MLH Wellness

First, what I’m going to say is that, i feel sorry for the people that go to see Monica and say that she is a «snake oil salesman» or what she doing is a «scheme.“Because they will never really know, what it is to actually be healed. I tried the all the diets, and it really doesn’t matter how healthy you eat. You need to kill the bad stuff in your body and balance it out like i’ve learned from Monica.
Now lets get into my issues… Maybe a year ago, I woke up with pain in my bladder, back, prostate, testicles, and when i would urinate, but even before then, for like 5 years, i was always bloated after i ate. I went to a doctor then a specialist and they diagnosed me with Chronic Prostatitis. They gave me Antibiotics of course, for this diagnosis. Two weeks into taking the «medicine» I started getting pain in my legs and arms. Which i thought was weird, but maybe it was a «side effect.» Then i woke up one night with my hands and feet feeling like they were on fire. So now i had to go to the emergency room and the doctors thought it was a «side effect» from the Antibiotics. The burning did go away actually, in a couple of days. But what was left from that experience was wide spread pain.
So now i had pain in my bladder, back, testicles, prostate, arms, legs, head, feet, stomach and more. So i went to a Rheumatologist and he diagnosed me with Fibromyalgia now. My life had turned into a living hell. I would cry every day and just look outside and think «I can’t live like this.» From this point on i tried almost everything. I tried raw vegan, vegan, juicing, fodmap, paleo diet. I went to 10 doctors and 5 specialists. Then i started going to naturopaths/​holistic doctors, actually 3 of them before Monica. No one could help me, i would pray everyday. I even went to a psychiatrist because the doctors thought it could be «in my head.» Even my own mother would say the same thing. Finally, i found Monica on Unilocal like whoever is reading this post. She told me about Nutrition response testing and balancing your body and all of this other information. I was skeptical in the beginning, because i had gone to so many doctors and other holistic doctors. But i said to myself «i can’t give up.»
The first week some of my stomach pains started going away, I was a bit shocked. A month went by and i started feeling a little more better. I started messing around with the dosing because i was still skeptical of what Monica was doing, which was a mistake because i was throwing my body off. I told Monica what i was doing because i felt like i wasn’t getting any better. And she told me of course, you are not following what i am telling you. I wish, i would of listened to her before, but you live and learn right?
So now here i am writing this review and i feel so great! I can work out, Dj, produce music and whatever else i want. I feel like my life is back! She also tells you how to eat, what water to drink and other great information that will help you learn what true health is. I feel bad again for people that say «oh what she tells you to eat is hard!» Um… you should be eating like that anyways. It doesn’t make sense to me why people think eating crap is not going to hurt your body. To be honest, i am even more strict then what she tells me to eat. I don’t even eat grains at all and you can if you want to. I could write more but i will leave you with one last thing. Follow whatever Monica says, if she says jump off a cliff do it. Ok that was joke haha. But seriously, listen to her and do what she says because she really knows how to help people. Remember no one could help me, i thought maybe this was the end for me, that was only until i met Monica.

Before i walked into MLH wellness i was a little skeptical about the idea of holistic medicine. When we got there Monica ran a few tests on me to show me the power of holistic healing. All I can say is that I was amazed. The first test she performed was a nutrition response test. After evaluating the deficiencies in my body she placed several different minerals on my stomach to show me how ineffective my body functioned without them. Another test she performed was demonstrating how mobile phones have the ability to render us weaker by showing me how strong I was when i held a mobile phone with a special cover on it versus when I held my phone without the case. Monica is great and her knoledge is contagious.

