All I can say is UH-MAZING!!!!! I've never had a massage like this before. The massage therapist Valentina was wonderful and very strong lol I was so sore the next day but it hurt sooooooo good! Can't wait for my next appt. read more

Although this place is out of the way for me, I'm glad I tried it out. For starters, I was expecting parking to be a hassle and was pleasantly surprised it wasn't. The office is beautiful with soothing asian inspired decor, the staff was attentive and polite. I have to give my masseuse, Valentina an A+ for taking care of the tension in my shoulders. I have limited experiences with massages, but this massage seemed a little less like a traditional swedish massage and it was wonderful! My only minor complaint is that it is not open on weekends and only open until 7 which means I have to book it from work to make it to a 6 pm appointment with traffic. But I highly recommend it if you can fit it into your schedule! read more

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! read more

Once again Shin saved me. I hurt myself doing my crazy workouts in Crossfit and weight training. Somehow they fixed me in one visit so I'm back in the gym. LOVE THEM ALL!!! read more

Shin Wellness is amazing in all aspects! Making an appointment was easy, I was welcomed by the attentive front desk gals with smiles:) Julio the chiropractor assistant was very nice. Dr. Gallego was super thorough and has a kind heart..she truly cares about my wellbeing. After that I had a session with Cyndee where she taught me how to do myofascial release..this woman knows her shit inside and out! I also had a Great opportunity to try acupuncture with Chad ( due to a cheap, Livingsocial coupon). He is the Best Acupuncturist EVER, I had these treatments in the past with others but never really felt any relief and I began to be skeptical about it but I gave it one more try by buying that discount deal and in just one session I was pain free the next day. I couldn't believe it. Chad is like John of God! Since I am a frequent client there I have been blessed to have met almost every employee there and have to say I have never met so many nice people in one area. They really make you feel like family! I LOVE Shin Wellness so much Fiancé, his Brother and my Friends all get to enjoy what this center has to offer. You will not be disappointed, trust me! read more

DON'T BOTHER!!!! BUY A TENNIS BALL, PLACE IT BETWEEN YOUR BACK AND THE WALL AND MASSAGE YOURSEL!!! This at least will loosen something. I went in for a shoulder issue that had been lingering for a month. They did not take my isurance, but Based on the reviews, I made an appointment and paid out of pocket, sure that i would be cured in the same day or couple of days after at least. 2 visits later, ( they failed to mention that the follow up was an additional $80.00 along with the $260.00 for the 1st visit) $340.00 spent, and i still had the same pain. Diagnosis was i had scoliosis, ( shoulder still killing me). After second visit, I was told I can get treatment and possibly correct my scoliosis, for &1800.00, :((( (SHOULDER STILL HURTS) Oh i can pay in installments.. WTF??? REALLY? Bad choice on my part to have every step foot in this place. Smart choice, I didn't fall for the trap. I found a Neuromuscular therapist that cured me in 30 minutes for way way way less. DON'T FALL FOR THE TRAP read more

I have tried acupuncture just about everywhere - from community rooms to Canyon Ranch. No one beats Chad from Shin Wellness - NO ONE! His method of acupuncture with massage is simply PERFECT! read more

