I’ve been dealing with a pinched nerve in my neck that is causing severe pain in my left shoulder and upper back, as well as numbness. I’ve seen several doctors and chiropractors trying to fix the issue with no relief. A friend suggested Dr. Shahira so I went for it. After treatment one, my pain and numbness was 60-70% better, and it’s been getting better after each treatment. Not to say other Chiropractors are good or bad, but Dr. Shahiras approach almost immediately solved a months long debilitating problem. Not to mention her excellent bedside manner and caring attitude is exactly what you’d want in a clinician. Highly recommended to anyone.
This doctor is truly gifted. She uses very new techniques and equipment. After a 25-yr old back injury, I found that Dr Shahira is the ONLY person that has given me significant improvement. Not only do her treatments relieve pain, but they actually heal damaged tissue. Altho she is extremely popular, it's not impossible to get in to see her. Her office staff is warm, welcoming and efficient. I can't say enough good things about this place.
I have never been to a chiropractor before but out of nowhere I was in severe back pain with numbness in two fingers and leg .After seeing the doctor and the pain management doctor having a shot in my back and taking up to four pain pills and one muscle relaxer a day my daughter-in-law insisted on taking me to see Dr.Shahira. After my first appointment I had no need for pain pills. I highly recommend her she’s knowledgeable, friendly and for me a miracle worker.
