He specializes in the management of complex cases, including post-operative care. Michael also has extensive teaching experience in the rehabilitation of MSK disorders and in mentoring interns and residents.
Starting his career as a member of a multidisciplinary spinal pain team in Fribourg in Switzerland, Michael was also a Team Chiropractor with HC Fribourg-Gottéron, a professional, Swiss ice hockey team, and engaged to lecture in Active Rehabilitation at Zurich University’s Faculty of Medicine. Michael currently balances his roles as expert examiner and reviewer of Federal Chiropractic Examinations, Team Chiropractor and Head of the Concussion Unit (HC Fribourg-Gottéron), Staff Physician with Clinique Générale, Supervising Clinician with CHUV (University Hospital in Lausanne), and Chiropractic Physician at his own private practice in Fribourg.
