Melanie Phillips, CNP
She branched out to functional medicine around 10 years ago to pursue health for herself and her family.
She has always dreamed of bringing this healing journey to others in the form of a health and wellness center.
She has been married to her high school sweetheart for 40 years and has 4 wonderful grown children and 6...almost 7, grandchildren.
She loves to garden, raise farm animals, bake and cook healthy delicious meals- but most of all,
to teach the average person that they can do it too!
She received the daisy award for nurses in 2016 given to those giving extraordinary and compassionate care.
Her goal in this health adventure is to combine the depth of traditional medicine with a holistic functional method of personalized treatment, hunting for the root cause of disease and getting rid of it. She loves to get to know people at a deep level and empower them to take control of their health. She uses tools that incorporate evidence-based practice and research, cutting edge functional testing and labs as well as traditional, and visits that are relaxed but purposeful! She will also have resources for those who just want to learn to live healthy and feel better learning from their living room.
