In 1984, Dr. Liers's wife, Joanne, became ill with severe environmental intolerance to many common substances and chemicals. At that time, he and his family found no solutions or treatments that could ease her condition. Dr. Liers refocused his life on health and healing, becoming his wife's doctor in the process. Since then he has studied with many eminent physicians and scientists in the field of alternative medicine. He has analyzed thousands of books, reports, and technical papers concerning physical, mental, and spiritual health. He has incorporated his knowledge into his family and professional activities. Dr. Liers continues to investigate and apply methods for optimizing human health. The strategies for healthy living he develops encompass many areas, including nutrition and diet, herbs, exercise, bodywork, environmental modification, mind-body techniques, and spirituality.
