A note from Dr. Nancy Owens:
I am thankful for the advancements in medical science. We are saving lives from accidents, strokes, heart attacks, premature births, and much more.
Medicines can save lives, but we need to keep in mind that they also have side effects.
If you are struggling with fatigue, lack of energy, mood fluctuations, aches and pains, headaches, rashes, and so many other chronic issues, we can help figure out what you are lacking to help your body repair the way it was designed to.
We can also check your current supplements to make sure they are benefiting you and not harming, as well as help you find the right supplements for your liver and kidneys so they don't get overloaded by medicines (chemical stressors) that you are already taking.
We also utilize lab testing and hair mineral analysis to assess the body's current state.
Our bodies are not lacking chemicals but whole food nutrients to function right.
We only get one body in this life and we have to live in it, so let's learn how to take care of it.
Let us help you on your journey to better health.

Snack formula that actually keeps you full: protein + fiber + healthy fat. Think apple slices with peanut butter, hummus with veggies, or Greek yogurt with berries instead of random office snacks that leave you hungry an hour later.

Healthy eating on a budget is all about basics. Build your cart around rice or quinoa, fresh veggies, beans, eggs, and seasonal produce. Then season it up, so your meals feel cozy instead of “diet.”

Feeling overwhelmed? Try a mini reset: inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4, exhale for 6, repeat a few times. Pair it with a quick walk or stretch break to help your nervous system chill.
