My Approach
What's This All About???
Throughout my lifetime I've witnessed sooooo many people suffering with their health. "Business" never has been, and still is not an interest of mine; however, doing the right thing is. At this point in my life, I've decided to follow my heart and be the change I so desperately wish to see in the world. I no longer charge a fee for consultations and instead ask for donations only. Give what you feel inclined to give without putting yourself in a financial bind (stress – no thanks!). I'm also in the process of adding TONS of useful resources to this website that I have found to be "root causes" of health challenges through research, clinical observation, and personal experience. Explore, reach out, visit the website often, ask questions and as I always like to say… happy learning :)
What I do:
1. Teach you the fundamentals of wellness and holistic health
2. Help you identify and remove the root causes of your discomfort
3. Teach you how to cleanse your internal environment of toxins (your body)
4. Teach you how to cleanse your external environment of toxins (home, work, vehicle, etc.)
5. Explain the importance of different labs/testing and how to use them
6. Always focus on YOUR goals
Items discussed during your consults will include topics such as: sleep, water intake, water quality, food intake, food quality, digestion, home evaluations, lighting, air quality, electric & magnetic fields/frequencies (EMFs), chemicals, toxins, body care products, genetics, labs, supplements, cleansing protocols, in addition to: finding and removing foreign invaders such as mold, mycotoxins, yeast, candida, fungus, parasites, bacteria, heavy metals, and more. Again - all while focusing on your goals :)
Some of you may be intimidated or shy when it comes to reaching out - please know that I'm just human too, and no question or situation is insignificant to your wellbeing, you can ask me anything and we can consult as many times as you'd like, it usually isn't a one and done ;) To sum it up, Nike's slogan fits well - "JUST DO IT"!
Step 2
I'll email you a legal disclaimer to sign and depending on what you'd like to discuss I may also send you a wellness intake form to fill out.

Hi, I'm Abbey Skinner, and quite frankly, I've been through HELL with my human body, how about you?! ;)
All jokes aside, I've struggled on and off since I was 8 years old (see picture below) - the strangest things seemed to happen to me, and still do! Sound familiar ;) Recently, while adjusting to my physical limitations and "new normal" after being poisoned by a pharmaceutical drug (Cipro) in February of 2022 (destroyed my body, changed my entire life, and put me in a wheelchair), testing positive for Lyme's disease in 2023, then... the icing on the cake... in 2025 a blood test confirmed that 14 different molds/mycotoxins had colonized in my body due to working and living in water damaged buildings over my lifetime (check out the "Abbey Recommends" and "Mold" page to learn more about this test)!
Photo: Age 8 - Random body parts would swell one at a time, no one could figure out what was wrong with me :(. This lasted 9 months and subsided the day we moved from VA to FL - environmental reaction perhaps??!! This event is what sparked my interest in the human body.
Side note - this photo is also the reason I will always have long hair ;) haha!
I've learned that ALL of my health challenges throughout my life have been and are my greatest gifts. They were and still are opportunites for me to learn first-hand, so I always know what others are going through. I have been led me down a very specific path personally and professionally (holistic health) and to my life's purpose - helping others optimize their quality of life and function of their human body while shining some light on root causes and roadblocks, but most importantly, offering holistic & natural solutions so you can be the best physical, mental, and spiritual version of yourself ❤️

I spent 14 years on active duty in the Air Force, 1 year working at the Fargo VA hospital as a Health Coach & Fitness Instructor, and 10+ years as a professor teaching Alternative Medicine, Integrative Health, and Nutrition at the American College of Healthcare Sciences. As you can see, Holistic Health is my world, and there is no place I can or rather be - thanks universe! As of Jan 2026 I plan to soley focus on healing and helping others through this website - something I have not been able to do since being floxed :)
