I’ve been overweight since I was 10 years old. I’ve tried pills, shots, and even Weight Watchers. When I did lose weight, it would always find it’s way back. I just couldn’t stay away from sugar. (more…)

I have had tension in my shoulders for the last couple of years. It became so severe, my body was in the fight or flight position. After taking Pilates, I noticed that I couldn’t put my shoulder flat against the wall and realized I had to do something about it. I had been very stressed at work due to changes in the technology. On top of everything I was also craving sugar, partly because it was the easiest thing to grab.When I came to Dr. Allen and Dr. Sharon’s office the results were significant! My shoulders are relaxed, I’m mentally alert and my sugar cravings have disappeared due to being on the Candida 2 week program! The Candida 2 week program has made me aware that protein is better for energy than sugar. Due to the Candida diet, losing my sugar cravings and being on Weight Watchers, I’ve lost 17 pounds in 7 months. Much of that weight was at my belly. It’s much flatter now. I also deal with stress a lot better. For example, I was on my way to a place I have been before and some how managed to get myself lost for about a half hour! Normally, I would be stressed out, but I managed to stay focused and calm and ended up getting there. So you’re on medication or not, and still not feeling good? Try the Drs. Dubner. I’ve had significant results, you may too!

I first heard about the Dubners at a Sluggish Thyroid talk at Curves. I had just been diagnosed with sluggish thyroid and was tired all the time and having hot flashes.

After just 3 weeks of care and no medications, I am losing my belly bulge and can drive home from work without stopping to take a nap along the road. Also, my mid back “stress” pain is gone! Best of all, after 3 years of waking up every hour or so with a hot flash, I am now sleeping through the night. My hot flashes have decreased, I have more energy, and even my boss and co-workers notice a great difference in my attitude – all for the better. I am also able to do garden work, house work, and the laundry without getting tired and sore.

Thanks both to Drs. Allen and Sharon Dubner and their staff for a journey of no pain!!

I have been coming to the Dubners’ for less than three months and I am already having amazing results. I have had a Sluggish Thyroid for twenty years and was placed on Synthroid after my family doctor confirmed my condition with lab tests. The treatments I have received in this office have made it possible for me to decrease my medication, lose weight, eat more, stress less, and have more energy. I had no idea that Chiropractic could affect my nerves and the rest of my body so positively! Even my Thyroid lab tests have improved since receiving care!

I was on the Atkins/South Beach Diet for one month. I only lost one pound. I spoke with Dr. Sharon desperately asking her to check it out and see what could be done. I received a treatment as well as a special diet for two weeks to help my liver recover. On that diet I had so much more energy and started losing weight easily after that. 27 pounds lighter here I am, moving with ease and enjoying my thinner self!

Thank you soooo much Dr. Sharon!

For over 30 years, I have been plagued by sinus infections that regularly followed the usual colds. They were treated with antibiotics; but over the last years, the treatments took longer and longer. This time, I was on antibiotics from April into June and still wasn’t free from the symptoms. After attending a presentation of Dr. Allen and Dr. Sharon Dubner at the Los Altos Whole Foods store, I accepted their offer of a free consultation. I was deeply impressed by Dr. Sharon’s highly intuitive diagnostic, and followed the Candida diet she prescribed to the letter.  Within two or three days, I started to experience a dramatic improvement in the symptoms of the sinus infection. Incidentally, and without suffering from any cravings or feeling hungry, I also lost 5 pounds without asking for it (I already had a rather normal weight for my age). Other beneficial effects included that the usual afternoon fatigue at work disappeared, and that my blood pressure (which was often too high) came down to normal levels. Over the following two or three weeks, where the diet was accompanied by Dr. Sharon’s gentle (and, as far as I am concerned, rather mystifying) treatment, the beneficial effects stabilized and improved even more. I am confident that Dr. Sharon has shown me a way to definitely get rid of my fragility in the ear/nose/throat area, and I am very grateful.

I attended an allergy talk by the Drs. Dubner at the Saratoga YMCA late July of 2005. Before starting care with the Dubners, I had pain in my left shoulder which radiated to my arm and hand which I’ve had for about a year and a half and was progressively getting worse. It was so painful and numb that sometimes I couldn’t sleep at night. I also had trouble losing weight even though I exercised on a daily basis. I had been diagnosed with a thyroid problem 17 years ago. My thyroid problem would make my face and ankles constantly puffy, now, there is no more puffiness. Additionally, I had a lot of asthma-related symptoms including bronchitis. Last winter, I was on Prednisone and antibiotics constantly. This winter, so far so good. No bronchitis and no medications. I have been receiving care from Dr. Allen and Dr. Sharon for almost 5 months now and I feel much better than I have in years!! My shoulder pain is completely gone! I no longer have pain radiating down my arm and hand when doing an activity! I’ve lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks! I have no more asthma symptoms so I have stopped using my inhalers almost completely and no Prednisone and antibiotics! No more bronchitis! On top of all that, I don’t feel tired all the time like I used to. I’d like to thank the doctors and their staff. They are very helpful and kind. I think people who are still in debate or unsure should give the Dubners a try. For those who are starting out should stick it out for at least 4-6 months to allow enough time for their own results.
