Dr. Michael Hallacker Chiropractic Center serves Sussex County NJ from Stockholm & Franklin

Dr. Michael Hallacker, Chiropractor, has been helping me enormously for a year now. I've experienced unbelievable pain relief! Hallacker Chiropractic Center is at 2764 Route 23 North, Stockholm, NJ 07460; email is optimumhealth@drhallacker.com. Throughout the community, this family man is better known as Dr. Mike.

When the orthopedist couldn't do more, medication didn't work, physical therapy had minimal results and my pain levels soared, I was not a very happy camper. Hurting all the time stinks and negatively impacts every facet of our lives. At Hardyston Day a year ago, my colleague introduced me to a fellow volunteer - Dr. Mike Hallacker Chiropractic Center Sussex County NJDr. Michael Hallacker of the Hallacker Chiropractic Center in Sussex County NJ. My coworker was a patient of Dr. Mike and praised his work.

Hallacker Chiropractic Center offers a holistic approach. Exercise, nutrition, stress reduction are all part of the healing practices that Dr. Mike preaches. My first stop was Dr. Mike's monthly Wellness Seminar. What a great learning experience, as I knew nothing about chiropractors. Then I literally put myself in Dr. Mike's capable hands - and haven't regretted one moment!

While I knew chiropractors treated bad backs, they help many "body parts." Benefits aren't just for those in pain. Even young athletes rely on Dr. Mike Hallacker Chiropractor to improve performance and maintain fitness, thereby avoiding injuries! The center offers "Optimal Health and Fitness Classes" too!

Terri - Hallacker Chiropractic Center key team memberWorried about medical insurance? So was I because mine didn't cover chiropractic care. The Hallacker Chirpractic Center team will quickly set your mind at ease. Terri will interface with your insurance company and find a win-win solution, so don't let this prevent you from getting help. Terri will also squeeze you into the appointment roster, greet you with a smile and kind word, and make it seem like a pleasure to assist in any way possible. Just call Terri at Hallacker Chiropractic 937-697-2800.

Although Hallacker Chiropractic Center is located in the Stockholm section of Hardyston, NJ, Dr. Mike has regular hours in Franklin as well. He has an office within Nitro Fitness, even more convenient to fit into my schedule. Bet Dr. Mike's athletes also love the second location, as do the members of the Nitro gym!

Hotel-Condo Vacation Homes for Sale in Sussex County NJ - Ski resorts, Spas, Swimming and Golf Courses

Those considering buying condo vacation homes in Sussex County NJ may worry about maintenance issues from afar. Others might not be able to use them frequently and debate the value to owning a ski condo. Several popular resorts - Minerals Resort, The Appalachian at Mountain Creek and Grand Cascades Lodge at Crystal Springs - may be the answers.

Lovely resort condos that set you at the heart of Sussex County golf courses and ski slopes. Monthly maintenance fees cover the utilities at these Sussex condo hotels.

These 3 hotel-style vacation properties in Sussex County NJ run an optional rental program. Owners can permit their condos to be in the rental pool when you won't be using it. Each hotel sets its own rates and restrictions. I'll always help potential buyers obtain those rental details although I my real estate services don't extend to actual hotel bookings.

Minerals Resort and Spa SHORT SALE - Vernon NJ - The oldest (built in 2003) of our current Sussex County condo hotels, Minerals Resort has spectacular indoor and outdoor pools. Kites Restaurant provides delicious meals with a view. Meticulously maintained, the condos come fully furnished - right down to fluffy spa towels & tiny shampoo bottles. Why is this great for those coming from afar? You just pack a suitcase and show up at your Minerals Resort condo! The housekeeping staff will change linens, swab the tub and tidy up behind you. Hotel luxury, ownership prices! (Minerals is in the same Vernon NJ complex as Great Gorge Village, which does have a rental program but no hotel services.)

now a $36000 SHORT SALE at Minerals Hotel & Spa Condo - Vernon NJ

Condos at the Appalachian at Mountain Creek - Vernon are newer than Minerals and have more varied condo layouts - studios plus 1 or 2 bedroom suites. Kitchenettes offer better self-preparation options - important as no restaurant has yet opened within the Appalachian. These condos give you true ski-in ski-out access.

The Grand Cascades Lodge - Crystal Springs in Hardyston is Sussex County's newest condo hotel. I would say it is the most swank. Putting green in front, several golf courses all around. The country club connects to the lodge.

If you and each one of your friends buys a Grand Cascades condo with me as your real estate agent, I would spend time in the Biosphere pool, a year-round paradise. I could then afford some pampering in its Reflections Spa. Ultra luxury!