First off, I would like to say that Dr. Wendy Gallego is the antithesis of arogant and self centered or whatever that rude, free ride digging women had mentioned in some RIDICULOUS review she wrote. And hey karen b, you were the one that took it public, not Dr. Gallego, by posting it all here... this is America, if you can speak on it, so can she... we all have the right to speak and damn sure have the right to defend ourselves especially when it involves slanderous, erroneous remarks. Personally I am glad that you will not be back to SHIN, the positive, healing energy that SHIN Wellness exudes does not need to be tainted with any negativity or bad vibes. For those of you that read this post, Dr. Wendy Gallego is the driving force behind the positive attitude and atmosphere. I have NEVER ONCE seen that woman upset, angry, off tilt, rude, arrogant, or otherwise... and she will not accept anything less from anyone that works there from the other Chiropractors, to the masseuses, to Chad B, to the staff at the front desk (Hi guys..), to the Neurofeedback staff, to Cindy, did I miss anyone?? I apologize if I did, none the less you will be hard pressed to find one rude person in that office.. SHIN Wellness is my happy place... That being said... I tried to keep this short and sweet but I guess WHEN YOU MEET SOMEONE THAT HAS MADE SUCH AN ENORMOUS IMPACT ON YOUR LIFE AND HAS CHANGED YOU FOR GOOD, AND SO MUCH FOR THE BETTER, it is difficult not to share... 5 years ago I fell to my knees in the shower and could not move or feel my legs for what seemed 5 days, but was probably more like 5 minutes, I was in excrutating pain. That happened on a Friday, a colleague shared Dr. G's info with me and I spoke to her on Saturday (the office is not open on the weekend so she took this call on her own free time, that alone should be a "RED FLAG" as to the integrity and genuine care she has for people in pain...karen b!), went in for a consult on Monday, MRI Tuesday (she will not diagnose without an MRI, another cheers for making 100% sure she is treating you correctly), went back to review the images and she was spot on. She told me what the deal was before the MRI. Anyway, by that weekend she had already provided me with tremendous relief from pain and immobility. I then worked with Chad Bailey (this guy's unbelievable, you gotta see him for some Accu, you will not regret it) and Cindy (incredible energy and passion this woman... it's awesome). Double herniation L4,L5, REAL BAD! no less than 6-8 months later I was golfing again, this alone was having life back for me. A year later I did a string of P90X for like a year and a half. In 5 years under SHIN's care, I have quit smoking cigarettes (23year habit) for 4 years now, quit coffee for 2 1/2 years now, I stopped taking Over the Counter meds and Perscription drugs, I am in the best shape of my life at 40, and because of Dr. G and her staff I have been educted on how to take much better care of my back. To say that Dr. Wendy Gallego gave me my life back is the biggest under statement known to man. They put up with alot of my shinnanagins over the last 5 years, I am very active and I like to do crazy things sometimes.... Dr. G just nods her head, tells me I'm gonna give her a heart attack and tells me to make sure I come to see her if anything goes wrong... As far as the "gettting rich" comment posted karen b., I can attest first hand to the fact that pretty much the last thing on Dr. Gallego's mind is getting paid. As a matter of fact, I truly believe that if she did not have bills to pay and employees that depend on her, she wouldn't charge a thing. I truly believe tha she has a deep, burning passion to make people better and to make a positive impact on people's lives. It is a rare and beautiful thing to come across a HEALTH CARE PROVIDER THAT REALLY CARES ABOUT YOU AND YOUR WELL BEING AND NOT THE PAYCHECK. So those of you in pain... please please, please DO NOT take karen b's advice, rather do the opposite, do yourself one of the biggest favors you can and RUN TO SHIN WELLNESS as fast as you can. They will take care of you. I could go on and on about this but, let's put it this way... My name is Carlos B, I am at SHIN on a regular basis and you are more than welcome to ask me about any of my dealings with Dr. Wendy Gallego and SHIN Wellness. That woman deserves the highest praise and an award for one of the most amazing Doctors I have ever been blessed to come across in my entire life!!! Dr. G, I can't thank you enough for all that you have done and continue to do for me. Outside of your enegmatic Chiropractic skills and deft touch, your passion to heal and educate patients is unparrelleled. I admire and commend you for all that you do and all that you are! Personally I refer as many people as I can to this practice, and will continue to do so... Love you guys, see you all soon!!! read more

If I could live at Shin Wellness, I would!! I have been a patient of Shin for numerous years now and I adore all of the practitioners and staff that work there. They always treat me with the utmost care and professionalism, they really treat me like family. I would highly recommend Shin to anyone who is in need of chiropractic care, accupuncture, massage or rehab therapy. They also have great classes on the roof and unique seminars which are always so enlightening. Dr. Gallego and her staff are simply the best. I cannot say enough amazing things about them!! read more

