ProHealth Chiropractic

Wow… well. .. WOW! I came for the great thing of a complimentary first session ($ 125 Value) I have to be a cheerleader for Dr. Jeff. I really was impressed, first of all, with his lovely manner ~ he’s a sort of gentle soul that listens with depth as you do your intake information. I really felt heard. He works on athletes — that had a HUGE appeal for me. If he can help cure them and bring them to balance, then I figure my challenges he can help me solve. I was RIGHT! This was one of the best chiropractic experiences I’ve ever had.
I am really fussy about chiropractors. I don’t want just a standard bone-​cruncher. I don’t want someone who just does work that doesn’t move my spine. I’ve had both, neither really work for me. What I knew I wanted was a chiropractor with a holistic approach, that included more, with more tools on their belt. Dr. Jeff Robinson was the perfect match.
I came for a chronic six month pain in my left hip that was getting triggered every time I did athletics even mild ones like walking. I was in pretty severe pain from sitting and getting up and down, which I have to do for my job.
Dr. Jeff’s introduction of Muscle Activation Therapy which I had heard of having good success with my coaching clients — really was astounding. ALL the points that related to the muscle problem he showed me on screen — I was having other problems with. The treatment of using pressure on those points I found already relieving pain a few hours later. The amazing part was how my muscles responded moments after he activated them, they were stronger. It wasn’t about «working out to make them stronger» — it was about awakening the neurology?! Fascinating. As a Master of Neuro-​Linguistics it totally makes sense to me. Awaken the neurological paths to regain muscle strength and balance.
THEN, adjust the spine.
Just really blown away by the power of it all, by the amount of relief I got in only 1 session.
Impressed.
Signed — Client for life. :)
THANK youuuuu Dr. Jeff, you made a believer out of me.

Dr. Jeff Robinson is among a highly differentiated group of elite healers. I am extremely active and have experienced numerous forms of bodywork all over the world. Jeff’s AMIT (
) practice is top notch. The generic forms of muscle activation that I have experienced feel similar at treatment time, but many of the activated muscles shut down again within 48 hours after the treatment. Like the other top AMIT practitioners, when Jeff activates muscles they stay activated. The immediate value of fully activated muscles includes pain free structural stability and can only be truly appreciated by experiencing it. I have been enjoying AMIT for over a decade and the longer-​term benefits of mitigating repetitive motion injuries by reducing asymmetric joint articulation has a lot to do with why my body feels better at 39 than it did at 29.

Dr Robinson is the best chiropractor/​bodywork professional I’ve ever used. I’ve been to about to five or more chiropractors with mixed results and one really good chiro before I’ve been to ProHealth Chirpractic office. My dad told me about him, but I was really content with my current chiro. I went in because of the free consult and one back problem that couldn’t be solved by my current chiro. I was glad I did. Dr Robinson knows more than just spinal manipulation. His technique of fixing muscles that are pulling the spine out of alignment allows him to do work that other chiros cannot even come close to. If you have ever been in an accident, even if it was three or more years ago, I would highly recommend you go in for a free consult to see if he can help.

Dr. Robinson is a wizard, and the first time you see him using AMIT, it may seem like he literally is. Words are not adequate to describe his application of this technique and the resulting benefits. I have tried repeatedly to describe it to friends and family with mixed success because it is a type of treatment that one must receive in order to appreciate. Bear in mind that he is 1 of 2 medical professionals in ALL of Oregon who knows AMIT. I recommend
for those who wish to know more on this technique, specifically the testimonials page toward the bottom. Doc Robinson learned AMIT from Dr. Buhler, the owner of this site. I have seen Dr. Robinson multiple times in the last year and have been happy with the experience each time. He is definitely not the kind of chiropractor that will recommend a high number of visits over a prescribed number of weeks in order to generate revenue. He genuinely cares about your health and the results of his treatments. That being said, 1 – 2 treatments using AMIT will not magically resolve everything, although I was amazed at the results in just one visit. I am getting a bit older (nearly 49), but have remained very active in multiple sports, and have thus experienced new injuries, and aggravated old ones. I also have cumulative trauma in both wrists and fore-​arms due to heavy computer work. Dr. Robinson has treated and dramatically improved problems I have had with my left knee, right hip, severely injured right ankle (fastest healing ankle injury I have experienced), and both wrists/​forearms. I just recommended him to another friend and I strongly recommend him readers of these reviews. BTW, I receive no compensation whatsoever from my recommendation.

