Chiropractor Michael Shifrin D.C.

I had tried many different things to help with the pain including taking medication, using various creams, using hot/cold patches, and placing things behind my back while driving and nothing seemed to work. I did not want to go see a doctor about this out of fear of them suggesting surgery or heavy medication. Around this time, my mom was going to a chiropractor for headaches she had been dealing with and she suggested I go see one. I had never been to a chiropractor and barely knew what they did, but I wanted a solution for my pain.

My chiropractor was very helpful in explaining what was going on with me and what he wanted to do to help me. Within 3 visits, my back and knee pain was gone and has never returned. He used to be a powerlifter/bodybuilder when he was younger and he could relate to me with all the injuries I have sustained when I worked out and at that point, I could see myself in his shoes. After that moment, I started setting my sights on becoming a chiropractor myself.

After I graduated, I went to New York Chiropractic College so I could get the tools and education I needed to help others the way I was helped. I believe all things happen for a reason and without the back pain I had, I would not be where I am this day.
