Dr. Bernadette Kohn, DO - Osteopathic Physician
Osteopathic Physician is a licensed-medical physician whose approach differs from physicians who received an M.D. in that osteopathic physicians use palpation and manipulation to aid in their diagnostic treatment and prevention techniques.  One of only a few doctors in the U.S. who is Board Certified in Neuromuscular Medicine, Dr. Kohn has been practicing for over 13 years and is an adjunct professor at the Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine.

Walter Tollick – Soft Tissue Specialist
Walter received his certification from the Chicago School of Massage Therapy and has provided soft tissue massages for clients for 11 years.  Soft tissue injuries are some of the most chronically painful and difficult to treat because it is very difficult to see what is going on under the skin with the soft connective tissues, fascia, joints, muscles and tendons.  Soft tissue therapy employs innovative ways to manipulate the soft tissue to speed natural healing and relieve the mysterious pain that often accompanies soft tissue injuries.

Dr. Frank Yurasek – PH. D. Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs
Dr. Yurasek received an MS and a PH.D. in Oriental Medicine from the Midwest College of Oriental Medicine.
