Why I started Holistic Picks
For more than fifteen years I've been researching health the way many moms do: because the people I love needed answers. Along the way I kept running into the same problem. The practitioners who truly look at the whole person, and work on root causes rather than just symptoms, were hard to find. Most of them I found through word of mouth.
Holistic Picks is my way of sharing that word of mouth with you.
A little about me
I'm a certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner through the Nutritional Therapy Association, and I completed a nine-month Holistic Healing for Cancer program. My focus has always been prevention and optimization: supporting the body so it can do what it was designed to do.
Before that, and alongside it, I spent about thirty years as a family manager, raising two sons. I live in Encinitas and love this coastal community.
How the directory works
Practitioners marked ★ Christine's Pick are people I have personally worked with. Everyone else is listed because their approach lines up with a holistic, root-cause philosophy, but I haven't vetted them personally, so please do your own research and choose what feels right for you.
Know someone wonderful who should be here? I'd love to hear about them. Use the Recommend a practitioner link at the bottom of any page.
What I believe
Integrity, accountability, humility and civility guide how I run this site. No one can pay to become one of my picks, and if a listing is ever a paid feature, it will always be clearly labelled.
