Affordable Chiropractic Care for People of All Ages
Who We Are:
Dr. Shawn R. Lee and his wife, Wendy, chose to open their practice in Wendy’s hometown of Bel Air. They both love the hometown feel and love to see their patients out in the community. Nothing makes Dr. Lee’s day more than seeing someone at the gym and have them say, “Hey Doc, I just ran 5 miles, and I wouldn’t have been able to do it if it weren’t for you.”
Wendy and Dr. Lee not only run a business together but also have girls who truly run the show at home. Family is important and is really the drive behind the practice. We believe in not letting pain and injuries interfere with your lifestyle and spending time with the ones you love.
What We Do:
We treat pain and injuries. Plain and simply put – we want our patients to have a better quality of life. We want to minimize pain and ultimately become pain-free. We want people to be able to play with their kids, to be able to garden, to run 5k’s, and so on… We understand that pain can restrict you from doing the things you want to do.
Why We Do It:
Wendy was not only Dr. Lee’s first patient but also his inspiration for becoming a doctor. Wendy was suffering from severe pain from a four-year-old injury when they met and married in undergrad. Dr. Lee was deciding his career path and chose chiropractic with the goal of finding the cause and eliminating Wendy’s pain – which he did!
Wendy says the best part about her job is telling people about the miracles that happen in their practice. We believe in playing the full 18 holes of golf, wearing whatever high heels you want, being super mom, playing hard, waking up without aches, eliminating stress, and most of all, we believe in living a pain free life.
The staff at Susquehanna Spine & Rehab is all hand-chosen to be the best in their field. Our staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and all-around great people. We want you to feel welcome when you enter our office. The staff was chosen to be like family (the family you really like to see) and the office was designed from top to bottom to make you feel at home.
Meet Dr. Lee, Harford County’s Favorite Chiropractor
Dr. Shawn R. Lee, D.C.
Born in Atlanta and raised in Texas, Dr. Lee met his wife Wendy, a life-long resident of Bel Air, while an undergrad at Brigham Young University.
Dr. Lee first became interested in becoming a chiropractor through his mom, a long time chiropractic patient. However, it wasn’t until he married Wendy that he gave it any serious thought. While cheerleading at Bel Air High School, Wendy had fallen, injuring her back. The pain from that fall stuck with her for years. Only chiropractic care was able to make her better.
“We live what we believe, and we believe in a pain-free healthy life-style for everyone!”
After a brief tenure as a biomedical researcher at the famed Southwest Foundation in San Antonio, TX, Dr. Lee spent four years at Texas Chiropractic College as his first step toward becoming a licensed chiropractor. He graduated cum laude, and was able to complete medical pain management, surgical and advanced imaging rotations at Vista Medical Center. He also interned at Moody Health Center, a multidisciplinary clinic emphasizing cooperation in health care.
Chiropractic Couple of the Year Award
Dr. Shawn Lee and his wife, Wendy – who now serves as the office manager for Susquehanna Spine & Rehab – received the Chiropractic Couple of the Year Award for 2007. This prestigious award represents their dedication to chiropractic, health, and wellness. Of hundreds of other couples, Dr. Lee and his wife stood out amongst the bunch. Dr. Lee says, “We live what we believe, and we believe in a pain-free healthy life-style for everyone!”
I have been a patient of Dr. Lee’s for about 10 months now. As a 22 year old, I have been suffering from back pain since I was about 13 years old. The pain increased a few years ago and despite physical therapy performed at other facilities, and pain medications from the doctor I was unable to control the level of discomfort I was in. I found Dr. Lee and have been extremely happy with my results. I finally found out what was causing my pain (bulging disks) and was ready to address the problem. I can now do my daily activities without any pain whatsoever, and thanks to monthly adjustments I continue to feel better and better. I would highly recommend Dr. Lee to anyone, his treatment has made a huge difference for me.

I came to Dr. Lee with several aches and pains including pain in my knee, elbow, wrist, ankle, and back. I was nervous about receiving chiropractic treatment but Dr. Lee eased my concerns by thoroughly making sure that I was a safe candidate for adjustments. He took x-rays and explained to me why I’m having these aches and pains – some pain was due to overuse/misuse; some because I’m a mother of two small children. After regular adjustments and Physical Therapy, my knee pain is gone, my elbow pain is gone, my ankle and wrist are improving AND I’m reducing the migraines I used to get too! Overall I’m in much better health.

