Michael Shippy by Terry Thompson


That cracking you hear? OK, so maybe it sounds like your bones, but it’s really just pain and tension leaving your body. And you’re in good hands — quite literally — with Michael Shippy. He’s been one of our readers’ favorite chiropractors for several years, with his appealing bedside manner and a four-legged assistant who lets you know he cares about his patients and his own canine companion. When it comes to adjustments, a laying on of hands from him makes a difference.
