After falling in love with Seattle during his youthful Army days, he’s finally returned to the city, leaving behind a chapter spent raising his son in Massachusetts.

Michael’s journey into acupuncture was sparked by his undergraduate passion for medicine and a deep desire to help others. Initially engaged in DNA research, he discovered his calling in Traditional Chinese Medicine, developing expertise in Chinese herbs, cupping, auricular therapy, and other modalities. His experience spans over two decades, with particular proficiency in treating PTSD, psycho-emotional issues, digestive and autoimmune conditions, and physical pain. He thrives on addressing complex medical issues, especially autoimmune diseases.

Patients on the East Coast fondly remember his compassion, competence, and genuine interest in their well-being. Their loss is Seattle’s gain!
