“What causes chronic health distress? Inflammation is the body’s protective response meant for short-term protection. Illness, or even death, is caused by a chronic, lingering combination of stress, anxiety, depression and inflammation. Chronic inflammation pushes your sympathetic nervous system into overdrive. Cortisol increases and weakens your immune system, limiting your ability to heal.
Deepak Chopra’s work has demonstrated that meditation, yoga, breathing and the body’s inherent yet seldom accessed intuitive & creative biological responses all fight this disease process by activating the healing response. My life goal has been to use these methods to reduce inflammation within the human physiology, while boosting the body’s ability to heal.”

“When chiropractic, exercise and conventional medicine could not heal my frozen shoulder and lingering symptoms from acute whiplash, John quickly made a real difference. He was recommended to me as “the wizard.” His meditative approach, memorable way of explaining how to take care of myself, and deeply intuitive bodywork changed everything. Driving an hour one-way to see John is totally worth it!”
