Our Approach
What if healing didn't have to be overwhelming, out of reach, or leave you feeling more confused than when you started?
I know exactly how frustrating it feels when nothing makes sense with your health. I suffered with rheumatoid arthritis since age 10, taking strong medications for most of my life - until I discovered there was another way. And I realized that I don’t want my clients to feel the overwhelm and confusion that I did.
That's why we do things differently here. While most practices start with hundreds of dollars in testing and piles of supplements, we start with something more powerful: addressing the foundation of health itself - our day to day choices. It’s what changed my own life, and in turn, the lives of hundreds of others that have worked with us.
Think of a waterfall. If the water collecting at the bottom is polluted or unhealthy, traditional medicine works there trying to put bandaids on the problem.
We go upstream to the source.
When we address what's creating the problem upstream or at the top of the waterfall - our daily habits and lifestyle choices - everything downstream clears up and it all flows better. The body's incredible healing capacity takes over and creates health for us.
That's why we work exclusively through memberships and programs. This allows us to:
Really Know You: We spend the time to understand your unique needs, challenges, and goals, not just your symptoms.
Provide Ongoing Support: We provide consistent access to guidance, education, and accountability as you navigate your healing journey.
Create Lasting Change: We help you build sustainable habits gradually, at your own pace, so the transformation lasts well beyond your time with us.
Be Your Reliable Source: Instead of turning to Dr. Google or getting overwhelmed by conflicting information, you have a trusted team to turn to.
Real transformation takes time.
One-off appointments won't create the health transformation you deserve. Making meaningful changes - especially ones that stick - requires ongoing support, accountability, and someone who truly knows you and your story.
This is a safe place to heal.
You're not just a number or a collection of symptoms here. We see the whole person - your life, your challenges, your dreams.
Our philosophy in action
The Body's Innate Wisdom
We trust that your body knows how to heal itself when given the right conditions. Our job is to help create those conditions, then let the body take over and do what it’s then able to do.
Whole-Body Connection
We don't compartmentalize the body. We know that all the systems of the body are interconnected - our gut affects our mood, our sleep impacts our hormones, our stress influences our digestion, and so on. We help support the whole system.
Root Cause Focus
We're always asking, “what's the underlying cause creating these symptoms?’ We address that, so everything downstream heals. We’re not here to cover up symptoms but clear them up once and for all.
Empowerment
Our goal is to give you the tools and knowledge to maintain your health when you are no longer working with us. We will give you all the knowledge you need to maintain your health transformation for life.
There's Always Hope
No matter where you are in your health journey, there's always something that can be done. We've seen incredible transformations, and we believe in your body's ability to heal. It’s never too late and you are worth it!
Your Journey with Us
Every client's path is unique, but we typically guide clients through graduated phases of care:
Foundation First
We start with lifestyle - the most powerful medicine available. Our clients see significant improvement here (an average 65% reduction in symptoms in 3 months time). The Health Begins Here Program, lead by with one of our Board Certified Functional Health Coaches, helps align your lifestyle for healing.
Targeted Support
If needed, we can explore deeper with testing and supplements, but only after the foundation is solid. This makes everything more effective and less overwhelming. This is called the Deep Dive. In this stage you work with Dr. Emily or the nurse practitioner to take your healing to the next level.
Long-term Thriving
Whether you graduate to maintain your health independently or continue with us for ongoing support, you'll have the tools and knowledge to sustain your transformation. We want you to succeed and maintain your health
This Is Healthcare Done Differently
Gone are the days of rushed appointments where you leave feeling unheard or more confused than when you arrived.
Here, you have the time, support, and guidance to create real, lasting change. Your body has been trying to tell you something, and a different outcome requires a different approach.
We're here to help you listen, understand, and respond with exactly what you need to heal.
There's always hope. And you don't have to figure it out alone.
