Chiropractor Thea Lærum Bentzen
Thea qualified as a chiropractor at the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic (AECC) / University of Portsmouth in 2004, earning her Master of Chiropractic (MSc) and BSc (Hons). After 15 years of experience at Nemus Storo and Bjølsen-klinikken, she established her own practice in Røa in 2019. In October 2026, she joined Dr.Dropin Fysikalske, where she now works as part of a strong interdisciplinary team at the clinic in Røa Næringspark. Thea is a member of the Norwegian Chiropractors' Association (Norsk Kiropraktorforening).
In her daily practice, she treats everything from classic back and neck complaints to more complex conditions. She has specialized expertise in headaches and temporomandibular disorders (TMD/jaw complaints) through post-graduate education in cranial and jaw treatment. As one of the practitioners on the Norwegian Directorate of Health's list of approved TMD diagnosticians, she works closely with specialized dentists, including those at Ullevål Hageby Tannklinikk.
Women's health, pregnancy, and pediatric care are also close to her heart. She holds a two-year post-graduate diploma in pediatric and pregnancy care, providing safe follow-up throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period.
In her treatments, she combines gentle joint manipulation techniques with tailored soft tissue and muscle work, as well as kinesiology taping/RockTape when needed.
As a primary contact practitioner in the healthcare system—similar to a general practitioner—Thea can refer patients to medical specialists, MRI or other diagnostic imaging, and grant sick leave for up to 12 weeks when clinically necessary.
