Dr. Mei Ling Robin moved to Washington from St. Louis, MO. At just 5 years old, she began working as a multi-disciplinary circus performer and at 14, while training as an aerial contortionist, she suffered a serious low back injury, resulting in the inability to continue working. Dr. Robin desperately sought care from different types of health care providers but failed to find a treatment that provided relief and got her back to performing. After months of failed treatment, she sought care from a chiropractor where she experienced immediate relief and returned to training and performing in 6 weeks. After this initial experience, Dr. Robin knew that she wanted to become a chiropractor as well.
Dr. Robin attended Logan University in St. Louis, MO, where she earned a Bachelor’s of Science in Life Science with an emphasis in Human Biology. She then continued on to obtain her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Logan University. Dr. Robin uses a variety of techniques ranging from gentle techniques such as Activator and SOT to more traditional Diversified techniques depending on the patients needs. In addition to spinal care, Dr. Robin took a special interest in the treatment of extremities (shoulders, wrist, knee, hip pain), pregnancy care (Webster Certified Practitioner) and pediatrics. During her free time, Dr. Robin enjoys traveling, cooking, bouldering, keeping up with her skills as a contortionist and aerialist, training her cats and exploring the all the PNW has to offer.
