Michelle Kronenberg, C-IAYT, E-RYT 500, YACEP, MA
is a Certified Yoga Therapist, senior teacher, and somatic practitioner with over 30 years of experience guiding people back into a relationship with their bodies.

Her work is both professional and deeply personal.

After her own recovery from a brain aneurysm, Michelle’s understanding of healing fundamentally changed—from something to achieve or fix, to something to listen for. She knows what it’s like to not feel at home in your body—and what it takes to gently rebuild that trust.

Her approach integrates restorative yoga, Somatic Experiencing®, breathwork, iRest® Yoga Nidra, and mindfulness-based practices (trained through UCLA’s Mindful Awareness Research Center), alongside hands-on therapeutic techniques including shiatsu and reflexology. She holds a Master’s degree in Spiritual Psychology and brings a uniquely integrative, body-based perspective to her work.

Michelle specializes in supporting individuals navigating chronic pain, stress-related conditions, and nervous system dysregulation. At the California Pain Medicine Center, she has worked with patients experiencing complex conditions, including chronic regional pain syndrome, offering a compassionate and clinically informed approach to healing.

What distinguishes Michelle’s work is not only her training, but how she applies it.

Her sessions are not about pushing, fixing, or overriding the body. They are about creating the conditions for safety, awareness, and reconnection—where patterns can begin to shift organically, and the nervous system can reorganize toward greater balance.

Clients often describe a growing sense of ease, clarity, and resilience—along with a deeper capacity to meet life as it is.

Michelle’s work is grounded in a simple but powerful understanding:
When the body feels safe, healing begins.
