I’ve had a few visits with Dr. Abbie, and I am feeling wonderful results from our sessions. Dry needling has been awesome for the chronic pain in my neck and shoulders. The waiting area is very nice and spa like and the treatment room is bright and welcoming. I am a fan of Dr. Abbie and look forward to future treatments with her.

Dr. Abbie is an incredibly talented healer. Her dry needling technique is magical and I always walk away with more mobility, less pain, and remarkably improved circulation. She's also a brilliant functional medicine practitioner who knows the supplements and lifestyle changes that actually work. I will forever be grateful for her work and how she changed my life from not having ANY answers for my PCOS, gut and cortisol issues...to finally being on the path to thriving!

I’ve had such a great experience with Abbie. She is incredibly knowledgeable, but what really sets her apart is how much she genuinely listens and cares. I never feel rushed, and she takes the time to understand what’s really going on instead of just treating symptoms. Her soft tissue work has dramatically improved my shoulder and neck mobility—I’ve noticed a huge difference in both my range of motion and daily comfort. I also really appreciate that I never feel pressured to buy supplements or services. Her focus is truly on helping her patients feel better, not on selling anything. And she’s an expert in weight training! If you’re looking for someone who is compassionate, highly skilled, and takes a thoughtful, whole-person approach to care, I can’t recommend Abbie enough.

As a competitive endurance cyclist, I put my body through a lot, long training blocks, grueling races, and the inevitable crashes that come with pushing limits. I can say without hesitation that Dr. Abbie has been absolutely essential in keeping me performing at the highest level. Her expertise in chiropractic care and dry needling has been a game-changer for my recovery and overall functionality. She not only addresses issues when they come up but also helps me stay ahead of problems before they impact my training or racing. What sets Dr. Abbie apart is that she’s more than just a chiropractor, she’s a trusted member of my endurance team. I rely on her skill and knowledge the same way I rely on my coach, equipment, and nutrition. Without her care, there’s no way I’d be able to consistently train and compete at the level I do. If you’re serious about your health, athletic performance, or simply living without pain, I can’t recommend Dr. Abbie highly enough.

Dr. Zubiel is so vastly educated on the body and how it ticks. Through the testing it was clear I have GI problems. We have a game plan, and you can tell for her it’s not about money. She loves what she does and she truly wants to see her patients over health improve