I’ve been with Monica for over 2 years, and my health improved DRAMATICALLY after seeing her consistently. I came in with all sorts of issues: constant headaches/​migraines, constant sinus infections/​cold-​like symptoms, constant sinus inflammation and mucus buildup in my throat, major acid reflux issues, constant food/​environmental allergies, and that’s just naming a few. I had already tried to see many other holistic doctors previous to Monica, I tried so many different regiments and doctors and medications etc., so I was skeptical to say the least coming in to my first appointment, but I gave it a try nonetheless.
Right off the bat, I could tell Monica was unbelievably knowledgeable, professional, detailed, and was thinking outside the box in comparison to most of the practitioners I had been seeing throughout my life. Her approach was modern, simple, unconventional (and completely backed up by science) and that’s exactly what I loved about it (on top of the fact that she is hilarious and quarky, and just a lovely human being). Ever since committing to her program (which was completely individualized just for me, as it is for all of her patients), my health and my life VASTLY improved over the course of the next several months. After about 6 months, I couldn’t even believe it. I’m being completely honest when I say this… I wasn’t getting ANY headaches anymore. I was getting headaches multiple times per week before seeing Monica… but now I truly don’t get headaches. My sinus infections, which I was getting almost once a month, were DRAMATICALLY lowered. My acid reflux was all but diminished. My allergies were significantly lowered. For all of these health issues I was taking medications (antibiotics, ibuprofen, allergy pills, proton-​pump inhibitors for reflux), and I no longer needed ANY of these toxic medications anymore. No exaggeration or bias here. My experience with her has been extremely successful and life-​changing to say the least.
Let me preface all of this by saying: you need to be absolutely 100% committed and disciplined to her program for this to be effective, which hopefully you will be if you are serious about your health, because that’s what it’s going to take to make a big change. But to be clear, the program is nothing complicated. It’s a combination of an eating regiment + whole-​food natural supplements + lifestyle changes. It’ll take time (many many months, I’d say atleast 3 – 6 months before you notice some big changes), and it’ll take effort and discipline to say the least. You will need to dedicate yourself to a specific eating regiment (animal protein-​based, lots of greens, all organic if possible, no dairy, no wheat, no caffeine, no processed sugars, no alcohol, no drugs whatsoever, many other details) and you have to be firm on that to truly see some great results. If you were eating poorly before, you will soon see the amazing change your body makes when you simply change your eating habits to what she recommends (she will outline all the foods you should eat in detail, and to all the skeptics, eating healthy tastes amazing btw). You will also need to dedicate yourself to taking whole-​food natural supplements day in and day out, on time, and the proper quantity. She will test your body every time she sees you and will determine which supplements your body needs at that time, and it will be changing all the time over the course of months. She will help with all sorts of detailed lifestyle changes you’ll need to make to see results. Bottom line, you have to be DISCIPLINED, but your health will undoubtedly improve substantially.
If you were like me, tons of nagging problems that you thought will be with you for the rest of your life (or even more major health concerns), your mentality will change after seeing Monica. A world of possibility will open up for you. You can dramatically shift your health in a positive way, and Monica will give you all the tools and support necessary to make this happen. I was really skeptical going in… I was still skeptical about a month in to it. But I gave it time, and I gave it my best effort. I committed completely to it. And my health changed forever. To anyone who is at the stage in their life where they’ve tried so many alternatives to no avail and they are just begging to find something that’ll work and work in a BIG way, I’d recommend Monica without a shadow of a doubt. Be patient, be disciplined, and Monica will support you in getting the results you desire. Best of luck to all the newcomers!

Monica Monica Monica… she is such a character! Love her to pieces, and it’s actually funny — I think about her all the time and miss her energy and laugh! This review isn’t all fun n’ jokes. I walked into her office crying my eyes out and telling her about all my weird health problems. At the time, I had gone to doctor after doctor, blood test after blood test, and everything was N.O.R.M.A.L. Now, get this: there is no blood work involved in muscle testing — so without doing any blood work, Monica was the first person to tell me that I have THYROID issues.
Side note: I want to be honest in my review and say that this is one of the most expensive programs I have ever had to go through — I truly couldn’t afford it in the end or else I would have continued. Before you start, I would recommend asking for an estimate (any kind of estimate) — since you will be showing up WEEKLY to each session anddddd buying supplements. So be prepared!
Anyway, Monica was the only person that first of all, dealt with my super-​sensitivity at the time, and was able to get me back on my feet — anxiety free — and get my energy up. I unfortunately had too much going on –with a wedding and all — and had to stop, so I couldn’t get 100% better. I did go to her for about a year.
Now the most interesting part of all of this is that a couple years later, I went to a holistic doctor and finally got a blood test! It turns out that I have Hashimotos, which is an autoimmune disorder where my body attacks its own thyroid! Monica knew it ALL along! That’s impressive if you ask me.
Oh my and LISA — how can I FORGET LISA. She’s sooooooo sweet!
Bottom line — do your research! She can help you but make sure you’re ready!

