Dr. Nelson began his medical career as a orthopedic surgeon
but after several years decided to concentrate on the treatment
of chronic spinal pathology using a fitness approach to treat
thousands of patients. As a founder and board member of Physicians
Neck and Back Clinics (PNBC), he has lectured around the
world, conducted several research studies, and published several
articles in peer-reviewed medical journals. These published outcomes studies support the effectiveness
of this "sports medicine" approach and suggest it is
generally the best therapeutic modality for long term improvement
of chronic disorders of the spine.
