Newington Chiropractic

I was referred to Dr. Smith by my martial arts instructor after I injured myself and had very bad pain in my left groin and quad. I didn’t buy into some of the claims of chiropractic adjustments. My wife had some bad experiences at another chiropractor years ago. I admit I was skeptical. But I trusted my martial arts instructor and decided to give it a try.
It is true they offer more than just adjustments. They offer nutritional plans, alternative treatments for many issues, and above all, encouragement. I went to Dr. Smith for my groin pain and instead of just fixing that, he and his wife, Donnett, changed my life.
I started the nutrition plan shortly after starting adjustments on my spine. In 4 months, I lost 50 lbs.
I used to suffer from migraines. I haven’t had a migraine since I started seeing him.
I also had very bad seasonal allergies. I was miserable in Spring time for about 6 weeks. No more. They are almost gone. I can’t say I have zero symptoms but I’m off all allergy medications and I do not dread the Spring anymore.
Since starting martial arts, combined with Dr Smith’s nutrition plan as well as the benefit of the spinal adjustments, I’ve lost 75 lbs, 8 inches off my waist, I feel great, and I’m probably in the best shape of my life at 41 years old.
Thanks Doc!

Dr. Shane and the staff at modern chiropractic are just awesome! I am in my mid forties and I teach Martial Arts, so my body has taken it’s share of abuse over the years. In fact, when I was 17 I was nearly killed in motorcycle accident that resulted in multiple breaks throughout my body.
A couple years after my accident, I began getting pains in my lower back, eventually so severe that I needed a cane to walk. I consulted multiple doctors, who all told me the same thing; I needed to have my spine fused and my career as a martial artist was over.
Well needless to say I was upset and desperate. I had never heard of chiropractic care back in 1989, so I was a little skeptical at my first appt. Well, I never had my spine fused, I get adjusted regularly for the past 25 years and I have been kicking a punching painlessly ever since!
The best part about Dr. Shane’s office is that they aren’t looking to just give you the «cure» to what ails you but to teach you the cause or root of your problem and to arm you with the tools to prevent these issues. It’s an amazing well rounded approach to help educate all the patients on how to live a healthier more active life!

My wife and I went for back care so I’ll start with that: Through Dr. Smith’s adjustments, exercises and treatment, my wife doesn’t even think about her back anymore after spending almost five years in constant pain and with it often completely going following a car accident. My spine and posture feel as good as they have since high school.
When I injured my back on the golf course this fall, Dr. Smith dropped everything and had me in an intensive program going far above and beyond to treat the issue. Instead of needing surgery, I was back at full-​strength in a month.
But to stop there would be selling Modern Chiropractic short. Through Dr. Smith’s incredibly positive attitude and enthusiasm, I was inspired to change my eating habits and stop using my desk job as an excuse to pack on pounds and live an inactive life. I’ve lost more than 40 pounds, seen an end to the stomach and digestive issues that I was dealing with and I wake up with more energy than I ever thought possible.
There isn’t a person I know that I wouldn’t recommend Dr. Smith and Modern Chiropractic to.
