BUDDY ANN ROSS, ND, MS, BSN, RN, HNB-BC, HWB-BC


Holistic Nurse, Health & Wellness Coach, Reik
Certified Holistic Nurse, Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Reiki Master

Hi, I’m Buddy Ross. I am a Board Certified Holistic Nurse with 37 years of nursing experience in the following specialties: Trauma, Emergency, Emergency Life Flight, Surgical ICU, Dermatology, Rheumatology, Cardiac/Pulmonary Rehab, Gastroenterology integrative mind/body health coaching, and hospital based Reiki Clinic coordination. I am also a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach. I became passionate about holistic/integrative health early in my career after experiencing an immune system shut down that resulted in a severe illness. I began formal studies in holistic health and was able to completely restore my physical, mental, and emotional health. During my health crisis recovery, I developed a passion to bring health and wholeness to others who experienced health issues and felt hopeless.

 

As your holistic nurse health and wellness coach I use an integrative approach, I will help you to feel safe and comfortable by using active listening, empathy, and compassion in order to explore your physical, emotional, and/or spiritual challenges. After assessing your health, goals, wishes and desires for improved wellness, I will guide you through a process to assist you in motivation, “get unstuck, and bounce back to make healthy life changes. I will also help you to discover yourself in a new way. I will educate and coach you using a wide variety of tips, tools, and techniques to improve your overall health focusing on areas such as: nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, increasing energy and vitality, caregiver burnout recovery, reducing inflammation, improving mindset, exquisite self-care, restoring hope after a major life change and much more. Together, we will create a self-care plan that is empowering and realistic for you and your busy life. After working with me, you will see, hear, notice, appreciate and celebrate your life on a whole new level. I will help you grow, transform and find a renewed sense of well-being, no matter what health challenges you are facing.

 

I am also a Reiki Master/Teacher and have a passion for energy healing as another tool to facilitate body, mind, spirit healing. As a hospital-based Reiki co-coordinator for 20 years, I have witnessed incredible healing results from the use of energy medicine techniques like Reiki to balance the “biofield” of the body. (See separate Reiki description)
