Dr. Borgardt received his degree from Life Chiropractic College West in 2006, setting off to Europe where he started his career working in England for the National Health System. After moving back to the United States, he treated patients at the highly regarded chiropractic office, Health In Balance, in Laguna Beach, CA. While working there he helped design nutrition, coordination, and competition training programs for teenage athletes that were going through the world qualifying series, as well as active and retired surfing professionals.

Many of his patients may not know that Dr. Borgardt also was the director of a laboratory, lecturing around the United States, training other practitioners on laboratory medicine. Around that time he also became a nutraceutical consultant for companies trying to manufacture scientifically-based programs for patient care.

Currently, Dr. Borgardt has a growing practice in downtown Kalispell, Montana. His treating style is often regarded as well-experienced, kind, but most of all willing to create a great healing process that patients can look forward to.

The techniques he uses are varied based upon the patients needs; For example, if he is working with an athlete that breaks things down just as quickly as they are created, he will use methods like Active Release Technique - advanced individual muscle massage or Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation - Specific type of stretching involving the whole joint system.

He also helps patients with complex cases, many of which are caused by personal and workplace injuries, car accidents, PTSD, concussions, sports related injuries, TMJ, Plantar Fasciitis, and even those who just slept on their pillow the wrong way.

Dr. Borgardt is currently completing neuro-diplomate coursework through the Carrick Institute for Graduate Studies and will take his exam through the American Chiropractic Neurology Board. Most of this type of chiropractic work is specific to the treatment of neurological disorders through sensory inputs.

On a personal note, Josh and his wife Krista decided to relocate to the Flathead Valley in 2014 to begin their lives together. They have fallen in love with the beauty of the area, the genuine sense of community, and the friendliness of the people. In their free times you'll see them walking their dog, Yogi Bear, around town, enjoying live music, practicing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, or camping, paddle boarding, and hiking around Montana, living a playful existence.

Finally, Dr. Borgardt is a person of integrity, humor and kindness. You can guarantee that he will be your trusted advocate as you begin treatments. Josh believes that all people deserve to move well and life life. He will work for you, and with you, as you find your way back to wellness!
