Here is what some of my clients are saying…’’
Masha Weitz, owner of Champion Rhythmics
"I have struggled with a few health issues over the last 10 years: hormone imbalance, chest acne, stomach aches and cramps caused by bad indigestion, feeling bloated, troubles with falling asleep, constant feeling of fatigue etc. Over the counter medications would only sometimes help with symptoms but it would not ever fix the underlying problems. I was lucky that a friend recommended Joanna and Golden Wings Wellness. Joanna responded very quickly and we set up an appointment with her. At the time of the initial appointment she determined a regimen specifically for my needs and in just a month I was already feeling a lot better! And in two months I was amazed that after 10 years of struggling with acne on my chest it was all gone! I spent years putting various lotions on my skin all without much change. Turns out it's all about the right diet and supplements! It's like magic! Not only that, my cramps and aches went away, I sleep now a lot better and in general I feel more energetic and sharp. As a business owner I work a lot and I'm so excited to be able to get my work done with more ease, joy, energy and focus on detail. Joanna always responds fast and on follow up appointments adjusts the regimen based on how I'm doing. Thank you so much Joanna for making me feel AND look better!"
Andrea Olson
I am so grateful for Joanna, she is so knowledgeable in what she does and always leads with love and compassion. Her empathy and ability to really see ME as a whole person, connecting the dots in my health history for me that I never would have thought were related. I have learned so much about my body, my health, my emotions, NUTRITION, herbs, enemas, body systems, intermittent fasting, EMFs, crystals and more from Joanna.
I came to Joanna overweight, and tired of trying to lose the pounds without feeling good in my skin. I had inflammation in my body showing up as achey joints, a puffy face and lethargy. In just a month and a half I have released 15 lbs, I’m no longer puffy and I FEEL so much better!! That’s the best part, the weight is just falling off, but I’m not starving myself or on some sort of fad diet. I’m fueling my body foods that are right for ME, I’m taking my herbs that she recommends, doing intermittent fasting and drinking the right amount of water for my body. This is not a one size fits all program.
On top of all her invaluable knowledge, she makes the whole process fun, she answers all questions from a place of love, and she wants to see me happy and healthy.

My health journey with Joanna began in January 2020. I went to her for a number of health issues. She has not only helped me with them, but also helped me navigate through a cold, a bladder infection, and most recently surgery after a fall. All holistically.
I find Joanna to be a compassionate and knowledgeable nutritionist. Her care for you does not end when you walk out the door after your appointment. She makes herself available if you have a question or something comes up relating to a matter of your health.
In addition, Joanna also sends out emails with pertinent nutritional information and wonderful recipes. I would recommend Joanna to anyone interested in improving their current health situation.

Joanna has given me a second chance to enjoy the gift of life. I was not always positive about myself and at 56 years old, I didn’t bother to be healthy. After months of many MRI’s, CAT, and PET scans, I later find out my tumor in my chest was not cancer. My stomach was a mess from eating processed junk food for many years. This was a wake up call to change my habits. Joanna helped me change my diet and started me on a gentle detox program. “YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT” is a phrase I paid no attention to, which I do now. After 4 months in the program, I lost 12lbs I feel better and have much more energy. I also noticed that I can think more clearly and my blood pressure has dropped significantly. Family and friends have noticed a huge change in me. I have so much to live and be thankful for. Natural healing and healthy eating has improved my life dramatically. Life is a miracle. Enjoy it!
John M
Joanna, just a note to say persistence has paid off. I’ve done a lot of yo-yo dieting in my 72 years, now I am doing the things you’ve taught me. I started eating healthier foods that are more nutritious for my body. Eating this way gives me more energy and makes it easier to stay away from unhealthy foods. I learned new ways from Joanna to manage my cravings, which helped me drop more weight. Even with my busy work schedule I was able to incorporate a new lifestyle. I’ve lost 17 pounds so far and a lot of it was stubborn belly fat. I am at a good weight now, and I feel much healthier and stronger. Thanks!
Chelsea Haukom
Joanna helped change my life. She really came into my life when I felt like I was at rock bottom with my stomach problems. She not only got to the bottom of my gut issues, but she helped me through my emotional struggles that were also affecting my gut health. When I didn’t know where else to turn to for help, Joanna was such a blessing.
Rebecca M
I struggled with gut problems, food sensitivities, and sleep and energy issues for many years. Although I saw many professionals, any improvement in my health was limited and temporary. Joanna’s approach is working for the long term for me. The difference is achieving a true understanding of real health and nutrition. It’s really simple lifestyle changes, cleaner and better food choices, and getting to really know and listen to your body.

