MEET ASHLYN
Hi! My name is Ashlyn Wang, and I am a Holistic Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) focused on restoring gut health and nervous system health. If you're new here, I'm sure you can relate to some part of my health journey.
4 years ago, I began struggling with chronic gastritis pain, IBS, bloating, constipation, nausea, and extreme anxiety.
I was so bloated after each meal that I only had less than 10 "safe" foods (this is not normal!) that I could tolerate without feeling any intense stomach pain. I saw countless doctors and specialists to try figure out what was going on in my body as I knew something was off, but they just said all my labs came back "normal". Once I graduated college and started my new consulting job, that is when my symptoms got worse. On top of the digestive issues I was having,
I started experiencing joint pain, hair loss, irregular periods, mood swings, brain fog, and adrenal fatigue. My body was so inflamed that I gained 10 pounds.
After spending thousands of dollars on lab tests and doctor visits while still receiving zero real answers, I decided to take charge of my health. I began exploring natural healing through holistic nutrition and lifestyle changes. I started piecing together the information I learned from podcasts, online practitioners, and books. This eventually led me to start working with a NTP who specialized in gut health and nervous system regulation using nutritional therapy and somatic therapy, which changed my life.
For the first time in 4 years, I actually began to see real progress in my health.
I was no longer getting bloated after every meal or feeling extreme burning gastritis pain. My constipation went away, as well as my nausea, constant headaches, extreme mood swings, brain fog, and adrenal fatigue. I can eat pretty much all foods again. My periods are more regular. My joint pains have drastically reduced (I love to play pickleball)! I feel more at ease and safe in my own body instead of feeling constantly stuck in a state of "fight-or-flight". I also lost the 10 pounds I gained by reducing my inflammation through nutrition and lifestyle changes.
Experiencing firsthand the transformative effects of eating whole foods to heal my gut, lifestyle changes, and nervous system regulation, I decided to pursue a career as a NTP through the Nutritional Therapy Association. It is now my life's goal to help others who are experiencing the same symptoms I've experienced actually see results and feel WELL and SAFE and THRIVE in their body again.
Feeling healthy shouldn't be so hard, and I know how it can feel not getting the answers you deserve for your symptoms.
I am currently taking new 1:1 clients from anywhere virtually. I also work in partnership with Taira Chiropractic. Outside of working to help others improve their health, I enjoy spending time at the beach, reading, walking, pilates, hot yoga, and pickleball.
