 ISSA Personal Trainer and MS Fitness Specialist, OptimalBody Fitness Training Program Coach

After quietly managing Multiple Sclerosis, focusing on daily self-care for 13 years, I met David Lyons of MS Fitness Challenge 4 years ago and realized I could do more. MSFC helped me recognize the deficits in my daily routines. With mentorship in proper nutrition, fitness and mindset, along with optimal supplementation, I have developed a daily regimen of self-care to become the best version of myself today. Sharing what I have learned and being a positive influence of change for others living with MS has been life changing.  Proud to be named a coach for David’s OptimalBody Fitness Training Program to make a true impact in the MS Community.

DVC Stem

DVC Stem is a medical center that offers a treatment protocol using 300 million stem cells sourced from ethically donated human umbilical cords. The stem cells used in the treatment have the potential to repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and modulate the immune system. This treatment can help people with chronic low-grade inflammation, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s, Crohn’s disease, and many other degenerative conditions. The stem cells are administered intravenously, minimally invasive, and have minimal downtime. Patients usually only need to stay in Grand Cayman for five days, and they are responsible for booking their travel and accommodation. The treatment results are quantified by measuring changes in unique inflammatory markers and subjective data in vitality questionnaires. Patients may see measurable results within 3-6 months following treatment and could experience lessening their symptoms within the first few weeks.  To learn more about this innovative therapy for MS, please visit our website.
