"I am honored to work with you to help you feel better.  It's fulfilling to see people's lives change after consistent treatment.  The medicine I learned from Dr. K and M Nakazono is the most dynamic and powerful system I've seen for truly excellent results.   When patients come in consistently and commit to the process of healing it is truly a great thing to see."  Lieber (formerly Yahe Solomon) is a fully licensed, accredited practitioner in the state of Montana.  His first teacher was Nakazono Sensei.  http://sflivingtreasures.org/index.php/treasures/2-treasures/79-nakazono-sensei-.html?showall=1    and  http://www.nakazono.aberaikido.org.uk/nakazono_sensei.htm  A.I. practiced aikido with Dr. M. Nakazono and his son, Dr. K. Nakazono. He also studied medicine with Drs. Nakazono and graduated from the Kototama Institute in 1984, receiving his DOM (Doctor of Oriental Medicine) that year.

Hands on experience is very important with acupuncture.  Along with the technical aspects and precision of point location, acupuncture and Oriental Medicine is about touch, intuition and knowledge through practice.  His patients often remark on his deeply empathetic manner and compassionate attitude.

 He likes to spend time with his family and friends, enjoy the outdoors, and feels very grateful to be part of our wonderful community in a unique setting.  A.I. runs, hikes, skis, and teaches aikido and meditation techniques to many groups including local firefighters.  He participates in many volunteer and outreach programs such as a program for aspiring medical students from rural areas (MEDSTART), Eagle Mount, THRIVE, Haven, Big Sky Youth Empowerment, Eagle Mount and many other of the great non profits and community programs here in Bozeman.