Monica is a wealth of knowledge and chock full of information about health and wellness. She integrates eastern and western techniques and experience into each client’s plan, and really customizes your program for your specific needs and goals. She can help with any ailments from auto-​immune disorders to diabetes and a variety of pains and itches and all of it.
If you have been misdiagnosed, told «it’s in your head, you’re fine», or are just frustrated by not getting relief or results elsewhere, go see Monica and make your life better.

I came in with a Living Social coupon. I thought Monica was great as a person. I really liked her energy. My concern was with the so-​called «program» that she adheres to. As others describe, it’s a strict regimen, but she didn’t invent/​create it. It’s a scheme devised by a crafty chiropractor who runs «get rich quick» seminars for those trained in his system. It feels a little culty to me.
If you do some Googling for «Nutrition Response Testing» and «Ulan» you’ll find his marketing sites promising new practitioners a healthy income and patient obedience/​retention. This is what ultimately caused me to walk out the door. That and the fact that, regardless of how great Monica and her little dog are, she isn’t licensed in anything that my insurance will reimburse for, so you’re looking at $ 500-​$ 600/​month for up to 2 or more years without any sort of reimbursement. I also didn’t care for the gimmicky ritual of testing on one day and making you come back in a week for the «fact finding» visit. It’s a hard core sales technique that two chiropractors (whom I never went back to) also used. Please don’t waste my time. Just give me the results today — please.
«Nutritional Response Testing» is just another name for «Applied Kinesiology» coupled with Standard Process designer supplements. My guess is that many who show up have already exhausted their health options and are still chronically ill. If you don’t have the $ 14,000-$ 20,000 to spend on supplements and muscle testing, you may want to check out: amalgam illness (my sister and I both follow the detox regimen from this book and are healing through a simple protocol called «frequent dose chelation»), GAPS diet, FODMAPS diet (this is the science-​based one that’s really helping my sister), Fast Tract diet (this is the science-​based one that’s really helped me), SCD Diet, leaky gut syndrome, FMT therapy, etc. The toxins in our world have created a whole class of people who are chronically ill and a lot of people are getting help from these other methods.
There are many support groups on the web and a plethora of FREE information that thousands are using to «heal thyself» rather then sign up for a $ 20k secret «system» that a third party can hold over you for 2 – 3 years. Online, you’ll read about real people healing themselves of chronic life-​long issues through heavy metal detox and while detoxing, holding symptoms at bay with science-​based diets that aren’t necessarily rigid, but eliminate irritants. Can you imagine that I can drink gin, whisky or vodka and eat white bread without getting ill? It’s true — thanks to the Fast Tract Diet. I had no idea why brown rice and whole grains like quinoa were making me feel worse and slowing down my progress. Science-​based solutions are key here. So beware diets without sound scientific backing… they could sound good in theory but actually make you worse. Many folks who are chronically ill have sulfer issues and need to avoid all of the «healthy» green foods until they can clear heavy metals out. The greens can actually make you feel worse! So can whole grains. Again, educate yourself on the web for FREE.
Final note: Freddy Ulan who created Nutrition Response Testing is reportedly a Scientologist so this could be where the «strict» and «culty» feel of this method originates (and the strong sales pitch to trainees for high income potential). See this document for a behind-​the-​scenes look at the Nutrition Response Testing practitioners world:

