Dr. Montgomery attended Montana State University obtaining a degree in Exercise Science and Physiology in 1999. He went on to spend the next seven years working as a personal trainer and strength and conditioning specialist in beautiful Bozeman, Montana. He worked closely with a local chiropractor who specialized in Egoscue Method and Dr. Montgomery started to spend more and more time working with training clients who were dealing with years of chronic pain. In 2006, he and his family decided to pursue more education and he relocated to Portland, OR to attend the University of Western States and obtain his degree in chiropractic medicine. Dr. Montgomery attended the University of Western States and obtained his doctorate in chiropractic medicine in 2010. With 25 years of combined experience in strength and conditioning, the fitness industry, and chiropractic Dr. Montgomery has worked with every level of client and patient, from youth to collegiate athletes to Olympians and professionals to seniors. He combines those experiences with a background in exercise science and lifestyle management and a deep education in clinical treatment and rehabilitation. He has been certified as a personal trainer and a StrongFirst Kettlebell Instructor and has made kettlebells a focus of his exercise, as well as that of his patients. He is also an avid golfer and is a level 2 medical and fitness professional through Titleist Performance Institute. Addressing injuries that affect patients' golf games and programming golf-specific movements and exercise programs has become a large part of his clinical practice. Dr. Montgomery has been utilizing the McKenzie Method (MDT) in his clinical approach for the last ten years and has found it to be an invaluable assessment and treatment tool for patients to find independence in the self-management of their musculoskeletal pain. He marries that approach closely with DNS (dynamic neuromuscular stabilization) to help people move more efficiently and safely to limit or prevent re-occurrences of future episodes. He has been closely involved with educating future chiropractic physicians since 2010. First, as a faculty teaching at the University of Western States, the 2nd oldest chiropractic college in the world, while building his first chiropractic practice and then for 7 years (2012 to 2019) as a clinic director supervising senior chiropractic interns in a clinical setting while treating patients. He continues to be involved with the University of Western States' Community Based Community Education program and Palmer College of Chiropractic's preceptor program and has the most highly qualified senior chiropractic interns finishing their clinical rounds and experience in his clinic. For the last thirteen years, he has provided the final step in clinical education and experience to over 180 chiropractic student interns.
