Description

Today's guest is Dr Sam Shay (Doctor of Chiropractic). 

Since the age of 6, stemming from his parents extremely stressful divorce and a high stress school environment, Sam struggled with a whole host of chronic health issues, including:

• severe insomnia
• digestion problems
• severe fatigue
• inability to cope with stress
• sugar cravings
• salt cravings
• low moods
• requiring coffee each morning (even at age 6)

Sam coped with the stress by developing a strong addiction to video games. Whenever he wasn’t studying, Sam would play for hours and hours.

Sam was supposed to be the 3rd generation medical doctor in his family, including his grandfather and both his parents. Both his father and grandfather have also published in the medical field. However, Sam left the pursuit of western medicine when he decided western medicine failed to address the root causes.

For the past 17 years, Sam has devoted his life to health and science, learning how to heal himself through natural medicine. He now applies those same principles to his patients in the clinic and to his coaching clients online. Sam educated himself in natural medicine through multiple means, including:

• three bachelor degrees
• a doctorate in chiropractic
• a post-doctoral diplomate from the American Chiropractic Neurology Board
• a fellowship in the American College of Functional Neurology
• a post-graduate diploma in traditional Chinese acupuncture
