Nikki Bowles believes that when people know better they feel better.
And as a board certified naturopathic doctor, lifestyle coach and licensed esthetician, Bowles helps people make healthier choices, find balance in everyday life, and facilitate the natural healing process.
Since early 2009, Bowles has coordinated and provided a combination of holistic health practices through
New Vision Natural Health in Charlotte. And as her practice grew, she knew she was ready to expand, and to offer her blend of services through an established facility in Okemos.
In May 2014, Bowles opened a second office for her naturopathic health practice inside the Institute for Bioenergy Studies at 4655 Dobie Road. She'll be there two to three days a week, she says, providing services that involve natural health consultations, bodywork therapies, energy healing techniques and Feng Shui adjustments.
"We can provide guidance and recommend things that can help you feel better," says Bowles, who also coordinates services with several independent holistic practitioners that includes a sustainability specialist, doula, intuitive Reiki master and holistic music advocate. "We can also address what might be putting you out of balance."
Bowles says that a variety of factors can create imbalances in the body and affect the natural ability to heal. Those factors might include poor nutrition, structural problems, negative thought, emotions or environmental toxins. Bowles works to gather information on a person's lifestyle and habits, and suggests combinations of therapies that can help.
Bowles says she is looking to expand her network of practitioners as well as to open a store or co-op that showcases various naturopath practitioners, products and services.
"It would be an additional doorway to empowering people to heal themselves," says Bowles. "It would be another way to help you connect with people who can help you on your path to wellness."
New Vision Natural Health will be hosting an open house at their new Dobie Road facility on May 31, beginning with a free open group meditation from 11 to noon. The community is invited to come and meet practitioners, see the facility, and learn about products and services from 1 to 4 p.m.
