Micheila is committed to ferret out what is true in these immense times of change. We are quickly moving into the Fourth Industrial Revolution —uncharted territory that humans have little awareness. Much of the groundwork and infrastructure has been laid. Micheila has been researching this, as a veracious empath – to discover and KNOW what truth in these times of change.

He has also acted at Lincoln Center, the American Shakespeare Theatre, Colorado Shakespeare Festival, DC’s Studio Theatre and even at the Asolo. He counts not only FST’s Kate Alexander and Richard Hopkins as his most-respected mentors but likewise Frank Galati who taught him at Northwestern University to respect the miracle of language and linguistic specificity.

– Dr. Smithers had his entry into medicine, studying Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda. After graduating Top of his class in Oriental Medicine he went on to enter Western Medical school. He graduated Cum Laude from Medical School but his time in the hospital reaffirmed his awareness that western medicine shines in some areas and it is extremely misguided in others. While allopathic medicine is unparalleled in the areas of emergency and Trauma medicine, it is remarkably deficient in its ability to address chronic disease.
The western model is based on symptom management and does extraordinarily little to address the root cause or alter the disease process. In addition, the Allopathic model has a very Newtonian, linear and reductionist view of the human body while the traditional philosophies understood that the body is a multidimensional and infinitely intelligent quantum pattern of energy.
The new physics is confirming what the ancient traditions knew all along and it is through this lens that the body can be brought into a proper balance and one in which true healing can occur. Dr. Smithers has received extensive postgraduate training in regenerative injection therapies through the American Association of Orthopedic Medicine (AAOM) and is one of only a few doctors in Florida using Prolozone Therapy with huge success.

Twenty years ago, Butch suffered from low back pain so bad that he would crawl out of his car with his hands and then pull himself up to a standing position using the door handle.
Today, he is pain free no matter what he does. That injury led him to become a massage therapist to learn basic muscle knowledge. Then he became certified in Active Isolated Stretching which taught him how to stretch correctly.
Finally, he studied with a neurosurgeon/researcher in brain health which taught him how much the brain controls the muscles from an emotional level.
He combined these three things into the “Stretch n’ Release Technique.” Once he understood how his brain anticipated the pain in his body, he could let go that anticipation. Combining the releasing from the brain, a massage style that anyone can do, and Active Isolated Stretching, he was able to release the pain and free his body.
At 60, he is more flexible, has more energy, and has virtually no pain. He teaches his clients how to live without the typical pain of aging.

In her early career as a psychotherapist, Wendy enjoyed a thriving private practice. Later, she felt a strong call to animal communication (AC). Now, her AC clients get relief from grief over a sick or deceased pet, clarity about their readiness to transition, data about the pet’s mission on earth, and fun…. all from the pet’s perspective. Wendy is a Reiki practitioner and uses many forms of energetic healing. She teaches international classes where everyone can participate by phone. Students learn how to do AC with their pets, even if only to let the pets know when they will return home after an absence. Wendy is co-author of the renowned book, “The Spirit of Women Entrepreneurs.” Wendy’s mission is to be a voice for the animals, to assist humans to be in harmony with all species, and to guide people to live as their best selves with and for their pets.
Animals are amazing healers & teachers! Animal communication (AC) connects us with animals, telepathically, accessing their wisdom on many levels. The animals love being heard about their preferences and assisting us on our paths!
Animal communication is powerful, relieving, and offers guidance for humans. The animals like being warned before there are household changes. They love to share their missions (why they are with you now) and their ascensions (their purpose on their spiritual path) so their humans can assist them to serve and grow. Animals like to give data before, during, and after their transition (death). Clients may feel complete after just one session. Other clients choose to be on their spiritual path with their animals, so they do regular AC sessions for connection and guidance. Human ability to do AC is hard-wired and natural. It is ‘intuition on steroids,’ although it does take practice. Clients take classes to learn simple techniques for telepathic connection with their pets and other animals, and/or to incorporate AC into their respective healing practices!

I entered this area of medicine after I became disenchanted with cookbook medicine that focuses on naming a disease, blaming the disease and taming the disease with drugs and surgery. I found traditional medicine to be very good at treating severe illness, but woefully inadequate when it came to treating people with chronic illnesses.”
“I want to help people thrive and live healthy, vital lives. I want to help people prevent diseases, avoid unnecessary surgeries and achieve real wellness. Integrative Medicine combines the best of Western Medicine with alternative and holistic therapies. I want to help the whole person, not just an illness. And I believe that optimal wellness is much more than the absence of illness. It’s functioning at 100% of your abilities for the rest of your life. I love giving my patients the tools and treatments to achieve that
I experimented with everything Western Medicine had to offer, which included various RX drugs, nerve blocks, physical therapy, etc., all to no avail. This eventually led me to find the functional and holistic health space where I turned my efforts away from trying to manage symptoms, to identifying and properly addressing root causes. Finding the Institute of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition®, and ultimately becoming a certified practitioner, catapulted me into the next level of healing and helped me evolve into the dynamic bio-hacker that I am today
