Michele: „Lots of innovative therapies I have created and new ideas and ways of practising. Also, i have done a lot of research on industrial hemp and the endocannabinoid system and rebalancing the brain and nervous system etc. One day want to grow it here, along with other medicinal plants, and use food as medicine. Acupuncture and tapping are powerful, espacially in the TCM system of understanding. Western sciences are really starting to catch up to TCM and the power of acupuncture. I think INAS is a good platform to share ideas, experiences and research. Now, I want to offer my favorite websites, which are describing the topics of my work:“
