Dr. M. Stuart Tessler was born and raised in Buffalo, NY. He received his BS degree in Health Science from the State University of New York at Buffalo in 1975. He went on to receive a second BS degree in Visual Science and his doctorate in 1979 from Pennsylvania College of Optometry.

After graduation Dr. Tessler moved to Denver, Colorado and built a thriving practice. In 1990 he was introduced to a little-known optometric light therapy called Syntonics. For the next seven years, Dr. Tessler explored the use of light as a tool for the treatment of various vision and eye-related problems.

During those years it became apparent that his patients were often experiencing more than just changes in their vision. Changes seemed to be occurring at much deeper levels. People were reporting feeling more relaxed, less stressed and functioning better. They were more open and more receptive and seeing their lives with a new, broader perspective. It was clear that he was tapping into something that was changing the quality of life of those he treated.

By 1997, Dr. Tessler had sold his optometric practice to devote himself
to researching and refining this exciting new work. From those efforts,
Fight or FLIGHT THERAPY™ was born.