Monica and Lola are amazing! Yes, i love Lola-​she is a huge part of my healing process.
It’s been over a year of appointments with Monica and I can honestly say that she is my personal savior. She is extremely talented and knowledgeable about what she does. Every visit to her office is a great experience. Her office space is beautiful, relaxing, welcoming and has a very cozy/​homey feel. Her office is like an oasis away from my home… it really is. Before seeing Monica i was experiencing several health issues: chronic fatigue, bloating, digestion issues, headaches, brain fog, dental issues, environmental factors affecting my health and overall well-​being.
I’ve gone from feeling crappy everyday to actually feeling awake and alive, both mentally (depressive and anxious) and physically. Of course i still have a long way to go, after all, consuming so much crappy food over the years, is what really got me in this situation of feeling sick and irritated all the time. But as Monica says, you’ll have to give yourself the time necessary to re-​set your body and re-​teach it to do its job properly. Yes, it is a significant commitment both financial and time management-​with weekly appointments but commitment and results are well worth my health and so i will continue to see Monica as long as i need to in order to regain my health back. I say this because changes will occur and you have to keep coming every week as your body adjusts and responds to supplements.
She is always available and extremely encouraging! I trust Monica so much in that i feel extremely confident in her approach/​treatments that i know that once I’ve had a bad week and I’ve reached out to her she will give me full attention and guide me through a new program which works and puts me right back to feeling great!
Her holistic, all natural approach gets results in ways Western medicine can’t. Her understanding of combining nutrition, herbs, homeopathy and whole food supplementation have given me more energy and an overall more balanced feeling of well-​being.
Whether it’s a medical reason or just to find your balance again, I recommend seeing how she can help you.
Thank you Monica!

By the time I had gone to see Monica, I couldn’t eat anything-​I was having an allergic reaction to everything I ate. I have been intolerant to gluten for about 4 years prior (my Grandma was Celiac), but then suddenly everything I ate gave me terrible reactions. I felt full all the time, I was nauseous, dizzy, lethargic, I felt heavy and had no desire to eat because I knew it would make me feel worse.
My friend had gone to Monica who had cleared up her severe psoriasis (which doctors had told her she would have for the rest of her life) and recommended that I go see her. I had seen my friend go through the program and I thought I would NEVER be able to give up sugar!
I couldn’t be happier with my choice to go to Monica. Right away I was able to start eating without feeling terrible, and over the months I’ve seen a change in my body. I’ve lost weight and I’m gaining muscle-​even though I’m working out the same amount before I went to see her (3 – 5 times a week). My body is getting what it needs!
I’ve been on the program for about 4 months and I’ve probably got about another year. Initially I thought I would commit really hard and blast through the program in three months or so, but it doesn’t really work like that. My body has a lot of healing to do and it just takes time. The diet and whole food supplements are healing my body but it is a process. Although I felt relief immediately, we haven’t «cured» the root problem and cleaned out my system entirely. It is a commitment-​giving up sugar, dairy, soy and gluten. It is costly (about $ 240 a month in visits and anywhere between $ 25-​$ 300 in supplements a week) so you need to budget accordingly. I don’t have much money as a starving actress, but I seem to always be able to make it work. You most likely will be on the program for a year. That was hard for me to take in because I had really hoped to expedite the process by being perfect on the diet and save some money [as well as get back to having sugar. ;)] But when you consider the cost of going to a western doctor, prescription pills full of side-​effects and don’t actually help the root of the problem and then further complications down the road, this program saves you money, and your body, in the long run.
The steps I’m taking now are saving me from illness and complications. Monica educates as you go through the program, so you understand why you’re doing what you’re doing and additional ways to protect and help your body. Monica is always bright and lovely, and Anna is really sweet. Lola is the cutest little dog, I hope one day you catch her with her tongue sticking out of her mouth. ;)

Monica and Lisa are the sweetest people and the program is good. The thing though is this is a VERY expensive program (the prices listed on the website are very real and you will start by paying on the higher end.) Also the program is VERY demanding. There is a VERY strict diet and you must visit every week. I am a health nut and this program was so strict I felt like my life got put on hold. Also to see the full results you need to commit to 3 months but really the full program can take a year. I did feel a bit better after two months but I just couldn’t afford it so I just went back to my usual healthy habits because I’m a normal working human with a life and it’s all I can do. The one annoying thing is the appointments are back to back and I felt very rushed for the cost of each visit. I think this sort of program is the type of smart alternative medicine that our culture is sorely in need of but I would only recommend Monica’s particular program to those who can be really committed.

