Dr. Rob Bodner, LMT #8274, D.C. (He/Him)
Dr. Rob spent his formative years growing up in Beaverton, Oregon. After graduating from Sunset High School, he attended the University of Oregon. He double majored in both Spanish and English. After graduating, he enrolled in massage school, and began his career in healthcare. He moved to Boulder, Colorado, and attended Boulder College of Massage Therapy.
After over 1500 hours of education, he was ready to administer therapeutic massage to the public. Shortly after graduating in 2000, Dr. Rob moved to Israel where he studied Hebrew and worked as a massage therapist. A year later, he returned to Portland and has been working as a massage therapist and language interpreter for over 10 years.
Dr. Rob discovered chiropractic through a snowboarding injury, that baffled traditional Western medicine doctors for a couple of years. Eventually, he went to a chiropractor and in one adjustment everything went back into place, the pain dissipated, and he could feel the blood flowing freely into the affected area of his neck and shoulder. He has been problem free in that area ever since. After that experience he was convinced of the benefits of chiropractic treatment, and soon after, enrolled in chiropractic school at Western States Chiropractic College and has never looked back.
Dr. Rob strives to join his experiences as a massage therapist, and that of traditional Western medicine, with complementary alternative medicine to offer the most holistic and well rounded care that he can give.
