-invasive technique that uses specially designed stainless steel instruments to help the clinician identify and treat areas exhibiting soft tissue problems or chronic inflammation. It is successful in effectively treating all soft tissue conditions, whether they are chronic, acute or post surgical. This unique technique and these instruments enable the clinician to address scar tissue and fascial restrictions during rehabilitation.
As the instruments are moved over the affected area and come in contact with the adhesions, they help break up scar tissue and fascial restrictions. In time, this process will reduce or eliminate the adhered fibers, restoring range of motion and eliminating the associated pain. It will help transform your soft tissue injury into healthy functioning tissue.

Hudson Family Chiropractic is a long standing practice with roots in Hoboken, and real concern for their patients. I always feel great after an adjustment, and look forward to the next.

I have worked with Dr. Mike for years. His gentle, attentive approach to chiropractor work takes all the nervousness about going to get an adjustment. And he doesn’t just do adjustments. He does deep stretches to ensure a correct spine adjustment and will even recommend exercises to do to improve posture. He is knowledgeable and incredibly effective. I always feel notably better after each visit. He is humble, friendly and extremely easy to work with. Do not hesitate in seeking his services for all of your chiropractory needs. You will not be disappointed.

I am a longtime patient of John and Mike and found their services to be professional, proficient, and effective. I can always count on getting an appointment in a reasonable time and getting in and out is fast. But recently, I needed the attention of a Physical Therapist, and that’s when they referred me to their therapist, Nicole.
My first meeting with Nicole was extremely pleasant and I was quickly impressed with her knowledge in her profession. She made me feel comfortable and she explained what was causing my pain and what her course of action would be. Within a few days, the pain had almost disappeared and I started for feel great. She continued to work with me and again, the appointments were around my schedule and we got to work and I was out the door never feeling rushed.
I want to personally thank the staff at Hudson Family Chiropractic, John and Mike for the work that they do and also Nicole for her skills in getting me back on my NEW bicycle.
Great job Guys.

The staff is super friendly and welcoming. Dr. Michael is excellent and each time I leave feeling much better. Anybody walking in is definitely receiving the highest level of care!

I just finished physical therapy [pain in right knee] at Hudson Family Chiropractic and Physical Therapy and could not have asked for a better experience.
The center has worked wonders on me! When Nicole C. [PT] listened to my goals and history to determine the best workouts, she asked the right questions. She then analyzed the information to create the best plan, tailored for me. No cookie cutter approaches here.
Nicole is the best PT I could asked for. She gives you good exercises to work on and monitors you while you are doing exercises. As you progress, she adds on more to challenge you. Nicole gives you focused individual attention, using different techniques to treat your condition. Working with her has been an always pleasant personal experience.
The center is flexible with scheduling, always on time and had a very social, friendly atmosphere.

I absolutely LOVE Dr. Suzie! She has helped me so much with PT. She is always so nice and down to earth! I fully recommend seeing her if you are dealing with any sort of pelvic discomfort / pain after birth.

Every time I seem to hurt myself, the team at Hudson Family are always able to put me back together with the extra care that one dreams of but doesn’t always get in a medical office. For over 10+ years I have been going to the office and am grateful for them. Even when I moved out of state, I would make sure to come in for an adjustment when I was back in the area, or would plan a trip just to visit the office. I mean when a doctor is good, you do what you can to stick with them. I highly recommend this office – from the staff to the docs, everyone is exemplary.

John is wonderful! I have been going to chiropractors since I was young do to a back injury. John is the first chiropractor to address my problem areas with complete confidence and professionalism. Every time I leave this office I think why did I wait so long! Definitely getting on a regular monthly appointment!

Exceptional customer service and Dr. Mike is amazing. I always feel welcome when I arrive and even feel better when I leave.

Super friendly and knowledgeable support staff. Dr. Bill McGill mostly, and seemingly magically, resolved shoulder/back problem. Definitely going back!
