Rob felt a calling to help others from a young age. His formal introduction to the healing arts came in 2008 when he learned the Healing Touch system. This experience deepened his understanding of the sacredness of the healing process and the respect it demands from those who choose to guide it along. This early introduction also helped him connect with the subtle energies at play within the human body and their significant impact on creating either disease or health within the physical.
His practice of Chinese martial arts, along with his studies in biology, ecology, and Taoist philosophy during college, naturally led him to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), ultimately earning him a Master’s Degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Over the years, Rob has helped thousands of patients with a wide array of conditions—from back pain, to insomnia, to anxiety, to helping assist in transformative life challenges, and as well idiopathic conditions that had no explanation but were made simple through the lens of TCM.
Rob is passionate about awakening and maximizing the innate healing abilities within his patients, and is committed to continually improving his ability to do so. He finds fulfillment in delving deep to uncover the obstacles that hinder patients from realizing their highest healing potential and living their best lives. Once these limiting blocks are addressed and healed, he believes the real fun then begins, and takes joy in guiding individuals toward stepping into the highest version of themselves. Rob strongly believes that our existence is purposeful, and his deeper mission is to facilitate healing that aligns individuals with their soul’s highest expression and path, ultimately contributing to a more harmonious and beautiful world.
While known for his cheerful and lighthearted demeanor, Rob is serious about ensuring that his patients feel seen, heard, and understood with compassion and without judgment. This supportive relationship fosters collaboration between practitioner and patient, allowing them to develop and carry out effective treatment plans that deliver the desired results. In his sessions, Rob employs a range of tools, including acupuncture, Chinese herbs, Asian bodywork (Tui Na), craniosacral therapy, cupping, moxibustion, infrared heat, red light therapy, and life and health coaching.
Beyond his passion for healing and medicine, Rob enjoys mixed martial arts, jiu jitsu, dancing, meditation, breathwork, hiking, playing guitar and fiddle, reading, podcasting, attending live music shows, and connecting with nature—all pursuits that enhance his personal growth and quality of life.
Rob is deeply committed to making a difference in people’s lives by helping them achieve their health and wellness goals. He empowers them towards a position of self-leadership on their health journey, enabling them to fully realize and step into their life’s true potential. Guided by the Taoist and quantum mechanics principle that everything is interconnected, Rob believes that when we do the work to heal and bring forward the realized potential of our soul’s highest embodiment, this transformation permeates beyond ourselves, and positively impacts our friends, family, and the greater community in a deep and lasting way.
