Welcome to the Wellness By Design podcast. I believe every one of us has the power to achieve optimal wellness not by reacting to the world around us but by intentionally designing a life based on what our own body needs. This show is for people who want to relieve pain and inflammation naturally by addressing root causes, rather than masking symptoms and by tapping into the wisdom of their body, mind and spirit. And I want to give you the tools to help make that happen.©️2025 Alternative & Complementary Medicine Hygiene & Healthy Living

    Hi there! I am Jane Hogan, the Wellness Engineer, and the host of Wellness By Design. I spent 30 years designing foundations for buildings until the pain and inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis led me to hang up my hard hat and follow my heart.

I help them release pain naturally so they can become the best version of themselves.
