Why Sports Medicine Chiropractic?
Skip the Scalpel - Build Wellness
Every patient's solution is unique, but follows three core principles:
- Repairing damaged tissue while building healthy muscle requires commitment/time.
- Removing bad habits involves examining our daily routines and accepting change.
- Our Biological Age is highly influenced by our overall nutrition, fitness and flexibility.
Pedigree matters – choose a Doctor whose values and experience will help you achieve your goals.
My own journey with chronic pain due to Scoliosis has molded my journey from an Athlete, to a Coach, to a Sports Medicine Chiropractor.

Testimonials
Don't Take My Word For It
Dr. Shaun does great work. We love his attention to detail and his systematic approach towards care. He asks meaningful questions, analyzes how we move, applies treatment, and then re-tests. His bedside manner is fantastic, and he always asks for feedback during treatment.
We’re constantly amazed at how he can feel where our problems are. It’s very different from our previous therapists who have just poked and prodded at tight muscles. When Dr. Shaun puts his hands on you, you can sense how he moves through the body layer by layer. Every session, there’s a moment when your eyes pop open and you say “Oh! That’s it! That’s the spot!” We’ve worked with many talented massage therapists and Chiropractors in the past, but no one has been as effective as Dr. Shaun.
Both Len and I feel extremely fortunate to have Dr. Shaun in our lives. We always look forward to our appointments with him, as he’s become the leader of the wellness team we’ve assembled for ourselves. He’s in constant communication with our Personal Trainer, Pilates Instructor, and Massage Therapist. We feel secure knowing that everyone coordinates with Dr. Shaun to safely achieve the goals that we’ve set for ourselves.
We’ve had our fair share of therapy and surgeries over the years, so we feel confident in saying that Dr. Shaun’s treatments are the best we’ve ever had!
As a personal trainer, coach, and health and fitness instructor for over a decade, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a large number of highly skilled practitioners across multiple specialties. Due to the nature of my work, and my own pursuit of fitness, a high physical demand has been placed on my body – creating a constant need for repair and maintenance of my musculoskeletal system. Dr. Shaun has, by far, the most effective skill set I’ve ever experienced. His intuition, creativity, and vast knowledge of anatomy allows him to understand both the root cause of dysfunction and how to best apply an effective approach in therapy. I’ve also been thoroughly impressed by his communication skills and bedside manner, which has immensely added to the the value of his care.
I’m grateful to Dr. Shaun for keeping me in the game and allowing my fitness to continue to improve!
