Welcome!

I founded Marisa Faye Wellness in 2017 to help women learn holistic healing tools & methods, so you can be in control of your health.

We blend the best of Functional Medicine with Holistic Nutrition to help women all over the world

Holistic nutrition seeks to address health by considering, assessing and implementing strategies that influence physical health, but also emotional, energetic and environmental health. While Functional Medicine uses data and an understanding of the body’s systems to create change by honoring your body’s innate ability to heal and return to equilibrium

How it started…

In my early twenties I was experiencing a long list of symptoms - fatigue, intense cravings, hair loss, bloating, constipation, inability to lose weight, high stress - so I sought out help from doctors and specialists. Each provider either shrugged their shoulders and told me this was just part of being a woman or pushed a prescription in my direction saying it was all they could do. After being diagnosed with PCOS and hypothyroidism and being fed up with the same response from healthcare providers, I decided I wanted a natural approach to reducing & reversing my symptoms

My aha moment…

After meeting with a few functional medicine providers who left me unsatisfied and with most of the same set of symptoms, I went through training to become a Holistic Nutritionist. Finally I started to get answers and learn why my symptoms were so persistent and started changing my diet, exercise habits, stress management strategies, and lifestyle. That wasn’t enough though - so I trained in functional labwork and ran lab tests to get data to learn even more about what my body needed. This combination of strategies is what really changed everything for me, and now I empower other women with the tools of both holistic nutrition and functional medicine.
