Corey grew up living in chronic pain and constantly struggling with her weight, body image & mental health. She was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and depression at a young age and after a difficult battle full of tests, pharmaceuticals and wasting many years going to Western Medical Doctors; her journey led her to find yoga. This practice opened her up to seeking other healing alternatives for wellness and the rest is history. This influenced the way her life shifted and changed forever.
Corey works closely with athletes, yogis, those that suffer with acute or chronic pain & everyday humans.

Why “Gypsy Jasmine Wellness”?
Here is my why-this girl right here….
My best friend and heart dog Jasmine who I grew up with by my side for 12 1/2 years transitioned in 2021 after a long battle with cancer. As sad and heartbreaking it was, it was also one of the most beautiful experiences of my life that I got to share with her.
Over the years, she had a few external masses that we would remove and she would be fine for years until one day when she was showing some very concerning symptoms so I brought her in to see a Vet immediately. After running some tests, the vet told me she wouldn’t even make it through the night and that I should put her to sleep then and there. As I held her tightly; I screamed and I cried but something in my heart told me it just was not her time yet. I trusted my intuition, took her home and immediately started doing my research on alternative things that could help prolong her life. We proved him wrong by taking the holistic approach to fighting Jasmine’s cancer and she made it over an entire year later!
Jasmine taught me so much during her time here on earth. She taught me unconditional love but also truly opened my eyes even more to seeing the power of natural healing and trusting your own intuition. I am so glad I decided to take her home from that Vet hospital that night and I am so grateful for all those extra beautiful moments we got to share because of it. I miss her immensely but I believe she is still guiding me along my journey today.
My business name and all I offer here is in honor of her🐾
Why I do what I do today?
I share all that I do today in hopes of helping others learn to trust their intuition and allow it to guide them to find what feels good in their own bodies. My never ending journey with chronic pain has made me realize that no one should have to struggle living with chronic pain and unfortunately so many people do.
I have learned that through mindful movement, the power of the breath and rewiring the mindset, you are capable of anything!
Allow me to be your guide !
“In between where you are and where you want to be, there is endless, boundless peace. There is an opportunity to be still, as you find yourself in the gap between the past and the future, knowing that this is the space where you were called to come alive. And it’s okay if you feel uncertain here. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You are free to take this moment by moment, and see the wholeness of it all: some things will be difficult. Some things will be easier. Some things will make sense, while other things leave you with questions. But all together, these mountains and valleys create a landscape, where somehow, through it all, everything finds its place.✨”
