A third generation natural healing practitioner, Rachael Bergman brought her extensive experience to co-create Chiro Kinetics. As the original Rehabilitation Director, Rachael and Dr. Bergman constructed the movement protocols the clinic was founded upon.
Rachael is an excellent communicator and teacher able to translate the most technical information making it applicable to each patient. She provides movement therapy instruction incrementally to allow patients to progress at a rate that is comfortable and challenging.
Trained by some of the top yoga and pilates instructors in the world, Rachael was hired by Rancho La Puerta to further develop their yoga and meditation programs while helping launch their pilates program.
Rachael's decades of experience in movement and yoga therapy qualified her for an invitation to be the first non doctor accepted into the diplomate program for Rehabilitation from Los Angeles College of Chiropractic.
She was the first certified Pilates instructor in the Walnut Creek / Tri-Valley Area. Upon arrival, Rachael pioneered or renewed yoga programs at 24hr Fitness (WC), Linda Evans, Valley Vista Club (now Club Sport) and Lafayette Health Club.
