Your Instructor & The Story Behind IHPI

20 years ago it took all of my energy just to get out of bed each day…

Every joint in my body hurt and every lymph node was swollen –

My entire immune system was shutting down and I had what doctors and specialists referred to as an incurable chronic illness…They gave me no hope of recovery.

I was told at best I would need to take a fistful of medication for the rest of my life and do my best to manage my diseases. That bleak diagnosis led me down a very dark path of anger, despair, and self-pity. I questioned whether this was even a life worth living?

After all, I could no longer play sports, study in school, or go out late with friends…

I felt I had nothing left.

Until one day by sheer chance my mom was told about a local “Integrative Health Practitioner” just one town over from us – The odds of this back in the late 1990’s was extremely rare! Sitting in his office and hearing him explain to me how there was most likely specific underlying root causes of my disease was life-changing…

He spoke to me about food sensitivities, adrenal imbalances, and many other natural health terms that were foreign to me and my family. He also shared with me how stress, sleep, diet, exercise, and many other lifestyle factors contributed to my getting sick… I literally couldn’t believe what I was hearing, but I innately knew he was speaking the truth.

This one encounter led me down a new path – One that was grounded in real science, but also rooted in natural health, which would help to restore the human body back to its natural state of health and vitality. For the next few years I read every book I could find on diet, health, and fitness while running multiple at-home lab tests. I was slowly accumulating the knowledge I would need to one day fully heal, but it was all disconnected…

That’s when my mentor appeared because as they say, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear…” And I was ready! I listened to her every word, and she finally connected state-of-art Functional Medicine at-home lab testing with other Naturopathic forms of medicine such as Ayurveda. Not only did I now fully heal my body (and mind), but I made it my mission to take this lost knowledge and study it at its deepest level right at the source.

While getting my doctoral degree in Naturopathy, I studied and interned at clinics and hospitals all over the world learning first-hand all forms of holistic healing in India, Sri Lanka, China, Europe, and the US. What I discovered was that each one of these forms of natural health can help people get well, lose weight, and live longer stronger, but by themselves they were often incomplete. It is only when you integrate all forms of healing without judging which one is best, can you truly heal yourself and others.

Now, 250,000+ client appointments later and with one of the largest Functional Medicine & Integrative Health practices in the world I can with full certainty say, I invite you to  discover what truly works in the real world with real clients so that you can go on to help yourself, your family, your community, or build a career as a leading Integrative Health Practitioner and Certified Health Coach.

I look forward to seeing you inside the IHP Community soon!

The Benefits of Becoming an IHP Certified Health Coach

Becoming a Certified Integrative Health Practitioner (IHP) Health Coach offers a wealth of benefits for both personal and professional growth. First and foremost, this certification empowers health coaches to embrace a holistic approach that blends ancient wisdom with modern science. By mastering foundational health principles and protocols, such as the DESTRESS Method, developed by Dr. Stephen Cabral.  Certified IHPs gain the tools needed to address clients' needs in a comprehensive, individualized manner. This approach emphasizes addressing root causes rather than merely treating symptoms, ultimately helping clients achieve optimal wellness.

From a professional standpoint, the IHP certification distinguishes health coaches in a competitive market by demonstrating their expertise and commitment to evidence-based practices. It allows them to offer a wider range of services, including personalized wellness plans, functional lab assessments, and preventative strategies tailored to each client's unique health goals. This comprehensive training enables practitioners to cultivate a deeper understanding of various disciplines, including Ayurvedic Medicine and Functional Nutrition, enhancing their ability to design customized care strategies.

Another significant benefit is the strong support network available to C
ertified IHP coaches. The Integrative Health Practitioner Institute fosters a global community of like-minded professionals dedicated to holistic health and wellness. This supportive environment encourages collaboration, continuous learning, and sharing of best practices, helping IHP coaches stay current with industry trends and breakthroughs. Additionally, the institute offers ongoing resources, mentorship, and advanced training opportunities to further refine coaches' skills and keep them at the forefront of integrative health.


Ultimately, becoming an Certified IHP Health Coach equips individuals with the knowledge and confidence to guide clients on their wellness journeys. They can empower clients to take charge of their health, make informed lifestyle changes, and establish sustainable habits for lasting transformation. This certification opens doors to new career opportunities and allows Certified IHP Health Coaches to positively impact the lives of clients and communities, fulfilling their passion for holistic health.