5 stars is not nearly enough!! Dr. Gallego has been treating our entire family for years. She's truly a rare find, in that she actually listens to what your challenges are and then discusses potential treatments & will research further to ensure you're on the right path to wellness! (and we all know how rare that is these days!!) She's helped me on numerous occasions, putting my hips back in place after birth, as well as back/neck pain throughout the years. She's also been adjusting my oldest Daughter since she was about 9 months old & helped relieve chronic ear infections. Both of our children LOVE to see Dr. Wendy because she "gets all the popcorn out" (this comes from my 4yr old who has sensory issues & is terrified of other Doctors!) Dr. Gallego is by far the best Doctor I know!! If you're looking for someone who actually cares about your overall wellness, will actually listen to you & research further to ensure you're receiving the best medical care, give her a call! read more

I am so very happy to have found this place after my car accident. The office has parking, the staff answers phone calls, and never seems hectic. The staff is VERY friendly, nice, and courteous. Yasmin only works Mondays but her massages are wonderful. And then there is Dr. Gallego. So nice, patient, and truly cares. She takes her time with every patient. I also tried the decompresion machine and thought it helped the one time I used it. But I am feeling better and better after each visit that I no longer feel I need to make the commitment to that course of treatment and am sticking to regular adjustments. Unfortunately, I have not been able to comment on Chad regarding acupuncture. Everything I have heard is that i'm missing out! SHIN is a WIN! read more

I've been going to Shin for (yipes!) seven years. Arrived with a 25 year lower back problem and, through the dedicated efforts of Dr. Wendy Gallego and her staff, have not only thoroughly managed that issue (no pain for years) but changed my entire body for the better. Of note is Exercise Physiologist Cyndee Krantz, who is, quite simply, a magician, and able to diagnose your issues with a glance (fixing them takes a bit longer). Also, in addition to various other therapies, I used the DRX for a six-week period which for me worked as advertised - quite amazing really. These are very smart, caring people who are the most accomplished experts in managing back pain I've ever dealt with - and the place is a pleasure to visit. I recommend Shin to everyone. read more

It's been a while since I've been here but from my experience, Wendy Gallego is the best chiropractor I have a ever been to. She really makes sure she can fulfill your needs as much as possible. And great treatment. Also her staff is amazing, like Julio very friendly. read more

I was able to AVOID surgery at SHIN WELLNESS.. I had Mortons neuroma in both feet. With the whole body approach at Shin Wellness, and the expertise and determination of Dr. Gallego I received adjustments and full spectrum of treatments (and healing), As well as Acupuncture with the gifted Chad Bailey. Thank you Dr Gallego, Chad, Cyndee,Valentine,Melody, for all your help and patience with me, while relieving my Mortons neuromas as well as realigning my entire body and mind and spirit. Thank you.. and your incredible caring staff ... for all you do in helping sooo many.....You are the very best.. I am forever grateful and recommend yo and your services to anyone looking for relief.

Shin Wellness gives good everything! After my recent auto accident, my physician urged me to go see Dr. Gallego. I was hesitant at first since I had negative experiences in the past with chiropractors, but I have to say, from the moment I walked in to the place, I felt so well cared for, I was glad I came. The entire staff welcomes you and all of them are so sweet. I have been getting care for several weeks now and I am feeling so much better. Shin Wellness is a great experience! read more

Massage so good I found myself drifting off anticipating the next one... Every treatment (chiropracter, accupuncture, massage) I've had at Shin Wellness has been delivered with so much love, care, and professionalism, I am so grateful that these healers are available to me and treat me so well... read more

I have been going to Dr. Wendy for years and I must say she and her staff are just wonderful. The front desk always is pleasant and professional. Dr. Wendy always takes her time with you and is never rushed to get out the door to the next patient. I have been to various chiropractors but she really is the best. Her adjustments are gentle and believe me my ankles and back are really happy these days. I have never had acupuncture at Shin but I do get massages and their two massage therapists Valentina and Yasmine are fabulous. The office is very zen and immaculately clean. The Dr. Wendy and the entire staff is first class and that's why I continue to go back. read more

