Allison France, L.Ac., LMT
I’m Allison. I’m glad you’re here. It is my passion to help patients achieve pain-free living and understand how to support the needs of their body. This includes getting to the root cause of discomfort whether it be chronic pain, headaches, fatigue, injury, anxiety or stress. Pain can come in many forms, disguises and expressions.
It is my goal as your practitioner to not only resolve symptoms but to also help you better understand the cause of your discomfort and to create a plan to maintain optimal health.
It is with genuine curiosity that I approach each client. I love working to understand the human experience and I have a passion for anatomy, physiology and the mysteries of our bodies. I have recently returned to Sandpoint with my husband and two kiddos and am excited to be contributing to the wellness community in my hometown.