It’s early in the process, but I am pleased with the demeanor and thorough approach the staff has taken.

Dr. Robinson was able to quickly diagnose and treat my back/​shoulder problems. In just a few sessions I felt significantly better. It’s always easy to make an appointment and the cost is reasonable.

Dr. Jeff is an incredible person who’s daily goal seems to be helping others get more in tune with their patterns which bring imbalance to their lives. These imbalances can be brought to ones attention through pain, feelings of blocked energy, tiredness, or just feeling off kilter, amongst other issues. Jeff is a wonderful chiropractor because he understands that correcting the imbalance in the individual can bring us back to life, so to speak. We can feel as though our light has been turned back on and can realize what we need to change negative habits to be in balance with our bodies/​mind. Every time I have a visit with Jeff I feel as though I’ve been «reset,»: I can breathe freely, my mind feels clear, and any pain I may be having disappears. I highly recommend Jeff to anyone who feels like they could benefit from a life «adjustment» and is willing to make changes to maximize their health. An adjustment is not just about getting rid of pain, it’s about understanding the mind body connection of why we are getting the pain or imbalances in the first place. I hope you can visit Dr. Jeff so you can see for yourself, the magical healing potential that can come from chiropractic. Thank you so much Dr. Jeff for your wonderful generosity and gracious heart!
Sincerely,
Iris Briand, RD, LD

I felt like Dr. Jeff started with a bang and ended with a whimper. Dealing with my chronic, extensive back and hip problems, he had lots of ideas and treatment when we started. Then I noticed my appointments were getting shorter. A few times I was back in my car in under 10 minutes– unacceptable. Especially so, because I wasn’t feeling any better! I did not make any progress with him. I moved on, in search of a more healing practitioner.

My back and shoulders are feeling better after just one visit. I will need to go in a couple more times to get the full benefit, which is to be expected. Also, Chaz the massage therapist is fantastic! She has been helping me and my family for years.

This ain’t your everyday spa masseuse. No. Not at all.
I have visited numerousn LMT’s in the Portland area and have finally found one that knows what the heck she is doing. From spa relaxation massages, where some timid girl or guy gently pokes and prods me, to a deep tissue massage that left me in pain, the majority of masseuses I visit never seem to know what to do with a big, tall, barrel-​chested and always stressed out guy like myself. Then I found Lisa.
Lisa works out of the Pro Health Chiropractic space up on Terwilliger, and that fits her style of massage like a glove. Lisa gets in deep and knows exactly how to stretch your limbs in order to get those inner muscles loosened up. It’s like a combination of an adjustment and a massage (but no actual chiropracting takes place unless you visit the good Dr. Robinson next door).
While some people prefer a light massage that only hits the muscles closest to the skin, I don’t so much. I believe that most external tension generally results from stiffness and tension in those deep internal muscles, the ones that form the pulley system that keeps your body sitting and standing upright. To get truly loosened up takes someone getting in there and working those deep muscles. That is exactly what Lisa Hull does.
I always show up stiff as a board, with my back and calf muscles tied up in knots. After an hour on her table, I leave in mostly liquid/​elastic form. It’s as much «therapy» as it is «massage». It’s good. She is ver conscious to ask how tough I want her to be on me, which I appreciate.
So if you really want someone to get in there and unlock all those stiff, stressed out muscles, visit Lisa Hull, and let her work her magic.
