Dr. Rob Nielsen obtained his Bachelor of Physical Education from the University of British Columbia in 1986 and then went on to graduate with a Doctor of Chiropractic from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in 1990.

Dr. Nielsen is extremely passionate about the work he does. In fact, he has a bit of an obsession to do everything in his power to get patients out of pain and living their life again. He has an ongoing commitment to improving his clinical skills by frequently attending a variety of seminars, from rehab to soft tissue therapy.

What Makes You A Pioneer

Since I started, back in 1990, I was one of a few Chiropractors using soft tissue therapy and rehabilitative exercises with my treatments. I continue to look for new and innovative methods of healing in order to provide the best treatments for my patients.

Why Chiro

I was introduced to Chiropractic back during my studies at UBC. I injured my back while playing hockey and the pain persisted for many weeks despite a variety of treatments. Eventually a friend suggested I visit a Chiropractor and within a few treatments I was completely pain free. After that, I had a pretty good idea what my career was going to be!

Interesting Thing About You

I’m a passionate endurance athlete and enjoy racing triathlons. I’ve represented Canada in my age group at multiple World Championships and have completed multiple Ironmans including the famed Ironman Hawaii.

Client Love

  • F.M.
    I was pleasantly surprised by the sense of community, the warmth, and friendliness at the clinic when I came for my first visit. I’m now hooked! Addicted!
  • Jenny S.
    They work together as a team. I have so much trust in the whole set-up they have in place. The Doctor works with me and my comfort zone instead of doing what they want to do. They look at you as a whole person and are sensitive to you and who you are.
  • Jeff G.
    They are professional and consistent. They take their time to ask the right questions to see what's the root problem. It's the best service I've ever had. In my opinion, they're the best in the industry.
  • Patrick and Scarlet M.
    Performance Health Group’s Active Release Techniques® saved our dance career. Otherwise we would have spent another competition watching from the stands. Instead, we were able to enter and win the US Salsa Open in July 2013. Since then, we have become 3x Canadian salsa champions, multi-time world medalists, and Scarlet herself a world champion. Thank you just doesn't cut it!
  • Robert S.
    I really like the office and their attitude. I'm very familiar with Chiro clinics because I used to consult them. I know when I've found a good one.
  • Sherry R.
    All around health care - not just about the thing you have an issue with. They're accommodating, positive, they FIX YOU. I tell them my story and my experience. I'm walking proof that what they did WORKS.
  • Gabriela E.
    Just go there! You'll be very well taken care of and healed. They're pleasant, competent, friendly.
  • Sherry M.
    They are professional and have a genuine interest in the client's well-being.
  • Jenny S.
    A team of healthcare professionals that look at your health needs holistically and are there to provide any assistance possible. ** I LOVE going there and I love the results I get from there. Completely trustable. I'm lucky that I landed on the right place. I talk about them to everyone, all the time.
  • JoAnn P.
    It's a great place. The people I've met there are reliably helpful. Very welcoming and non-dismissing to older people and that's very important to me.”
  • Braden C.
    Active Release Techniques® was new to me and I didn’t know it would be so effective. In less than a month, I increased mobility and range of motion, and the pain was almost gone permanently. I would recommend it to anyone!
  • Ursula C.
    I’ve loved the clinic from my first visit. This experience has been better than any other and I recommend that anyone suffering with headaches get chiropractic care at Performance Health Group. It is great and the only way to go.
  • Pam S.
    The doctor had recommended that I rest, stay off my feet and ‘no exercise’. I was not prepared to put my life ‘on hold’! In a very short time being treated with Active Release Techniques®, Physiotherapy modalities, ice and gentle adjustments, I was able to resume my regular activities and now am free from pain and restriction.
  • Sherry R.
    My experience starts as I walk through the door. They are caring and the service is amazing. They go above and beyond. It’s not just a Chiro visit. I feel part of the family.
  • Lynn T.
    I have felt very comfortable from my very first visit. I find the practitioners to be personable and professional in their approach to my total wellness. They always provide time to listen to my injuries or complaints and addresses each with lots of explanation.
  • Mrs. E.M.H
    It seems like I have been suffering from leg pain for 20 years. I tried everything! After several treatments, the pain in my left thigh is almost completely gone. I am very grateful to Performance Health Group for their healing powers.
  • Andrea
    I had never had Active Release Techniques® (ART) before and was very pleasantly surprised with the results. I went to three or four sessions over two weeks and my symptoms virtually disappeared. ART is truly amazing; it really works!
  • Sean R.L.
    After a total of four visits, along with a steady effort on the exercises, I am able to get out and push hard on the bike without coming home in pain. Now, that’s really good!
  • Rossano G.
    I have been a member of the Italian National Rowing Team for 23 years, participating in 6 Olympic Games. In the last 10 years of my career I came to know the benefits of Chiropractic care, discovering the efficacy of these treatments allowing me to train at a high level resolving and/or preventing musculoskeletal injuries.
  • Jillian W.
    Performance Health Group's massage therapists are absolutely fantastic! I've been consistently going for the last year. They are warm, down to earth and can rock out a great therapeutic massage.
  • Peter B.
    The registered massage therapists at Performance Health Group helped me to stay injury free and to run the Vancouver Marathon fast enough to qualify for Boston; a goal which I thought was out of reach. Thanks for everything!
  • Simone Raineri
    Chiropractic has helped me improve my athletic performance because it has allowed me to train harder and in perfect balance, maximizing my potential.
  • Paul McCallum
    As a Kicker with the BC lions for 21 CFL seasons I have been coming to Performance Health Group for 20 years and there is a reason for it. They are very good at what they do and they care! They are always learning and finding the latest techniques to help you. I don't know if I would have played that long if I was not seeing them.
  • Laurie Harding
    For the last 10 years Dr Rob and his team at PHG has helped me to train, recover from injury and avoid surgery. I was originally referred by friends when I was waiting to be referred for surgery on a repetitive strain injury. They convinced me to give Dr. Rob a try to see if he could help. I was skeptical that a chiropractor could help the problem. After a few treatments, my shoulder was feeling much better and the surgery was never scheduled.
  • Solomon Elimimian
    Dr Nielsen and the PHG team has played an important part in keeping me healthy and on the field. Prior to seeing Rob I had been dealing with hamstring issues, his Active Release Techniques® and treatment approach has allowed me to stay healthy. I appreciate the work Rob and the PHG team do in order to keep my body feeling great allowing me to perform at a top level.