First things first, I’m going to apologize for this review being so long over due!
Going to MLH Wellness was the best decision I’ve ever made for my health. Honestly, I came here as a last resort. After experiencing recurring bacterial infections, swollen tonsils week after week, terrible UTIs, and somehow developing a disgustingly stubborn case of psoriasis all in the span of about 6 months, I was at my wit’s end. Every doctor and dermatologist I went to said the same thing: that these health problems were just something that I would have to live with for the rest of my life. I couldn’t believe it! I was miserable, depressed, and looked like a lizard person. And this was PERMANENT? So, in desperation, I decided to look into holistic medicine, something that had never seemed to carry much weight to me.
I found Monica through a Living Social coupon, and I decided to give it a shot. Best. Decision. Ever. I was a bit skeptical at first, but hey, nothing else was working (a combination of steroids only provided temporary relief before the cycle started all over again), so I stuck with it. Almost two years later, my psoriasis is 100% gone (I don’t even get flare-​ups, I mean GONE), and I have not even gotten sick since I hit about the 8 month mark of religiously seeing Monica. Antibiotics, steroids, lizard skin, and physical discomfort are all a thing of the past. And oh yeah, have I mentioned how amazing I feel? I didn’t even fully realize how out of wack my body was until I was reminded how it felt to feel good.
I won’t lie, the program can be a bit difficult at first. Getting into new routines, changing your diet, and cutting out some delicious (and unfortunately, detrimental) foods is a challenge, physically and emotionally. But the payoff is well worth it. Thank you, Monica!!!

I’m an oncologist which means I’ve been trained in conventional thinking for too long when it comes to health and wellness. I’ve always been relatively open-​minded but I’m still trying to make sense of Monica’s semi-​mystical powers. I’m 7 months into the program and I’m off all meds, including recently my allergy med which I never thought possible, and my diet and energy are the best they’ve ever been. I’m still working on a couple issues, so I can report back on those. But just to give you an idea of how amazed I’ve been, I have started to educate myself in all aspects of holistic health and I’m even considering learning nutritional response testing among other approaches to natural health. I now regularly lobby my doctor-​friends to learn about non-​medication approaches to health. The only thing I’d warn is that you should come to Monica when you are serious about getting healthy and are willing to make it a major priority in your life. You may start feeling better quickly but true health and wellness will take time and dedication.

I am not affiliated, not a family member, not a paying customer of this establishment. I only came to this page being referred to it as a possible future client, but reading the reviews, like everyone else, feel that some injustice has happened with a 2-​star review here. Assuming these email exchanges between «Sasha» and the business owner have not been doctored, :-) it looks like the business owner here took a very professional tone and attitude in responding to very unfortunate negative criticism that does seem unfair. Consumers don’t know, or don’t care, that a small business owner these days relies on and is sometimes only able to provide the good work they put out thanks to good feedback posted on Unilocal and end up coming to this great free medium, from which all can and do benefit, to express their old economy mindset and attitude towards others in general, displaying self-​entitlement and one-​sided perspectives that hurt great, thriving small businesses (not an easy feat for any entrepreneur) just because they have the power to do so, regardless of the harm to others. Perhaps these are the consumers that still prefer to toss their hard-​earned cash into the bank accounts of corporations that can’t care less about the small business owner or the consumer alike, wen all they had to do is be sympathetic to the misunderstanding and take advantage of the fact that dealing with a small business staff that is right there in from of us, perfectly able to solve issues and aware that this is what they rely on for a pay check. Shame and such a waste.

This review is long overdue. I came to MLH Wellness a year ago with a whole slew of health issues, made worse by the fact that I have a missing organ. I was extremely frustrated with traditional western doctors. My ongoing health issues were never treated with anything more then antibiotics and other prescriptions that only made me feel worse.
I am very thankful to have found MLH Wellness. Monica is incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive. She is relentless in finding the root of your ailments and supports you through every step of the program. Since working with Monica my health issues have either been completely resolved or tremendously improved. As other reviewers have mentioned this is not a quick fix. It is a commitment but the results and improvements in your health are totally worth it.
Monica and Lisa are super friendly and warm. I always look forward to my visits. I highly recommend MLH Wellness to anyone looking to improve their health and well being.

