Dr. Nancy Bronstein earned her bachelors degree in Human Biology at the National University of Health Sciences and a second bachelors degree in Computer Science at UMass-Amherst. She also earned her doctorate in Chiropractic at the National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, Illinois.

Upon graduation Nancy and her husband Lawrence Bronstein, also a graduate of NUHS, started a holistic health care facility in Patchogue, Long Island named Suffolk Family Chiropractic Center. At SFCC in addition to traditional chiropractic care, services also included: classical homeopathy, dietary and nutritional consultation, applied kinesiology, and stress management with a licensed psychologist. At SFCC there was a strong emphasis on family health care and there were ongoing workshops and lectures in all aspects of natural health.

In 1991 in order to create a more healthy and rural environment for their family Dr. Bronstein and her family moved to the beautiful Berkshire Hills of western Massachusetts in Great Barrington. Mahaiwe Chiropractic and Health Services was created with the intent of offering a natural health care facility to partner with patients and the surrounding community to nurture the ongoing growth and commitment to complementary and integrative approaches to healthy living.

Dr. Bronstein redesigned the drbronstein.com website in August of 2009 to include the Health Living Forum, a central place for people in Berkshire County to post information about health and green living events, advice and experience.

Currently Dr. Bronstein oversees the FirstLine Therapy® program at MCHS and she is a Certified FirstLine Therapy® lifestyle educator. Dr. Bronstein has a special interest in helping people overcome chronic health problems through lifestyle change and in women’s health issues. She attends multiple nutrition conferences each year.
