For generations, my family has been practicing Natural Medicine; teaching us the young the power of Mother Earth, alongside the wonders of the human body, mind, and spirit. My interest in health began with my grandparents. My grandfather was a farmer, herbalist, and chiropractor. My grandmother was a mid-wife, herbalist, practiced acupressure and spiritual healing. Their knowledge combined was a potent remedy of wellbeing and always nurtured our family’s health.
