**Services**

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is system of complementary medicine that involves pricking the skin or tissues with needles, used to alleviate pain and to treat various physical, mental, and emotional conditions. Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a complementary medicine based on the diagnosis and manipulative treatment of misalignments of the joints, especially those of the spinal column, which are held to cause other disorders by affecting the nerves, muscles, and organs. Customized Nutritional Coaching

As unique individuals, there is no such thing as a "one nutrition plan fits all". Learning the basics of nutrition and how your body works enables you to work out the exact right way YOU need to eat to achieve your health goals. Nutrition Response Testing℠

Nutrition Response TestingSM is a tool that helps us determine the underlying causes of ill or non-optimum health. And with this tool, we can determine the exact right supplements and doses your body needs to heal and repair. The body has an amazing ability to heal and repair itself if you give it what it needs to do its job. Pregnancy Care

We believe as mothers, our greatest gift is to give our children the best health right from the start. Beginning early on in pregnancy, parents have to make decisions that will affect their child forever. Our purpose is to support you on this journey, and to provide education and a wealth of resources including: Whole Food prenatal supplement programs, Acupuncture, Certified Webster Technique physicians (for the alleviation of back and joint pain due to pregnancy, and for optimal fetal positioning), and Certified Prenatal massage therapists. Massage Therapy

Massage therapy is manual manipulation of soft body tissues (muscle, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments) to enhance a person's health and well-being. There are dozens of types of massage therapymethods (also called modalities). If you would like to schedule a consultation to find out how our services can help you

Swap out veggies for your traditional crust with this roasted vegetable pizza recipe.

Ingredients for the Crust

2 zucchinis, sliced into half-moons

16 oz. mushrooms, sliced into large chunks

2 bell peppers, halved and sliced into strips

3 small crowns broccoli, sliced into large florets

Olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste



Ingredients for the Parmesan Mixture

1 cup parmesan cheese, grated

½ cup almond flour

3 large cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste



Ingredients for Assembly

1 cup marinara sauce

10 cherry tomatoes

1 small red onion, sliced

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Olive oil

Garnish: Chopped fresh basil + chili pepper flakes



Instructions for the Pizza Base

1. Preheat oven to 400° F.

2. Lightly cover a large-rimmed baking sheet with olive oil and add the veggies to the sheet. It doesn’t matter if they are overlapping a little.

3. Drizzle generously with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 20 minutes.



Instructions for Assembly

1. Whisk the ingredients for the parmesan mixture in a medium bowl.

2. After 20 minutes, remove veggies from the oven, and toss to mix. If there is a lot of liquid in the pan, use some paper towels to absorb most of it. On the pan, gently push the veggies together to form an even single-layer rectangle.

3. Drizzle the veggies with marinara sauce, then sprinkle with the parmesan mixture.

4. Top with cherry tomatoes, onion, and mozzarella. Drizzle with olive oil and pop back into the oven for 18-20 more minutes.

5. Top with a garnish of chopped fresh basil and chili pepper flakes.

6. Enjoy!

Detox & Discover: Are Toxins Holding You Back? (Free Workshop)

Feeling overwhelmed by detox information? You’re not alone.
With so many detoxes, cleanses, and protocols out there, it’s hard to know what’s helpful, what’s harmful, and what’s right for you.
Join us for a free, casual, and informative evening at the Natural Health Improvement Center, where we’ll break down detox in a clear, practical, and supportive way — without overwhelm.

Drawing on 20 years of experience in functional nutrition, Dr. Stacy Phelps and our team will share:

Why detox looks different for each person

How doing the wrong detox can actually make symptoms worse

When liver support or parasite protocols are appropriate

How to approach detox safely, gently, and effectively

This is an open, educational discussion — not a sales event — with plenty of time for questions.

🌿 WHAT TO EXPECT
✔ Short, easy-to-follow talks
✔ Toxicity questionnaire & parasite assessment for attendees
✔ Demo of Vibrant Blue essential oils & handcrafted detox teas
✔ Healthy snacks & beverages
✔ Gift basket giveaway
✔ A relaxed, welcoming environment
