About Dr. Gordon

Biography of Glen A Gordon MD

Dr Gordon received his medical degree from Creighton University in 1963, completed military service during the Vietnam conflict, then served as a Fellow at the National Institutes of Health before entering private practice.

Dr Gordon's interest in alternative medicine placed his practice "outside the box" when compared to more traditional medical practices. He became the first MD in the US approved to treat humans for soft tissue injury and arthritis using a "subtle energy" treatment known as pulsed electromagnetic field technology. Many acupuncturists use this technology today for electro-acupuncture and patients with needle phobia. Outside the US, PEMF is widely employed throughout the industrialized world.

Specializing in Sports Medicine, he developed several original rehabilitation techniques, which in combination with his "subtle energy" expertise resulted in extensive speaking tours throughout the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Central America. He also presented papers at International Sports meetings in Amsterdam and Barcelona. His original contributions to the field of sports medicine resulted in his being inducted as a Fellow into the American College of Sports Medicine in 1993. Volunteer positions include the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs and The Presidents Council on Physical Fitness and Sports regional council. He is a founding member of the National Strength Coaches Association, and has written original papers on the effects of exercise.

In addition to three original scientific articles, Dr Gordon authored a book on whiplash injury treatment. He is writing another on his use of "subtle energy" and alternative therapies to survive a near fatal heart attack at 38 years of age. Now 67, he completed a solo 2500 mile bicycle ride across the United States in fall of 2003.

Today he enjoys writing, conducting research on "subtle energy", and speaking.
