“Rarely will you find a provider as generously attentive to your needs as Dr. Adam Shadick. He sees his clients beyond a text-book diagnosis and treats them with personalized care – often going above and beyond to find solutions that best meet your unique needs. With a specialty in neuroscience, he offers innovative perspective and techniques that get to root-cause and help breakthrough patterns you may not even know you’ve had! He has helped me with immediate accuracy needs and longer lingering issues I never thought I’d get relief from. Besides the great treatment I really appreciate how Adam takes time to explain what he is doing and how the body works, which in turn makes me more aware of myself allowing me to move healthier. Superbly professional, generously committed to serving his clients and community, I recommend Dr. Adam Shadick with please and Enthusiasm!

“I came to Dr. Adam’s practice 3 weeks ago not only suffering from your average body ached and pains such as neck, low back, and shoulder, but also, I came to him with an out-of-control panic disorder. I went to him not knowing what to expect but there are not many choices in my area when it comes to help with panic attacks other than a physician throwing pills at you, so I figured what did I have to lose. I know this might sound impossible to people that suffer from panic disorders, but I can absolutely tell you that he made leaps and bounds in improving my battle with panic attacks in just 3 weeks! I absolutely recommend Dr. Adam to anyone who is struggling with a panic disorder I will absolutely keep scheduling with Dr. Adam since there has been such an impressive improvement in my quality of life. Thank you, Dr. Adam!”

“Dr. Adam is a miracle worker!!! Many of you know I had a situation a few weeks ago were my back and abdomen were injured. I was in excruciating pain until I went to see Adam!!! He is not your typical chiropractor as he does much more!! OSAD/AASD Peeps, we are covered!”

"I had suffered with right hip/lower back pain and right leg nerve/numbness pain for 4 years following a big surgery. After years of seeing a chiropractor (which gave relief for only a day) and appointments with medical doctors on which I felt dismissed and not heard, a wonderful friend of mine who knew I was struggling put a call into a doctor she has had and continues to have much success with. She explained my situation and he personally called me back within 24 hours. From that very 1st phone call I started to get my life back. Dr. Adam listened to my story, saw my raw emotions and assured me he could help me feel whole again. He worked not only on my physical condition but taught me how my brain works when dealing with pain and how the brain and body go hand in hand. Dr. Adam always shows complete professionalism, compassion, empathy and has an amazing sense of humor which made each visit something to look forward to. His passion and dedication are so clearly evident upon that very first visit. I have not only gained movement again bit came out of the experience with so much more confidence and a tremendous friendship. I highly recommend Dr Adam to anyone who struggles to see results with traditional treatments. For those who want to get on the path of healing and enjoying life once again give Dr. Adam a try, you won’t regret it!”

“I has been dealing with ongoing neck pain and occasional tingling down my right arm which was progressively getting worse over a six month period. It was starting to impact my activities and affect my life on a daily basis. I tried deep tissue massage, stretching, and altering my activities until I could no longer ignore it. I was highly against stepping into the traditional healthcare system again and gratefully came across Dr. Adam’s name. Within 3-4 sessions I was 50% better. And because my case as a bit more complex than most, it took again that many sessions before I can finally say today that my pain is gone. The tingling has lessened, and I look forward to getting rid of it completely as well as slowly regaining all of my usual activities. The best part is, I was able to do this without any steroids or injections, pharmaceuticals, or consultations to a surgeon, which would have been mu last resort. I cannot say enough good words about Dr. Adam’s care and his equally determined investment in seeing me return to my regular activities pain free. My personal belief is that we are so programmed to assume pharmaceuticals and surgery are the only solution for all of our pains, ailments and other disorders, when in reality, there are other avenues that are far less invasive! I would highly recommend Dr. Adam! He is able to treat a wide variety of not only physical pains but other neurological disorders as well. Check him out!"

“About 5 years ago I was doing a lot of driving between states for work and that’s when I stated feeling a pain in my lower back that shot down my left leg. I decided to start seeing a chiropractor and would get a few cracks here and there, but the pain was back within a week. I went to Dr Adam and had a completely different experience! He found an abnormality in my low back into my tail none and told me how it could be causing the pain down my leg. While helping me with the troubled area he explained in great detail what was going on in my body and exercises I can do at home to help. Not only that, but he kept conversation going making me feel extremely comfortable even though we were working in a tender area. I walked away feeling great and having learned so much! Family guy, very down to earth and loves what he does. Couldn’t ask for better!”

“After 4 months of leg pain I went outside my normal and set up a visit with Dr. Adam. TWO visits later I was pain free!! I was completely astonished that all it took was two visit after months of physical therapy. I am very thankful for Dr. Adam and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a solution to get back to all their normal activities.”

"I had always been reluctant to see a chiropractor and finally relented after being referred by a physical therapist, who I highly respect, to Dr. Shadick. My hesitancy came after having a negative experience with a different chiropractor previously.
At my first visit, Dr. Shadick put me at ease. He was communicative while providing a very thorough evaluation. He then discussed various treatment approaches and adapted them to my level of comfort in regard to his adjustment techniques.
He told me his goal is always give his patients their self autonomy back whenever possible and not to chronically manage/see them. He uses different techniques and approaches than others.
I, myself, work in the medical field so I do understand the type of care I am receiving when I go in for my own medical appointments. I strongly recommend Dr. Shadick as he brings a fresh, new approach to treating ailments.”

