Our Story
At Jacksonville Natural Healing, we believe true wellness goes beyond treating symptoms—it’s about creating a space where healing feels personal, accessible, and transformative. Founded in 2018 by Alejandra Amegin, a proud Latina, veteran, and dedicated wellness advocate, our practice was born from a deep passion for helping others reclaim their health and vitality.
With a team that includes experts like Dr. Dan O’Leary, a skilled chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner with over 14 years of experience, we’ve built a community where clients are empowered to heal, grow, and thrive. From our inclusive yoga studio to our innovative wellness therapies, everything we do is guided by a commitment to making a difference in the lives of the people we serve.
Our mission is simple:
To inspire and support our community in achieving lasting health, vitality, and connection—because true wellness is about more than feeling better; it’s about thriving in every aspect of life.
Whether it’s through personalized chiropractic adjustments, functional medicine consultations, or yoga and mindfulness practices, we aim to meet every client where they are on their journey and help them achieve lasting wellness.
