Hi, I’m Alison!
As a biomechanical engineer turned health practitioner, I’ve always been fascinated by how the body works. When I went through my own health journey, I learned that true healing comes from focusing on the foundations, not just managing symptoms.
My Mission
I help conscious professionals like you restore your energy, digestion, and resilience, so you can pursue your ambitions with clarity and presence. Together, we uncover the root causes of imbalance and create a personalized strategy that helps your body restore balance from the inside out.
My Philosophy
My approach combines the precision of functional testing with the depth of somatic work to help you not only feel better but understand your body on a deeper level, so you can sustain your energy and clarity long-term.
“Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are.”
— Rachel Naomi Remen
My Journey
I spent most of my twenties searching for answers to an ever-growing list of symptoms – chronic acid reflux, bloating, fatigue, food sensitivities, brain fog, acne, painful periods, and more. Doctor’s visits and routine labs ended the same way: “Everything looks normal.” But I didn’t feel normal.
My engineer brain knew there had to be more to the picture, so I set out to solve the puzzle myself. I researched endlessly, experimented with supplements, detoxes, and trendy diets – trying to heal, but often spinning my wheels.
Eventually, my research led me somewhere I didn’t expect: to the connection between stress, trauma, and the body. I realized that my system was stuck in survival mode and the physical symptoms were just surface-level signals of something deeper.
In hindsight, those physical challenges were an invitation to slow down and reexamine my life. They became a doorway to deeper self-awareness, teaching me that healing is both a science and a process of remembering how to listen to the body.
The real transformation began when I finally slowed down from corporate life, stopped chasing symptoms, and started rebuilding the foundations – supporting my nervous system, restoring digestion, and nourishing my body consistently.
This journey became the foundation of my work and my motivation to help others reclaim their health. Today, I combine foundational nutrition, functional lab testing, and somatic work to help clients recognize the patterns driving their symptoms and interpret their body’s signals with clarity. Together, we create a personalized strategy to restore balance in a sustainable way and with a renewed sense of trust in their body.
If you’re walking a similar path, know that you’re not alone and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. You deserve clarity. You deserve support. You deserve to feel good in your body and have the energy to live a vibrant life.
My Education
As a lifelong learner, I’m fascinated with understanding how things work, especially the human body. I was formally educated as an engineer and now use my critical thinking skills and endless curiosity to understand your unique health challenges and help you find your path towards healing.
