Along the way, she married and had 3 sons. Most, if not all, functional or integrative practitioners have a story as to how they became interested in the field. Nicole’s starts with her mother being diagnosed with a neurodegenerative disease when she was 17, having serious injuries herself in her early 20s, and then her children having food allergies. All along she was oriented toward health even if she didn’t know it. Her family ate meals at home and was involved in ice skating, track, and field sports. Nicole has always been interested in endurance sports and what the body is capable of. She looks for new ways to improve health and body function, with a focus on matching health span with life span. Nicole studied with The Institute of Functional Medicine and completed their certification path. She enjoys finding the basis of what is causing patients to not feel their best and working with them to identify ways to improve and correct these underlying issues. She believes it takes two to make this journey, 1. A motivated patient and 2. An engaged clinician.
