Dr. Mark Hyman wrote, “The power of community to create health is far greater than any physician, clinic, or hospital.” There have been several key players along the way who have helped me along my journey of health: Functional Medicine Doctors, Naturopaths, authors, and friends.
My healing journey began with learning proper nutrition. It continued to evolve with understanding proper movement, sleep, breathing, mindset, and stress relief. This path has changed my and my family’s life. Looking back, it is amazing to compare how good I feel now with how dire my circumstances felt then. Now I see how my own difficulties have allowed me to learn and grow to be able to offer help and hope for others.
For the last 20 years, I have worked with people frustrated with pain and movement. Pain is the most common reason people visit a doctor’s office. Doctors often prescribe medications to alleviate pain. Many times they do not work and often come with potential side effects.
