I cant say enough about how wonderful Dr. Sher has been to me. I went to him about two months ago with severe pain from Fibromyalgia. My pain has progressed over the years to the point where I couldnt even get out of bed without help. I was in tears while trying to get ready to go to work. I am a school teacher so I really dont have time to deal with pain. All of the doctors I have been to wants to try this medication and that medication. I really dont like being experimented on with different medications. So for me, Dr. Sher was a God send. The first visit Dr. Sher spoke with me about my diet. He explained to me how the stuff I was eating was causing my pain. He put me on a Gluten, Dairy, and Sugar Free diet. I have been on many diets, but this is a lifestyle change, and I feel so much better. I am able to get out of bed and make it through the day without pain. I have also lost about 20 lbs. Thank you Dr. Sher for helping me understand how to take control of my life.

I am a 50 year old "I still think" athletic male who encountered major lower back pains that left me unable to stand, sit, lie down or sleep without an aching pain or hot spear to my lower spine - ugh! Dr. Russel Sher explained, in detail, his approach to do "less than more" along with his recommendation of stretches and herbal medication (which I greatly appreciated the alternative to "chemical meds") to assist my body in addressing the issues and healing itself. His approach to a long term solution, not just a quick fix, grabbed my attention and by following his guidance -- at my initial visit I was at 20% - 30% in movement and am now at 90%, after only 3 visits -- I am looking forward to a great ski season this year! THANK YOU DR. SHER - I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOUR SERVICES! #Professional/Caring/Easy to Understand/Great Location - Thanks again for a better than expected experience!!! Sincerely, H. Andrew Pilcher

I have spent over 4 years dealing with a problem of digestive tract discomfort and intermittent limb pain that the established medical community first through drugs at to no effect and finally told me that they had no idea, that it could be a thousand things, and I might try physical therapy. Out of frustration and hope I began to look for chiropractors and functional medicine and found Dr. Sher through a Google Search. In less than a month all symptoms of both the digestive issues and the limb pain are completely gone! Dr. Sher used a combination of functional medicine, stress management techniques, and chiropractics t achieve this result. I have more energy than I have in years, am back to my positive friendly self, and feel like I am back in control of my life. I simply cannot thank Dr. Sher enough!

I began seeing Dr. Sher thinking that I would have to go every week and that my subluxations had become something I might just have to live with. I was so pleased when I found that my adjustments from Dr. Sher were holding longer than any I had received over the past two years. His work is gentle, specific and amazingly effective. I find that my body accepts the gentle manipulations rather than fight back and go out of alignment as I had become accustomed to. He is highly attuned to his work. His skills, knowledge and expertise in chiropractic, as well as functional medicine make him a highly valued and qualified healer. I now feel I am on the path to real healing, rather than merely maintenance of recurring problems. I am grateful that I have found him.

I am so thrilled with my experience with Dr. Sher so far! I came to him with a painful and uncomfortable tmj issue and after only a week of treatments I am pain free and the popping has reduced considerably! I honestly cannot believe how fast I am seeing improvements with a problem that has plagued me for years. He was also able to identify an issue with a rib that had slid out of place within minutes of evaluating me and also remedied that within a week as well. I cannot believe I went so long being in pain and discomfort for no reason! It became clear very quickly that he is extremely knowledgeable- not just about chiropractic issues but about all aspects of the body and functional medicine. I am so thankful I found him!!

I cant say enough great things about Dr. Sher. He is so much more than a chiropractor. I went it with a neck issue and discovered that it was connected to a 2 year old injury of a torn rotator cuff tear. The on again off again pain in my shoulder, lack of range of motion, etc were all things I figured I would have to live with. Not so! Dr. Sher has been treating it for just over a week and the difference is nothing short of miraculous. I look forward to a full recovery and cant wait to have my shoulder back. I never thought this was possible but Dr. Sher has made it possible. His approach is holistic and his depth of knowledge is awe inspiring. I am so grateful.

Dr. Sher truly saved my life. He ordered extensive blood work which dialed in my condition. My thyroid quit working, among many other things related to the thyroid condition. He immediately put me on a very strict diet and his supplement protocol. Within 2 weeks I was feeling so much better. I still follow his diet plan and have shared a lot with my family. We are all eating much healthier. I still get blood tests to confirm where I stand with my numbers. I dont know what I would have done without Dr. Sher. I would highly recommend him to anyone. I have already passed his name along. A truly intelligent and caring Chiropractic Physician.

I recently have had the most WONDERFUL and SURPRISING experience. I have had significant pain in my left leg for YEARS. It usually happens toward the evening hours. I have been to MANY doctors trying to deal with this. NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO DEAL WITH THIS. Many explanations but no results. I just moved to Asheville and recently have seen Dr. Sher. He examined me, determined that it was a nerve that was being pressed, did a procedure and added a Chinese patch. OVERNIGHT the pain was gone! It now has been two weeks and still NO PAIN. Bottom line -- Dr. Sher is a thoughtful and very competent doctor! THANK YOU DR SHER. NO MORE PAIN!

Dr. Sher is the BEST! I have had thyroid issues and have never had my blood work looked at with such competence as Dr. Sher has done. Im into a new life style with my diet and am totally amazed at how GREAT I feel! His Functional Medicine approach is advanced and simple to understand at the same time. I have been able to shift to a more responsible diet and life style that has improved my life 10 fold! I am very impressed with the Life Alignment techniques he has shared with me. I highly recommend this healing modality if you are ready to really shift and change! Thank you Dr. Sher for giving me a balanced mind body and soul back!
