Michele has been interested in Integrative Medicine for several years, dabbling here and there. She got serious about investigating a field suited to her around 1990 when her youngest son was born prematurely, with the accompanying health problems. After spending considerable time and money following conventional medicine practitioner’s advice, her son’s health was not improving. She decided to try a Chinese medicine practitioner. Following his advice for only a few weeks coupled with some home methods, improved her son’s health drastically and he has maintained optimal health since then. Today he is a picture of health.

Michele was again reintroduced to Alternative Medicine several years later when her own health suddenly failed. Again conventional medicine alone was unable to help her iatrogenic disease and she turned to alternative therapies. Six months later, she was still alive and better than ever. Her 15-year struggle with high cholesterol was over, as was her 20-year struggle with indigestion and heartburn. Using Natural Nutrition was the most significant therapy used in her case. It just made sense.

She completed studies with the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition CSNN and attained the professional designation as Registered Holistic Nutritionist (also called Holistic Nutritional Consultant) in 2000. She also attained recognition with the International Organization of Nutritional Consultants (IONC) until 2008.  At that time she furthered her career by attaining Doctorate of Natural Medicine. She was a founding member of the Saskatchewan Association of Doctors of Natural Medicine (SADNM). Her education in natural medicine continued for many years. She has successfully completed upgrading courses in Hypothyroidism and Sports Nutrition. She also holds practitioner status in Theta Healing, Quantum Touch, Dowsing and Thought Field Therapy.  She continued studies in Homeopathy, Homeotoxicology, Herbology all other areas of natural medicine until 2023.  Michele is now happily semi-retired. 

Through her semi-retirement, Michele continues to be involved with public awareness of natural medicine. She is one of the founders of SADNM and served on the board for 15 years. She also is a current member of the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition Alumni Association (CSNNAA).  Michele has co-authored her second book.  She is an Internationally Published Best Selling Author. The book ‘Rapid Change For Heart Centred Women” is available through Amazon. Please contact her if you wish to obtain her first best selling book “A Cookbook for Naturally Good Health.”
