About Michael
For more than thirty years, Michael Ellner and his clients have tested the limits of mindbody healing. His distinctive approach to using trance and suggestion has earned him countless honors as a healer, educator and humanitarian.
Among his many accomplishments, Ellner teaches Continuing Medical Education courses to frontline pain clinicians and is the lead author of a peer reviewed paper on Hypnosis in Disability (Pain) Settings. He has served on the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) Complimentary Therapies Working Group from 1989 through 1992.
Ellner has lectured about Mind Body healing around the world and was a presenter on Mindbody healing at a major AIDS forum sponsored by the National Institutes of Medicine. In 1998, The European Commission (Project 97-2031 report on treating AIDS) recommended that the European Union hire Ellner as University level instructor of mind body healing to help people with AIDS.
