Dr. Chris Shay is a chiropractor at the Brewster, NY office of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation of NY & CT (PMR). He has a strong background in evaluating and treating sports-related injuries and conditions, and in physical fitness.
Dr. Chris Shay’s whole-person approach
Dr. Shay uses a multidisciplinary “whole person” approach. That means looking past the symptom to find the underlying cause of a problem. He then recommends treatment, along with practical lifestyle changes that support normal function.
No two plans are the same. Dr. Shay draws on a variety of adjustment and soft-tissue techniques to build a plan for each patient. After your initial exam, he reviews the course of treatment with you, so you know what it involves before you begin.
Education and credentials
- Doctor of Chiropractic, Palmer College of Chiropractic, Davenport, Iowa
- Bachelor’s degree, Fordham University
- Licensed in New York and Connecticut
Holding licenses in both states lets Dr. Shay care for patients on either side of the state line, at PMR’s Brewster, NY office.
