Integrative Health for Performance Enhancement with Dr. Timothy Stark Proven Health Alternatives

    • Alternative Health

I had a great conversation with Dr. Timothy Stark, Director of the Human Performance Center at NWHSU, and I'm excited to share this with all of you. With his focus on physical rehabilitation, nutrition, incorporating advanced chiropractic techniques, and strength & conditioning, Dr. Stark shares how his program achieves great outcomes for their athlete patients, and teaches students the importance of integrative health. 
Timothy Stark, MPhil, MBA, DC, DACBSP, ICSC, CSCS, EMT, FICC originally from North Dakota, completed a bachelors degree in 1990 at North Dakota State University in Exercise Physiology and then went on to Northwestern College of Chiropractic where he completed his DC degree and subsequently pioneered an American residency in the specialty of Sports Injuries and Rehabilitation. He practiced in West Fargo, North Dakota for almost ten years before moving his family to Australia to assist with the development of a new chiropractic program at Murdoch University. This new School of Chiropractic and Sports Science allowed opportunities to instruct Physical Rehabilitation, Clinical Orthopedics, Clinical Neurology, Physiotherapeutics and Applied Clinical Nutrition courses. He was also the Chair of the post-graduate and graduate programs including the Masters of Sports Science. While in Australia, he contributed to the development of a ‘sister’ program in Japan
His publications are on the topics of physical rehabilitation and strength and conditioning. His current research efforts are directed towards Human Performance and Rehabilitation and addressing specifically recovery, injury prevention and performance enhancement.
In the last eight years, he has transitioned from being a fulltime lecturer & Chair of the Clinical Sciences Department at National University of Health Sciences (2011-2013), to the Dean of the College of Chiropractic at Northwestern Health Sciences University (2013-2014) and now more recently, the Director of the Human Performance Center at NWHSU (2014-present). He has coordinated the post-graduate educational programs for NWHSU for the specialties of Sports Chiropractic and Physical Rehabilitation for the past twenty years. He is also the Chair of the Education Commission for the Federation of International Sports Chiropractic (FICS).
Dr. Stark was recently recognized by the American Chiropractic Association and awarded the 2017 Academician of the Year. Also in 2017, the American Chiropractic Association Sports Council Awarded him the Sports Chiropractor of the Year.
