ABOUT CORMENDI & DR. STRACKS

Cormendi [core–men-dee]

From the Latin cor, for heart; corpus, for body; and mens, for mind

Noun: The state of fully encompassing mind, body, and spirit; wholeness.


Here at Cormendi, we take a holistic approach to healing so that you can find the help you need and live the life you want. You’ll gain your freedom and peace of mind, and get back to doing the things you love whilst feeling known. Our team will get to know you and your story. Together, we will work to find the best solutions for your unique circumstances.

You Deserve Great Care


We believe in seeing each of our clients as a whole person, which means that our practitioners consider the heart and the mind as well as the body in determining the best way forward for healing. 

Our goal in all cases is to use medication only as a last resort. We have found success for patients using a holistic combination of dietary changes, supplements, vitamins, stress reduction, hormones, and psychology to help optimize the body’s natural tendency to heal.

WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY

  • “About a year ago, I was taking medication every day and really was unable to do any physical activity for the better part of the prior two years. I had spinal injections, scans, etc. I am pleased to tell you that on Halloween, I ran a half marathon for the first time in my life. This would not have been possible without going to your classes, so I am very grateful to you and to Dr. Sarno.”

  • “I met with you for the first time last week, and I'm in disbelief with how impactful and results oriented my consultation was with you. I have to say, I was a bit skeptical. I really didn't think that you would be able to give me a treatment plan that actually worked, considering I've been struggling with insomnia and anxiety for so long. Since our appointment, I've had an acupuncture session, ordered all the supplements you suggested, and I'm reading 10 Percent Happier. I've had two full nights of sleep in a row, which hasn't happened in months!”

  • “Thank you so much for everything! Before I came to you I had pretty much lost hope, but you gave that back to me. And even with my setbacks, I am obviously feeling much better than I did before... all thanks to you.”

  • “I’ve been working with Michelle over Zoom, which has been more helpful than I can say. I also gained a lot from Dr. Stracks’s recent letter about “Are You Stuck…..” The idea of listening to my pain was new to me. Thank you all for all that you do!”

  • “I wanted to let you know that my digestive system is in really great shape for the first time in the past 6 years! I'm really glad you were able to do the right testing and order the treatment that finally helped me. Thanks so much!”

  • “Your informed and holistic approach has been a huge help through all of this and I hope you realize the positive impact you bring to your patient's lives.”

  • “I have been participating in a very physical activity for over a month now and have absolutely no back pain. I had always wanted to learn how to box but kept putting it off because of my back pain but was "pushed" into signing up, late in October. My back hasn't felt this good in years since I started training and the type of workout I am doing with the instructor is full contact, nothing is cut out or altered because of my back and leg pain. Another reinforcement of your TMS treatment methods.”

  • “I just wanted to send a quick message to Dr. Stracks. After our appointment today, I feel 100% better. It’s amazing how just that 30-minute session created a safe space for me and completely calmed my nervous system. I feel present and just so much calmer. If you could, please extend my gratitude to him. I think that was the “medicine” I needed to get over this hurdle.”

  • “Overall I am so much better than I was, but the hard part is that it's not a miracle at all, it's more like there are two ways you can go down a road, forward or back, and becoming conscious of your position doesn't put you miles ahead, it just gives you the chance to start going the right way.”

  • “I wanted to let you all know how refreshingly delightful and helpful you are. It's incredibly rare to see in a medical practice and I’m grateful to all of you for making it so easy to interact with you.”

  • “I am so thankful to have found you. I have never before met a doctor who provides the level of service you provide and acres so much.”

  • I was astounded at the customer service that I was given when I scheduled my appointment. You all are what every medical practice in this country should strive to be.
