About Dr Michael Lonardo

I am the proud father of two wonderful girls and two wonderful boys. My passion for helping others live healthier, more fulfilling lives has led me to become triple board-certified as a Doctor of Natural Medicine, Doctor of Holistic Medicine, and Hypnotherapist, as well as a Doctor of Traditional Naturopathy, Certified Cryo-Sculpting Therapist, and Certified Eros, DaVinci & Poise Specialist and Trainer.

I specialize in Alternative Medicine Psychiatry, Sports Medicine, Sexual Health and Dysfunction (including infertility for both men and women), autoimmune conditions (including thyroid disorders), and healthy weight loss. My approach draws from a variety of modalities, including Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbology, homeopathy, and essential oil therapy — all aimed at supporting the body’s natural ability to heal and restore balance.

My commitment to this work began when someone close to me was placed on medication after medication, with each prescription treating only symptoms and often causing additional side effects. I witnessed firsthand how conventional approaches sometimes overlook the root cause of illness. This experience solidified my belief in the body’s God-designed ability to heal when given the right nourishment, support, and removal of toxins.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping men, women, and children improve their physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health. I truly love walking alongside those seeking greater wellness, and I get energized seeing life-changing results — more vitality, more joy, and freedom from long-standing health challenges.
