Energy Medicine Healer & Instructor

Founder of Vital Energy Medicine

I’m Brendan Thorson, founder of Vital Energy Medicine, a comprehensive mind-body-energy healing and training system that I’ve developed over more than 24 years of study, practice, and teaching. My work helps people rebuild their internal vitality through deep energetic grounding, nervous-system restoration, and the strengthening of key organ and gland systems—including the kidneys, adrenals, gut, heart, and reproductive centers.

My journey into this work began through personal experience. As a teenager, I struggled with chronic joint and tendon pain that conventional therapies couldn’t resolve. Years later, through dedicated training in energy medicine, qigong, tai chi, meditation, and massage therapy, I discovered how to activate and restore the body’s natural energy flow. That process not only transformed my own health—it revealed an entirely new understanding of how the body, mind, and spirit regenerate when their foundational energy systems are rebuilt.

Over the years, I’ve helped many people overcome chronic illness, fatigue, stress, and emotional exhaustion by restoring their internal energy foundation. My approach strengthens the body’s resilience, calms the mind, and supports emotional balance—helping people experience more clarity, confidence, and peace in daily life.

I hold a Master’s in Acupuncture and Traditional Oriental Medicine from the Pacific College of Health & Science (New York) and am a graduate of the Brenneke School of Massage. I’ve taught thousands of hours of energy-medicine classes, workshops, and teacher-training programs, and I continue to mentor students and practitioners who wish to deepen their healing abilities.

Today, I’m actively developing pilot research proposals and seeking collaborations with integrative-medicine researchers and clinicians to study how foundational energy restoration can measurably improve resilience, chronic-illness recovery, and emotional well-being. My goal is to demonstrate through rigorous research that energy-based vitality restoration can become a legitimate, evidence-supported complement to modern medicine—laying the foundation for a new era in whole-person health and human potential.

Through Vital Energy Medicine, my vision is to help train thousands of energy healers and teachers worldwide, bringing transformational energy medicine into the mainstream of health care and education. Ultimately, I believe this work can help humanity awaken to a new level of mastery over the body and mind—restoring vitality, purpose, and connection far beyond what is currently thought possible.
