Dr. Joe Dispenza is an American author, speaker, and chiropractor. He traces his work to a 1986 cycling accident that fractured several vertebrae; he declined the surgery he was offered and credits mental focus and visualization for his recovery.
Dispenza frames his teaching through neuroscience, epigenetics, and quantum-physics concepts, centered on meditation and mental rehearsal. Since 2010 he has run studies at his own multi-day retreats, working with outside scientists to measure the effects of meditation on the brain and body.
He is the author of several books, including the New York Times bestseller You Are the Placebo and the 2017 Wall Street Journal bestseller Becoming Supernatural. His team reports gathering more than 20,000 brain scans and over 10,000 heart-rate-variability readings at seven-day retreats held around the world.
His formal training is in chiropractic rather than medicine or neuroscience, and much of the brain research he cites is collected at his own workshops. Maybe presents his claims for you to weigh, not as settled science.
On Maybe since 2026.
