MEET THE TEAM

Erik Coombs 

Doctor of Chiropractic  |  Owner

Dr. Erik Coombs has a passion for educating the people around him on true health and wellness and how the body was designed to function.  He grew up in Wisconsin Rapids, WI and has always been drawn to healthcare as a career choice. Having grown up a chiropractic baby and been under chiropractic care his entire life, he knew the vast benefits of principled chiropractic.  It was in the middle of his undergraduate years at the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities when he decided to look towards professional school as a Doctor of Chiropractic.  Dr. Erik was drawn to the incredible reputation of Life University in Atlanta, Georgia as the largest and most advanced chiropractic school in the world. 

It was during Dr. Erik’s four years of chiropractic education that he achieved Certified Advanced Proficiency in Torque Release Technique. It was this technique that finally rid Dr. Erik of his chronic headaches and allergies and which led him to learn more about neurologically based chiropractic care. Torque Release Technique has been proven through vast research to be the most specific, scientific chiropractic technique in the world today. 

Dr. Erik has also had extensive education in extremity adjusting through the Council on Chiropractic Extremity Practitioners (CCEP) and is a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA). He has spent numerous post graduate hours honing his skills in pediatric and maternal care.  He is also certified in the Webster technique which is a technique often utilized to restore optimal pelvic function during pregnancies.
