Dr. Pollack, since beginning his career, has had a vision of a lifestyle center in Manhattan that would, essentially, be a one-stop-healing experience for busy New Yorkers. Dasha Wellness is the culmination of that vision. It is, Dr. Darren Pollack and his wife Shannon believe, a unique merger of the paths of medical wellness and individually tailored health and fitness regimens. The individual components of the health and fitness “path” include Pilates, physical therapy, personal training, and skincare and spa treatments.

As for the medical and chiropractic part of Dasha Wellness, Dr. Darren Pollack believes in using the best technology available. Cutting-edge equipment such as PhysioRED, Spine Force, Shock Wave Therapy, and Spinal Decompression Therapy, combined with the practice of soft tissue protocols, super-charge the general wellbeing of his patients. But the key to the successful use of many treatment modalities lies in the care and attention Dr. Darren Pollack gives to each patient’s individual experience and needs. His fundamental approach involves creating the proper balance of treatment and wellness solutions for each patient who walks through the doors of Dasha Wellness in Manhattan.
