After my wake-up call, I learned about Functional Medicine, and I was hooked. I started digging deeper into the role of nutrition and lifestyle on the body’s overall wellness, and I knew there was no turning back. Personally or professionally. I signed up for webinars whenever I could attend weekend retreats with my favorite leaders in the field. And when the time was right, I officially enrolled in school at Functional Nutrition Alliance (FxNA) and continued my education through many other certification and instructional programs. Please contact me if you would like to see my full resume.
Today, three decades after my diagnosis, I am still dedicated to learning about the human body and how to treat it with a healthy diet and lifestyle to improve health outcomes. The human body fascinates me. I launched Ali Anderson Wellness, LLC to help others like you who are looking for ways to improve their health. My clients are interested in identifying the hidden stressors behind their symptoms and committed to making lasting lifestyle changes. If you are experiencing a new symptom or have recently been diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder, I would love to help you discover changes you can make to improve your health.
As a Functional Wellness Practitioner, I help you take a step back, dig deep, and look for the hidden stressors that are causing your symptoms. We work together to discover and maintain nutrition and lifestyle changes that improve how you feel every single day. Like so many of you, I am a mom, a wife, a sister, a daughter, and a friend. In the end, we all want to be healthy, feel well, and live long and well-nourished lives.
Warm wellness wishes,
Ali
