Please share a success story from someone who has received services from a professional at your facility!
NaSaunda James has lost about 60 pounds working with us in the past year. As a result, her blood pressure and cholesterol levels have normalized to the point of needing almost no medication. She has more energy, sleeps better at night, has developed healthy eating as result. Alll of this sets her up for healthy aging
