My Story
Hello, my name is Anke Fronz, a board certified health coach, a licensed physical therapist assistant, a licensed massage therapist, a Reiki L4 practitioner and a Youth and Family Minister. I have over 18 years of experience in integrative medicine. I have developed a through understanding of the human body, the complexities of various musculoskeletal and neurological conditions and the relation between mind, body and spirit in healing.
The year 2003 was life changing for me for it was when I suffered a severe back injury with spinal fractures and a bulging disc. Little did I know 2003 would be the start of a new life path. It was during this time I realized the benefits of complementary approaches to medicine and healing. Physical therapy, massage therapy, meditation, Reiki, yoga, and exercise modalities, coupled with strong family and medical professional support, brought me healing.
In 2021, I became a certified health and wellness coach, to help people live their best life. This past year, I became a board certified health coach ( NBC-HWC). I specialize in helping clients with making changes in the areas of physical activity, stress reduction, nutrition, goal development, chronic disease management, follow through and overall health and wellness. I have worked with a variety of complex medical and psychological clients of all ages and backgrounds. One of my skills is bringing together traditional medicine with allopathic medicine in order to help clients implement their long term health and well being.
In 2024, my passion and goal is to use the modalities of health and wellness coaching, massage, functional rehabilitation, Reiki, sound healing, meditation and guided imagery to help my clients flourish and step into a healthier version of themselves. When not serving clients as coach, I enjoy making and selling Mala necklaces. I practice meditation, clean and healthy eating, walking, yoga, reading, swimming and being out in nature with my two dogs.