For a few years I had been on the right path regarding healthy eating, supplements and exercise. However I started to feel like I was relying on generalized information. With Joanna I feel like the information she provides is specific to me and only me. She is so caring and compassionate. Her knowledge and advice are amazing. She has a gift and we are all fortunate that she has chosen to share it.
Alisa E
I just want to express my gratitude for how much Joanna has guided me towards a healthier me. I have suffered with inflammation and eczema for years and am a two-time cancer warrior. I am seeing great improvements. She is so knowledgeable and passionate about guiding one to be their best self. A very gentle and wise soul. So lucky to have found you Joanna and have you be a part of my journey!
Christina Y
I have been taking my mom to see Joanna and have seen significant improvements in her health. Mom has come a long way in her healing process since she started working with Joanna. Mom is now getting the proper nutrition she needs and education; we have seen improvements in her health. She is not as tired, she sleeps better, and her dental and overall health has improved. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my mom and walking along side her and our family to do what’s best for mom.
Lori B
About 4 years ago I went to the doctor with a bloated stomach, high blood pressure, and almost completely nonfunctional thyroid and of course, high cholesterol. I was given a lot of medication and read about all the side effects associated with them. I decided to go to Joanna and said, “I need help”. She has been showing me how to eat right and what supplements to take. Now, I don’t need to take any medication. I take vitamins, and I am learning to eat correctly. At 75 I’m still able to run half marathons throughout the year and the full rock and roll marathons, which I couldn’t do for a long time do to my health issues. My endurance is now better than ever. Thanks Joanna!
Gloria Aretxabala Green
Thank you, Joanna, for helping me become a successful story after battling a deadly health challenge. Putting my faith on your expert advice on diet and supplements, which strengthened my immune system, I was able to win this battle. You always took into account my need for quality of life, guiding me with wonderful understanding and compassion. This is my new lifelong approach to healthy, joyful and loving life.
Sharon, Arizona
Joanna is not only very knowledgeable, she is understanding, caring and compassionate. She is always researching new avenues to help her clients. Joanna is completely devoted to the well being of her clients and family. She is one of a kind and very special. I am one of her devoted clients.
Erica, San Diego
Joanna at Golden Wings Wellness changed my life. I suffered from sleep issues for years, my mom and my grandfather both suffer from the same insomnia, the kind where you cannot fall asleep initially, so I thought that my problem was genetic. Then a girlfriend of mine told me about the amazing success she had with this nutritionist in treating her baby blues, then another friend told me about this same nutritionist (Joanna) and her amazing recovery from having a parasite, so I decided I would give it a shot and see if there was any hope for me. Joanna was amazingly knowledgeable and while things were a little untraditional from the kind of western treatments I was used to, I felt very confident that things would improve after my initial consultation with Joanna. And I was right. Within a month I was sleeping normally, without sleep aids or wine, for the first time since high school (14 years!) I continued with natural adrenal support. She also helped me with other imbalances in my body, and within a year I no longer needed the adrenal regulators and I have slept normally, soundly, and unaided ever since. I also saw Joanna for nutritional support during my pregnancy, which I contribute to never having morning sickness and having a very healthy pregnancy. It is amazing what she can find in your body’s energy and correct naturally. Thank you Joanna!!!
Marisa, San Diego
Joanna has been very helpful with my digestive issues. I’ve had trouble for years and I’m finally feeling better. I am so glad that I found her. She’s a very genuine and kind person who really cares about her clients. I recommend her to all my family and friends.
Kristen, San Diego
My experience and journey with Joanna has been amazing. Beyond her incredible knowledge is her love, kindness and passion that she shares. She always gives her whole heart and undivided attention each and every time we are together. I always leave confident with the information she has given and can truly say I feel amazing! I’ve seen Joanna almost a year and have seen such positive changes in my overall health and wellbeing. She always gets back to me when I have any questions or concerns. I just had a baby and Joanna was there for me the entire way and continues to offer her amazing advice as we enter this new chapter together. I’m so grateful for Joanna.
Anonymous, San Diego
I’m a 64-year-old woman who pretty much drilled myself into the ground the first 40 years of my life. Standard American diet, too much social drinking, over exercising, stressful job without managing the stress, etc. My poor treatment of myself showed up first in the digestion. As the gut began to misbehave, the adrenals refused to bounce back as they used to, and sleeping well became a thing of the past. I pushed and dragged on, thinking “so this is what aging feels like.” I had developed leaky gut, and its inherent food sensitivities; experienced inept dentistry leaving me with a dead tooth in my head for years and many old mercury amalgam fillings; broken my tailbone two different times; and had surgery which caused menopause. I started reading health-related books and newsletters and seeing doctors and alternative practitioners.
I learned that traditional medicine did not help me with my particular ailments. Just one example — a cardiologist prescribed a med for irregular heartbeat supposedly caused by a syndrome he diagnosed. My insurance immediately went up 20%. (Interestingly, about 17 years later, as a result of having fainted in a restaurant and being taken to the ER, many tests were done on my heart. It was determined I did not have that syndrome.) Refusing the meds, I sought out alternatives instead. I saw and worked with many well-meaning people, including chiropractors and naturopaths. The results were generally “two steps forward and one back,” with the occasional mini-crisis of some sort causing me to move on seeking better help. No doubt some of these mini-crises I caused all by myself, such as trying heavy metal removal following directions in a book. I did learn from all this, albeit painfully.
Joanna is someone with the knowledge, skills, tools, commitment and loving, calm, caring personality who really knows how to help people heal. I’ve learned just how tied together the body all is. By using her skills, Joanna prioritized my treatments and nutrition, doing what my body is ready for. She’s cleared multiple interference fields from various accidents and surgeries throughout my life. She helped me detox the right way, slowly and gently, always mindful of what the body can handle. For about 17 years the back of my head and neck were very stiff and ached. That is gone. I can sleep again. My general well-being is at its highest level in many years. Now I don’t need to experiment on my own. I can count on Joanna.