"I reached out to Dr. Shadick after seeing my regular chiropractor weekly for five months and seeing minimal improvement in a bulging disc. After just five sessions with Dr. Shadick, my pain has significantly subsided and I have been able to return to many of my normal activities. Dr. Shadick's revolutionary approach to healing combined with his love for learning is a powerful combination and an incredible asset to the greater Fox Valley. I cannot recommend him highly enough."

“I discovered Premier Brain & Body after one of my neighbors knocked on our door and mentioned a review she had seen for Dr. Adam. After reading through countless reviews and only seeing high praises it honestly felt too good to be true. The process to get in for an appointment was very straightforward and blissfully simple compared to other experiences. After my initial appointment I was in disbelief, as I had never had such a thorough, in-depth appointment (especially not for an initial intake appointment). Within the time of that appointment he explained to me the “why” behind everything I was experiencing. That was huge for me, especially as someone who likes to know the reasoning behind why things are occurring. After the initial appointment I left with an overwhelming feeling of hopefulness-Mainly from the fact that I had someone who was taking the time with me to tailor treatment for my own baseline of symptoms (and was explaining the root of where these symptoms are emerging from).
A little backstory into what led me to Premier Brain & Body: I was always very active growing up. I
experienced concussions with PCS in high-school and had gone through multiple rounds of speech, physical, and vision therapy.
While in college, I experienced another concussion. The next year I started experiencing other seemingly unrelated symptoms that led to me leaving school. Shortly after, I was diagnosed with POTS. I had gone through numerous doctors and therapies to try and provide some relief, but did not feel they were tailored to my own symptoms and experiences, rather the generalized idea of what POTS patients need.
I spent 2-3 weeks working with Dr. Adam and that time truly changed me and how I am able to live day-to-day. He is truly a delightful person who cares about each patient he treats. He always left room for questions to be asked, and would check in on how you are feeling before each session. Dr. Adam is very sympathetic and recognizes the mental effects these conditions can have on you. He leaves room for conversation if you are feeling chatty, and if not, that was also no problem! I was truly appreciative of how adaptive he was day-to-day depending on how I was feeling both physically and mentally.
I learned so much about what exactly is happening within my body that causes my symptoms. Dr. Adam
was able to explain complex reactions occurring in the brain/body in a way that was easily understand as a 23 y/o with basically zero medical knowledge. I now know the reason why I feel the way I do some days, and to me that is huge!!
After my appointments with Dr. Adam, he has consistently checked in to make sure that I am still feeling well (which is greatly appreciated and unlike other experiences I have had). And I am feeling great!!
I no longer struggle with the laying-to-standing transition in the morning, and have an overall increase in energy. My dizzy spells have been dramatically reduced (or even practically gone most days). I can participate in activities I haven’t been able to do in a long time. I’ve even been playing in volleyball games weekly which is something I never dreamed of a year ago. While I am bound to still have “off” days, I now have tools and exercises that give me a chance to combat the negative symptoms.
I have nothing but good things to say about my experience at Premier Brain & Body. In a time where I know many providers are stretched thin I am so thankful that Dr. Adam made the time to see me!
I would recommend Premier Brain & Body to anyone in a heartbeat-especially to those who feel they have exhausted all other options. He is definitely a life-changer!!”

“I've see Dr. Adam for prior issues - back, shoulder, & vertigo. In November of 2025 to set up an evaluation. I reached out because I was a "MESS" & was truly lost!! I felt like I couldn't think straight or focus, I was constantly exhausted & always anxious, and I was dizzy a lot more than ever before. My emotions were all over the place & I just didn't know where else to turn! I thought at least Dr. Adam could work on the dizziness.
After the evaluation, we came up with a 3 week (more intense) program. I wasn't sure what to expect or what outcomes to expect. Dr. Adam asked me what I wanted to accomplish during my program - "coping mechanisms" was my answer. I wanted to be able to have exercises/items that I could use besides what I already knew.
The 1st week was rough!! It wasn't physically taxing but it was mentally taxing. I trust Dr. Adam 1,000% so I knew that we would start seeing results... and we did!!! Each session, I learned SOO much about myself & about what I was going through. He reassured me that I was 'normal' & that my 'wiring' interprets things differently. What i/we had to work through was how to get that 'wiring' to a level where things didn't 'bother me as much'. It's hard to explain - but all of the 'take-aways' (or coping mechanisms) have helped me when I need help.
After the program, he gave me pages of tools that I can (& do) use daily. He didn't just show me, he explained the WHY & the HOW. There really are no words to describe how it feels to be "ME" again & to feel like I'm not broken & can't be fixed. Dr. Adam truly understands, makes you feel like you're the most important patient to him, will dig deeper if needed, & walks you through EVERY STEP of your treatment. Beyond grateful for Dr. Adam & his investment in me!!!!”
