I have always been drawn to alternative and holistic medicine. Even long before I opened Free Your Mind, Body and Soul Wellness, I believed deeply in the body’s ability to heal when it is supported gently, naturally, and without unnecessary pressure.
But in 2014, that interest became something much greater.
My son, Jansen, suffered a traumatic brain injury and was placed on life support. His prognosis was uncertain, but his strength was undeniable. As he fought, I began searching for every possible way to support his comfort, mobility, and long term well being.
That journey opened doors I never expected and it completely reshaped the way I viewed healing.
Exploring alternative approaches for Jansen led me into the world of myofascial release, nervous system regulation, natural therapies, and supportive modalities designed to ease the body rather than force it. Over the years, I’ve watched him respond in ways that created hope, progress, and a deep appreciation for gentle, hands on care.
His orthopedic doctor once shared that most non-ambulatory children undergo multiple invasive surgeries by age eight. Jansen is approaching twelve with zero . A testament to resilience, thoughtful care, and exploring options beyond the traditional path.
Jansen didn’t just influence my work, he deepened it.
He made my interest a passion.
He made my passion a purpose.
He is the heart behind Free Your Mind, Body and Soul Wellness.
He reminds me every day why I believe so strongly in individualized care, in slowing down, in listening to the body, and in offering alternatives that support mobility, comfort, and quality of life at any age.
My son taught me that there is always another path and I am honored to share what I’ve learned with others who are seeking relief, hope, or a different approach to wellness.
