A Journey Fueled by Personal Experience and Compassion

Growing up in Freehold, Dr. Brokstein played competitive soccer for 28 years and endured recurring bronchial health issues through high school and college. Despite repeated use of medications and inhalers, his symptoms only resolved when he received his first chiropractic adjustment at the beginning of chiropractic school—a pivotal moment that transformed his understanding of true health.

Later, a lower back injury sidelined his athletic pursuits, giving him firsthand empathy for the pain and frustrations his patients experience. Chiropractic care not only brought him quick and lasting relief but also inspired him to help others overcome similar challenges without reliance on drugs or surgery. Initially pursuing pre-med studies, Dr. Brokstein’s commitment to holistic healthcare deepened after witnessing the power of the body’s ability to self-heal when the root cause is addressed.

Deep Community Commitment

Giving back to Freehold is a core value for Dr. Brokstein. The clinic actively supports the community through seasonal food drives, coat collection programs, health fairs, and educational workshops. Hometown Family Wellness Center is a proud member of the Association of New Jersey Chiropractors, underscoring a commitment to ethical practice, excellence, and public service.

Practice Philosophy: Treating the Source, Restoring Wellness

Dr. Brokstein’s approach centers on comprehensive, patient-focused care. He believes that optimal health starts with correcting underlying imbalances and empowering patients to thrive—rather than temporarily masking symptoms. Guided by evidence-based techniques, continuous education, and over 27 years of experience, he delivers full-body chiropractic adjustments and wellness strategies for all ages.

At Hometown Family Wellness Center, every patient’s journey is personalized with time, attentiveness, and a genuine desire to restore health, mobility, and vibrant living.
