About Michelle Veneziano, DO, MIM (Doctor of Osteopathy and Masters in Intuition Medicine):
Dr. Michelle Veneziano is an osteopathic physician, adjunct clinical professor at Touro and Western universities, and research faculty at the California Institute for Human Science.
Her unique approach to osteopathic self care is rooted in Cranial Osteopathy, a hands-on, evidence-based therapeutic practice that sources both western & eastern philosophies to support the body’s ability to heal itself.

She shares practices and insights for awakening the doctor that resides within each of us, for connecting with who we really are and for living in alignment with nature.
In This Episode We're Talking About:
- The way you walk can do as much or more for spinal alignment than a chiro or osteopathic treatment
- That we are what we DO, not just what we eat
- That profound fitness and shapeliness can develop in each moment without you having to do much of anything but feel and notice
Quotes:
- “The way you walk can help you feel energetically aligned more than in any osteopathic treatment, believe it or not.” (01:10 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
- “We talk about this a lot in our conversation about noticing the surroundings and how energy impacts you and how you as a healer, if you’re not regulated in your energy and not aware of the beauty of learning this kind of regulation, it makes it harder to treat patients, both osteopathically, conventionally, in whatever arena you have.”(2:03 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
- “We’re all born as experts. There’s nothing advanced or esoteric at all about what I’m saying. It’s like settling back into a station on a dial where if you hit a frequency. It’s a breath – we live in a breath that’s synchronized with the planet.” (07:06 | Dr. Michelle Veneziano)
- All of existence is in this expanding and contracting cycle, and everything in nature happens through communication through spiral forms of waveforms. (7:21 | Dr. Michelle Veneziano)
- We’re all in so much distress and trauma that we naturally move into a hypervigilance fixation on what isn’t working so we can fix it. (12:28 | Dr. Michelle Veneziano)

About The Catalyst Host, Dr. Lara Salyer:
I worked as a family physician for 15 years until burnout changed the trajectory of my career. I realized I wanted to start a holistic functional medicine practice in my rural hometown and made it happen. In addition to practicing functional medicine, I now mentor practitioners who are looking to change their paths in healthcare by using what I refer to as the “Catalyst Roadmap”. I share each step of this framework with listeners so that they may apply it to their careers, relationships, personal goals, and projects.
