By making dietary and lifestyle changes, the eczema went away.
After stumbling upon his own cure, Neil created a coaching program with the motivation of helping people reverse engineer a myriad of ailments they are going through.

Dr. Erin Kumpf, D.A.C.M.: Chinese Medicine & the 4th Trimester | WAM151
Well-Adjusted Mama
01/18/22 • 46 min
Dr. Erin Kumpf D.A.C.M., L.Ac, FABORM, is a nationally board certified and state licensed Acupuncturist and Herbalist in the states of New Jersey and New York. Erin specializes in Women’s menstruation disorders, hormonal imbalance and fertility. She is also a Certified Holden QiGong Teacher.
Erin graduated from the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in 2013 with a Masters in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine in 2015 and has continued on to study endocrinology and reproductive health. Erin is also a Fellow of ABORM (American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine.)
Erin grew up with a fascination for the human body, the mind-body connection and the connection between our environment and our health. After suffering from amenorrhea and irregular menstrual cycles that resulted in significant pain and erratic bleeding for over 10 years, Erin was reluctant to proceed with the aggressive treatment plans being recommended to her. After embarking on a holistic endeavor of weekly acupuncture treatments, herbs and diet adjustments, she quickly experienced, first-hand, the beauty, elegance and power of this medicine.
Her own experience was so profound and results so impressive that she felt compelled to follow her heart and achieved a Doctorate in Chinese Medicine in order to help as many women as she can who are also frustrated with stubborn health issues. She has since specialized in treating the root causes of menstrual irregularities, hormonal imbalances and fertility issues. Her mission: To bring relief and hope back to as many people as possible that have been told, “there is no hope." Erin believes in and respects that we all have a healing intelligence that is powerful but that many people have lost touch with this power. She works with each patient to help them reconnect to their own inner healing wisdom and to help people live their best lives.

Well-Adjusted Mama
12/07/21 • 51 min
Dr. Stephanie Libs is a pediatric and prenatal chiropractor in San Diego. After her own breastfeeding struggles along with so many families in her office struggling she quickly has become the “breastfeeding doc.” As a self proclaimed education addict and book nerd, she finally enrolled in a program to become an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. In 2021 she launched a course for chiropractors to learn more about taking care of breastfeeding moms and babies. The course called Infant Adjusting and Breastfeeding Assessment is a short, easy, affordable course full of easy-to-implement techniques that you can use right away to significantly improve the breastfeeding relationship with mother-baby dyads.
As a mom who struggled with breastfeeding herself, and seeing thousands of babies in her practice, she can tell you, this work is powerful. Whether you’re already a pediatric expert, or you want to be, you’ll love this course. Since launching Courses for Chiros, so many moms have reached out asking if they could take the course too. The Infant Adjusting and Breastfeeding Assessment course is just for chiros and chiro students, but this did inspire her to create a brand new course for moms with everything they need to know to breastfeed. The Course on Breastfeeding is like having a holistic lactation consultant in your pocket.
She loves chiropractic, and our philosophy even more; that our Innate Intelligence is the guiding force in our bodies to adapt and thrive. She’s been published in magazines, submitted case studies for peer review publication, hosts birth and postpartum workshops and also hosts continuing education seminars and chiro philosophy meetings, so ya know, chiropractic is kinda her jam. Whether you’re a chiro, a mom, or both, these courses are created with intention, honor, holistic care and a whole lotta love!

With over 600 hours of post graduate coursework and testing, Dr. Forgosh is distinguished as a certified Craniopath and an instructor through Sacro Occipital Research Society International. She is additionally certified as a Pediatric and Pregnancy Chiropractor (C.A.C.C.P.), having completed 200+ hours of post graduate training and testing through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. She is certified in Webster’s Technique, with 22 years of experience helping to optimize the mechanics and neurology of a woman’s pelvis during pregnancy for healthy fetal positioning.
Dr. Forgosh is a proud graduate of the Advanced Clinical Training Program for mastery in Nutrition Response Testing (SM), which utilizes whole food nutrition, and adds a powerful dimension for health and healing for those seeking exceptional health and vitality. She earned her B.A. from the University of Vermont in 1994 and graduated Cum Laude from Life Chiropractic College West in 1999.
A few fun highlights of her personal achievements include: 6 years of study in martial arts, culminating with her earning her first degree black belt. (She broke a concrete slab with her bare foot!) She completed two 26.2 mile marathons. (The first time, she was tricked into believing that it was “all mental”. The second time she blanked out on everything but the endorphins.) She lives now as a proud yogi, with a 25+ year daily practice. To the shock and disbelief of everyone who “knew her then”, her last doughnut was over 12 years ago. Turns out, cake as a meal replacement was a bad idea after all.
