Joan has experienced remarkable success in helping clients heal and resume activities they love. Athletes have improved performance, desk jockeys and travelers have freed themselves of chronic aches, and mature adults have regained strength and range of motion. She works especially well with mature adults or those with physical limitations. Her clinical experience collaborating with medical doctors, osteopaths, naturopaths, and chiropractors gives her a comprehensive perspective on the human body. This coupled with her health science education enables her to take a “full body systems” approach. Postural alignment does more than relieve pain, it also reduces inflammation and boosts immune function. Joan takes the time to thoroughly explore her client’s history and goals. She then works with her clients to improve their quality of life by reducing chronic pain, improving balance, and increasing range of motion. Coupled with understanding each client’s history, she also assesses how a person sits, stands, and moves then designs specific, customized movement patterns to correct imbalances in the body. Questions about nutrition, sleep hygiene, stress management, or other lifestyle questions are welcome and included in the coaching session.
After retiring from a successful career in financial planning, Joan followed her passion to help others achieve optimal health as an integrative health coach. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Health Sciences, and multiple certifications in Health & Wellness Coaching, Functional Nutrition Counseling, Advanced Exercise Therapy, and Postural Alignment. She has four decades of coaching experience. She has three years of clinical experience collaborating with a wide variety of medical specialists and ten years of experience as a postural alignment specialist. Joan’s home base is in San Diego County, but she coaches people all over the world using a variety of easy-to-use audio-video platforms. In her spare time, she enjoys time with her husband and dog and serves in ministry praying with others for healing. She loves creating healthy recipes that take 20 minutes or less to prepare.
