01What does your business do, in your own words?
R3 Vitality is a boutique health and wellness spa that helps adults achieve their best selves down to the cellular level. Services range from energy and sleep improvement to non-invasive fat loss and muscle building. We also work with neuropathy issues, TBI, lymphatic drainage, anxiety and depression, post-surgery recovery, athletic recovery, body composition and postural analysis, and peri/post menopausal issues with coaching. We also offer light, sound, and vibration therapy for soberdelic and cyberdelic sessions.
“We continue to see massive improvements with each session.”
02How did you get started? Give us the origin story.
I started this healing journey back in 2000 with massage therapy. Before 2010 I became a NASM Certified Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist, Sports Nutrition Specialist, and MMA Conditioning Specialist, plus a TRX Coach and Haganah Fight Coach. I expanded into whole body cryotherapy in 2014, and functional medicine and health restoration in 2022. It has all culminated in the healing modalities and energy work we do here at R3 Vitality.
03What would locals be surprised to learn about you or the business?
I also do health, wellness, intuitive guidance, and coaching for individuals or businesses. I'm a Reiki Master Teacher, and I got my certification from the Foundation for Shamanic Studies in Shamanic Counseling in San Francisco in 2005. I occasionally do mediumship work when requested.
04What's your favorite customer story?
Recently a client came in with neuropathy in her feet and legs due to surgery. She came for hydrogen inhalation therapy, and we took a chance on our Green Violet Laser neuropathy protocol. She felt immediate relief, with improvement over the next 24 hours, and we continue to see massive improvements with each session. My second favorite was a client who lost over 18 inches and 12 pounds of fat in six weeks with our Emerald Laser.
05What do you wish more people knew about your industry?
That there are some really exceptional, non-invasive options to pharmaceuticals and, occasionally, surgeries. Sometimes finding a root issue can make a huge difference in quality of life without having a lifelong dependence on things your body ultimately doesn't appreciate.
06Why here? What made you choose this area?
I moved north of Austin and wanted to be close enough that my North Austin folks could continue to come without being prohibitively far. As a bonus, I now get people from Georgetown, Leander, Liberty Hill, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Lakeway, and Hutto.

07What's next for the business this year?
We're trying to double our memberships and getting the Erchonia FX405 laser to round out our laser equipment.
08What early mistake taught you the most?
Don't buy expensive equipment outright if you can lease to own. Sometimes that monthly payment and interest is annoying, but depending on the lease terms, it's better to keep your cash in the bank.
