To start, I began seeing Dr. Shepard not for traditional chiropractic adjustments, but because he is the only person in the area who practices ART (active release technique), to my knowledge. The office is small and orderly, and an emphasis is definitely placed on a strong relationship with patients. Not having been for ART before, and not knowing much about my issue, the doc spent the first visit (which was free) trying to pinpoint my problems. Some ART was done and I was sent on my way. Subsequent visits resulted in the doc really nailing down the source of my problems. He helped alleviate my pain via the ART and also helped to address some biomechanical tendencies of mine that often result in further aggravation. Dr. Shepard is receptive to the unique demands of my sport and his knowledge of biomechanics was far superior to what I expected from a chiropractor. If you have pain -especially if you’re an athlete- go see Dr. Shepard.”                           Zach N.   – From Yelp

I came to him in April after being laid up for almost three months due to foot pain. This pain had been diagnosed as plantar fascitis by several medical professionals. I had received treatment ranging from dry needling to electro-shock wave therapy. None of this had really helped significantly, and I was starting to wonder if this issue would ever resolve.
Dr. Shepard told me, within 5 minutes of an assessment, that my problem was, more precisely, a tight, deep muscle in my foot. He performed ART, and advised me to stop this other slew of treatments.
I was able to run again within days of this treatment, and continued to self-manage as he had advised. Although I am not 100%, I was able to run my first race in months about 4 weeks after seeing Dr. Shepard. I can’t recommend him enough for your own sports injury.
