Hometown Wellness Shop

09/04/2025

It’s with a very heavy heart, and also a very full one—that I’m sharing the news that I’ll be closing the doors to our physical Hometown Wellness Shop.

This past year has been one of beautiful growth and meaningful connection but now, our family is walking through something we never expected: our daughter’s leukemia. As we enter this long and tender season of treatment, my full attention must turn to caring for her and walking this road as a family.

While the storefront is closing, my passion for integrative wellness remains unchanged. ✨ We will continue to offer virtual care, personalized protocols, and support to those we’ve had the privilege of working with. This isn’t the end of Hometown—it’s simply a new chapter.✨

Inventory is up to 30% off as we begin the process of closing. Because of our daughter’s demanding schedule, we aren’t able to offer regular shop hours right now. Instead, we’ll send out text alerts on days we’re able to open the doors, so you can stop by and grab your favorites before they’re gone. To sign up for these alerts please text “HOMETOWN” to 84576

Thank you—from the bottom of my heart—for showing up this year. For supporting this dream, for cheering it on, and for reminding me what community really means. If you’d like to continue working together virtually or simply stay connected, please feel free to reach out.

This page will still remain active (though slow for the next couple of months) as Hometown Wellness will still be serving our community!

With gratitude,
Bethany & Chad

Hi friends — we wanted to share that our shop will be temporarily closed for a few days and possibly weeks as our family navigates an unexpected health emergency with our daughter.

While our storefront will be closed, online orders can still be placed, and deliveries made on Wednesdays.

We deeply appreciate your understanding, prayers, and support during this time. Your kindness means more than we can express.

For our Integrative Clients, we will be working on a virtual schedule for the next couple of weeks and will be reaching out to schedule those appointments with each of you.

Thank you all for your understanding during this time and we just ask for your prayers as we navigate this journey ahead.

Our sweet six-year-old daughter Oakley was just diagnosed wit… Chad and Bethany Avalos needs your support for Help Oakley Fight Leukemia with the Strength of Her Name

Why I Started Hometown Wellness for Our Community

For years, I chased answers—knowing something wasn’t right in my body. After being told “everything looks normal” over and over again, I started to believe maybe what I was feeling was normal. However, when things escalated I sought help again, only to hear phrases like:

“Sometimes female health just sucks.”
“If you’re not going to take birth control, I can’t help you.”

I felt the same disappointment I had felt so many times before.

After being dismissed by four doctors, I did the work and poured everything into researching exactly what I needed to ask and how to advocate for myself. When I made one final attempt with a new provider, I walked in knowledgeable and prepared. Finally—I was heard. My surgery was scheduled within weeks for two conditions I had silently lived with for years: endometriosis and adenomyosis.

That’s where my passion for wellness took root. I enrolled in school to become a certified Integrative Health Practitioner. I knew it was the right next step—not just for my self, or for my family’s health, but for the countless women in my community walking the same road I had.

I’m honored to support women who feel like they’ve run out of options—who are exhausted, stretched thin, and ready for better answers.

I started Hometown Wellness to create the kind of care I wished I had sooner:
A space where root cause matters, wellness feels possible again, and you’re seen as a whole person—not a time slot on the calendar.
Most importantly, a place where questions about your own health are welcomed, not shamed.

The care I offer is complementary to the traditional medical system. I don’t replace your doctor—but I help fill in the gaps and do the investigative work you may feel is missing, so you can confidently advocate for your health.

That’s why I opened the doors to Hometown Wellness:
To offer what I once needed.
To serve those who feel overlooked.
And to bring real, personalized care back to our community.

I offer a free 1-hour Deep Dive Consultation to walk through your health history, goals, and concerns.

“May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right.”
—Peter Marshall

Today we remember that freedom is more than a feeling- it’s a responsibility, a gift, and a call to something greater than ourselves.

We honor the quiet strength of those who came before us… the ones who stood with conviction, sacrificed with courage, and believed that doing what’s right matters.

As the flag waves and fireworks light the sky this weekend, may we each pause to reflect on the kind of legacy we want to leave behind.

Let’s be a people marked by character and the courage to do what’s right.

Wishing you a safe and beautiful 4th of July 🇺🇸

Why We Love MCT Oil, and why your brain might too!

Looking for a clean boost of energy without the caffeine jitters or sugar crash?

We’re loving this Wildly Organic MCT Oil- a pure, unflavored oil made from organic coconuts that supports mental clarity, metabolism, and gut health.

Here’s why it’s a staple in our wellness shop:

🧠 Brain Fuel – MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) are quickly converted into ketones, giving your brain an instant energy source
🔥 Metabolism Support – May help support fat burning and balanced blood sugar
👌Gut-Friendly – No dairy, no additives—just clean energy that’s easy to digest
☕️Flavorless – Perfect in coffee, smoothies, salad dressings, or even just by the spoon!

We chose Wildly Organic because they do it right: sustainably sourced, 100% coconut-derived, and nothing artificial.

Available at Hometown Wellness Shop!
