​The turning point came when she was introduced to FEMM - an organization that educates women and medical providers on a woman's fifth vital sign, her menstrual cycle. It was there that she learned that she could chart her cycles to understand what her body was trying to tell her and figure out a protocol to heal her cycles without resorting to band-aids or symptom management like birth control and pain medications. From the moment she learned about FEMM and cycle charting, she was hooked! She became a certified teacher at the first opportunity and from there, Lumina was born.

 

As she began working with women and educating them on their cycle health, she recognized once again that there was a massive gap in the healthcare world. Women had answers as to why their cycles weren't normal, but then where could they go to receive care to actually HEAL? For years, Dr. Mairead helped connect them with providers scattered around the United States (and the world! Yes, Lumina has helped women in Canda, South Africa, Australia, China, Italy, and Switzerland), but today we have help much closer.

Today, you can find help right here. 

 

Dr. Mairead has taken her background as an ex-championship level Irish dancer, certified sports medicine provider, certified FEMM instructor, Doctor of Chiropractic, wife and mom, and practicing Catholic to create a space where you can come learn about your body and how to care for it from a holistic, whole-person perspective. 

At Lumina, we teach you how to:

• chart your cycles so you can understand your hormones and fertility and how they impact your overall health

• listen to your body and build your intuition like a muscle through repetition, reflection, and trust

• orient your mindset to one that is supporting your growth 

• form and cultivate healthy relationships with yourself and your loved ones 

• properly source and prepare quality food without overcomplicating nutrition or excess spending

• use movement and exercise to love the body you've been given and create optimal health for longevity 

• eliminate or decrease what's no longer serving your greater good, be it tech, clothing, or items around your house

• create sustainable routines and rhythms so that health becomes less effort and a natural part of your life

• steward the body and life you've been given well without making health an idol

​

Your life will forever change and that is the whole point.
