Performance Chiropractic SM traces its roots back to 1979, when Dr. Nat Shaye (ret) founded the Shaye Chiropractic Clinic in Newport News. The practice has thrived, adding Dr. Daniel Shaye in 1996 & Dr. Jaren Panick in 2025. Our shared passion is helping people live independently and achieve their unique goals… all while connecting to the person in each patient.
The practice has 3 core values: The light, the rock, and T.E.A.M. Being the light means radiating hope, happiness, and positive energy. To us the “rock” means being strong, reliable, honest, and pure – in a world that doesn’t always provide comfort and genuine caring. And T.E.A.M. stands for “together, each achieves more.” That means that the doctors work as a seamless team in a “2 doctors, 1 practice” model; and it also means that the heart of the team is you, the patient.
Using methods like hands-on chiropractic care, acupuncture, dry needling, and acupuncture, the doctors help tens of thousands of patients achieve their unique goals and live their desired lifestyles. In addition, FDA-approved, state-of-the-art ProBalance® technology helps us assess fall, balance, and cognitive (memory & processing) deficits; and helps people reduce their fear, overcome limitations, and live their best lives.
Fun facts: Dr. Panick loves cooking and experimenting with new recipes, often taking requests from his fiancée Claire; and has a background in competitive ice hockey. Dr. Shaye is an amateur farmer who enjoys (!) swimming in the James River, year-round, without a wetsuit.
