About Us
Our Mission
PRANA (the Hindi word for “life force”) is a multidisciplinary healthcare practice that focuses on natural healing and health maintenance for seekers of better health. Our mission is to empower ordinary people to become the shepherds of their own well-being, through education, insight, inspiration, and professional guidance.
Our Philosophy
We believe that the human organism, like every living thing, tends naturally toward health. We believe that the principle sources of ill health in our lives are the things we do to ourselves, and things — therefore — that we can stop doing to ourselves. And we believe that, when ill health or disease does occur, the most effective remedies, most of the time, are those provided by Nature.
Our Service Array
PRANA is a place of education, a place of commerce, and a place of healing:
- We offer a wide array of continuing classes, seminars, lectures, workshops, and discussion groups, not only at our Royal Oak facility, but in various other educational and business venues throughout southeastern Michigan, as well as on this website.
- Our extensive inventory of nutritional supplements and herbals, curatives, beauty aids, and educational books, magazines, and CDs help our health-seekers tailor their healing and health-maintenance programs specifically to their own individual needs (and individual tastes!).
- And when professional intervention is required, PRANA’s staff is practiced in a wide range of non-invasive, Nature-based healing and helping arts, including . . .

Colon hydrotherapy
