He is a Certified Metabolic Physician and interned at Kelly Metabolic Cancer Clinic. He has trained extensively in chiropractic, naturopathy, osteopathy, homeopathy, and clinical kinesiology.

Pia Romano, Phd, CMT
Massage therapist Extraordinaire
About Pia:
I have been involved in the alternative health and healing profession for over 20 years. I began by studying Therapeutic Massage at a world-renowned Health Center in western MA. My bodywork education progressed by learning Craniosacral Therapy and Visceral Manipulation through the Upledger Institute while developing a private practice.
My passion for learning about healing expanded to include Energy Healing and I received a Ph.D. in Energy Medicine through The Victoria Merkle Center of Energy Medicine (San Diego, CA). My interests expanded further to include lymph drainage therapy culminating in Certifications in Lymph Drainage Therapy at the Vodder School and at The International Lymphedema Training Institute.
