Michael Guen, Ph.D., LAc..

As a healer and teacher I continue to study and find new and innovative ways to help my patients in their healing process. Drawing from eastern and western traditions, I created a "one effort" approach to therapy whereby all aspects of life and experience play a part in one's illness and recovery.

In addition to the natural therapies I offer, I teach my patients to use their "illness as a spiritual advisor". You can lean to discover and transform patterns lying at the root of any disease or dysfunction. Childhood memories, accidents, trauma, including family and relationship conflicts, professional challenges, unfulfilled dreams, are all possible factors.

Studying the symbology of one's illness from the vantage point of spiritual growth, I help my patients define their karma and destiny. Working through the physical to spiritual realms together in a one-on-one setting, you can gain the self-awareness and self-control needed for transformation and healing.
