Chiropractic
Why should I have chiropractic care?
When joints and muscles are not functioning properly, abnormal wear and tear is created upon the body because it has to work harder and may create compensations. This can lead to pain, fatigue and a variety of other health issues. The body is resilient, but chiropractic care can assist it in maintaining normal mobility and function.
Do Chiropractors treat only the neck and back?
No. Chiropractors definitely treat the neck and back, but we focus on the joints, muscles and nervous system of the entire body. We treat shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles and feet. We address your body as a whole.
What is an adjustment like?
Adjustments feel like light pressure applied to the spine or to the joints of the body. Most of the time patients feel a sense of release and increased mobility as a result. It is a very comfortable feeling. If it weren't, most patients would never come back.
Are chiropractic adjustments safe?
YES! There are many studies showing that a chiropractic adjustment is extremely safe. It is the best conservative alternative to prescription medications and surgeries. Although some medications and surgeries cannot be avoided, it's important to determine the least invasive approach to your health. A thorough examination will identify the few rare patients who are not good candidates for chiropractic adjustments and might benefit more from other types of treatments.
Who can get adjustments?
Chiropractic adjustments are for ALL ages, from babies to seniors and everyone in between. Adjustments are great for active people as well as the majority of our work force who may sit for 8+ hours a day. Each person is adjusted according to their unique traits, including age, size and pre-existing health issues. Most importantly, we want you to feel relaxed and comfortable.
Is it true that I have to continue treatment for the rest of my life?
This is a trick question. No, you do not have to continue treatment for the rest of your life once you recover from your pain or discomfort, but continued treatment can help maintain your body's optimal function. It is not mandatory, but why not focus on preventative care? Yes, most people seek out chiropractic care to relieve pain, but just like getting your teeth cleaned or having your car's oil changed, your body needs attention even when no mechanical dysfunction seems evident. Over time, you will spend less money on your health if you invest in preventative care.
Active Release Technique
Active Release Technique (ART) is a state of the art soft tissue system/movement based massage technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves.
Headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow are just a few of the many conditions that can be resolved quickly and permanently with ART.
These conditions all have one important thing in common: they are often a result of overused muscles.
Nutrition and Supplementation
Good health has many aspects to it, but a good chemical balance in the body is essential. Many health problems are a result of having too little of one thing (deficiency) and/or too much of something else (toxicity). Our goal is to help you understand how your body works and how to make it last for many years to come. When it comes to diet there is no silver bullet like some may claim.
We carry a wide variety of nutritional supplements in our office. We offer effective natural agents to help your body with everything from a cold or flu to natural regulation of thyroid function. We also offer many supplements for infants and children that are easier for them to take. Taking nutritional supplements should be used to help restore normal function and health to your body. Our supplements are not used to simply control symptoms or as a long-term natural replacement for a prescription drug. It is our goal to help you be healthy without continuing to take a multitude of supplements.
Because our supplements are used in specific combinations and dosages for the treatment of specific illness, we only offer supplements to our patients. In order for these products to be safe and effective, their use should be closely monitored by one of our physicians.
We perform a complete analysis of each individual's current health status to determine potential nutrient deficiencies and/or toxicities. We will create a customized nutritional protocol for each patient to restore their optimal health.
Detox
Toxins in our wolrd are making us tired causing and intensifying our aches and pains
Toxins come from: Your body, pesticides, herbicides, preservatives, industrial compounds, smog, medications, etc. Therefore, using a customized detox for you created by a Physician who understands the process is important.
This type of treatment isn't limited to any type of patient. It can be done for:
A good and effective detoxification program will utilize the:
Weight Loss
We have a wide variety of programs available which are customized based on age, current health status, and how much weight is desired to be dropped.
The doctor will work with you based on your individual needs, timeline and budget. This can be as simple as a diet change and can be as dramatic as diet, detoxing, and hormones.
Obviously if you're in pain, you will not be able to exercise as easily, so if this is an issue and there is any physical limitation to you exercising, then this may be addressed as well.
Average results on the hormone weight loss are 10-20 pounds in three weeks and 20-35 pounds in 40 days. Since we are working with your individual needs, these are long standing changes.
Call 619-688-3089 if you would like to start losing weight today. You will have to fill out the "heath questionnaire" in the patients forms section before your first visit as well.
Methods Utilized:
Bioidentical Hormones
There is no need to read any further unless you struggle with any of the following:
If you are struggling with any one of these issues, then bio-identical hormone therapy may be right for you.
Oprah and Suzanne Somers have brought bioidentical hormones out of the closet and into center stage. Many of you may have heard about them, but dont know if they are for you?
Suzanne Somers has stated that the use of bioidentical hormones have relieved her menopause symptoms and have shed some new light on her health. This form of medicine is called bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (bHRT), which is not to be confused with hormone replacement therapy (HRT), is done with DRUGS, that have been known to cause cancer, increase the risk of heart attacks, etc.
Bioidentical hormones are made in a lab that have the same molecular structure as the hormones made in your body. This is NOT the same, as the synthetics hormones. Pharmaceutical companies cannot patent a naturally occurring substance and therefore cannot patent bioidentical hormones. If prescribed correctly, these hormones can perform amazing and safe changes in the body. But, if overdone some harm could be done, which is why it is important to test, to determine a baseline and re-test continually to evaluate the progress of the treatment.

"I was thrown from a horse in November 2007. I have had three surgeriesfor a broken arm and shoulder. When I first started my treatments with Dr.Shui I was suffering from extreme migraines three times or more
per week. I had so much neck and shoulder pain that I was considering retiring from my position as an art teacher at Chula Vista High School. I was taking
medication around the clock for pain management. I could not raise my right arm above my shoulder with out extreme pain and I was going through three months of prescription medicine for migraine in a month. After eleven treatments with Dr. Shui I have only had one migraine and am no longer taking any pain medicine. I am loving being an art teacher again and can freely move my arm over my head. Dr. Shui has indeed given me my life back and my orthopedic surgeon and my
physical therapist are amazed. I would highly recommend Dr. Shui. He is knowledgeable and caring approach to anyone interested in regaining their
health."
Sincerely,
Carol Tatum
"I started going to Dr. Thy over a year ago and with her help, my life has changed! She was so patient,gentle and kind with me and always right on target. I had been to a number of chiropractors over theyears but she has been the only one who has educated me by showing me the connection betweenphysical, mind and spiritual and that if one was out of balance, the others would be also. It is a slowprocess for me but things she has taught me have sunk in slowly. In addition to nutrition counseling,I see her for times when my body is in pain, out of adjustment and she always does a thoroughcheck before she adjusts me, testing me for various deficiencies. It is pretty impressive, for sure! Theequipment at her office is top notch and she knows how to use it! I have recommended Dr. Thy to anumber of people and if they were wise enough to give her a try, they were happy too! I think the bestthing about Thy, besides her knowledge, is her passion for her craft. She absolutely has a heart for holistic medicine and it shows. It was obvious to me with each visit that her top concern was for mywell-being, above anything else. Thanks Dr. Thy!"