This is my second time coming for acupuncture and it was the best. Where massages do well for most, acupuncture works better for me for the long run. Anytime I need a fix, I always come here. They're all very professional, courteous and make me feel very comfortable. Each time I've had Chad for my acupuncturist and he does a phenomenal job!! Totally worth every penny. read more

There is NO place like Shin Wellness!!! All of their practitioners are TOP NOTCH!!! I've been adjusted by Dr. Gallego who is patient, kind, caring, understanding and has a healing touch. Whether I've had painful headaches or just needed an adjustment before running a race she's been exceptional. Valentina and Yasmine have both been amazing with their healing hands for deep tissue, sports therapy and lymphatic massage. I've had a couple episodes of treatment with Chad for sleeplessness and ankle and shoulder pain. All of which have been resolved after treatment with acupuncture. Physical therapy with Cindy has been incredibly educational. She's taught me so much about posture and it's daily effect on the body. HUGE thanks to Dr. Gallego and her friendly staff at Shin Wellness for the high regard for patient care and wellness. read more

A friend had recommended Chad for acupuncture at Shin years ago. He was really great and I never forgot my experience. There are so many good things to say about Shin I don't even know where to start. First of all, when you call or go in, Karen, Maria, and Julio are amazing. There was a point in time where I was seeing them more than probably anyone else in my life, and they truly make you feel like family. About 7 months ago, I was dealing with a number of issues: chronic sinus congestion, shoulder and back pain and stiffness, emotional trauma. I initially came to Shin for Neurofeedback. Dr. DeSouza is extraordinary-- She is warm, compassionate, and really knows her stuff. It is hard to find someone who does this work that actually cares about you. I've done Psychotherapy and EMDR with her as well. This work has enabled me to make real changes in my life and relationships. Dr. Wendy Gallego (also owner) is phenomenal! She has a true understanding of the mind-body connection. Her chiropractic treatments have helped my back so much, and she was able to pinpoint right away where to make dietary and lifestyle changes. She is so generous and has helped me slowly change my dietary regiment, advised me on supplements, and overall supported me towards healing my sinus issues and beyond. As with any healing journey, it has taken a number of practices to put me on the right path. I can honestly say that Shin Wellness has been and continues to be an indispensable part of my healing, I don't know what I would do without them!! read more

I have been going there for close to 8 years and the positive impact this has had on my life is immeasurable. I have been pain free thanks to the care and attention of Dr. Gallego and her staff. They make my visits there one the highlight of the month. I could hardly put in words the positive Shin Wellness brings to my pain free back-life ! Thank you ! read more

This place is the best!!!!! I could hardly walk when I first came in. Now the pain in my back that was there for years is gone! I will always recommend Shin to anyone I know. Dr. Flores is great explaining exactly what is going on. Also Ahmed the therapist has taught me great exercises. This place has changed my life. read more

Dr. Wendy Gallego is an amazing healer. Her quiet and gentle strength coupled with her generous heart and spirit have made all the difference in my healing process. She takes extraordinary time with her patients offering genuine care and concern for our health and well-being. Julio, her assistant, is one of the warmest and caring individuals I have ever come across. His positive and loving attitude makes ever appointment a joy. Everyone in the office, including Dr. Flores, Maria and Karen, have the same caring spirit and make you feel very much a part of the Shin Wellness Family. I am beyond blessed to have found this healing and peaceful oasis in the desert. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for longstanding relief of any chronic or temporary pain. read more

