Chiropractor
Dr Rigel Wise has been proudly serving Portland as a chiropractor since 2012. A native Northwesterner-originally from Kelso, WA-Rigel did undergrad studies at the University of Washington, where he threw javelin on the track and field team. It was there that he was introduced to sports medicine for sports related injuries.
Before going to the University of Western States for his chiropractic degree, Rigel completed massage school at East West College of the Healing Arts and became licensed. He still incorporates deep tissue massage techniques into his treatments as well as therapeutic exercises to guide patients toward long-lasting relief of their musculoskeletal pain from head to toe.
Rigel incorporates muscle energy techniques, myofascial release and trigger point therapy for headaches and upper and lower extremity conditions. He also treats intervertebral disc issues, including sciatica with an array of spinal decompression techniques and effective home exercise programs.
