Paige Livingood
Paige Livingood, founder of Livingood Whole Body Health®, has been helping people in the wellness space since 2006. She started her career early, at age 16, working in a group home helping people with disabilities. Following that, she became a certified nursing assistant and attended cosmetology school. When learning about skin, the largest organ of our body, she saw how products in the United States are full of chemicals and unnecessary ingredients. She noticed discrepancies in products that would say they were using natural, plant ingredients but would be using them in such a low amount that it would not benefit the skin or hair. After Cosmetology School, she began working as a hairstylist and CNA, doing the hair of elderly dementia and Parkinson's patients in hospice.
Around the age of 22 years old her back went out while she was pregnant with her son. She was diagnosed with scoliosis and began physical therapy, which unfortunately made her scoliosis worse. She became a Massage Therapist and studied Structural Integration to solve her back pain. She alleviated her back issues after continuous study and practice, including learning to apply Myofascial Cranial Release. She had found a new purpose and passion for helping others through similar problems.
She noticed that Chiropractic Structural Integration helped tremendously for her back and others. Still, the results did not hold if she would have liked, so she found something that would fix the root cause: the Gyrotonic Expansion System®. Going to school to become a Gyrotonic Expansion System® specialist opened her eyes to a whole new way of correcting pain, helping chronic issues like frozen shoulders, or enhancing someone's performance as an athlete.
She moved to Florida and opened a wellness spa, Livingood Whole Body Health®, in 2013, which helped hundreds of people with chronic and acute injuries and pain. She trained multiple therapists to help her with her existing clients, doing Myofascial Cranial Release, Structural Integration, and the Gyrotonic Expansion System®.
This experience has led her to create Livingood Products, which are pure and potent plant-based products that help with natural recovery from inflammation, skin conditions, and arthritis.
Paige's purpose has always been to help people feel better inside and out. She continues practicing at Livingood Whole Body Health® while expanding her Livingood Products ® line.
