I have had a passion for understanding the body and health since I was 8 yrs old. My parents tried to push me to go to medical school, but the best fit for me was to help cure and prevent disease through holistic sources. It became well known to me that there is no one single approach to fit all ailments. I became a NYS certified and licensed Wellness Practitioner in 1998.

My Motivation:

Through various health struggles of my own as well as family and friends, I made it a life long goal to help as many people as I can and work to guide them back to a sustainable health and wellness foundation and help to reprogram their bad habits into healthy ones. It’s easy to get caught up in dietary weight loss trends and powerful food brand marketing, but it’s very challenging to find a good support system to lead you down the right path to vitality, good health and longevity. Humans are not all biologically the same. It takes a customized approach and plenty of trials using real food as medicine and a great deal of positive re-enforcement.


EXPERIENCES:

Wonderfully detailed, compassionate and knowledgeable. Michael changed by whole world regarding food and what I thought was healthy——- Lisa K.
It was eye opening working with Mbe wellness. It showed me how easy some food changes were and how difficult and complicated some have become with the marketing of food products and the assumption of what’s healthy because it says it on the “box” I’m grateful for the knowledge and steady guidance I received from Michael. —Jenny L.
Movement sessions with Mike have made me significantly more aware of my posture and how I carry myself. The movements are astonishingly difficult for being so seemingly simple! My favorite part about working with Mike is he really tailors the sessions to suit your individual needs and focuses on the pain at hand; no generic classes here. Every time I leave a session I feel significantly less restriction in my body. Nutrition was a major part of my recovery.—Christine M.
I like the subscription model because it makes it a lot more affordable to get consistent support. I feel so much better knowing I have a person like Michael who truly cares about his clients well-being. I feel amazing and lost 30 pounds of fat I didn’t need.—Richard S.
I can highly recommend movement sessions with Mbe Wellness . He Introduced me to his work at a time when I truly needed to reconnect and align my body through movement. He is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and a master at his craft. He has a gift for teaching and making the experience fun while challenging the mind and body. —M T
I am a frequent visitor and I have to say this place, and my therapist Mike B totally changed my life. I’ve received thousands of massages in my life and none have ever been as effective as Mike’s. Not only is it a chance to relax, but he actually works to reverse the damage that we do to our bodies daily. I came to him when I was very sick and his holistic approach healed me when traditional medicine hadn’t worked. He is so smart and knowledgeable and really takes the time to teach you about your body, what you need and what he’s doing and how it all works to heal. I appreciate his expertise and his demeanor. He is so kind and easy to talk to and bends over backwards to work within your schedule. I now won’t get massages anywhere else because I know they just won’t compare. I can’t thank or recommend Mike B enough!!! —Grace M
One of the highlights of this place and these very people is their ability to listen and understand. The category of good communication is one that can often go overlooked. When it comes to overall wellness, it is sometimes difficult to get someone to change a program. But, sometimes there are people who know how to say things just the right way and you MAKE that change. Mbe wellness has just the right things for everyone that passes though those doors. I. Am. Convinced— Grant W.
I’ve been seeing Mike B. for almost a year to help manage a painful, chronic condition. I can truly say there is no better place you can find yourself than on his table for treatment (either due to an injury or preventative care). He is a master therapist who has helped increase my mobility and activity level after years of pain and stiffness. He is dedicated and cares about the wellbeing of each of his clients! Highest recommendation! —Lise H
Michael is an expert at health and wellness. If you are interested in taking a deep dive into you are in the right hands.— Melissa H.
I consulted with Mike about my fibromyalgia and he gave me advice on my diet. I am hiring him to create an anti inflammatory meal plan, so that I can live my best life! —Jennifer C.
Following the direction advised I was able to get control of my autoimmune disease! Micheal worked with me for months to discover what my inflammatory triggers are. This was the most difficult time of my life. I’m thankful I did not have to go the journey alone. Michael really works with you to customise your own plan and to guide you through the day to day. I was able to ask questions any time I needed to. I really felt taken care of. I will never get over my autoimmune disease but with Michael’s help I have it under control. You have to be willing to make changes for your well being if you want to live well. —Suzanne A.
I love this place. I have gone to Mike B for treatment and I always feel great. I like the idea that you can go to a clinic for a corrective treatment and get expert advise on how to continue to manage at home. I have never felt so cared for and I have been getting all kinds of treatments for years .. this is the most comfortable I have ever felt. Thank you! I recommend him to everyone. —Clara M.
