F.L.O.W. Wellness Center: 2 Hidden Lane

A hidden gem on Hidden Lane! This warm, welcoming little house is a wonderful yoga studio, and has been a great resource for my 8-yr old daughter. The Mindful Monkeys 6-week series for kids (which is free - how generous!!) is something she leaves from feeling happy and centered. Mykal is a peaceful, happy human and a perfect person to lead a class like that for kids.

I've always told myself, "When I retire, I'm going to get into the best shape of my life." When I retired in 2024, my transformation started. I have had high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes for more than a decade. my A1c was more than 7, and I felt lethargic most of the time. I was able to lose 20 lbs., but could not sustain the weight loss. I attended a presentation that nutritionist Tommy Markov from F.L.O.W. Wellness Center gave about how to improve your health through proper nutrition. I was impressed by the health gains that he had made by "practicing what he preached". Shortly after the presentation, I started meeting with Tommy once a month. By offering me insight into the role that good nutrition makes in overall health, he helped me to make steady progress toward achieving my health and wellness goals. Since working with Tommy, I am no longer "stuck" in old patterns. He taught me how to better regulate my blood sugar, which resulted in my A1c dropping to 6.3. My bloodwork has improved in all areas. My cardiologist and endocrinologist are both impressed by my progress. My emotion regulation has also improved and I have started losing weight and gaining muscle mass. Tommy gives thorough explanations of what changes need to be made and (more importantly) why. Increased insight about nutrition motivates me to reap the benefits of making impactful changes to my diet and exercise routine. Following our sessions, he sends me literature regarding topics relevant to my needs such as blood sugar regulation strategies, recipes and meal planning for diabetics and anti-inflammatory foods, recipes and meal plans. the readings strengthen my understanding of what we discuss during sessions and motivate me to make incremental changes that will ensure continued progress toward my wellness goals. Tommy's continuous positive feedback and "progress not perfection" philosophy allow for our successful collaboration. My only regret is that I waited until retiring to start working with him. I believe that he can help people of any age reach and sustain their wellness goals. .

I absolutely love everything about FLOW Wellness Center. The mission, the staff and the philosophy is nothing short of inspiring. The holistic approach to wellness from the inside out is what I was looking for and FLOW Wellness provides its patients with this. Thank you to Jamie Nichols and her team for all that you do! Kindest Regards!