If I could give MLH Wellness a million stars I would. Monica has seriously changed my life (and Lisa is awesome). I know that sounds dramatic, but she really did. Before MLH wellness I was living with fatigue, strange symptoms that were dismissed at my doctor’s office and an overall feeling of blah. I couldn’t really describe it what it was, but I just couldn’t start my day without a cup of coffee and I felt foggy throughout the day. I pretty much thought it was apart of getting older (I’m in my early 30s) until a co-​worker of mine began seeing Monica. My co-​worker raved about how amazing she felt (and she looked great) and that was the impetus for me to give MLH a try. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical that I was going to be able to follow the nutrition requirements (everyone has a different plan) as I love wine and junk food. But I must say, the way I felt really pushed me to stay focused and now I am the happiest and healthiest me. The program is catered to you, no two people are alike. And you will have to be patient as real change does not happen overnight. This isn’t a gimmick; the program is about making real change within. And within the first couple of months you will look and feel the difference and your body will be on its way to operating at its optimum level. Monica will be there for you every step of the way. She is your cheerleader, coach and confidant. I can’t tell you how many emails I have sent her in the middle of the day with random questions and she is always there to answer every question or concern.
If you are at all hesitant, just book a consultation with Monica and see what MLH can do for you. When someone say’s they don’t have time for health and wellness, my response is «do you have time to feel like crap»? And if the answer is no, then run to MLH don’t walk!!!
Thank you Monica and Lisa — you ladies have transformed my life and I will forever be grateful!!!

I actually went to Monica initially on a general search to learn more about holistic treatments for the symptoms I was experiencing. What I came to understand and learn from her has changed my life forever.
After my initial consultation with her, I knew I was 100% in and ready to start learning more about my body and how to make the best choices for it. However, my bank account was definitely not. I was dealing with a tight budget due to paying back my Student Loans, but knew that when I decided to start my healing process with her, I wouldn’t be able to ‘pause’ due to financial adjustments. That’s not to say that Monica’s services are too expensive — I feel that all her prices are EXTREMELY fair, and you really get more than you’re paying for in terms of attention and compassion from her. She’s ‘in it’ just as much as you are.
Six Months Later, I was finally ready to get started. And I am so proud and happy that I did. Over the last six months of working with Monica and learning about the stress and challenges my body was going through, I have been able to:
–Completely eliminate the constant Anxiousness/​Anxiety Attacks I was frequently having (and taking RX medication for)
–Ween myself off of all unnecessary RX medications (specifically, for Anxiety, Allergies, etc.)
–No longer experience constant sinus issues (infections, colds, etc.)
–Alleviate ALL sleep insomnia issues
–Eliminate digestive irregularities/​annoyances
–Regain the energy levels in my day-​to-​day life that I haven’t felt since College (and that wasn’t too long ago!)
–Experience dramatically better mobility/​flexibility and physical capabilities (finally able to exercise again!)
–Learn what foods/​substances/​products help support my body in a healthy way, and which ones work against it.
–Get my body into a healthy, balanced state (including some weight loss)
–Eliminate constant cravings/​dependency on sugar, caffeine, alcohol
I think the real essence of what is so great about Monica and NRT is that it’s literally customized to YOU. Seriously. No more magazine articles telling you why you might be allergic to gluten, or why you just need to drink more water with lemon, or other broad/​generic information. Monica and her method of testing is 100% customized to exactly what your body is going through. So much so, that it’s freaky. She was able to discern things about my body/​symptoms that I hadn’t even thought about or realized. To say it’s eye opening is an understatement.
To those of you who are looking for a healthier way of life, but are on the fence about Monica’s services or NRT in general, PLEASE do yourself a favor and just go for it. At first, it it can seem expensive, but if you do the math, and follow the steps, you’re actually saving money in the long run. Yes, the dietary changes/​eliminations are serious, but the more serious you are, the better and faster your healing will be. Plus, you will always have a friendly, informative, and supportive ‘partner in crime’ with Monica by your side. She really is the backbone of the whole process.
I’ve already recommended a number of people to go see her — and you definitely should too!

