Andrew's Vision

"My ultimate career goal as an Alternative Health Care Professional is to become a NCBTMB Approved Continuing Education Provider and eventually a Board Certified Osteopathic Physician. I would like to have the ability to work with my clients in most all aspects of their physical, mental, and spiritual health through my mobile massage and wellness practice. It is through my profession and my practice I am able to hold healing space for others, build community, earn a living, and find purpose. I am truly grateful to all of my teachers, students, and clients for allowing me the opportunity to do what I love. I am committed to learn, teach, work, and study to the best of my ability until my vision becomes reality. I invite you all to join me." -Andrew DeGroat, ND Owner|Namaste Integrative Wellness|Coming To Peace Yoga
