"I came to Michael with muscles so knotted and sore I
was convinced my pain was chronic. After several sessions
I felt like a new woman. Not only do I feel balanced and strong;
Michael has also taught me stretching, strengthening and restorative
poses that work wonders on muscles abused by long runs and
climbs up Mt. Tam."

"I came to Michael with some old lingering ailments from
sports and too many hours at work. After my first session
I felt instant relief and this euphoric feeling of wellbeing
came across my body. He has such soft hands and gets in so
deep without me noticing or fighting. He has so much information
and knowledge to share if you are open minded. His skills
are incredible. You will not be disappointed."
Greg O'Loughlin

"I have known Michael for over 8 years and he never ceases
to amaze me in his ability to read bodies. A trainer myself,
I have used Michael for my own body maintenance and have sent
countless of my own clients to him over the years. In addition,
my husband and teenage son have been under Michael’s
care. His ability to immediately and masterfully diagnose
issues and set an action plan in place is remarkable and keeps
us all coming back for more!"

"I slouched for most of my life and couldn't hold a decent
posture for any length of time. After several sessions with
Michael my posture improved to an unimaginable extent. Everyone
who knows me has commented on it; at over 70 I walk more erectly
and am more comfortable in my body than ever. Michael is an
excellent diagnostician, a wonderful, hands-on technician,
an educator and a comprehensive body worker. Aside from that,
he is just an all-around good guy and a delight to work with."
Dr. David Geisinger, Ph.D.

"The skilled hands of Michael Feldman are one of the
main reasons I am still racing after a couple of hundred triathlons.
His ability to understand what is causing the pain or issue
is unlike anyone else. His deep knowledge of the athletes
body and how it functions under stress makes Michael’s
skills one of a kind. I have been seeing him regularly for
almost a decade and give him credit for keeping my body in
working order. His skills are beyond what you find in even
the most skilled massage therapists or physical therapy specialists.
I can’t imagine a racing season without having him on
my team."

"I was given one visit by my friend. Michael simply concentrated
on improving my life. There was no judgment or any other motive,
just my well being - a Buddhist sense of compassion. The treatment
and exercises were great."
Dennis Dorje

"Mike’s assignment for the past 8 years has been
to keep my body free of back pain and maintain my height at
6 feet. He has succeeded!"

"Michael Feldman’s work and instruction is amongst
the best. His intelligence, knowledge, embodiment, and warmth
make working with him a joy. I still use the things I learned
from him, many years later!"
Til Luchau, Lead Instructor

"Michael is by far one of the best body workers I've
ever known. In four months, Michael changed my posture so
that my feet now feel comfortable to walk on--especially barefoot!--something
I haven't felt for four years, since foot surgery. Amazingly,
he did this by working mainly on the rest of my body. He's
designed a daily exercise routine that is helping me to strengthen
weak areas of my body so that my alignment can get even better.
On top of that, he's a kind, gentle, intelligent person, whose
only goal has been to help me. And he's funny, too. What a
treat it's been to work with him!"
Nina Shilling
Psychotherapist
Berkeley, CA
"Taking Michael Feldman's Functional Anatomy workshop
series helped me to see my clients' bodies differently. The
value of this kind of training cannot be underestimated. The
lab portions of the workshops included many practical tools
& suggestions. I enjoyed Michael's informal style and
his way of adapting his curriculum to fit the needs of the
students."
Judy Simons
Pilates Instructor
Berkeley, CA
"Mike is awesome! Only therapist/body worker I have ever
had that went after the cause of my problem. When my back
hurt, he spent time on my abdomen or legs. I always leave
feeling much better than I did before I came in. Mike has
also helped me fine tune my workouts to better myself as a
baseball and football player. Not just weight lifting, but
different cardio, stretching and strengthening exercises.
I see Mike every time I come back to the Bay Area."
Zack Straus
College Baseball Player
University of Denver, CO
"I have a severe scoliosis in both my lumbar and thoracic
spine. When Michael and I started to work together I was in
pain all of the time. He worked toward keeping me out of pain
and teaching me to maintain good posture without increasing
the degree of my curvature. I have worked with Michael for
over six years have created a relationship where I feel at
ease because he understands my issues and limitations. After
our sessions I walk out feeling straighter and much more comfortable.
I feel his work has been a terrific help, and I am truly grateful
for where he has taken me."
Vicki Burstein
Teacher/Grandmother
San Francisco, CA
"Michael is a student, teacher and healer. I had the pleasure
of working with Michael over a number of years and am still
appreciating the gems he has shared with me. He always has a
thoughtful perspective to best understand the challenge and
provide practical suggestions.
His work on the table is tremendous and has provided me with
the care my body needs whether I know it or not. I am very
grateful for the work we have done together."
