Mark Bengtson, MPT

Mark, our owner and mentor, has a self-professed obsession with movement patterns and body biomechanics/pathomechanics and their influence on potential injuries and painful postural patterns in his patients. He loves mentoring his staff to continue to grow and develop their skills.  

He is motivated by patient successes (and smiling faces) and has a distinct love for physical therapy. His passion for helping people move better, feel better, and participate in life more fully is why he started Pinnacle. On a personal level, he has 3 amazing and beautiful children that are his treasures, and he loves leading them to pursue life’s opportunities enthusiastically and to love others. He is their biggest fan and enjoys watching them learn through rich experiences, navigating new life challenges, and compete in sports. He personally craves everything about the outdoors in North Idaho, including mountain biking, fly fishing, and snow skiing.
