Shelby Stoddard, NP-C, MS, APPN, RN
Shelby is a practicing Nursing Practitioner in Idaho and serves as the medical director for the renowned West Clinic in Pocatello. She holds additional licenses to practice in Wyoming, Montana, and Utah. She is a holistic healer, believing that finding the why to symptoms is key to promoting optimal health for patients. She is a neural therapy guru, understanding your bodies energies are made to flow without blocks just as your veins and arteries are meant to. She has a vast understanding of how to integrate biology, physiology, quantum physics and regenerative modalities for your optimal health and wellness. She realizes sick care is promoted in the United States and has a personal goal to facilitate change in this thinking to all whom are graced in her presence. She realizes that integrating links that actualize the mind, brain, nerves, and immune systems work together to be well: fighting infections (immune responses), repairing tissues, and modulating cellular activity. She realizes sickness and disease becomes evident through trauma, exposure to poisons/toxins, and or pathological, that are worsened by the negativity one is exposed to for further cellular damages. After finding Dr. Masaru Emoto’s water experiment-“words are alive” and embracing the concepts of neural therapy and energetic medicine, she has further reasons to believe that the dissolution of disease disharmony and trauma can be healed by embracing various healing practices. She prides herself in being open minded and offering tools for change for a life of blissful, luminous expression, knowing we all are beyond symptoms of disease disharmony.
Shelby teaches patients at the West Clinic how to mobilize and enhance their ability to be well by expressing themselves in multiple processes to stimulate their immune system and other organic systems to utilize the body’s natural processes to achieve and maintain an optimal state of health.