Love Monica and her program, she is extremely bright and well-​versed in alternative healing. I only wish I lived closer to he
so it wasn’t such a drive for me. I still follow her advice to avoid dairy, wheat, soy and sugar and it has helped me a lot!

MLH Wellness was a game changer for me!
I have been plagued with stomach issues for as long as I can remember.
I would eat food and would either get a headache, feel bloated, lethargic, nauseous or all of the above. My digestion was also very slow. after eating a meal around 8pm and would have to sit up in bed passed midnight because I still felt like there was a brick in my stomach.
All the doctors and specialists that my mother took me to as a child and even the ones I’ve seen as recent as last Spring were of no help. I would test negative for everything they could possibly think of. No allergies, no leaky gut, no acid reflux etc. etc.
In the end their common conclusion was that it may be psychological. After 30+ years of pain and frustration, I decided to look into alternative medicine and discovered MLH Wellness on Unilocal.The reviews were incredible so I thought, at this point I have nothing to lose.
First I spoke to Monica on the phone and started to go over my symptoms and asked her if she could help me figure out what foods I should avoid. She ended up telling me that wasn’t how her program worked and how it is designed to HEAL the body so you can eat what you want (in moderation) without feeling sick. This concept was completely foreign to me. Heal my body? Blown away by her claim I scheduled an appointment.
4 months into the program, I am a changed person. Monica has greatly improved the quality of my life with a combination of nutritional response testing, supplements, nutritional education and proper diet. In addition, she has taught me so much and completely changed everything I thought I knew about food. You definitely have to discipline yourself and do the work, but if you are willing, the results are unbelievable.
I can’t recommend MLH Wellness enough. It’s definitely one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself.

5 Stars! A+++ Monica at MLH has my absolute HIGHEST recommendation.
I’ve been going to her for the past 3 months and I can’t say enough good things about her.
From day 1, the results that I’ve seen were unbelievable.
She is the absolute BEST at what she does! And if you are serious about your health and want the best treatment you can find. Look no further.
I’ve had severe stomach problems, major food allergies, constant drowsiness, fatigue, brain fog, among other fun things.
And could not find anyone out there that could help me. Trust me, I’ve tried. I’ve been to several of the top doctors in the US. flown out to New York City, Seattle, LA, etc.
Spent tens of thousands of dollars to get absolutely nothing.
NO ONE could help me. There was nothing they could do — besides hand me some prescription drugs to help me live with the symptoms.
I had enough. I was tired of blowing through money and KNEW there had to be a better way. That was when I found MLH Wellness. and I am SO glad I did.
From the very first moment I walked into the door, I knew she was different. I knew I was in the right place.
The whole atmosphere of the office is so warm and friendly! Monica has an amazing personality that makes you feel so relaxed, comfortable, and treats you like royalty.
She absolutely LOVES what she does. and it shows! I’ve never met someone that cares so much for all of her patients as she does.
And her expertise is INSANE. Within 5 minutes she was telling me exactly what alot of my problems and allergies were. just by looking at me. Unbelievable!
I swear she’s got supernatural powers sometimes.
Anyways, the results I’ve seen so far are out of this world! I got instant relief from alot of my symptoms. I’ve had MAJOR improvements sooo fast, with problems that I’ve been suffering from for years… problems that NO doctor was able to help me with.
I live down in San Diego. and GLADLY drive 3 hours + just to see her. That’s how good she is!
These are just some of the reasons on why I adore MLH Wellness. They ROCK!

