At Houma Health and Wellness, Windy Adams practices lifestyle medicine, taking a different approach to healthcare. Windy addresses her patient’s issues by identifying the root cause as she learns about her patient’s diet, exercise and sleep habits, social connectivity and stress. As a nurse practitioner, Windy chose this field of work because of the challenges it provides, and the diverse opportunities to do meaningful work.

“I treated liver disease in South Louisiana for 10 years, and this is a disease primarily related to lifestyle choices. I became passionate about helping people make better choices. This ranges from avoiding substances to eating healthier. My mentor Dr. Andrea Espinoza suggested that I look into getting lifestyle medicine certified. I feel like God took over from there,” Windy shared.

With a focus on prevention, she encourages patients to find out why they have a particular issue or diagnosis. “I love helping to determine the contributing factors to medical problems, and addressing each of the six pillars of health: sleep, physical activity, social connectedness, nutrition, stress management, and substance abuse avoidance,” she said.

At  Houma Health and Wellness, healthcare is not one size fits all. With individualized patient care based on many personalized factors, custom treatments are as unique as each patient. “We like to think outside of the box, and this doesn’t always include traditional Western medicine,” Windy said. With a pharmacist and board-certified endocrinologist on staff as well, the team at Houma Health and Wellness is prepared to address a variety of needs in a variety of ways including IV therapy, cryotherapy, infrared sauna, massage therapy, red light therapy, normatec compression, and microneedling.

In addition, Houma Health and Wellness  promotes physical activity right next-door at Houma Health and Fitness with barre classes, Zumba, TurnUp, spin, Boot Camp, and Pilates reformer classes.

If you’re ready to improve your health and wellbeing, and exceed your healthcare goals, Houma Health and Wellness can guide you down the path of wellness. Whether that be through lifestyle medicine consultations, fitness classes, or with IV vitamin infusions, Windy is ready to help you to navigate the road to true healing.
