About
We explain first, and you decide
Dr. Shadi Salameh runs Align Chiropractic for desk workers and parents in Portland. A visit starts with a conversation about your work, your week and what you want from care, not just the sore spot.
He combines adjustments with exercises and advice you can use on your own. Each step is explained before it happens, including the risks, and you can say no to any part of it.
Dr. Salameh is licensed to practice chiropractic by the Oregon Board of Chiropractic Examiners.
Options, risks and fees come first, in plain words.
We keep your records private and share them only as the law allows.
We ask about your day as well as your symptoms: how you sit, sleep, lift and move. The exam looks at the whole picture, and the plan is built around your routine.
Every visit begins with your questions and what you want from care.
The exam covers posture and movement, not only the area that bothers you.
Exercises and desk changes you can use between visits, if you want them.

Six things about how the practice runs
Where they suit you, Dr. Salameh can use low-force techniques. Ask which he suggests and why.
Every technique has risks. Your doctor goes through the ones that apply to you before you agree.
We ask about your work, sleep and what you do outside the office, because they shape the plan.
You can decline any part of care, or stop, at any time.
Your doctor tells you the fee for each part of a visit before it happens.
Weekday visits run until 6 p.m., and the office is open on Saturday until 2 p.m.
“Dr. Salameh asked a lot of questions before he touched anything, and he explained every step.”
“The staff were clear about what my plan would and would not cover before my first visit.”
“I liked that he showed me what to do at home and did not push me to book more visits.”
“It felt like a conversation, not a sales pitch. I knew I could say no.”
