Christelle Sabini Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, AIP Certified Coach

Del Mar, California
USA
*Also Practices Virtually Worldwide

Christelle is a Functional Nutrition Practitioner based in San Diego, California. She spent her early years between France and the United Kingdom before settling in the United States, and today, she practices in person and virtually, with both French and English speaking clients.

Prior to discovering the field of functional wellness, Christelle worked as a corporate language coach in France. It was during this time that she began to wonder whether the birth control pill she had been taking for years was truly benefitting her. She had been prescribed oral contraceptives as a teenager to “help regulate her cycles”, and despite the unwanted side effects, she didn’t trust her body’s ability to function correctly without them. One day, she took a leap of faith, and decided it was time to ditch the pill and become educated on all things menstrual health. To her amazement, her cycle returned without any irregularities, and over time, she learned to track the subtle signs of hormone fluctuations occurring throughout the month. Better still, she discovered how impactful diet and lifestyle could be for her overall health. This newfound empowerment sparked a fire, and, following her international wedding and move to California, she trained with the Nutritional Therapy Association and began working with clients.

After being in practice for several years, she became certified with Functional Diagnostic Nutrition so as to incorporate functional lab testing and in-depth therapeutic modalities into her service offering. Being able to look under the hood and find hidden drivers of imbalance can be the missing link for many people with “mystery symptoms”.

Christelle’s calling to dig deep and help people elucidate their health mysteries arose from her own attempt to make sense of her father’s abrupt passing when she was 12. He suffered a fatal heart attack despite being told by his GP, a few weeks prior, that he was “healthy”. Somehow, the explanations provided by the conventional medical profession in the wake of this tragedy fell flat (genetics/bad luck/etc.). After all, he was 40 years old, and had no formerly diagnosed pathology. Looking back, she believes that he had all the telltale signs of metabolic disease. Unfortunately, this was back in the 90’s, when low-fat diets, margarine, and refined flour were deemed “wellness trends”.  It took years for her to transform her trauma into a quest to find answers – for herself and for her clients.

She often works with individuals who have also gone through similar traumatic life events, and while the scope of her practice is limited to physical wellness, she is deeply aware of the subtle body – mind interactions, and the ways in which trauma drives physical imbalance, particularly autoimmunity.

Today, she continues to consult with clients 1:1. She is also active in the French-speaking holistic health education space, teaching alongside likeminded practitioners.

As a Hashimoto’s patient herself, Christelle has profound empathy for those who suffer in silence. She loves to help her clients to find bio-individual solutions. Her approach is truly holistic.

Anna Murphy-Moore East Asian Medicine Practitioner, Yoga Instructor and AIP Coach

Address:
Portland, Oregon
USA
*Also Practices Virtually Worldwide

I’m Anna Murphy-Moore, a licensed acupuncturist and yoga instructor practicing out of Portland, Oregon. I was also diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in 2019 and discovered the AIP on my path to wellness.

In my own clinical practice over the last decade and in my own life, I have witnessed the silent epidemic of autoimmune disease. I have also seen how transformative diet and lifestyle medicine can be for those living with autoimmunity.

I integrate East Asian modalities like acupuncture and herbal medicine with diet, gentle movement and lifestyle modification to provide holistic health support. I also love to cook and eat and enjoy sharing this passion with my patients by supporting them in nourishing themselves. I believe health coaching is a natural extension of how East Asian medicine practitioners are trained to treat; empowering people to understand their unique and individual health needs and teaching them how to live lives that supports health, balance and vitality.

I see patients one on one in person and virtually. I also do group programs and teach online courses.

Elena Shumskaya Health Coach, Beauty Mentor

Address:
Moscow
Russian Federation
*Practices Virtually Worldwide

I am a beauty mentor. I take a holistic approach to skin beauty and health: through smart skin care, through proper nutrition, through nutraceutical support and a healthy lifestyle.
That is why I received the education of a cosmetologist, health-coach, specialist in functional integrative nutrition.
The autoimmune nutrition protocol for me is the path to a personalized diet that is right for each individual. By reducing the level of inflammation in the body, we heal, which means our skin is healed, and we look beautiful and young.

Sara Kowalik, MS, Dipl O.M., L.Ac. Licensed Acupuncturist, Chinese Medicine Practitioner

Address:
1908 N 203RD ST
SUITE 4
ELKHORN, New England 68022
USA

My name is Sara and I have a Master’s of Science in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and a board-certified Diplomate of Oriental Medicine by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM. I have been practicing as a Licensed Acupuncturist in Nebraska since 2013.

My motivation for becoming an Acupuncturist and more recently an AIP Coach stems from my own battle with autoimmune disease. I have been on the Autoimmune Protocol and am grateful for the changes it has made in my health. I understand the struggles that come with an autoimmune diagnosis and how AIP can be a game changer! Having personally benefited from both Acupuncture and the Autoimmune Protocol, I am excited to combine the knowledge and skills to assist others to unblock their roadblocks to health and well-being.

