How Michael works with you

Each of these works across a broad range of symptoms on its own. Together they give Michael a flexible set of tools to build a plan around you.

How we work together

Michael takes the time to understand you.

Health is one's normal state when body, mind and spirit are in balance. Finding that balance takes more than a ten minute evaluation, so we build the visit around understanding your whole situation.

See how the first visit works
  1. Spend real time together

    Your first visit runs two hours: a baseline assessment with our staff, an hour with Michael, and your first treatment.

  2. Look for what's underneath

    Michael listens carefully to the many levels of your communication, discerning the imbalance showing itself as a set of symptoms, then confirms it with targeted assessments.

  3. Build your personal plan

    Comprehensive insight into your situation makes a rebalancing plan that is yours alone. Some of it happens in the office. Some of it you carry into daily life.

You and Michael work as a team toward your balance and health.

Body, mind, spirit
“Health is one's normal state when body, mind, and spirit are in balance.”

I do not believe that success is measured by the size of a client base nor achieved by eliminating symptoms. Comprehensive insight into each individual's situation allows me to build a unique life rebalancing plan.
