Meet Ashlee
Hi! I’m Ashlee Symcox
and I am a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (or FNTP for short).
I am proud to say that by trade, I am a nurse. In fact, I spent my career as an ER nurse since 2009! I have seen first-hand the devastation of chronic illness on peoples’ lives, their life pursuits, and the impact it has on their families and dreams. You may be wondering how or why I became an FNTP and it’s because of the same reason you’re visiting my website now.
In 2018, I began experiencing symptoms that no doctor could explain. I went from being a healthy, vibrant nurse working 12-hour shifts, to being bed-bound with a chronic illness almost overnight! It didn’t take long for me to feel like I was falling through the cracks in the conventional medical system.
Although I felt powerless, I decided to take my health into my own hands and began looking into holistic health and nutrition. I was determined to get to the root cause of my illness.
In 2020, I received my FNTP certification from The Nutritional Therapy Association. In a way, I am grateful to have experienced my debilitating journey because it’s created a passion that allows me to help you overcome health adversities and thrive too!
I believe that there is more to truly healing from chronic illness than just bandaging symptoms and hoping for the best. If this is you too, then you’re at the right place. Let’s get to know one another.
