Robert “Skip” George, D.C. previously practiced chiropractic in San Diego and La Jolla, CA from 1980-2021, and recently moved to Logan, Utah. He is one of the handful of chiropractic doctors nationally that integrates chiropractic, rehabilitation and sports performance training. He holds specialties as a Certified Chiropractic Sports Practitioner (CCSP), Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) and Postural Restoration Certified (PRC). In addition, he is trained in Active Release Technique (ART), and certified in the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and the Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA).
One of his purposes has been to continually add “tools” to his tool belt to improve patient outcomes utilizing the most effective evidence based approaches. One of the most dynamic and state-of-the-art approaches is PRI for rehabilitation and sports performance.
In 2014, Dr. George was the first chiropractic doctor to become Postural Restoration Certified (PRC) with the Postural Restoration Institute. His practice centers around the PRI approach to structure, position, posture and balanced function. One of the main premises of PRI is that restoring function and balance requires a foundation that provides normal function and position of the diaphragm and its relationship to the ribcage, spine and continuing with the rest of the skeletal structure. The diaphragm is fundamental and restoring proper breathing with alignment is critical for effective treatment outcomes. The success of most treatments, including chiropractic, will be inhibited without addressing this most important muscle of the body and the neurology that drives it.. His clinic is a designated Postural Restoration Center.
Dr. George has lectured nationally and internationally on topics ranging from sports injuries, concussion and the Postural Restoration Institute. He has also written numerous articles on sport performance and rehabilitation and is a faculty member of the Postural Restoration Institute.
