Discover The Root CAUSE of Your Symptoms
We provide advanced testing and personalized nutrition and supplement plans that empower you to reclaim your health naturally with the power of Functional Medicine.
What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is an approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the Root CAUSE of illness rather than just masking symptoms.
It emphasizes a holistic understanding of the body's systems and how they interact, often incorporating aspects of nutrition, lifestyle, genetics, and environmental factors into care plans.
At Integrative Wellness, we believe that true wellness goes beyond simply managing symptoms—it involves understanding the unique factors contributing to your health challenges and addressing them at their source.

Ready to have more energy and release excess weight?
From Our Clients
I used to struggle with brain fog, no energy, never gaining weight no matter how much I ate, and always got sick or had bad allergies. Now I finally have so much physical and mental energy to accomplish all the things I want. I am able to be more emotionally centered and present because I'm not so exhausted.
I like how she's organized, professional, and doesn't give you vague advice. She actually gives you data-backed, tangible advice with worksheets and works with you to make sure you actually feel better.
Kris R.
Canada
For the past several years my stomach had been feeling bloated and irritable… I had just got used to it. It wasn’t until I started to work with Ciaara that I realized that what I am feeling isn’t normal.
Since working with Ciaara my gut bloat is completely gone and my irritable bowel symptoms are a thing of the past. And an unexpected benefit was that by getting my gut right, I’ve also lost a total of 25 lbs. If you're considering getting your health right, and feeling amazing, then I’d strongly recommend working with Ciaara. You won’t regret it!

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! Please send us your existing labs so we can include these in our initial assessment.
Yes, all consultations are done virtually via Zoom. Any tests that need to be completed will be mailed to you to complete at home. For blood tests, you will receive instructions to have blood drawn by a phlebotomist in your local area.
Over-the-counter supplements are not quality controlled or tested. Oftentimes they contain the synthetic version of compounds such as vitamins, making them less bioavailable (not easily absorbed by the body). As a result, you end up wasting money on supplements that don't work. We do our best to provide discounts on high quality supplements to existing clients that are in our long-term programs.
