Health and wellness are precious things. Attaining them can be difficult, and many people find that they simply can’t do it on their own. Some of these people turn to self-help regimens for guidance, but there are so many available that it can often be difficult to tell the good from the bad. Dr. Mike Van Theilen strives to stand apart from his competition in the health and wellness self-help sphere. Dr. Mike is a licensed physical therapist, a licensed acupuncture physician, and a doctor of Oriental medicine, with certifications in injection therapy, homeopathy, homotoxicology, Chinese herbal medicine, and non-invasive cosmetic procedures. His diverse qualifications give him a rounded perspective on health and wellness, and enable him to render advice from multiple perspectives. He is the author of two health and wellness self-help books: 10 Things You Should Know About Your Body and Its Ability to Heal Itself, and Sensible Weight Loss. Dr. Mike is also the editor, head writer, and sole proprietor of the website Dr. Mike's Wellness Revolution, which he uses as a platform for disseminating and expounding upon his health and wellness practices and beliefs. The website is full of tips for healthy eating, and also contains an outline of what could be considered Dr. Mike’s crowning achievement in the realm of health and wellness: his weight loss program. Dr. Mike's weight loss program is a six-step regimen, designed to promote health and wellness through detoxification, behavior modification, and exercise. Dr. Mike claims that his program can help mitigate risk for cancer, diabetes, gallbladder disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, joint and muscle pains, respiratory problems, and psycho-emotional disorders-among other health and wellness issues. Above all, Dr. Mike’s regimens and his advice emphasize the power of natural healing. Dr. Mike is critical of pharmaceuticals, and tends to rely, in his practice, on the power of nutrition and natural, metabolic processes to promote health and wellness. He is a strong proponent of anti-oxidants [powerful cancer-fighting agents that occur naturally in many fruits and vegetables]. Dr. Mike’s background is in athletic medicine. He began his career in his native country, Belgium, where in 1993 he graduated from the University of Brussels with a Bachelor’s in Physical Education. In 1995, he obtained a Master’s in Physical Therapy from the same university. In 1996, during the Olympic Games in Atlanta, he was tasked with ensuring the health and wellness of the entire Belgian swimming team, in his capacity as assistant coach and therapist. In 1997, Dr. Mike moved to Florida, where he pursued several more professional qualifications, including physical therapy, acupuncture, and homeopathy. Currently, he divides his time between writing, consulting with individuals on health and wellness issues, and fulfilling speaking engagements in places as diverse as Toronto, Canada, and Daytona Beach. Dr. Mike Van Thielen is a trained health and wellness consultant, an author, and a public speaker. For more information visit DrMikeWellness.
