In order to ensure his patients receive the highest levels of care, Dr. Pape has earned two post-graduate degrees, one in Chiropractic Sports Medicine and a second in Pediatrics, becoming the only Long Island-based Chiropractor certified by the Academy of Chiropractic Family Practice. In addition, Dr. Pape has achieved certifications in the following techniques:

Activator Methods
Graston Technique
Webster Technique
NIMMO Trigger Point Therapy

Dr. Pape has also been using cold laser therapy in his practice for the last 5 years, staying on the forefront of cutting edge healing modalities. Laser therapy uses light to heal, expediting the patient’s healing process, allowing them to return to their normal daily lives more quickly.

Armed with the knowledge he has amassed after graduating Summa Cum Laude from New York Chiropractic College as well as the training and experience he has received in his 13 years of practice, Dr. Pape realizes that the absence of pain or symptoms is not the presence of health. Thus, he uses his Three to Thrive Method, a 3 pronged approach to allow his patients to thrive, not just survive. Also, not wanting the wellness message to be confined solely to his office, Dr.Pape hosts a weekly public access cable show on Cablevision channel 20 and gives regular informational lectures on topics ranging from the dangers of inflammation and vaccinations to the ever-expanding fields of anti-aging, wellness care, and epigenetics.
