Meet our founder Christopher Ouellette
I started Healthspan Holistic in 2015 with a mission to help peple Live Young Longer! I developed a 4 Step Healthspan Plan which includes blood work testing, health tracking tech, holistic health coaching, and the best high quality supplements. Together these tools provide everything you need to achieve all of your Energy, Performance, & Longevity goals!
I suppose you could say that I've been preparing to build this company for the last 35 years! That's how long ago it was when I started working out. I remember my 1st 'gym' set up - two 10lb. sand filled plastic dumbbells, some push up handles, & one of those accordion spring loaded gadgets...I can still picture it! Even with this super basic gear, I was hooked! Next up was one of the early rowing machines with the hydraulic shocks. Then came the holy grail, I got an adjustable angle bench with all the bells & whistles - a boat load of sand filled plastic weights, an attachment for leg extensions & curls, & an attachment for pull downs - this was basement workout heaven! Once I blew out the hydraulic shocks on the rowing machine and couldn't fit 1 more 'thick ass' sand filled weight on the bar, it was time to take it to the next level and I got my 1st gym membership!
Fast forward 35 years, yes I'm in my 50's now holy smokes, and these days it's all about the best gym equipment, high level blood work testing, health tracking gadgets, and professional grade supplements. In 2019 I started getting serious about understanding, measuring, & improviding my inner health...things like lipids, hormones, vitamin & mineral levels, gut health, thyroid, liver health, and immune system just to name a few. These are often biomarkers that traditional Western medicine either does not put a lot of focus on and/or believes that they cannot be improved through lifestyle, nutrition, & supplementation alone. So, I sought out and worked with 2 naturopathic clinics here in Arizona with the intention of measuring, understanding, and improving my biomarkers. However, after spending thousands of dollars on blood tests, doctor consultations, and on their 'special' supplements, I felt more lost than before I went through the process. Trust me, the 80/20 rule applies to naturopathic doctors too! I knew something was missing and that there had to be an easier, less expensive, more actionable & interactive way. And, that my friends is how the 4 Step Healthspan Plan was born!
After many years of trial and error with my own peronal health & fitness, helping clients as a certified personal trainer during my college years, all that I've learned while building this website, becoming a certified holistic nutrition health coach, and my seemingly never-ending passion for this stuff that apparently is part of my DNA now, I am confident that Healthpan Holistic can offer guidance & value to you along your #LIVEYOUNGLONGER Journey!
Sincerely,
