"Are you tired of persistent pain or physical limitations that are holding back your performance? If you’ve tried other physical therapy or chiropractic approaches without lasting results, we offer a different path. We focus on the unique demands of athletes like you, whether you’re hitting the box for CrossFit, logging miles on the road, or lifting your baby from the floor, we go beyond simply treating symptoms. By taking a whole person and rehab-focused approach, the underlying imbalances affecting your strength, mobility, and stability are addressed. We will identify the root cause of your issues and create a personalized plan to not only alleviate pain but also elevate your athletic performance and overall health."
Dr Shane is incredible. I came to him with an IT band inflammation and low back pain that caused difficulty walking well after being in a seated position for more than 15 minutes. Being in a car, getting out of the car and ambulating was an issue. After my sessions with him, the IT issue resolved and my low back pain improved. I no longer have those issues and have exercises and stretches to help prevent them from reoccurring. I had never been to a chiropractor before until Dr Shane. His care, knowledge of body mechanics and passion for sharing better/stronger movement was evident in each session and is the reason I would return to his care.
Dr. Shane is the most amazing, knowledgeable, helpful doctor I have ever been to! I had 2 knee replacements and if it was not for him going above and beyond I would have never healed as well as I did. He helped through directed massage, stretching, strength exercises, chiropractic and helping me understand what I had to do for scarring and breaking up scar tissue. My PT or surgeon did not tell me but Dr. Bruni did. I seriously cannot recommend him high enough. He is so knowledgeable in the body and how it functions. He is a go to for all things in functional medicine and fitness. It takes a lot to impress me especially in the medical field and I can say with a thousand percent certainty you will not be disappointed. He is the best!!!!
Dr. Shane Bruni sets the gold standard in chiropractic care. From the moment I walked into his practice, I felt genuinely valued, understood, and supported every step of the way. His knowledge, precision, and intuitive approach to chiropractic care are unmatched. Dr. Shane doesn't just treat symptoms—he takes time to understand the whole person and tailors his care accordingly. After just a few sessions, I experienced noticeable relief and improvement in my mobility and overall well-being. His professionalism, kindness, and passion for helping others shine through in everything he does. Choosing Dr. Shane for your care is one of the best decisions you can make. His care earns my full confidence and strongest endorsement.
Dr. Shane helped to treat the pain in my lower back that I’d get while running. He made a custom treatment plan for me, and I started seeing results after a couple of visits. Now I don’t feel any pain and am able to run without any worry!
Dr. Shane provided professional and thorough care getting me back to golfing and doing all the things I like to do . He cured my bad knee and gave me confidence to do the at home exercises that continue to keep the knee strong . He knows his craft and is dedicated to you !! Strongly recommend and you won’t be disappointed !
Dr. Shane is one of the most knowledgeable chiropractors I have ever had the privilege of being treated by. His attention to detail is impeccable, as well as the way he treats the ailment, which is an exceptional trait to today’s chiropractic field. I highly recommend his knowledge and excellent treatment/bedside manner.
