Dr. Tricia A. Shaar, DC

Dr. Tricia Shaar is a chiropractor with nearly 30 years of experience helping people of all ages improve their health and quality of life. Over the course of her career, she has developed an extensive toolbox of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches that allow her to work alongside each patient, helping them see their body differently and experience meaningful change.

Dr. Shaar’s expertise is grounded in a broad, integrated educational background. She is a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board (DACNB) and is trained in multiple chiropractic techniques, functional medicine, infant and pediatric care, animal chiropractic, shamanic and other healing arts, as well as therapeutic massage and bodywork. Combined with her extensive athletic background, this training gives her a deep understanding of how the body functions on many different levels.

By drawing on these disciplines, Dr. Shaar takes a holistic, whole-body approach that supports each patient’s awareness and healing journey. Her goal is to understand how the body functions as an integrated, cyclical system, identify where it can be accessed, and begin the unwinding process that creates greater health, balance, and wellness.

Outside of her work with the Center for Breath & Beyond team and her own private practice — where she treats both people and animals, including large animals in the field — Dr. Shaar is a lifelong student who continues her education through conferences and seminars.

In her free time, she can often be found riding her motorcycle on off-road trails, golfing, scuba diving, or spending time with her horses alongside her husband and their dog.
