Carrying on 46 years of Allentown care

Cedar Crest Chiropractic has been a trusted name in Allentown for 46 years. Dr. Petrilak purchased the practice to carry that standard forward, and today he cares for everyone from professional hockey players to newborns, teens, athletes, and grandparents. Over seven seasons he served as team chiropractor for two professional sports teams, and he remains a member of the Pro Hockey Chiropractor Association.

He believes chiropractic is one of the only professions where you can directly and positively change how a person feels in just a few minutes. That belief drives every visit.

A lifelong athlete himself, with a passion for basketball and weightlifting, he understands what it takes to keep an active body moving well, and how much pain can take away from the things you love.

Our Philosophy

The right diagnosis, then the right care

"My goal is to get you the right diagnosis and the best possible care." That's the whole approach. Instead of locking patients into long, mandatory treatment plans, Dr. Petrilak customizes care to what each person actually needs.

Sometimes that means a quick, gentle Activator adjustment to get you out of pain fast. Sometimes it means StemWave regenerative therapy to help damaged tissue heal. It always means treating the cause, not just chasing the symptom.

Your spine, your nervous system, and how you move all work together. So does the care you get here.

Elite-level expertise

The same skills trusted by professional athletes, delivered to every patient who walks in.

Patient Reviews

What our patients say

Real, verified reviews from patients across the Lehigh Valley.

★★★★★

"I came in with numbness and tingling in my left arm and leg, plus lower back pain. After a month of visits my pain is gone in most areas and minimal in the rest. I can move freely again. Dr. Allan is patient, listens, and explains everything he does during adjustments. I highly recommend going here."

"I came to Cedar Crest with extreme sciatica nerve pain. After consultation and diagnosing the issue we started adjustment treatments, and I am slowly feeling relief. I would recommend anyone else suffering to come here. The staff at the counter are also very friendly and polite."
