Very welcoming atmosphere and Dr. Shannahan clearly demonstrates years of professional competence. I had been in a car accident and while my primary care doctor was only able to recommend rest and medication Dr. Shannahan was able to alleviate the majority of chronic pain and return my focus by the end of the first visit. The X-rays he took were exceptionally high quality and allowed him to easily explain to me exactly what his plan for future visits would be going forward. After the 3rd visit I was begining to feel better in some places than before the accident. Dr Shannahan did set realistic expectations for how far he believes my recovery can progress but I look forward to the rest of the treatments as I already feel significantly better than I had after my accident and am excited of how much more mobility and strength I can regain

I first went to Dr. Tim with severe pain from a pinched nerve in my neck. That was 14 years ago. He addressed my pain issue within a few weeks of treatment. More importantly, he made me realize the value of regular adjustments. I always leave with an extra spring in my step, and a smile on my face.

Dr. Tim is excellent at what he does. He is very knowledgeable and explains everything clearly, which makes you feel confident and well taken care of. One of the tools Dr. Tim has is decompression machine, and after just a few sessions, and adjustment my lower back pain was completely gone. It has been over a year now and I’m still pain-free. The clinic is also very organized. His receptionist is friendly and helpful, and scheduling appointments is easy. You even get text reminders so you never forget your appointment. Overall, a great experience. I highly recommend Dr. Tim to anyone looking for effective and professional chiropractic care.

This is a one in a million find. Having been a doctor for over 30 years, no one else has been able to help me with my spinal problems to the extent that this doctor has. Doctor Tim exceeds every expectation.