With that, I want you to understand that there is hope to change your story. There is absolutely no reason for anyone to live with whatever pain or condition they are facing. Acupuncture is a body-mind-spirit medicine that treats the whole person. I will work with you as a whole person, not as a disease. I want to hear your story to find out what your specific issues are that are keeping you from flourishing. I will help you by making nutrition and lifestyle changes and suggestions while also utilizing acupuncture to help maximize your healing potential and to reduce pain and stress, giving you back the quality of life you deserve.

Jackson Penfield-Cyr Licensed Bodyworker

Address:
Hanover, New Hampshire
Vermont
USA
*Practices virtually worldwide

I’m a licensed bodywork therapist, providing manual and movement therapy for posture, pain, and performance, with special expertise in pain education, breath training, and autoimmune coaching.

My mission is to invite you into a whole new relationship with your body and mind – one empowered by scientific principles that help you make informed choices and changes in your habits, health, and well-being.

There’s a lot of health care modalities out there. I know it’s a challenge to navigate the modern health care field, a vast spectrum of industrialized medicine and alternative interventions, full of various traditions and diverse techniques. In fact, it’s overwhelming – especially when you’re in pain.

In my own healing journey, I wanted one thing: Empowerment. I wanted knowledge and experiences that gave me the information and developed skills to use intelligently in my work to resolve my chronic pain and autoimmune conditions.

This led me to avoid services and products based upon doctrine and dogma, in my search to discover the fundamental principles of human health and well-being.

Today, research in the fields of neurobiology and autoimmunity serve as the foundation of my practice.

The therapeutic services I offer invite you the opportunity to experience an education in mindful embodiment, to learn about your physical existence in our physical world, and to empower you to embrace true ownership of your health care.

For more information, please visit my website or contact me to set up a consultation.

Thank you for your consideration of your healing, health, and well-being. Have a grateful day.

Hi, I’m Julie Hasan, and I am a Certified Holistic Health Coach.

As your health coach, I will help you develop your personal health goals and together we will work towards achieving each goal that you set out for. I will be with you every step of the way, guiding you, cheering you on and celebrate every milestone you achieve.

I am here to help you simplify the process of your transition into the autoimmune protocol.

Becca Benning Functional Health Coach & Nutrition Counsellor

Address:
Bromley (Kent) and London, UK
United Kingdom

*Practices Virtually Worldwide



Hi, my name is Becca and I am a Functional Health Coach and Nutrition Counsellor. As a behaviour change specialist, I will support you to design and implement a realistic plan of lifestyle and dietary changes to reduce inflammation and get your spark back.

In 2016, my neurologist told me I was on ‘a trajectory of increasing disability’. That led me to AIP, and it changed everything. My trajectory these days is one of cumulative improvements! Taking the reins of my own health is the best choice I ever made. The collection of lifestyle and dietary changes I have built over the years enable me to manage multiple sclerosis, coeliac disease, adenomyosis, thyroid dysfunction and more. I am stronger and healthier in my mid-40s than I was in my 20s.

I soon knew I needed to take my experience and use it to support others as they embrace their own turning point to better health. My in-depth training with Chris Kresser and Andrea Nakayama beautifully complements the AIP, and brings Functional Medicine to the core of my approach. That means that we are never stuck, and there is no rigid rule book of ‘you must ___’.

Autoimmune disease can make it feel like we are trapped on a small and isolated island. If you are here searching for support, my hunch is that you’re ready to take to the water and explore. You get to choose whether you start with a paddle, a deep dive – or something in between.

As an experienced former teacher, and a parent, I am absolutely convinced that a key part of turning the tide of chronic disease is to work with children alongside their grown-ups. This is why I offer services for families and schools as well as individuals. There is plenty to explore if you’d like to know more about me and how I might be able to help you. Check out my website and/or social media – just search for my name.

If you’re ready for your first step, drop me a line to book a free 30-minute chat – no sales pitch or pressure.

Hello! I am Dr. Elizabeth Nordin, an OBGYN physician in White Bear Lake, Minnesota (a suburb of the Twin Cities). I am grateful to have learned about AIP from wonderful patients, and I am excited for others to learn about it as well. I am honored to be a part of patient’s lives as an OBGYN, and my practice has a special focus on serving patients who experience infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and other women’s health issues. I enjoy using a root-cause approach for diagnosis and treatment, and I have had the privilege of seeing how AIP can be a healing part of this journey.

I have also completed a fellowship in medical and surgical NaProTechnology so that I can serve patients by treating endometriosis and other gynecologic conditions with the goal of fully removing disease while preserving fertility and preventing pelvic adhesions.

I look forward to working with you!