I went to MLH Wellness because my body’s immune system started acting weird. I couldn’t get rid of some strange virus symptoms despite several doctors visits and more than a year to «get over it». Then I broke out into a weird skin rash. It seemed everywhere I was turning doctors were telling me that all I could do was suppress my symptoms — that there was no real way to tell what was wrong or ever actually fix it. That’s when I discovered MLH Wellness on Unilocal and was inspired by the philosophy on their website: «treat the source, not the symptom.»
When I first visited Monica I was pretty skeptical and not sure I could manage both the financial and time commitment. Since I had participated in methods using muscle testing before it wasn’t too out of my realm of understanding — but still it seemed a little bizarre. I decided to give it a shot and just wait and see if it worked. As it turns out — working with Monica has been the most impacting and beneficial decision I have made for my health to date.
Within 5 weeks I started noticed improvements in my health — better digestion and more consistent energy. Soon I started shedding weight — even though I was eating lots of food. Although it was a challenge to avoid happy hour cocktails and french bread Monica helped me figure out what foods to substitute (coconut milk instead of dairy in my coffee) and what foods to completely avoid. Even when I did go off the program with the occasional drink or sugary food, she helped me figure out how to get back on track. I was shocked to be eating as much as I wanted — and foods that were delicious (eggs, steak, avocado, and more…) — and shedding pounds like it was nobody’s business — and without ANY exercise. I’ve always struggled with being a little overweight and had never been successful with keeping weight off. Despite an assortment of diets and approaches– nothing stuck. When I started the program I weighed approximately 165 lbs. and now — almost one year later — I weigh about 125! I lost 40 pounds and its staying off! It’s been crazy to go from a size 12 to a 2 and to have found an approach to food that I can manage for the rest of my life.
Although the weight loss has been one of the most obvious and enjoyable benefits of the program it is just one of many. Through the course of this program I discovered that my morning slump, moodiness, and huge energy dips were actually not personal faults and definitely not normal — rather they were caused by my body’s inability to handle certain stressors. I used to think I was just a super emotional person who hated getting up and going to work every morning — soon I came to find out that was PHYSICAL not emotional, that it is actually possible to wake up feeling amazing.
Other wins: I had the most horrible cramps and PMS that plagued me and have now disappeared. Through the program I got rid of those pesky virus symptoms that had haunted me, eliminated parasites, got rid of bacterial infections, and even addressed the horrible cold sores that I’ve been stuck with since I was a kid.
As if it couldn’t get better, I feel confident that I’ve actually supported my body to the point that it can fend off future illness and disease. (Cancer and certain health problems run in my family so I’ve always wanted to do my best to fend them off but never really known how). Okay, so I’m no fortune teller — but this is the healthiest I’ve ever been and I’ve got to believe that old adage «prevention is the best medicine.»
I’ve explored many types of natural or non-​traditional methods and this is the first that has had a real and lasting impact.
Reality check: The program requires dedication and commitment. You have to make changes and you have to keep coming in every week as your body adjusts and responds to the supplements. There are ups and downs along the way as new layers of disease and issues surfaces. It is a significant financial commitment. Despite all this it is totally worth it. Monica will coach you and support you along the way — although don’t be surprised if she keeps you on your toes… you can expect a scolding followed by a pep talk after a weekend of binge drinking :). It is worth every penny. The hard work you invest in helping your body heal itself WILL pay off.
This program has changed my approach to caring for my health. I can’t help but reccomend it to my family and friends and to you my dear Unilocal stranger…
If you are willing to take a shot, check it out and see for yourself :)

Monica is my new FAVORITE person.
Let me give you the readers digest version of how I ended up in her care:
I’ve always struggled with my weight and a severe addiction to sugar and refined carbs — which is a very dangerous combination from a health perspective.
In 2007 I weighed 330 pounds, it took me 5 years BUT I’ve lost over 100 pounds.
Fast forward to the beginning of 2013 — I had maintained my weight for about a year and half, but still had about 25 – 30 pounds to go and had recently quit smoking.
Enter MONICA, who I found on Unilocal.
She broke down some serious mental barriers I had to what it meant to be healthy. Her understanding of her profession is IMMENSE, she is the culmination of three things I believe deeply in but NEVER found in ONE person — holistic medicine, acupuncture (NO needles though) and nutrition.
I’ve been seeing her for 3 months and have lost 15 pounds and feel like 1 zillion million billion (yeah I said it) dollars.
Western medicine does not address so many issues people have properly, Monica truly is the answer. Even if you feel healthy — CALL HER, she will change your life.
