Steven S.

Business Owner

Dr. Steve graduated from Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles and has been striving to help individuals reach their optimal health potential. It was in the first few years that Dr. Steve started realizing there was a need for in depth analysis of certain individuals he was helping. The power of the adjustment is awesome, but some people needed a more in depth analysis of their physiology. He realized that people needed help making lifestyle changes, dietary changes and supplemental nutrient intake. Dr. Steve began to pursue Functional Medicine as a key to unlocking those hidden issues that individuals have been struggling with for so long. Dr. Steve attained a certification as a Functional Medicine Practitioner and through Functional Medicine, he has been able to help individuals move away from their prescription drug dependence and live up to their health potential.

Dr. Steve has a passion to see others come to know optimal, proper health & become happy healthier indiv

Great chiropractor! Dr. Shaw is very good at what he does, I have chronic neck pain and need to be adjusted almost on a weekly basis. Appointments are very easy to book, I never have to wait, and he is very skilled. I highly recommend it!

I have chronic migraines, my former chiropractor moved so I was nervous trying out someone new. When I came to see Dr. Shaw he was so nice we went over everything from my posture to taking x-​rays, the following week I made and appointment to get adjusted and WOW, he was able to release alot of build up tension on my neck and lower back!
What I like about coming to see Dr. Shaw is that he’s not pushy, he explains why he thinks you should be seen and why and he offers great plans that I can afford! (THANK YOU!!)
Parking is all around and free for 2hrs.
I’ve been seeing him for almost 2months (approx 3x a month) now and I’ve been migraine free. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!!!

Dr. Shaw is the BEST. First and foremost, he’s a great chiropractor. His methods are safe and effective — I love that he takes X-​rays as a first step instead of just going in for the adjustment. It’s also obvious that he really cares about his patients’ health and well-​being beyond their scheduled adjustments. He took the time to explain everything to me, answered all 5 million of my questions patiently and thoroughly, and gave me a real, practical advice and a process on how to improve my ongoing back issues outside of his office. I feel infinitely better — and while I’ll still need to go for a tune up every now and then — I am back to my normal routine and feel much better equipped to manage my back problems! Thank you Dr. Shaw!

I should have reviewed Element Life months ago when Dr Steve FIRST saved my back… and my life! Every time I see him, I leave feeling a million times better. I’ve been to several chiropractors, all with mediocre results. Dr Steve is a chiropractic genius and he leaves them all in his dust! I recently told my husband to see the doc for a pinched nerve that was affecting his leg to the point of barely being able to walk at times. Hubby is now right as rain and is singing the praises of Dr Steve along with yours truly!

Dr. Shaw is truly the best Chiropractor I have EVER been to. He is truly concerned about your overall health. Always offering helpful tips. From a pulled rib to a strained muscle, he has been able to treat all with precision and gentleness. He was also able to successfully treat my hubby’s sciatica. Highly recommend him.

Dr. Shaw is very professional and comforting in his demeanor. The office is calm and the entire experience is soothing. He’s a fantastic chiropractor and equally fantastic in his bedside manner. I now refer all of my friends and clients to him for chiropractic work.

Dr. Shaw is fantastic! I went to him on referral from another chiropractor who was changing careers. My neck was literally in a pinch and I couldn’t turn my head to the left. I contacted several other doctors before going in to see him and I am SO happy with my decision to go with him. He cares about your overall well being and makes every effort to address your specific issues/​needs. It was his care that initially got me back to functionality and I see him once a month to remaining aligned. Now that I’m 5 mos. pregnant, I continue to see him, and his precision in care helps keep me going.
Special shout out to Murietta who is wonderful as well! Two thumbs up for Element Life Chiropractic.

A great chiropractor who cares about your overall health! NOT just a crack you kind of guy but takes time and is very friendly!
I started going due to back trouble and I have decided to go regularly (once a month) even when feeling good to keep my overall health up.
I HIGHLY recommend Steve to anyone!

I was suffering from severe whiplash that left me feeling sick with nausea, migraines and dizziness. I called him up and explained what was going on. He took me in the same day, within the hour. I was so thankful. The receptionist was very sweet and helpful with all the paperwork. The office is quiet and welcoming. At no point did I feel rushed. Dr. Shaw took time to listen to me and was very gentle as he walked me through everything he was doing. I’ve visited other Chiropractors before and they can be rough and try and surprise you with different twists, which can be scary when you’re in pain already. The rate was affordable and I felt back to normal the next day! thank you Dr. Shaw!

I was in a car accident a few years back and every once in a while my neck will act up. I have tried taking meds, but there doesn’t seem to be anything that truly helps, so I go to Dr. Shaw and he always fixes it right up. He is very professional, knowledgeable and really cares for and about his patients. Best Chiropractic care in the SFV!

I first met Dr. Shaw when he was filling in for another doctor who had left that office. I saw a string of different doctors for a lower back issue that gave me a lot of pain and difficulty sitting. I was struck by how much better I was after a couple of visits with Dr. Shaw, so much so that I ended up following him to his Burbank office (which, in some lucky alignment of the stars, is right near my house.)
His office is pleasant, and they’re very accommodating. Dr. Shaw himself is good listener, down-​to-​earth, and a very nice guy. And considering how my life is now compared with before I saw him, he obviously knows what he’s doing.
I recommend him highly!

I have a the opportunity to visit Dr. Shaw a few times now. He is very professional and explains all the procedures. I was a little nervous at first as I have never gone to a chiropractor before him. But my back has felt the best it has in years!
I think the one of the most impressive things is that he seems genuinely concerned with your health. He discussed other ways with me that will help my back feel better, like diet and exercise.
I look forward to his continued care and would recommend him to anyone.

Yes, what Sarah said! He spent a lot of time asking questions and explaining to this newbie what he was doing! I wasn’t nervous or worried… and boy, was I a mess before I came in! I’m going to send all my friends to him!

Go see Dr. Steve — he’ll straighten you all out *rim shot*!! Seriously though, he is very gentle, & spends a lot of time listening, & in turn, explaining what he is doing for you. Make an appointment. Your spine will thank you.
