Rob has been studying an eclectic mix of East Asian martial arts for over 20 years. The philosophy underpinning these martial art systems as well as an innate desire to help people led Rob to earn his Doctorate of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine at the Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture (PIHMA) in 2021. At PIHMA, Rob was drawn to study Master Tung and Dr. Tan systems of acupuncture. Rob also attended over 35 hours of trigger point dry needling training while at PIHMA.

While studying at PIHMA, Rob decided to deepen his knowledge of the healing arts by becoming a licensed massage therapist. While studying massage at Chandler Gilbert Community College he was afforded the opportunity to intern with the Arizona Rattlers arena football team and the Phoenix Mercury WNBA team. After massage school Rob worked for a sports massage office in Tempe, AZ, where he was given the opportunity to work with ASU athletics and the Arizona Cardinals.