I have been a patient at SHIN wellness for several years and i wanted to state what a different experience this has been . The staff are most accommodating and the professionals that work at the office are of the highest calibre. Dr. Gallego who owns the practice, is who I usually receive treatment and she has been a special practitioner that not only excels in professionalism but has become a part of my family - in a sense. She has treated me for numerous conditions that if treated by the medical community would of resulted in troublesome pharmaceuticals or worse yet surgery. The funny thing is that I am a licensed pharmacist who dispenses medications for a living. So if I say this, you can take this as the real truth. This is a maintenance program for life that if followed will bring you years of great health and well being. This is not some place you attend for one or two times and expect a cure. This is a place for continued maintenance . The center of Shin offers so many services beyond chiropractic care such as acupuncture, corrective exercise, massage, and many other things. This is a place you can count on as a place as your starting point to good health. Before you venture into a hospital or surgeon; consider this as an alternative. I did and it truly saved me from many consequences. The center must be profitable but they accept insurance and will work with anyone that has the drive and desire to get better. Any money invested here is a move toward you taking your health as a priority. All of the practitioners that work here have been screened and vetted carefully by Dr Gallego. I have attended to many of them and have found professionalism and honesty to be a mainstay quality. In this day , you need to be able to count on the trust and honesty of someone who wants to do good. I thought it was time to make mention of a practice by Dr. Gallego at Shin as she has helped me and so many others Thanks to SHIN I lead a better and healthier life! read more

dr. Flores is the best chiro. I break it, he fixes it. I especially appreciate the fact that he's an athlete so works with the craziness I put my body through. thanks doc! because of your help, I am an IronMan!!! read more

AMAZING!! I have such respect and gratitude for this entire practice. I've been seeking services from Dr. Wendy Gallego almost since she opened for a car accident issue. Chad then helped me on my healing path with acupuncture. I've gone for massages and also some of the classes offered there as well. The staff here is more like deeply caring friends, from Julio to Karen to Maria. Its very clear the heart intention to heal and help that Shin is based upon can be felt from the moment you walk in. I would recommend them to anyone!! read more

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!! read more

The staff could not have been kinder or more caring. The atmosphere is peaceful and one gets treated with respect and courtesy. If you are in pain you will find something in the wide array of services to help you. Thank you to all! read more

i went to shin wellness for several treatments of massage therapy i did enjoy the treatments until i found out how much i was being charged (through my insurance) my insurance was being charged about$185.for each 55 minute massage a little excessive dont you think?? the regular fee for the massage is $95.so i got a lot less massages.so be careful if your insurance is paying for your treatments as shin may charge a very high price which it hink is unethical and unfair read more

If there were ten stars to grant, Shin Wellness would easily qualify. This small group of professionals goes out of their way to look after patients as if they were family. I had two car accidents which left me with various bulging and herniated discs and in constant pain. I have been forced to become open minded with regards to treatment and have tried everything from weekly acupuncture (at other offices), Chinese gua sha, botox for migraines and a myriad of specialists to include various neurologists and pain management practitioners. I have been prescribed way more medications than I can recall. I have also been to many great chiropractors throughout the years but Dr. Gallego has BY FAR been the most effective in treating my pain!! Dr. Gallego and her team have made all the difference with their precise and persistent approach. I am not a big fan of divulging what I consider to be one of this city's best kept secrets but also understand what it feels like to not find relief while in constant pain. This place is a gem. I am very grateful to have found them. read more

Absolutely love coming here for my chiropractic treatments! The staff consistently delivers wonderful and warm customer service. Dr Gallego is fantastic, knowledgeable and takes extra care in each chiropractic session. I highly recommend Shin Wellness for holistic care of your body. read more

From Tai Chi classes to acupuncture, always a great experience. Very nurturing and calming place.

Shin Wellness (http://www.shinwellness.com) in Miami is the best Chiropractic, Acupuncture and Massage wellness place I found around. When I first went there years ago, even before they changed locations, I was very skeptical of the whole chiropractic concept. But boy am I a believer now. The chiropractor there, Dr. Wendy, is amazing. I've tried going to about half a dozen others, and she is by fart the best chiropractor in Miami. She fixed all the issues with my back pain, hasn't bothered me in years. After I hurt my ankle, the acupuncture treatment there took the swelling down right away, and after that and a chiropractic adjustment, I was as good as new in no time. A regular foot doctor told me 6 weeks and charged me a fortune just to see me, after the treatments at Shin Wellness (which are very reasonably priced) it was more like 2 weeks. I love going there, the new location is even better than the previous one was, the Zen atmosphere is very nice, the people are extremely friendly, and the quality of chiropractic, acupuncture and massages offered there are the best around. Go check them out and you won't regret it. read more