I began seeing Dr. Lee after noticing severe tenderness and pain in my left hip region. I scheduled an appointment and on my first visit he took x-rays but after noticing that there was a problem and it wasn’t showing on the x-ray, he sent me for an MRI. Dr. Lee continued to adjust me and see me as a patient to manage the pain I was having. I was lucky to find Dr. Lee when I did, not only did he help me discover that the pain in my hip was actually related to a mass growing uncontrollably but he also gave me the comfort I’d been searching for with chiropractic. I’d recommend Dr. Lee to anyone who wants to be pain-free!
PamAge 19
Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had pain in my neck and shoulders, and my heavy backpack certainly did not help throughout my school years. I’ve also had bad posture due to wearing heavy backpacks. Now that I’m an adult, my pain continues, but Dr. Lee is helping me a lot. I have an appointment twice a week, and I can definitely tell a difference. I use pain management along with the tens unit and physical therapy. All three of these services are working great and I’m definitely feeling better. Dr. Lee is very kind and funny, and he always makes me laugh. I feel very comfortable with him as my doctor.
AndreaAge 28
I have had lower back problems for about 35 years. As I aged, they were getting worse. I also noticed I was over weight. I came to Susquehanna Spine & Rehab because Dr. Lee could address both issues as part of a unified plan. The diet regimen, chiropractic, and personalized exercises worked! One aspect of Dr. Lee’s care that I really appreciate is his thorough explanation of what is going on and why it is happening. He also explained how the treatment(s) will work. Lastly, I find the friendly, patient-centered environment very refreshing!

My daughter started falling up the stairs at school and having severe knee pain for no apparent reason. I took her to the orthopedic surgeon who told me she had “sliding knee caps” and recommended physical therapy. With working full-time and taking care of three children I wasn’t sure how I was going to fit this into my schedule. I noticed Dr. Lee’s office as I brought my other daughter to an eye appointment and called. To my surprise Dr. Lee answered the phone himself. He gave me an appointment the very next week at a convenient time. Since then we have had a wonderful experience. Dr. Lee did a thorough exam and walked us through his entire treatment plan. Every appointment was made at a time convenient to my schedule. Heather has made wonderful progress and is now pain-free. Dr. Lee was always available for questions and kept me well informed of her progress. I have and will continue to recommend him to my family, friends, and co-workers.

Before coming to Dr. Lee, my ankle pain would wake me up during the night because of its severity. Dr. Lee has helped alleviate the pain in my ankle. By performing specific exercises twice per week, the pain is non-existent!
NickAge 33
I began seeing Dr. Lee because of a shooting pain I developed in my left heel. This pain was not only impeding upon my exercise regiment, but it began to limit my day to day activities as well. After a brief examination, Dr. Lee explained to me that my pain was being caused by Plantar Fasciitis, an inflammation of the thin layer of tough tissue that supports the arch of the foot.
Dr. Lee spent a lot of time educating me on exactly what my ailment was, and how he was going to go about relieving my pain. Shortly after Dr. Lee began treating my heel, I noticed that I was experiencing less and less discomfort. In a few short weeks, I was able to continue my exercise routine and enjoy my daily activities pain-free!
I would highly recommend Dr. Lee to anybody who is experiencing pain that is hampering their daily lives. I am confident that Dr. Lee will be able to relieve your pain, as he did mine.

Before I went to Susquehanna Spine & Rehab I had a lot of headaches and my neck got stiff. Now I do my exercises at Susquehanna Spine & Rehab. I feel better, my neck is better, and I don’t get a lot of headaches. Dr. Lee is a great doctor and he helps me every week and gives me more exercises every day.

I started treatment at Susquehanna Spine & Spine in August 2011. I have chronic migraines and have been dealing with them for years now. Over the years, I have been to several doctors, been on several medications, and tried everything possible to find what could be triggering so many migraine attacks every month. I finally decided to give chiropractic care a try, which was completely new to me. Dr. Lee and the staff are not only knowledgeable, but so friendly and I quickly became very comfortable here. The frequency of my headaches has decreased significantly each month since I started treatment. I am so happy I found out about this place! I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is in need of any type of chiropractic care or rehab.

TMJ was taking over my busy life as a SAHM (Stay At Home Mom) of two small children. I could barely get through the day due to the pain in my head and jaw. Thank goodness I found Dr. Lee to help me. He explained to me that the TMJ Disorder was caused not only by my clenching and teeth grinding but also from muscle tension in my neck and back. After a few adjustments I started feeling much better, and now I am pain free. The whole team at Susquehanna Spine & Rehab really cares about their patients. They always made appointments convenient for me allowing me to bring my two children. Dr. Lee is now treating my Plantar Fasciitis that developed during my first pregnancy 6 years ago. Thank you Dr. Lee and staff!
