Digestion - Agni 

Health begins with proper digestion. Signs of proper digestion include regular daily bowel movements, feeling hungry when appropriate and having a light, energetic feeling in the mind and body after meals.

Stress

Our lives are packed with movement, deadlines and stress.  Learn techniques that promote digestion, increase cognition and balance mood so that you can have the energy to do all that you want to do with vitality, positivity and balance.

Detoxification - Ama

Honor your unique biological fire to stimulate the metabolic breakdown of food and toxins. When digestion is out of balance, or weak, Ayurveda states the body can no longer absorb nutrients and undigested material turns into a toxic substance known as Ama. In Ayurveda, Ama, is the root cause of many diseases.

Testimonials

After a year of suffering from Gi issues, including severe diverticulosis, I’ve been able to find relief after working with Jessica Oker. Her skills as an Ayurvedic Practitioner are superb!

​

After Jessica’s initial consultation and assessment, I learned that my Vata was high and out of balance with my other doshas. She took the time to go over the lifestyle, dietary, and supplements I could change and add new ones to restore balance to my system. Jessica was patient and supportive, answering all my questions and reassuring me that I could feel much better. And she was right!

 

After a year of working with a GI Doctor, two nutritionists, and a Doctor of Chinese Medicine, I was sleeping better than ever and not waking up groggy in the mornings within a few days of following Jessica's suggestions. The bloating and painful gastro flare-ups I’d been experiencing for so long disappeared. I have far fewer aches and pains than ever and am much less anxious. In fact, I've reduced my anxiety medication by one-third—something I’d been unable to do previously. 

 

This experience has helped me get back in touch with myself, and I’m far more able to feel what my body needs to thrive. The lifestyle changes, diet, teas, and supplements have been life-changing. As a bonus, I’ve lost five pounds and am now back to my normal weight.

 

If you’re looking for an Ayurvedic Practitioner who is knowledgable, intuitive, patient, and kind, you will find that with Jessica Oker.

Why Naturopathy

What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is an ancient, complete science which translates to the study (ayur) of life (veda). It is a holistic system of wellness designed to teach us how to live our lives without disease or suffering. 
 
Ayurveda is a system that was written down over 5000 years ago, legend to be derived from the divine. Ayurveda is a blueprint for wellness that guides individuals to honor their unique constitution through diet and lifestyle.

Why Ayurveda?
Ayurveda does not separate the mind, body and soul, but honors all three to bring an individual back to a state of wellness over time. Ayurveda believes that once you balance these mind-body functions, our body’s natural intelligence will automatically drive wellness.
