Dr. Mark, Board Certified in Atlas Orthogonal, found great relief from pain through Chiropractic and realized this was his passion. Originally an Electrical Engineer, attending Palmer College of Chiropractic, Dr. Mark experienced the gentle precision of Atlas Orthogonal and interned at the Sweat Institute of Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic with Dr. Roy Sweat, the inventor of Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic. After two years of intensive instruction in Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic, Dr. Mark returned to Chicago to help Chicagoland get rid of pain. It is very rewarding to see the smiling face of my patients when they are no longer bothered by pain.
