HEALTH SOLUTIONS - Key Persons
As Dr. Rob's practice is in a facility that's associated with a Gold's Gym, he naturally encounters athletes of all ages. An interesting exchange took place in 2002 when Health Solutions was being finalized. Some of the WWE wrestlers were working out there before their show that evening. Dr. Rob was able to help assist one of the wrestlers with an elbow problem. "I said, ‘If you guys need me tonight give me a call.'"
Though he didn't have his license in hand yet, Dr. Rob was undeterred. He called the Professional Board of Regulations in Springfield to inquire about when he'd receive it. They told him he'd have it that day and he was legal to go. About two hours later Dr. Rob got a call from the WWE asking if he could go down to the civic center that night to work on the guys. "The first person who met me in the hallway to get adjusted was Hulk Hogan." Dr. Rob still has that picture with Hogan and his signature hanging in his office as a reminder of that day.
Dr. Adam Gingras is a native of Central Illinois and grew up in Tremont Illinois. After high school, his studies continued at Illinois Central College and then Illinois State University. He received his bachelor's of science in 2005 with a major in biology and a minor in chemistry. While in college he knew he was destined to be in the healthcare field but wanted to try his hand in aquatic ecology first. Dr. Adam joined the Illinois Natural History Survey for several years as a fisheries technician, but soon found his true calling as a chiropractor.
In October of 2009, Dr. Adam began his studies at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. The coursework was challenging but he excelled at his studies and skills. Just to make things more challenging for himself, Dr. Adam would travel back and forth to Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana to see his fiance and now wife, nearly every weekend. On February 22, 2013, Dr. Adam graduated Magna Cum Laude from Palmer College of Chiropractic and returned to Central Illinois to practice.
As a former competitive powerlifter, strongman and bodybuilder Dr. Rob has traveled the country competing in the sports he loves. Dr. Rob challenged himself by doing a Strongman competition, four bodybuilding shows and two powerlifting events in three months. Dr. Rob finished first in his strongman, powerlifting competitions while getting a 5th place in Chicago in bodybuilding and in his other three shows he finished strong with first places in his divisions and best poser awards in the final two shows. He was told that a bodybuilder could not be a powerlifter and vice versa aswell as being a strongman, so Dr. Rob did all three in three months.
Dr. Rob's commitment to his love of sports spills over to benefit others. He is now a coach and is the promoter/ hosts with his wife for the Mr. and Mrs. Illinois bodybuilding competition and Muscle on Main strongman competitions. Dr. Rob and his wife also founded a company called ProBody Supplements. Dr. Rob, in collaboration with the labs, designs his own protein powder, supplements and vitamins for all age groups.
