Kim Gentes16:50 18 May 19Over the years I've been in need of seeing a good chiropractor from time to time. As a person who plays sports and exercises regularly (3-5 time per week), I've had occasion to hurt myself or simply cause discomfort from poor practices. This last year, I hurt myself a couple of time playing ice hockey and came in (via a recommendation) to see Dr. Sherman.I was very pleasantly surprised with his approach, his communication and his skill as a practitioner. Everything was always clearly communicating. All the options were presented at various times and he game me enough information, and while making recommendations, left me in full control of decisions on what I felt best about regarding treatment. He did the background work to figure out my current condition before treatment course was determined, both asking me about important sports injury history and getting examinations of my spine.He was always extremely diligent with any adjustments, taking a long time and care to be sure the entire musculature frame was properly stretched and relaxed. Often, my back and nerves would simply reset without any jarring adjustments. His diligent use of stretch and massage of the muscles and frame made any other movement almost ancillary, but always effective.Finally, Dr. Sherman was there to make my health the first priority, not the number of treatments or extent of his invoice. In fact, recently when I returned because of a month long battle with lower back pain, he examined me and noticed that I was walking with extreme pronation. He asked to examine my shoe and quickly noticed the arch support had completely collapsed on my old shoes. He quickly recommended I simply buy a new pair of supportive shoes. In literally 24 hours after wearing a new pair of shoes my lower back was completely well.The point is, he recommended something that was best for me, even though it didn't benefit his practice at all. I appreciate a person with that kind of integrity.read more
