Professional Biography
A Clinician Who Built His Practice Around What Actually Works
Dr. Paul M. Bekkum has spent more than three decades in clinical practice refining an approach to health that refuses to separate the structural from the systemic. After earning his Doctor of Chiropractic degree and subsequently obtaining his Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioner (CCEP) designation, Dr. Bekkum recognized that conventional chiropractic, while effective for structural problems, was insufficient for patients whose pain and dysfunction had metabolic, hormonal, or genetic drivers. This insight led him to pursue advanced training in functional medicine through the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), the Kalish Protocol, 3x4 Genetics, and functional blood chemistry analysis.
The result is a clinical model that Dr. Bekkum built into Integrix Health: a practice where patients receive both the structural rehabilitation and the systemic investigation they need in one place, guided by one clinician who sees the whole person. Dr. Bekkum founded Integrix Health at 22 6th Street North, Moorhead, MN 56560, serving patients from Moorhead MN, Fargo ND, West Fargo ND, and — via telehealth — throughout North Dakota and Minnesota. He is also the architect of the StructureIQ Kinetic Blueprint Report assessment framework, which uses 3D motion analysis technology to provide an objective, data-driven basis for chiropractic rehabilitation and corrective exercise.
