Dr. Bomben's Unique Sports Background

Expertise that gives him an edge in chiropractic sports medicine

Before becoming a chiropractor, Dr. Bomben was a track and field athlete, a two time all American, a two time PAC-10 decathlon champion, and a junior national decathlon champion. After retiring from athletics, he became a personal trainer, massage therapist and track coach. Now Dr. Bomben focuses on chiropractic and wellness care in Austin, Texas. His background gives him a unique perspective and access to elite professional and Olympic level coaches and consultants.

"I've had most of the injuries that people come into my office for. As a former professional athlete, I've been there so I know what works and what doesn't. My treatments speed recovery and help prevent future injury. When appropriate, I also teach patients exercises to treat themselves. My own sports injuries inspired me to become a chiropractor - now I have the opportunity to inspire and assist you in achieving better health."

Personal Practice Philosophy

To provide each patient I encounter the best holistic care possible. This involves coaching and education on the many factors that affect health including exercise, diet, lifestyle, rest and environment. My treatment goals are to relieve your symptoms while restoring proper body function using safe and effective chiropractic and physical therapy methods. If I discover a disease process that requires treatment outside of the chiropractic scope of practice I refer immediately to the appropriate health care providers. My ultimate goal is to assist you in living a more healthy, wealthy, and happy life.
