My name is Michelle Russell, a private Holistic Health and Healing Touch Practitioner located in Duluth, MN.

My personal journey through a series of health challenges with no answers from conventional medicine led me to explore the world of integrative and alternative health care options. The answers and healing that I discovered as a result of my exploration, research, and most importantly application made a profound change in my health and well-being.

My personal life-changing experience inspired me to begin a career and a life dedicated to helping others live more healthfully.

I received my training and certification as a Holistic Health Practitioner from the Global College of Natural Medicine and the American Association of Drugless Practitioners. In addition, I have completed the Healing Touch certification program through Healing Beyond Borders. This program is endorsed by the American Holistic Nurses’ Association. My EFT practitioner clinical certification is through EFT Universe. I am committed to my professional development with ongoing education and certification training.

I look forward to serving those on a quest for wellness by supporting their health care goals with holistic and integrative therapies.
