Hi there…
My name is Krystina and I am a Christian Herbalist, Aromatherapist and a Certified Naturopathic Practitioner.
I love helping teach women about the best herbs and natural remedies they can use for acute and chronic health conditions as well as how to use them correctly.
I also try to empower women to gain knowledge to care for themselves naturally and teach them how to find and make their own medicines.
We focus on making important lifestyle decisions including nutrition and herbs.
Once upon a time…
I was a nurse when I was pregnant with my first son back in 2013. Then the natural world of medicine got exposed to me! In nursing school, I was not the one to get lectures or talks about alternative or holistic medicine. The medical training back then was…this is the issue and these are the drugs that help.
So here I am with a nursing job and a new baby and he gets eczema. My husband said he had eczema and he was given cortisone cream and then developed an immunity to it where it didn’t work anymore. So of course the dose went up, the prescription got switched.
My eyes began to open.
Then I started diving deep into natural alternatives. It made sense to me that children had illnesses and rashes and then just passed, I started developing a hesitancy to putting OTC drugs or prescriptions into my childs life.
The midwives in NY that helped me with my 3rd birth really opened things up for me in terms of herbal remedies and homeopathy which led me to becoming a childbirth educator and learning from Dr. Aviva Romm about herbal remedies for women.
My passion about learning holistic health and joy in serving my community with the resources I’ve learned has grown so much since those days working as a nurse.
While working within a hospital setting enabled me to truly be there for people at the most critical days of their lives, I always felt that helping people to STAY OUT of the hospitals was the route for me.
I love empowering mothers to start caring for themselves and their families in a natural way.
I teach them about how to make their own remedies and create holistic wellness plans which includes diet, exercise lifestyle, herbs and oils for their health issues.
