About Nancy Bruce - Overweight as a teenager and throughout her twenties, Nancy tried every fad diet. She struggled with yo-yo weight loss cycles and the emotional toll that comes with it. When her son was diagnosed with Autism, in her early 30’s, she began researching and training in alternative care and treatment strategies. Once she began to feed her family real food, she saw and felt immediate improvements in the well-being of her entire family. She also began to explore the underlying emotional triggers that had led her to struggle with weight and health issues for so many years. She finally shed excess weight that had troubled her for decades when she uncovered and released her subconscious weight loss blockers. It was not about the food, and it was not about lack of self-control. With decades of experience, as well as her training as a certified Emotional Freedom Technique Practitioner, Emotional Weight Loss Coach, and Registered Holistic Nutritionist, Nancy has developed an approach based on “healing” and empowering her clients, allowing them to feel confident and to love themselves. From that base, Nancy assists her clients in building new habits and thought patterns for a lifelong healthy lifestyle.

Dr. Farahani is well-known as a trusted, competent and above all caring dentist. Until recently he was only in Stratford, seeing adults with advanced dental needs. Now in addition to helping adults, he wants to help the younger generations by meeting them “upstream” to prevent rather than significantly intervene. Dr. Farahani’s patient base has not been from any one city, but instead, from the entire province, as well as from across Canada. His opinion has been sought by hundreds of Naturopathic Doctors from across Ontario as well as by publications such as Alive Magazine, The Globe and Mail, and The Toronto Star. In 2016 he was on a learning exchange at the world-famous Paracelsus Clinic in Switzerland which was featured in the Truth About Cancer series. Dr. Farahani is planning guest lectures on his approach to Total Health Dentistry with world-renowned Dr. Thomas Rau MD.

About Mary Jo Robson - Although new to Holistic Dentistry, Mary Jo Robson, Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH), has been a "mouth-gut-body connection" advocate for the past 20 years, as well as, a member of the female population for the last 40 odd years. Mary Jo believes wholeheartedly that your "health is your wealth", and that life is an ever-changing, balancing act. On any given day you can find her dog-sitting, child-rearing, cooking, hiking, reading and smiling! In her professional life, she hopes to provide a welcoming and comfortable environment for periodontal therapy. Together, throughout all stages of life, Mary Jo and her patients collaborate to identify ways in which oral health interventions can bring about total health and life balance.
