About Courtney Jonson, LAc, CGP
I am a care-taker (of a golden retriever named Reggie), a yoga student, a functional medicine practitioner, a licensed acupuncturist, a speaker and educator.
I have my own health transformation story but the essence if it is…. I didn’t realize how sick and tired I was until I started feeling light and alive again.
After almost two decades working in the field of healthcare, I have witnessed the power of what the human body is capable of …to the point that I now feel unequivocally obligated to share what I know.
What I Stand For:
- I STAND FOR transparency, self-empowerment, and autonomy.
- I STAND FOR making complex ideas simple for everyone to be able to understand and engage with.
- I STAND FOR teaching people what they need to know to take care of themselves.
- I STAND FOR helping like-minded people with their cause.
- I STAND FOR helping people reclaim their birthright - a healthy body that aligns with the light of who we really are.
What I Stand Against:
- I STAND AGAINST letting people living decades with symptoms that have no viable diagnosis to warrant treatment.
- I STAND AGAINST people being uninformed about how diet and lifestyle play a role in their health story.
- I STAND AGAINST the wait & watch healthcare model.
- I STAND AGAINST a health care system that doesn’t align with the body’s innate intelligence.
- I STAND AGAINST folks having to make uninformed decisions about their health.
