My personal journey to health & wellness

Hello, my name is Shabnam, but everyone calls me Shabi. What started as a personal journey became my passion and purpose.

Since I was a child, I struggled with constipation and digestive discomfort, despite growing up in a family that embraced a Mediterranean lifestyle. After moving to America more than 20 years ago, my digestive issues became even more challenging. I gained weight, frequently felt bloated, and often lacked the energy and vitality I longed for.

I knew it was time to take control of my health and begin a new chapter in my wellness journey. I improved my diet, practiced yoga, exercised regularly, and focused on creating healthier habits. Yet, deep down, I still felt there was something missing.

When I experienced my first colonic, everything changed. I felt refreshed, lighter, and more connected to my overall well-being. That experience inspired me to learn more about digestive health and ultimately changed the course of my life.

I was not only passionate about healing myself and learning more about gut health — I became deeply committed to helping others who were facing the same struggles I once experienced.

Today, I am proudly I-ACT Certified with more than 7 years of experience, dedicated to educating, supporting, and empowering others on their wellness journey. My goal is not only to provide a service, but to create a welcoming environment where people feel heard, cared for, and inspired to prioritize their health.

Healing is a journey, not a destination. Sometimes, the smallest step toward caring for yourself can become the beginning of a completely new life — and I am honored to be part of that journey with you.

I love my job! Healing myself was just the beginning.
Every Day, A Better You

Why do I love my job?

There are so many reasons. I truly believe that when people prioritize their digestive wellness and listen to their bodies, they often feel lighter, more comfortable, and more connected to their overall well-being.

One of the most rewarding parts of my work is seeing clients walk in feeling weighed down and leave feeling refreshed and renewed. Many people don't realize how much physical and emotional stress they carry every day. I often compare it to carrying a heavy suitcase for years without even noticing its weight — you don't realize how heavy it is until you finally put it down.

Helping people feel lighter, more balanced, and more at ease in their bodies is what brings me joy every single day. Seeing their smiles, hearing their stories, and being part of their wellness journey is a privilege I never take for granted.
