About me

Brian Tetz is a dedicated healer and practitioner of Japanese-style acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and mind-body wellness. He holds a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine from the California Institute of Integral Studies and a Master of Oriental Medicine from the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine. With a passion for empowering people to be their best, Brian helps individuals break free from physical and emotional limitations to reclaim their vitality.

His approach is deeply rooted in understanding each person’s unique constitution, using gentle, pain-free Kiiko Matsumoto-style acupuncture, shiatsu, and alternative non-needle methods for sensitive patients. Beyond acupuncture, Brian is a master practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Mental and Emotional Release® Therapy, guiding people to release the negative baggage that holds them back.

Brian specializes in treating pain, anxiety, depression, stress, and thyroid conditions, but his work extends beyond symptom relief—he helps his patients restore balance and rediscover their potential. He also has a passion for movement and strength, teaching others how to swing heavy clubs and maces to rebuild resilience, regain health, and get back to the adventures they love.

When he’s not working with patients, Brian enjoys archery, video games, collecting fountain pens, swinging heavy clubs, and spending time in nature with family and friends. His mission is to help others move, heal, and thrive—both physically and mentally.
