Brian Cork, MS, LAc, has been working with everyone from professional rock climbers, skydivers, paragliders, surfers, ultra-runners, Iron Man athletes, cyclists and hard-working weekend warriors for over 15 years, helping people to get back in the saddle after injury, and optimize performance for projects or competitions.
He is a Licensed Acupuncturist with a Masters of Science in Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine from the Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine College in Berkeley, CA, and a Certification in Massage Therapy and Health Education from the National Holistic Institute specializing in Myofascial Therapy. Whether you are looking to heal from sports-related injuries & optimize performance, or if you're dealing with chronic long-term pain related to overwork and are simply hoping to get back to living your life, I can help. I frequently work with these common Issues: -Sports injuries -Shoulder, upper back and neck pain -Low back pain -Overuse injuries -Recovery following orthopedic surgery -Scoliosis -Tendonitis -Disc degeneration -Rotator cuff injuries -Knee ligament injuries -Ankle sprains -Carpal tunnel -Whiplash injuries |
TENSEGRITY: a fusion of 'tension' and 'integrity,' indicating that structural integrity comes from a balance of tensional forces. The body distributes force and tension through the body via the interconnected myofascial web.

SESSIONS: Dial in your specific pattern and issues, and find relief from pain while developing more functional mobility. -We make some deep structural shifts during each session, and then you assimilate the work into your own daily, proprioceptive reality. -One of the goals is to shift the patterns leading to chronic pain and over-use injury, assessing the local complaints, then looking at the global-big-picture of how your whole body is moving. -Often the structural cause of pain is not where you feel it, so we work with unbinding or activating myofascial and neurological connections in relation to your patterns. -This work is INTEGRATIVE not 'alternative.' We use scientific observation, research and technology to better understand and apply the traditional, therapeutic techniques and principles of Acupuncture in a modern world. -This work is Evidence-Informed, based in direct feedback, and palpable results.
