Do you play it safe or grab life by the horns to live a more vibrant, fulfilling life? As a top swimmer in his country of origin, Belgium, Dr. Mike Van Thielen gained interest in optimizing health and athletic performance. Dr. Mike graduated from the University of Brussels in '93 as a Bachelor in Physical Education and in '95 as a Master in Physical Therapy. He served as the assistant coach and therapist for Belgian Olympic Swimmers in preparation for the Olympic Games in Atlanta ('96).
Dr. Mike moved to Florida in '97, and after managing several pain management clinics, he received his PhD. in Holistic Nutrition. He is a licensed Physical Therapist, a licensed Acupuncture Physician and a Doctor of Oriental Medicine, with Certifications in Homeopathy & Chinese Herbal Medicine.
