Let the 36 Years of Experience of a Former Fibromyalgia Sufferer Make Your Quest for Health Easier and Quicker
Our knowledge and experience can help guide you on your journey toward health

I discovered early in my life that I needed to take care of my health. At the age of 17 I was diagnosed with gout, an inflammatory condition cased by uric acid crystals settling in the joints. It usually manifests in the big toe but in my case it was in every joint of my body. Any movement at all was extremely painful. You can imagine that at 17 to be in this condition was a little shocking. At this point I knew that I didn't want to be on heavy duty pain killers and anti-inflammatory drugs and that I needed to research different solutions to my problem. This was the beginning of my experience with natural healing.

My quest led me to read extensively on the effect that diet and supplementation have on one's overall health. I realized that my diet and stress level were major contributing factors to my pain and suffering. I made radical changes in my diet to normalize my body's functions. Within a short period I was feeling much better and the pain was gone. My interest in health was fueled and I continued to read and learn about the way the body heals itself.

Over the years of raising my kids our health care consisted of chiropractic and supplementing with vitamins and homeopathic remedies. Although my focus was taking care of my family I never lost the interest in healthy living.

At the age of 40 I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. Again my structural system was under attack. Fibromyalgia is a set of symptoms including extreme fatigue, depression, constant and pervasive pain, memory loss, and loss of sleep to name a few. My intense desire to learn more was rekindled and I was on a research mission. This time I was led to an herbalist who introduced me to Nature's Sunshine Products. Even though I had taken supplements for many years I had never experienced products like these. Their effectiveness was amazing. I started a program that was designed for me and within 3 months I was feeling better than I had in years. At this point I knew my mission in life was to share the information I knew.

I began helping clients in private consultations on a referral only basis from my home. In 22 months I had outgrown my home and The Herb Cottage was born. That was in 1998 and my path continues to be one of an ever-expanding learning process. Of course this leads to a more extensive scope of services to assist my clients in regaining and maintaining their health. I am committed to staying abreast of the most current health information available.

I am passionate about and love what I do. I look forward to working with you as you journey toward better health.  Click her to Schedule an Appiontment.  Just let us know what times and day work best for you and we will get back to you.
