Dr. Bo Knows

Hey, I’m Dr. Bo

Chiropractor • Educator • Speaker

I was born in Croatia, grew up as a refugee in Germany, and later immigrated to Canada. Those early experiences taught me resilience, adaptability, and the value of community. My childhood was filled with sports, movement, and mentorship, which led me to earn degrees in Kinesiology and Education. Before becoming a chiropractor, I worked as a teacher and wellness consultant, and my passion for education still drives everything I do.

I moved to California to study at Life Chiropractic College West, where I gained a deeper understanding of the body and its ability to heal. Volunteer trips to Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and India opened my eyes to the universal power of human touch and the impact of intentional care.

After building a busy chiropractic practice in San Diego, I realized that true healing required more than adjustments. It called for education, movement, and a sustainable approach to health. That realization sparked the vision for ANIMA Movement Center, a place where people come not just to feel better, but to learn how to become their own healers.

Today, I combine my background as an educator with my experience in chiropractic and holistic wellness to help people let go of pain, stress, and self-limiting beliefs so they can live energized and fulfilled lives.
