Dr. Berenstein is the chiropractor at Satori Urban Wellness
in Toronto, where he helps patients achieve a greater quality of life
through an integrative approach combining chiropractic, manual therapy,
fitness, and wellness services to reduce pain, rehabilitate from an
injury, and achieve optimal wellness.
Dr. Berenstein graduated from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College and holds an Honours Degree in Biological Sciences and Kinesiology from York University.
As a complement to his chiropractic training, Michael has a CAN-FIT Pro certified personal training background, is certified in Custom Orthotic Therapy, and is a Certified Laser Practitioner. Additionally, Michael continues to upgrade his skills and knowledge with continuing education courses. Recently, Michael incorporated aspects of CranioSacral Therapy into his manual therapy repertoire after studying CranioSacral Therapy through the Upledger Institute. Michael also studied Thompson Technique - a chiropractic technique that emphasizes treating the cause, rather than a symptom.
Dr. Berenstein is currently a licensed member of the Canadian Chiropractic Association (CCA), and Ontario Chiropractic Association (OCA).
Following graduation, Michael worked as an associate chiropractor where he received hands-on training in combining chiropractic health care with Low Level Laser Therapy. Additionally, he acquired a wealth of experience rehabilitating people of all ages via his work with motor-vehicle-accident patients and injured workplace individuals in rehabilitation clinic settings.
In 2005, Dr. Berenstein opened his own chiropractic practice working alongside family physicians in Toronto. Michael enjoys collaborating with each patient and their health team in order to provide the best treatment possible for their particular needs. In 2010, Michael moved his practice to Satori so he could collaborate with Satori's excellent team of holistic health care providers. Today, Dr. Berenstein continues to welcome new patients with various health goals.
Michael is an avid sports fan, staying current with
all the latest Toronto sports teams. Michael enjoys regular physical
activity, currently focusing on triathlon training and racing. When
he's not working, watching sports, or training for triathlons, Michael
enjoys traveling and spending time with his wife Andrea and son Nathan.
