ABOUT US

Jillian Wright has long since been passionate about health and wellness. This passion started when she was a young girl and her school presented a workshop on how detrimental high fructose corn syrup was to the body. Even though she was in the 6th grade, and her mother would deem this obsession comical, it lit the flame inside her heart to ensure proper nutrition. This continued well into high school where she attended her school’s varsity swim team and even into college where she earned a collegiate school record in the 100 Breaststroke, and a degree in Biology Pre-medicine.

 

            With school records and a trip abroad to China to study Traditional Chinese Medicine, she finished her bachelor’s degree enamored with the broad subject of health. She explored emergency medicine for a while after enlisting in the United States Army Reserves as a Combat Medic. As an Emergency Medical Technician, she found just how bad high fructose corn syrup really was, but nutrition wasn’t the only culprit to poor health. So was the overwhelming crisis of lifestyle abuse and poor mental health.

           

            It was this realization that showed her the way to lifestyle medicine, a medicine where a doctor can treat all aspects of the body – mind, body, and soul – with modalities such as massage, acupuncture, nutrition, herbal medicine, and so on. It was her dream to become this type of doctor.

 

Currently she is undergoing that dream while she is in a dual Masters and Doctoral program for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Additionally, she extends her time aside from school to serve her country as a 68W, or Combat Medic, in the Army Reserves. With her dedication to education and her discipline from the military she sees the importance of health and wellness as a whole and continues daily to dedicate herself to this dream.

 

For now, this dream starts as Wellness by Wright, LLC. A company in its beginning stages focused on providing optimal health to anyone it is able to reach. This business is operated by its sole member – Jillian Wright. At first, this business will begin providing massage services and as it progresses, Ms. Wright will be able to provide more advanced treatments like acupuncture.
