A Different Approach to Midlife Health

Val’s approach to health and wellness is grounded in science and honors a woman’s unique physiology and health goals.

Unlike the one-size-fits-all programs that promote extreme dieting and harmful restrictions, disregard individual circumstances, and overpromise the effects of supplements, Val’s approach is focused on empowering her clients to discover a lifestyle that maximizes their vitality, confidence, and future health.
