I have been coming to Shin Wellness for over 7 years. I primarily see Dr. Gallego for chiropractic adjustments and she is the absolute best! She has helped me with so much more than chiropractic issues and always goes above and beyond for her patients. The rest of the Shin staff is also fabulous! Everyone is welcoming and inviting and really takes the time to listen to your needs. I cannot picture my life without Shin in it!

My therapist is competent, experienced and humane. Besides the above skills, she is also able to understand and connect therapeutically and as a person. The skills she brings to a session are extraordinary and she makes connections between events that would not appear relevant at first. Admire and respect Dr. DeSouza and her skills.

I’ve been going to Shin Wellness since the summer of 2007. I haven’t gone anywhere else for my chiropractic needs since. Even when I haven’t been there in a while, I always return because of the quality of service and customer care. Shin Wellness is one of Miami’s gems when it comes to health and wellness services.

Can't say enough positive things about this place. This was my first time seeing a chiropractor and it went so much better than I ever expected!
I called the office because I recently had a back injury and was pretty certain I had a pinched nerve. The two ladies at the front desk were so helpful and caring and put me on a wait list for same day appointment in case someone cancelled
Sure enough someone did! I was able to receive two different treatments and an alignment that made me feel ten times better and actually able to sit down without screaming
Dr. Wendy is simply wonderful and I can't

I have a large frame and I used to drive to Pembroke Pines to see a chiropractor as it can be difficult to find someone having the healing hands able to manage bigger guys. A lot of my firefighting comrades would go, walk in hunched over in pain and walk out normally. His office closed. It was not easy to find another until I found Dr. Sam Rassoul at Shin Wellness in Miami. He's very knowledgeable, listens to you, formulates his treatment plan and has the capable and magic healing hands to get you back in service, corrected, back on the bike, or just back to normal. It took a while to find

What an amazing place! Right when you walk in you are greeted with warm smile's from the office staff who are there to help and assist. Upon my second visit, they greeted me by name, and continue to make me feel welcomed. They are so kind, and attentive. When I had a question about a service, they not only shared the information with me, but also shared with me what my insurance would cover. That is going above and beyond.
I have never been a fan of chiropractic care, however I gave it a try Because I could hardly turn my head, and was in so much pain when I tried. I couldn't believe

Chad for acupuncture is incredible! I'm one who is not a fan of needles, but his work is magical! I've had a knee injury from back in high school when I played softball and after over 20 years he fixed/cured my knee!!! You leave the session feeling so zen and the days after even better! I highly recommend this facility. The staff is great and very friendly.

I have been through a whirlwind of treatment for my back injury over the years and no one has been as ignorant or selfish as this lady . Chiropractors are not accepted as members of the medical community and have about half the schooling as most Doctors . After a treatment she convinced me was in my best interest and upon looking backwards clearly outside of her scope of practice, I had to immediately go to the Emergency room for a two level epidural as she had aggravated the injury so severely i was left unable to walk or stand . Good luck and i hope she doesn't ruin any one else body and

CHAD IS A HEALER! Wow! I found this place about a year and half ago, started going and loved it. Took a break for a while but went back yesterday because I fell in the rain down four steps before Christmas and have not able to bend over, tie my shoes, basically day to day sitting and moving I was In constant pain. I made an appointment with chad, Maria the front desk is so nice, and went to see chad yesterday. He said this morning I should feel better And guess what! I CAN BEND, stretch, move. I'm like 85% back to normal after one session! I can not wait to return next week! Thank you Chad

Love them and their service! All the doctors are super nice and the scheduling is super flexible and they even give you a reminder the day before your appointment, which I surely appreciate. I go for neurofeedback and therapy, and it surely helps! If you're thinking of doing neurofeedback, this is the place to do it!!

Condition: degenerative disk disease
I'm a 6'4 , 230 lbs sport guy. I played basketball and worked out at the gym almost everyday, until I hurt my back (from L5 to L1) as the time went by. It was constantly painful that I couldn't even iron my shirt or do any other physical activity.
For months I tried nonsurgical treatment with a physical therapy which didn't work at all. The surgery options are way too risky to even try it. I kept doing research for options, then I found the spinal decompression and it has been a total success.

LESS PAIN (indefinitely) THAN WHEN YOU ARRIVE!!!!
I am very surprised to read the ONE negative review by "KAREN B", but even more surprised at her ridiculous "accusations" and "BIG RED FLAG".
I have been a patient of Shin Wellness since 2006 and have been treated by not only Dr. Gallego, but by almost every one of the practitioners there and am totally shocked by the comments made on the above mentioned review.
As far as MY experience at Shin....it has always been the exact OPPOSITE of what Karen B. has described in her review and I am extremely PLEASED with Shin

MORE PAIN THAN WHEN YOU ARRIVE!
I was excited to visit this facility because of all the GREAT reviews I read here on Yelp about Shin.
My personal experience was anything but GREAT.
First, no one picks up the phone. Constant answering machines....and then they don't return you call. You have to spend all your time calling hoping someone will pick up.
Then they don't give you any information about services or prices....they want to check your insurance first. And they will only except out of network insurances. BIG RED FLAG! This means they only want to con your insurance out of money
