I am extremely excited to announce the opening of Empowered Optimal Health, a Functional Medicine Practice. My name is Dr. Ruby Thind and I am the founder and a practitioner at Empowered Optimal Health. First, let me begin by telling you a little bit about myself, and how my life experiences helped develop a practice that I absolutely love. I also want to share with you what I hope to achieve through the Empowered Optimal Health Functional and Lifestyle Program.
My own personal journey into healthcare started when I graduated Chiropractic college in 2005. I was always very interested in preventative care and helped many patients heal using the natural method of Chiropractic, supplements and acupuncture. After having two young boys, I, like any mom, always put my children first and let my own health slip away. As I prepared myself back to go to work I noticed my health was not so great. I was experiencing extreme fatigue , was irritable all the time, was forgetting things and had so much brain fog. I was often dismissed as having baby brain, or its all in my head. Can you imagine how you would feel not motivated and just having no energy when going back to your career? One morning when I was dropping my kids off to school I bumped into a colleague that practices Functional Medicine, Dr. Sachin Patel. He saw how I was feeling and encouraged me to look into FM to heal. I began my journey into FM and started to apply principles of FM in to my own life and my family. My journey was transformational, I had so much energy, motivation, brain fog was gone and more importantly I go to the root issue of my problems and was able to fix them myself. There was validation for all of the ways I was feeling!
Functional Medicine ultimately turned my life around. This journey and my healthy lifestyle has also positively impacted both my children and my husband and as we band together to help people understand that your health is really in your own hands. Our way of live has become has resonated with many close family and friends and has helped them change their health for the better.
As I have started to help others realize the magnitude of devastation that chronic illness has on our society, much of which could have been prevented. Determined to help alleviate the burden of chronic disease. I attended a seminar on Functional Medicine and was instantly hooked! I became a Certified Functional Medicine and now I work with patients to help them to achieve optimal health through a Functional Medicine approach. To expand the reach of Functional Medicine, I created Empowered Optimal Health, where I work by partnering with you to investigate, and identify the reason or the root of why you feel the way you do. By listening to your entire health history and your story, correlate your lab testing and understanding the environment you live in to help resolve your root cause issues. We will provide you with the education, resources to support you with sustainable health strategies and skills as we co create your optimal health.
Personally, I am extremely blessed with an amazing husband who has been incredibly supportive as I pursued my dream of opening a Functional Medicine practice. I am a proud mother to two amazing little boys Simran and Jeevan. My family and I live the Functional Medicine Lifestyle and have seen our the health of ourselves and loved ones around us improve by implementing the Functional Medicine and Lifestyle wellness strategies.
As a patient, I would like you to know that I am here to listen to you, to understand your story.
I am here to help you understand how to restore balance in your body, and mind so that you feel your best self. When you feel your best, you will have the energy and power to support and create the life you really want, the life that you always intended to live!
