Chiropractor

Craig Roberts D.C.

I was born and raised in the small town of Scandia, Minnesota. My family has utilized Chiropractic care since I was very young, and I feel fortunate to have had such exposure. I can remember walking past the local chiropractor's house when I was five or six. My father pointed out the house and said, "the man who lives there is a Chiropractor." "What's that?" I asked.

"Chiropractors are doctors who don't use drugs or surgery--they heal with their hands." He then added, "Chiropractors are the doctors of the future." I was intrigued by Chiropractic from that point on.

In 1999 I headed for Western States Chiropractic College (WSCC) in Portland, Oregon. WSCC was the last school that D.D. Palmer, the founder of Chiropractic, founded in 1904. Oregon has the largest scope of practice for Chiropractors, and therefore a wide range of material was taught at the school including minor surgery, obstetrics, and pharmacology. I feel this broad scope has enhanced my capabilities as a Doctor as well as my effectiveness as a Chiropractor.

2003 Graduated valedictorian and Summa Cum Laude with honors from Western States Chiropractic College
2003 Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist
2005 Qualified Medical Examiner for the state of California

I enjoy using every treatment modality at my disposal to make patients better than they've been as fast as possible. I've had the privilege of working with professional and high level athletes from many fields including football, powerlifting, bodybuilding, martial arts, kayaking, running, multiple track events, crossfitters and triathletes to name a few.

In my free time I enjoy photography, weightlifting, making music, organic farming, building, and exploring the Sierras.
