Chiropractic care has helped my children and I avoid major and prolonged illnesses for the three years we've been under Active Life's care. The improvements to the children's moods and attention span were immediately noticeable in the beginning.

From the friendly staff to the adorable childrens' play area, Active Life has made me feel comfortable being a new patient to the practice! The adjustments I have been having have improved my posture which has made my work day a lot easier and my back more comfortable by the end of the day.

I was in constant pain before I started getting chiropractic work with Dr. Jeaniene! Now that pain is gone!

Dr. Jeff helped my achilles tendon problem so much so that I can walk without pain.

Not only am I able to move, bend, and stretch like never before, my peace of mind is better knowing that I am better. I have learned healthier habits with food and supplements that make me feel better every day thanks to Dr. Jeff!

Roger Maffei

I have been a patient for five years and I have never felt better. My back and legs are not aching, my neck and shoulders are great again. My point would be this...your body is a piece of machinery, if you don't maintain it it will fall apart eventually.

Kathryn Desjardins

Having suffered with recurrent shoulder dislocations for 10 years and a surgery, I came [to Active Life] as a last resort. I was skeptical to say the least. It worked! Thanks to Dr. Jeff no more shoulder surgeries and recovery from dislocations is a breeze!

ALC has made a tremendous difference in my overall health. I  considered chiropractic care since the birth of my twins and having a career that is very physically intensive (carrying lots of camera gear & being constantly on the move). I needed to change something to reduce the pain and the wear and tear I was putting on my body. I've known Jeaniene for years and she's always had a positive manner about her and it flows right through to her practice and all who work there. I feel I am in capable hands. They allow my body to heal itself. I feel at peace and that is one thing as a busy Mom, photographer, wife, and a million other roles that I can do for just me and it helps me be better at all of my "jobs". I carry life's load better with ALC's maintenance plan and see it as a justified invetsment in my overall health and well-being.

Jeaniene is the best chiropractor I have ever been to! I have seen chiropractors for the last 35 years! Her techniques are different, intuitive and they work! I highly recommend her.

In April, I had my 4th baby and 4th c-section. Two weeks after surgery, I went to pick up my newborn and my back locked. I was so nervous and needed immediate attention. I went to see Jeaniene Donovan at Active Life Chiropractic on Pleasant Street in Newburyport. Within two weeks and five adjustments I was 100%. As an Newburyport Mothers Club member and mother of two, Jeaniene has great experience and understanding for moms and babies. She is ready when you need her. My daughter is now eleven weeks old and has developed a milk protein allergy which has brought on great discomfort from gas and colic symptoms. Today, while our older kids were taking swim lessons, I asked Jeaniene if "infant-adjustments" would help. Jeaniene gently worked with baby Mairead and just as she had helped me, she helped Mairead feel immediate comfort.

I came to Active Life with a hamstring problem that I had had for a month or more with pain that just kept getting worse. Just after 5 visits I felt a difference. I had been to another chiropractor for a month that never seemed to solve either of my problems. I can say that treatment from ALC has helped me to have little to no pain and has made me stronger.

Active Life is a wonderful, nurturing, highly capable and holistic minded group of professionals. The approach at Active Life is gentle and kind; yet very effective. For many years now, our family has benefited tremendously from all adjustments, whether they were maintenance and prevention based or assistance in healing from serious injuries.They were particualry helpful after a serious head-on car accident and a key component to our healing process. We highly recommend Active Life for anyone looking to have a good experience with alternative medicine in the quest for authentic well being. If intergity, knowledge, expertise, compassion and a terrific bed side (actaully, .."table side") manner are what you are looking for in a Chiropractor, look no further!

I have thoroughly enjoyed and benefited from my work with Dr. Jeaniene. My body has responded wonderfully to the chiropractic work. Their guidance, expertise and support has allowed a physical re-alignment that I know deeply supports me on many levels – beyond just the physical. Their gentle encouragement –“don’t push too hard - listen to your body”- reminds me to trust the innate wisdom that lies within. Though we may have all the wisdom and truth with in us, it is necessary to connect with others and support one another. Jeaniene is  excellent and generous in her support.
