Hip Pain Treatment in Santa Clara

Dr. Shaw

General Chiropractic

Santa Clara, CA

Dr. Heather Shaw established Nova Chiropractic Center for Optimal Health in 1995. She previously had a practice in Minnesota for three years before moving to much warmer California to serve those in the Santa Clara community. Because Nova is like a new beginning, our practice name was appropriate as I restarted my practice in a new area. Dr. Shaw loves her job and finds her profession to be so rewarding. She looks forward to helping you with your new beginning to a healthier you. My purpose is to help as many people as possible to live the life they were meant to live. I’ve seen too many deteriorate way before their time. I help people by restoring and maintaining their health naturally through chiropractic care, education and nutrition. “I’m pretty impressed by what chiropractic care can do on a daily basis,” says Dr. Shaw. She finds it remarkable how quickly chiropractic can get people out of pain. Dr. Shaw has seen patients who have been living with pain for years and years. After a few treatments, however, their pain disappeared. Chiropractic allows the body to heal itself. Through chiropractic care and nutritional counseling, Dr. Shaw gives her patients foundational care to help them enjoy greater health. Since she’s added nutrition to her practice, she found that each patient’s quality of life got dramatically better. Dr. Shaw’s patients enjoy the cheerful, relaxed environment. One of our patients said, “I always leave here with a smile on my face.” People look forward to their visit to our office as a highlight to their week.

Dr. Levine

Pediatric

San Jose, CA

At the age of 25 and in great health, the young Mr. Levine found himself in a Chiropractor’s office with his neck painfully stuck to the side. Feeling like he was an 80 year old man, he gladly welcomed a new solution. Instantly, he could move his neck again. Recognizing this true science achieved real results, he decided in that moment to switch careers and immediately he prepared for Chiropractic college. Working day and night on this exciting new craft, he was able to graduate from Palmer College of Chiropractic West almost a year ahead of schedule. In his advanced studies, he found his lifelong passion for his own good health and well-being come together. He had a thriving practice in Santa Cruz for over 20 years. His patients ranged from UCSC students to surfers and agricultural workers. In 2007, he sold his practice to move “over the hill” to San Jose. Using all his know-how, he quickly started a brand new practice in the present location. Dr. Levine was struck with the cultural diversity of Silicon Valley. He was impressed by the hard working clientele who were literally changing the face of the planet with their high tech jobs. Dr. Levine uses traditional as well as non-force techniques with an emphasis on providing patient-specific care. Over the years, he has studied many health-related fields such as nutrition, Standard Process supplement programs, exercise therapy, X-ray technique and muscle testing. Many of his patients come from miles away because he is truly one of the best adjusters around. He has a remarkable ability to determine the exact cause of structural, muscular, nerve or nutrition problems. His treatments are very thorough, combining various therapies to bring mobility, pain relief and relaxation prior to the adjustment. Individual exercise programs are used to improve healing and stabilize the body.
