Shellie is a Registered Nurse with more than 20 years of experience across med-surg, orthopedics, OB, home care, hospice, long-term care, and dialysis. Throughout her career, she has witnessed the physical and emotional toll of chronic pain and the challenges patients face when traditional treatments come with significant side effects. Her passion for alternative pain management was shaped by her global experiences, including studying palliative pain care in India and supporting patients across communities throughout the United States. Shellie believes in a more compassionate approach to pain care — one focused on relief, healing, prevention, and improving quality of life through safe, effective solutions like neurofunctional pain management.
