In this transformative episode of The One Percent Doctor, host Adam Lamb sits down with Dr. Michael Jocson, a physical therapist and trainer with nearly 30 years of experience. Based in Claremont, Florida, Michael’s journey began in the traditional world of physical therapy, but over time, he evolved into what he now calls a "human whisperer" — someone who helps people uncover the root of their chronic symptoms by addressing not just the body, but the mind and spirit as well. His work is focused on seeing the whole person and helping them imagine — and realize — the fullest expression of their health potential.

Together, Adam and Michael explore the connection between physical pain and emotional trauma, the power of breath and stillness, and the spiritual awakening that can come from deep self-reflection. Michael shares his perspective on what true health means, his experience with psychedelics as a sacred tool for healing, and practical ways to create space in the body and mind for growth. This conversation challenges traditional models of healthcare and encourages listeners to turn inward for answers. It’s a compelling call to reclaim your power, find peace in the present, and expand your imagination of what’s truly possible.
