The Source Chiropractic - Berkeley

It has been a pleasure working with Dr. Brian! I transferred to him upon my previous chiropractor leaving. Dr. Brian reviewed my chart with that chiropractor and asked what my goals were moving forward. He then got me on a schedule of chiropractic care that fit my needs and availability. I always feel heard and his adjustments are gentle yet powerful and always with intention. He's amazing! And The Source Berkeley is "a vibe." Definitely go try them out!

I was looking for a holistic approach to dealing with my aches and pains. I had gone to a chiropractor before but it left a sour taste. When I found Dr Freddy on Instagram I loved his videos and said "Thats what I'm looking for". Dug deeper and then found Dr Marian. When I first met with her it was complete magic, instant click. I haven't felt this alive in so long. I feel heard, safe and she helped me restart my healing journey. Front desk is super friendly and amazing. Love the crew at the Source Berkeley, makes you feel like family. Can't thank y'all enough for existing.

I love how inviting this space is! I’ve been seeing Dr. Brian for the past month and I would like to say my experience is exceptionally great starting with the front desk staff. Manalo (sp) is so welcoming and accommodating the minute you enter and leave the building! Dr. Brian is a wizard in his craft and I love that he’s educating me in everything he does and why. You can tell he really cares for his patients and not just a number to get in and out of the door. I’ve been dealing with some upper shoulder/neck pain and since I’ve been seeing him, I’m finally getting the relief I need. Thank you!

***This place saved my life*** I cannot express how grateful I am for Dr. Collins-Bride and the whole team here at The Source Chiropractic! I originally had some skepticism surrounding chiropractors in general since I had a prior negative experience many years ago at a different practice. Now, I highly recommend chiropractic treatment to anyone and everyone!!! I previously had back surgery when I was 18 years old and now, 10+ years later, my disc was herniated once again. The pain and exhaustion I experienced affected every single aspect of my life and I was at a breaking point. Luckily, we were able to find Dr. Collins-Bride through a mutual friend and he changed my life. My personalized treatment plan was very detailed (with progress videos!) and included regular check-ins with longer one-on-one sessions (see below). More than half-way through my treatment plan, I suffered an injury on the job and was completely devastated. Dr. Collins-Bride was so quick to adjust (pun intended 😊) my existing plan to accommodate my ultimate health goals post-injury. I paid for my original treatment plan upfront and I was not pressured to pay for my adjusted plan until my pre-paid sessions were completed. The majority of my appointments were held in the beautiful open floor plan- this can be intimidating at first, but once you’re on the table it is more comfortable than you would think! The calming music is just loud enough that you can relax and also ensure conversation privacy between patients even though you may physically be in close proximity to one another. The friendly staff are very accommodating in all aspects- especially when it comes to scheduling appointments! They are very understanding and will work with you to do whatever it takes to ensure you stay on track and continue through your health journey, whatever it may be. I felt so supported by everyone in the practice; physically, mentally and emotionally. This is genuinely a safe space. They will truly help you heal in every way; body, mind and soul. Please note: Dr. Collins-Bride is my main provider but due to scheduling conflicts I have been personally seen/adjusted by Dr. Garcia (Freddy) and Dr. Trowbridge (Mara) as well! They were all very professional and knew my name/read my file so they knew exactly what I was going through/my treatment plan and still gave me the care and attention that Dr. Collins-Bride has always shown me.

I’ve been going to Dr. Brendan for almost 6 months and I can say without a doubt that he (and the caring, supportive community at The Source) have helped me fundamentally change my relationship with my body. I went in because I was having hip pain. Not only is the pain miles better, now I have more energy, I’m standing taller, and I am much more active than before. Dr. Brendan is warm, compassionate, and can perceive energy flows in my body. I feel so safe and supported with every adjustment. I’ve also gotten a huge benefit from the events I get access to as a member of The Source. I especially loved the Healing Essentials workshop that taught me that healing is learning, and growth is opportunity. I definitely want to go back to Dr. Brendan’s monthly breathwork event, that was a connected, introspective, and clearing ritual. I’ve recommended a number of friends to the Source, and everyone raves about the fundamental shifts that can happen when you seek the care and support of these talented chiropractors (and their fabulous staff.) I highly recommend checking out the Source Berkeley if you are dealing with any ache and pains, or if you want to be more in touch with your body, nervous system, and essence. Thank you, Dr. Brendan and team!! I’m so grateful to be part of the Source community!
