Dr. Kent Rookstool, DC

Dr. Kent Rookstool has been caring for patients since 2012, after earning his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic West. Following several years of serving the Central Oregon community, he founded Central Oregon Chiropractic in 2015 and later Advanced Pain Solutions in 2022. His approach to care is grounded in clarity, attention to detail, and a genuine commitment to each patient’s experience. Dr. Kent prioritizes taking the time to understand what is driving symptoms so patients can feel confident in both their diagnosis and their plan moving forward. He also places strong emphasis on ongoing education, regularly pursuing advanced training to continue refining both his clinical skills and the care his team provides. Chiropractic care has been part of Dr. Kent’s life since childhood. Growing up, he stayed active with mountain biking, snowboarding, and motocross, and he experienced firsthand how chiropractic support helped him stay mobile and recover more effectively. Those early experiences shaped his decision to pursue this path. Having dealt with his own periods of significant back pain, he brings a personal understanding of what it means to be limited by discomfort. That personal experience continues to shape the way he works with patients today, with a focus on thoughtful care, honest guidance, and lasting progress.
