Nicole Vandehurst, LMT, MA, CSCS
As an athlete and life-long health and fitness enthusiast, Nicole has always been fascinated by the human body. She began her journey as a wellness therapist in 2004, upon graduation from the National Holistic Institute, establishing a Performance Sports Massage practice in Santa Rosa where she worked with college, semi pro athletes, and fitness enthusiasts. A degree in Kinesiology followed, deepening her understanding of how to help others with chronic pain and unmanageable tension through bodywork. Her current practice as a neuromuscular therapist and strength and conditioning coach, blends her prior experience with trigger point therapy and a holistic approach to health and wellbeing, with an intent to bring the body back into balance. Recently graduated, (again!) with a degree in Sports Psychology, Nicole is now adding mental performance coaching to her impressive repertoire.
Jessica Cerasoli, LAc, RN
Early exposure to herbal medicine highlighted the connection between nutritional choices and physical and emotional well being for Jessica. She began her journey into healthcare as a registered nurse, first at Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno, before returning to her home community in South Lake Tahoe at Barton Memorial Hospital. After suffering some health setbacks, she found acupuncture to be an effective tool in rebuilding and resetting her system, and addressing the root cause of her struggles. Jessica graduated from Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, CA, where she received her Master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine and became a licensed Acupuncturist. Her focus is on integrative sports medicine and orthopedics, with an emphasis on pain management.
Emilie Delworth, DHN
Emilie is a recent graduate of the Edison Institute of Nutrition. Her passion for holistic nutrition developed after her own struggles with deteriorating health. Several years spent revamping her diet and lifestyle, and sharing this journey with friends and family, led to a formal education in the field so that she could guide others in reclaiming their own lives. Her practice involves a personalized approach based on biochemical individuality, and she’s a firm believer in balancing holistic remedies with scientific support. It is her greatest joy to be able to offer her skills and knowledge to the Tahoe community.