Not everyone needs or wants as much help as I do. Several of my family members have been to Joanna – my 90-year-old mother; husband; two young adult nieces; and two four-year-old kids of my niece. All have benefited. My husband regularly sees Joanna to peel his own 67-year-old onion. My mom had a chronic bladder infection for years. She lives out of state, so came here to visit Joanna. The treatments and nutrition worked, and she is still without bladder problems. That is, perhaps, the best way I can express my trust in Joanna – there’s not much more precious than Mom.
Ellen, Rancho, San Diego
After many years of a chronic UTI condition, repeated courses of antibiotics, and the same responses from traditional medicine, a friend encouraged me to visit Joanna. My condition started to improve immediately. I am so grateful to Joanna and her approach to recovery and wellness. My experience truly turned my life around.
CW
Joanna has provided outstanding and immeasurable personal care and concern for my individual health issues. Joanna’s knowledge, training and education have given her the ability to improve the health of her clients without using drugs and/or toxic materials. She is truly a remarkable and talented alternative nutritionist. Instead of filling my body with chemicals & toxins which negatively affected my body, I learned how to use food and nutrition as medicine.
Tabitha, ID
Joanna has worked on all 3 of my children for their digestive issues, as well as myself. She is incredibly thorough and gentle in her approach. She explains each step of the process and puts you at ease. I am so thankful for the time she invested in our family and the knowledge she has imparted as we strive to make our bodies healthy.

I am especially grateful to have found Joanna. Her wide ranging skill set and sensitivity are strongly supported by impressive credentials and degree’s. I have experienced personally, as well as observed others, success in resolving health issues.
