Marc G. Pick
is a Doctor of Chiropractic with a private practice in Beverly Hills, California
since 1973. In a desire to enhance his services, he attended Emperors College
of Traditional Oriental Medicine from 1987-92, and in 1997, he completed
the American Chiropractic Association’s 300-hour postgraduate course in Neurology.
Dr. Pick is a lifetime member of the Sacro-Occipital-Technique Organization
(SOTO) – USA.
He earned his Diplomate and Fellowship status in Craniopathy through
the International Craniopathic Society and has lectured throughout the United
States, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Australia, England, France, Canada, and Switzerland
since 1979. Since 1973, he has accomplished several thousand hours of human
dissection and founded Project Human (the construction of a prosected latex
humanoid cast from the parts of human cadavers).
Naturally inquisitive about the intracranial impact of cranial manipulations,
he began investigating the visual effects of cranial manipulations upon
the intracranial structures during MRI scanning and was published in the
Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics (JMPT) in 1994. His
more recent work is the text, “Cranial Sutures: Analysis, Morphology &
Manipulative Strategies”, published and released through Eastland Press.
This text is a comprehensive guide to sutural analysis, morphology and manipulative
strategies which can aid the practitioner’s manipulative applications through
a greater understanding of the skull’s interarticular relationships.
In 1998, Dr. Pick was approached by the Pacific Asian Association of
Chiropractic (PAAC) to develop and conduct an ongoing course in human dissection
to be held annually at the medical school in Honolulu. Since that time the
course has been officially accepted as part of the medical school’s “Outreach
program” and is currently offered once each year. He has also just acquired
an assigned space at the UCLA School of Medicine Gross Anatomy Lab where
he is currently conducting personal research as well as synthetic humanoid
reconstructions.
Recently, Dr. Pick has created
a latex fiber optic model of the Human Central & Peripheral Nervous
System for the Wellcome Trust, which is being displayed in their 2002 Exhibition
at the London Museum of Science.
Dr. Pick has synthesized and organized chiropractic neurology and cranial
manipulation into a series of state of the art seminars as well as has developed
novel methods of neurological diagnosis and treatment. For more information
