About 12 minutes (5.8 miles) from our Freehold office
Colts Neck sits just east of Freehold, an easy run west on County Route 537 into the Monmouth County seat.

Between the equestrian farms off Route 34, the fairways at Hominy Hill and Due Process, and the upkeep that comes with large Colts Neck lots, a lot of local aches trace back to the spine and joints. Dr. Desiree Curley, DC focuses on hands-on chiropractic care for everyday complaints like back pain, sciatica, and neck pain — the kinds of problems that build up from riding, golf, and yard work.
When tension runs deeper, options such as flexion-distraction therapy round out your care. Colts Neck patients can call (732) 780-8802 to book a visit that fits around the school day, a commute, or a weekend spent out on the property.

Why Colts Neck chooses Essential Life Chiropractic
Colts Neck is a township built around open land — the horse farms and riding stables off Route 34, the rolling fairways at Hominy Hill and Due Process, and the wide residential lots in Clover Hill, Carriage Hill, and Phalanx Farms. That lifestyle is active and physical: riders in the saddle, weekend golfers, and homeowners maintaining acres of property, all of which puts real, repeated strain on the spine and joints. Dr. Desiree Curley, DC provides hands-on adjustments and soft-tissue work aimed at exactly that kind of use-it-hard living, tailored to how you actually move.
Getting to care shouldn't be a project. County Route 537 runs straight from Colts Neck into Freehold, the Monmouth County seat, carrying you nearly door-to-door in about 12 minutes. As the practice's only chiropractor, Dr. Curley sees each Colts Neck patient herself from start to finish, so your history and your goals never get handed off. With Saturday morning hours plus weekday appointments into the early evening, it's realistic to fit a visit around school runs to Conover Road and Cedar Drive, a commute, or a stop at Delicious Orchards on the way home.

“Dr. Curley, her mom, and Lauren provide the most personal care for my son and I. Dr. Curley takes the time to look at you as a whole person and not just aches and pains. I feel better every time I leave her office and my 4 month old son does too. My baby has been seeing Dr. Curley since he was 6 weeks old and the difference before and after an adjustment is wild! Highly recommend Dr. Curley for anyone looking for themselves for chiropractic adjustments or for their little one!”
