  <description>Kathy interviews Dr. Michael Smith of Natura Health and Wellness about the effects of trauma on the body and how we can mitigate the symptoms.
Dr. Smith received his medical training from the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon. Before that, he completed a master’s degree in New York City where his research focused on epigenetics and neuroscience. Dr. Smith has previously filled roles in the biotechnology and medical devices sector and various community organizations. 
Dr. Smith provides comprehensive Naturopathic care for individuals of all ages, focusing on neurological, mental health, gastrointestinal, hormone, and respiratory conditions. He is passionate about supporting the health and wellness of patients across the lifespan and throughout generations. 
He believes that, when possible, healing is best achieved on the family level as family members can support each other in their healing journeys. When possible, he loves incorporating genealogy and family health history into his patient care, providing additional insights into individual and family health.
