About Isaiah

Hello everyone, My name's Isaiah, but you, you can call me "Zay."

Helping others, being a part of something bigger than myself, and fighting against pain (in all its forms). For as long as I can remember these have been my lifelong passions, which I've chased after since entering academia and the workforce thereafter. At first the answer was simple, inspired by the nurses that cared for my mother during her battle with cancer, I entered college as a pre-nursing major. Later to become a nursing major at Winston-Salem State University. Like a sponge to water I tediously gathered as much information as humanly possible. I wanted to know everything: every drug, every disease, every method of treatment, any and all things medical, anatomical, and physiological. All in an effort so that one day I might be able to take away the pain of every individual that I encountered. However, during my clinical career I found that somewhere along the line, western medicine had synonymized the words "solution" and "education," with "prescriptions." More often than not, patients were sent home with prescriptions, without solutions or the education to help themselves or at least the means to seek out the proper help. Soon after, I re-entered the college arena to complete my course of study for medical and neuromuscular massage therapy and to begin my journey towards helping the body help itself. This is the beauty of Living Well Balanced and what called me to join their family. As an integrative medical center, rather than picking a side we combine both eastern and western styles of medicine to offer not only the conventional and complementary, but to cater to the specifications of the patient.

Someone once asked me: "Isaiah at the end of the day how do you want people to know you? What do you want them to think when they hear your name?" I want to be someone whom after interacting with, you leave feeling better than when you arrived. Helping you is how I fulfill my purpose.
