Meet the owner, Ashley Schwoerer—
I’ve been a registered nurse since 2017 and a Nurse Practitioner since 2022. I knew I wanted to be a nurse when I was in middle school. I worked as babysitter most of my adolescence and loved helping and taking care of others. After my grandfather fell ill of lung cancer and pancreatic cancer, I wanted to learn anything I could so that I could care for him while the home nurses were not at his home. From there, I took every medical course offered in high school. I went straight into my undergrad for nursing. I knew throughout my undergrad that I was in the right career path. A year or so into my nursing career I wanted to do more. I wanted to be the individual deciding my patient's plan of care. I knew I had more to offer. I went to complete my Master's Program, gave birth to my oldest, and finished my Master's a year later. I love what I do, I love caring for others and making a difference in their lives.
Struggling with body dysmorphia can be an intense and isolating experience. This is something, I too, have struggled with since adolescence. For many, mornings often begin with a harsh critique of one’s self-image. Especially after experiencing significant life changes, such as childbirth or menopause, it’s common to lose one’s self-confidence.
Not only was I struggling with self-image, but I was also managing digestive complications and food intolerances which was overwhelming. The accompanying vague symptoms of fatigue, bloating, skin pigmentation, and weakness added to my feelings of frustration and confusion as specialty medical visits did not yield clear answers. It felt disheartening, and lead to a sense of helplessness.
I took control of my health and took a more holistic approach by exploring functional medicine and hormone balance. This allowed me to understand the interconnectedness of bodily systems which provided valuable insight into my wellness.
With today’s medical advances, the vast array of treatment options provides a pathway to changing one’s relationship with their body. The journey toward self-love and confidence is not only personal but can also be shared. With over a year of experience in treating patients for weight management and functional health, I have witnessed firsthand the transformation that occurs when individuals start to embrace their health. The joy that comes with seeing patients gain confidence and improve their self-acceptance is truly fulfilling.
This realization prompted a desire to extend support beyond the clinical setting. By venturing out into the community, I aim to empower individuals on their health journeys, uplifting their self-image and facilitating a celebration of their unique paths. Emphasizing self-love and the importance of a positive reflection is at the core of this mission. This journey toward self-love and confidence is not only about addressing physical symptoms but also about fostering a positive relationship with yourself. Together, we can work towards a healthier and more confident self.
