About Us

---

Dr. Dijkstra was born in Calgary, AB, Canada. Soon afterwards he moved  to Europe where he lived in Holland, Belgium and Germany before moving  to Massachusetts when he was nine. After attending finishing elementary  and starting junior high school, he moved to Yellowknife, NWT, Canada  for high school. After high school, Dr. Dijkstra moved to Calgary to  attend the University of Calgary where he graduated on the Dean's list  with a B.Sc in Zoology and published two papers about flying lizards.  Soon afterwards, he moved to Los Angeles to study chiropractic at the  Los Angeles College of Chiropractic (now SCUHS) where he graduated Summa  Cum Laude with a DC (Doctorate of Chiropractic.)  In 2003 Dr. Dijkstra  moved to the East part of the Netherlands to work as an associate until  2006 when he joined another practice in the West of the Netherlands and  worked there until 2009. In 2009 he started his own practice, Dijkstra  Chiropractie, in The Hague. In 2014 Dr. Dijkstra and his wife made the  decision to return to North America to be closer to family and moved to  New Jersey.

While working in the Netherlands, he  had a chance to work with International, national, divisional and  recreational level soccer (football), rugby, equestrian, and field  hockey athletes.  He also worked with many recreational runners of all  distances. It was with his first encounter with an international level  soccer player that he became interested in pursuing sports medicine  which led him to study and attain the International Chiropractic Sport  Science Physician (ICSSP ® ) title with the Federation Chiropractique du  Sport (FICS) and an M.Sc. in Applied Sports and Rehabilitation through  the Anglo European College of Chiropractic and the University of  Bournemouth. In 2020 he achieved the highest level of sport chiropractic accreditation in the United States - the Diplomate from the American Chiropractic Board of Sports Physicians 

(DACBSP ® .)

With  his involvement in Sport and post doctoral education, Dr. Dijkstra  noticed two things. The first that the advanced techniques developed to  help athletes perform better and heal from injuries quicker worked for  everyone! Secondly, that while studying he learned evidence based  medicine which allowed him to communicate with the various sporting  organizations and their medical personnel better.

When  Dr. Dijkstra is not working, he likes to spend time with his family,  trying to out lift 20 year-olds at the gym and frustrate himself with  various DIY projects.

Growing up and still residing in Florham Park, NJ, Dr. Mitola is deeply

connected to the local community he now serves. He attended Gill St. Bernard’s

High School, competing against the best basketball teams in the state and

cultivating his passion for movement and athletics. His journey continued at

George Washington University, where he played Division 1 men’s basketball, led

 Hi, I'm Kymberly! I started taking night classes at the Institute of Therapeutic Massage in 2019 and left my corporate job in 2020. While finishing at ITM I worked at a chiropractor's office. This gave me a unique style of Swedish and medical massage. I have also integrated hot stone treatments. I believe that massage can improve quality of life through reduced stress or pain. 

For fun, I like to read and chase after my two kids!
