About Dr. Minarik

Ryan Minarik, ND, LAc, is not only a naturopathic doctor, but a licensed acupuncturist as well. He practices at FoRM Health PDX in Portland, Oregon, where he specializes in treating chronic pain, athletic injuries, and joint conditions.

Growing up, Dr. Minarik loved science and sports, and his mother was passionate about nutrition. This combination led him to study pre-med as an undergraduate at the University of Washington in Seattle. However, during his studies, it became clear to him that conventional medicine left out many holistic therapies and lifestyle practices that were just as important in treating disease and dysfunction.

Dr. Minarik decided to study both naturopathic and Chinese medicine at the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, then completed a two-year residency.

He now brings over a decade of experience to his practice, and believes that his role is to help encourage each patient’s body to access its innate ability to heal itself. He offers medically effective therapies and refers patients for surgical or medical treatment when necessary, but in general, he focuses on holistic, nonsurgical methods. These include injection therapies such as prolotherapy and PRP, acupuncture, dry needling, myofascial release, kinesiotaping, and ultrasound-guided therapy.

When Dr. Minarik isn’t enjoying one of Portland’s many parks or working on a home improvement project, he can be found running, mountain biking, playing tennis, rock climbing, kiteboarding, snowboarding, or paddle boarding. He’s also a fervent fan of the Portland Timbers soccer team and the proud father of two young daughters.


What My Patients Say

“Dr. Minarik is very skilled and knowledgeable about prp and prolotherapy. He is very thorough and precise in his treatments. He has a very good bedside manner with patients and explains his findings and treatments very thoroughly. I drive from the south coast of Oregon to see him because of this.”

–PRP & Prolotherapy Patient

“Dr Minarik is fantastic! Has done an excellent job treating our son and balanced ongoing practical sports participation with medical and treatment options. Also a great communicator and bedside manner. We trust and highly recommend Dr Minarik.”

–PRP & Prolotherapy Student Athlete

“I got 3 PRP treatments in my knee from Dr Minarik about 2 years ago. The results have been very positive. I’m a 76 year old active hiker. I was in a lot of pain before the treatments but subsequently have been able to walk 10 miles a day for 17 consecutive days on a trek in Europe.”

–PRP Patient

“Dr. Minarik is awesome. Kind, warm, and spent plenty of time with me for my treatment. Plan to definitely go back.”

get me feeling better. Really felt like he had an incredible understanding and passion for his career.”

–Orthopedics Patient

He provides thorough and thoughtful analysis of the issue, reasonable, supportive and thorough treatments, and has provided me with excellent results. With Dr. Minarik’s help, so much of my problem has been resolved, and I feel confident with the improvement going forward. He has a great office team and will be the first place I call if I have a problem in the future.”

–Dry Needling, Prolotherapy & PRP Patient

“Dr. Minarik is incredibly knowledgable. He’s been helping me for the last year and he’s top notch. I’ve been impressed with his understanding of both eastern and western treatment options.”

Spring is on its way...but it’s not here yet!  Here are my top 3 recommendations for supporting yourself with food during the last weeks of winter:

🔥Supplement Spleen and Kidney Yang with nutrient dense and warming foods such lamb, beef, winter squash, and rice congees.  

🔥Add warm and acrid herbs/spices such as fresh ginger, black pepper, and green onions to your meals to help support digestion.  Pu-erh tea or a cinnamon and dried ginger combo are great warming drinks.

🔥Avoid cold food and iced drinks- they put out the digestive fire we need to fully transform and transport nutrients from our food.  Cold in the digestive system can lead to bloating, loose stool, tiredness, and foggy brain.

Dr. Kai’s Dry January Mocktail ideas: 1. CBD + Dr. Kai’s Dry January Mocktail ideas:

1. CBD + Kombucha: combine 10-50mg CBD tincture from @select_cbd with your favorite “dry” (ie low sugar) kombucha (try locally made @hmkpnw)...gives you a much-needed chill-out vibe

2. Ginger + Turmeric tonic: served warm or cold, @drinkrhizome, is an excellent replacement for your evening cocktail. Good for your gut, skin, and overall health.

3. Delicious mixers from @silverjulep - homemade blends of aromatic herbs + fruit juices...just skip the booze.

Start 2021 with your best self!
