`Rock of Ages ‘ Star, Constantine Maroulis, Featured in NY Chiropractic & Physical Therapy Video
Dec. 14th, 2013 – Staten Island, New York–Tony Award Nominated, ‘Rock of Ages’ Star, Constantine Maroulis Featured in NY Chiropractic & Physical Therapy’s Holiday Music Video
NY Chiropractic & Physical Therapy is proud to announce that one of the most popular vocalists to come out of the American Idol phenomenon, Constantine Maroulis, has recorded a holiday music video in their honor, performing a Christmas rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”
Maroulis is no stranger to soulful rock and roll—his most notable appearance on Broadway was as Rock of Ages front man, Drew Boley, a role for which he received a prestigious Tony Award nomination. More recently, Maroulis has joined the cast of Jekyll & Hyde, and is quoted as performing with a “triumph of vocal pyrotechnics,” a common understanding amongst those who are familiar with his raw and haunting resonance.
In this version of “Hallelujah,” originally covered by NYC based band Cloverton, the story of the birth of Jesus Christ is retold with moving verses that uplift the listener. Their rendition brings out the spiritual tones of the original song, and leaves listeners with a reminder of the true meaning of Christmas. Maroulis recorded the song and video alongside two of his Jessie’s Girl band mates, an 80’s powerhouse cover band that performs weekly at the Canal Room in Manhattan.

Dr. John Piazza Among Featured Presenters at NY & NJSIPP Pain Medicine Symposium
Oct. 28th, 2013 – Staten Island, New York —The 2013 NY & NJSIPP Pain Medicine Symposium will be held from the 8th to the 10th of November at the Hyatt Regency on the Hudson, featuring a conference topic of Evolving Advanced Pain Therapies. NY Chiropractic & Physical Therapy’s Dr. John Piazza, a board certified chiropractor, will be a featured presenter at the symposium.
With over 400 healthcare professionals gathering to lecture on the different aspects of pain management, the conference will expand upon pain management and interventional pain management within the scope of perfecting these practices for a better foundation of patient treatment.
A focus of the symposium will be centered on non-invasive forms of pain management. As a growing field of medicine moving from behind the stigma of holistic treatment, non-invasive pain management is explored specially by those who practice Chiropractic care. Dr. John Piazza has extensively explored the benefits of specialized exercises for sufferers of lower back pain.
By presenting treatments and providing clinical evidence of the effectiveness of exercise and therapy modalities such as clinical Pilates, core exercises, yoga, and the use of innovative neuromuscular re-education tools like SpineForce, Dr. Piazza advises that sufferers of lower back pain are more likely to build up core muscle that can gradually decrease discomfort in a self-sustaining way. The exploration of this non-invasive approach is absolutely necessary, taking into account the estimated 44 million Americans who suffer from lower back pain on a daily basis. It is estimated that between $33 to $55 billion is spent yearly in direct medical cost for the treatment of lower back pain.

NYS Chiropractic Group Appoints Dr. John Piazza as President of District 5
Dr. Piazza aims to use appointment as catalyst to combat prescription drug addiction
Sept. 17, 2013 – Staten Island, NY–After almost 20 years of dedication to the Chiropractic profession, the New York State Chiropractic Association (NYSCA) has appointed NY Chiropractic and Physical Therapy’s Dr. John Piazza as President of their District 5. NYSCA has been the governing foundation for Chiropractic service standards since 1970.
With this announcement, Dr. Piazza launches his initiative towards decreasing Staten Island’s dependency on prescription medications. He vehemently encourages the usage of Chiropractic care and Physical Therapy as a viable alternative to drugs for the treatment of injuries from work, auto-accidents, or any chronic pain. This supports the views of New York State Assemblyman Michael Cusick, who has worked tirelessly to curtail the disturbing hike of prescription medication addiction. When reflecting on one of last month’s articles in the Staten Island Advance concerning prescription drug abuse, Cusick said, “Staten Island has the highest rate of addiction and pill overdose deaths in the city, a harrowing realization.”
By working with local legislators on a state level, Dr. Piazza continues to lobby on behalf of NYSCA to broaden the coverage available to Workers’ Compensation patients. This is following the 2010 legislation that restricts patients from having access to long term treatment for chronic pain. Senator Diane Savino makes a note of this legislation when asked about the epidemic on Staten Island: “Patients turn to pain medication because they no longer have access to services such as chiropractic care, and often this is how the cycle of addiction begins.”
Dr. Piazza hopes to further educate the public on recent innovations in the Chiropractic field, so that they understand there are alternative options for pain management. “We have enhanced our ability to lessen the need for prescription drugs or surgery,” he said recently. “Significant advancements in the Chiropractic field are comprised of new techniques and modalities, such as Laser Therapy devices that emit healing photons of light from a hand-held device. There is also the SpineForce 3-D Exercise Technology, which is the first FDA cleared machine designed to pinpoint and strengthen the 180 deep spinal muscles that improve strength, balance, coordination, proprioception, posture and range of motion all in one unique machine.”
