If you feel like “something is off,” but no one has given you answers… You’re not alone.


Your labs come back “normal”…
Your symptoms get brushed off…
Your intuition says there’s more to the story…

At Root First Nurse, we slow down, listen, and finally connect the dots so you can feel clear, strong, and at home in your body again.

For women saying: “There has to be more than this…

  • Stubborn weight changes not matching your efforts

  • Low energy, brain fog, or feeling off most days

  • Mood swings, anxiety, or emotional ups and downs

  • Sleep changes, burnout, or chronic stress

  • Perimenopause or menopause shifts no one prepared you for

If you’ve been searching for real answers, you’re in the right place.

Why a Root-Cause Approach Matters:

Traditional care often stops at symptom management. Root First Nurse helps you understand the why behind what your body is trying to tell you so you can create lasting change, not temporary relief.

Your care is grounded in:

35+ Years of Clinical Nursing Experience

Board-Certified Nurse Coaching (AHNCC)

Functional Medicine for Nurses (INCA)

Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice (IFM)

A whole-person approach: mind, body, and lifestyle
