Dr. Robert Lombardo is a Doctor of Chiropractic, a Certified Chiropractic Sports Practitioner and a ReCODE 2.0 Certified Practitioner.
Being a two-sport athlete in college and using the services of a chiropractor to quickly recover from his injuries led Dr. Lombardo to pursue a graduate degree in Chiropractic. He graduated from Life Chiropractic College in 1982 and has been a Doctor of Chiropractic for 41 years. He specializes in sports injuries and maintains his Certified Chiropractic Sports Practitioner certification from Los Angeles Chiropractic College.
Treating injured athletes taught Dr. Lombardo many things including the importance of a good diet, that good diet alone isn’t always enough for good sports performance and recovery, and targeted supplementation is also needed to optimize. He discovered Traumatic Brain Injury’s (TBI) affect more than just the brain, they can affect the whole body, and what should be done to recover from it.
With 300 hours in Internal Disorders and Nutritional Therapy, he learned the value of lab testing and proper supplementation to aid in recovery and performance in sports. He also learned how valuable proper diet, exercise, stress reduction, and quality sleep are to restore his patients to good health. Knowing everyone’s biochemical make up is different; he uses lab testing, supplementation, and other adjunct therapies to tailor treatment protocols for each patient.
Dr. Lombardo’s mother and grandmother both suffered from Alzheimer’s. It was heartbreaking to him and his family to watch them mentally fade away and this drove him to get ReCODE 2.0 Certified in order to help those suffering from cognitive decline. His desire is to make a positive impact not only with patients, but also with their families.
Dr. Lombardo has also pursued further certificate training in:
- Autoimmunity Clinical Strategies and Treatment Applications
- Gastrointestinal Clinical Strategies and Treatment Applications
- Neuroinflammation Clinical Strategies and Treatment Applications
