Michael Schwab - Doctor of Public Health
Michael Puro Jacobs is a master.
His Somatic bodywork is a great education, subtle and effective;
you come to meet and know your own body in a new way. His
knowledge of human nature is deep and rich, he’s skillful
and cheerful. I’ve known him for many years, and I’ve seen
him help many people. I am delighted to recommend him.
Dancer - Rolfer - Psychologist ". . .My past includes 1) dancing in a modern dance company;
2) employed as a Rolfer; 3) presently employed as a psychologist;
4) presently I am a distance runner. I have a professional
as well as personal knowledge of the body. . . . I
have not experienced any other body work to be as efficient
and long lasting as this work with Michael. I believe the
reason for this is that not only does he do the treatment
but at the same time he is teaching one how to work with oneself.
This allows for the individual to continue the work on their
own rather than be dependent on the practitioner. . . . Not
only is this work appropriate for general well-being, it is
also beneficial for injuries, both chronic and acute.

A client with back pain
"I have three ruptured discs from an auto accident
I had in the sixties. My back has given me problems, chronically
for years. . . In one of my major spasms (very painful and
debilitating), I went to see Michael. After just two or
three sessions, my back improved greatly. And, we continued
the work so I could learn how to avoid spasms or
release them myself." -October, 2000 Sally
Yost Santa Fe, New Mexico  A young woman recovering from a stroke
"... You agreed to work with me and in the fifteen
months I’ve noticed a remarkable change in the way
I carry my body and how I’m able to relax the tone.
. . I can feel the difference in my body. I’ve learned
techniques to relax and strengthen. . . With the exercises
I’ve been doing, I feel my body operates smoothly
and I have more control. . .I’m truly thankful
for the results you have helped me to achieve." -July 1, 1999 Arlene
