Alana’s personal and professional journey in health and wellness began in 2000 when she started working as a student athletic trainer at North Idaho College while taking pre-requisites for Physical Therapy. Upon moving to Denver in 2003, she worked as a Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer. She graduated from MSU Denver with a Bachelors of Science in Human Performance and Sport & Nutrition. This became her foundation for teaching clients how to take their health into their own hands using exercise and nutrition. Alana’s career in fitness led her to Yoga, where she learned about Yoga’s sister science Ayurveda. Ayurveda changed the way she viewed health. Through incorporating Ayurvedic daily practices, nutrition and herbal medicine she was able to resolve her chronic digestive issues and felt more vibrant than ever before. It had always been her dream to become an integrated medicine practitioner, so Alana went on to study nursing and she earned her BSN at CU College of Nursing and has been working as a Registered Nurse since 2015. While her clinical experience as an RN has been invaluable, she realized that Western medicine focused on treating disease and symptoms rather than the whole person. She wanted to focus on prevention over pharmacology and balance over bandaids, which led her back to Eastern Medicine. Alana graduated from Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2021 with a Master’s in Acupuncture and founded 3 Pillars Holistic Health where she blends nutrition, Yoga Therapy & Ayurveda, Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine into an integrative system to promote health and wellness to clients of all ages. Alana specializes in pain, musculoskeletal injuries, headaches, insomnia, digestive issues and women’s health. When she’s not learning or working, Alana enjoy spending time outdoors hiking, mountain biking and snowboarding, cooking, listening to music and dancing.
