Although we are trained in the traditional medical model of cardiovascular care and therefore understand the complexities of cardiovascular medicine, we are a not a cardiology practice.   Instead, we are a wellness practice utilizing the principles of integrative, functional and lifestyle medicine to give you education, empowerment and inspiration to assist you in redefining your cardiovascular health.   We do not diagnose, treat or cure cardiovascular disease. 

We believe that Health is created. It requires active participation. It comes from within, is learned, and is directed by how we live our lives.

We believe that integrative, functional and lifestyle medicine MUST be an integral part of your health care. It does not replace traditional medical care, instead it enhances it.

We believe that personalized lifestyle interventions that focus on mind, body and spirit are the key to true transformation.

Lastly, we believe that optimal cardiovascular health is the goal; not just the absence of symptoms or disease.

If these beliefs resonate with you, then you are in the right place! Welcome!

We are strictly an online wellness practice. We offer a variety of cardiovascular wellness services and programs to meet your personal cardiovascular goals.  

We offer a personalized approach to cardiovascular wellness using the best evidence-based integrative, functional and lifestyle medicine practices.

We use a HIPPA compliant practice management system to protect your health care information and data.

Please note that our methods to work with you may include Telehealth visits, online group coaching with Zoom and online community events.

We work with motivated people who are willing to be active participants on their journey to cardiometabolic wellness.

We work with people who currently have cardiovascular disease, those who have cardiovascular risk factors such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, family history of heart disease; and those who are trying to prevent cardiovascular disease. All are welcome!

We do strongly encourage that you are actively in care with a Cardiologist or Primary Health Care Provider.

• Health is created. It requires active participation. Health comes from how we live our lives. Getting healthy and staying healthy is a skill set that can be learned and practiced daily. Success requires daily commitment to a wellness practice.
• An integrative and functional approach to health seeks to understand the person who has the dis-ease, not disease the person has. You are truly unique! This is true patient-centered health care. 
• Having a diagnosis does NOT explain how you got the disease. Not everyone who has the same disease will have the same root causes nor the same integrative solutions.
• Our role is NOT to fix anyone. You do not require fixing; you are beautifully and wonderfully made! Our role is to educate, empower and inspire you on your journey to wellness and to help your body find balance, again.
• The starting point on any journey towards wellness begins with the foundations of health. What you eat, think, do and believe are as critical to health as prescription medication.  There can be no true healing without nourishing the mind, body and spirit.
• Cardiovascular health must be viewed in the context of a whole person approach to wellness. The body is series of interconnected systems which all play role in both disease and wellness. When you understand the root causes of your cardiovascular disease and how to correct them, you redefine your cardiovascular health and wellness. You change your course!
• Integrative and functional wellness focuses on the health of the mind, body and spirit.  Personalized lifestyle interventions are key to true transformation.  Optimal health is the goal, not just the absence of symptoms or disease.
