Dr. Rebecca Warren

Watch the video

About

Dr. Rebecca Warren is a Functional Wellness Practitioner and Doctor of Chiropractic who specializes in women’s sex hormones, thyroid hormones, and healing after thyroidectomy.
At 19, Dr. Rebecca was diagnosed with Follicular Variant Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and had a complete thyroidectomy with high dose radiation- all of which was completely unnecessary. But she didn’t know what else to do. After having her thyroid removed, she suffered with hormone issues that Doctors would write off because all her labs looked “normal”. She suffered with depression, anxiety, weight loss resistance, and period issues with no help on how to get better. It wasn’t until she decided to draw a line in the sand that no doctor was going to know more about her body than her, did her health transform. She has spent the past decade and a half studying the literature, implementing protocols, using the most up to date functional labs and testing, and ancestral tools (like fasting and diet variation) to not only take back her health, but to help thousands of men and women to do the same.
Her goal is to help people avoid the unnecessary suffering she went through and help those that may be on a hopeless path right now. Dr. Rebecca practices with her husband in Chattanooga, TN and does virtual coaching worldwide. Their approach is simple but powerful: get to the cause, support the body, and trust and know that the body was created to heal itself.

About

I know firsthand what it’s like to watch someone you love suffer with their health and find no real answers. Growing up, I watched my mother see doctor after doctor, spend thousands of dollars, and spend countless sleepless nights in pain with no hope. I knew then that this was not the answer to true health.
After witnessing how ancient healing strategies radically transformed my mom’s health, I knew helping others regain their God-given health was my calling. By practicing under the principle that the body is created to heal and is intelligently designed to function at an optimal level, my wife and I have built one of the largest health and wellness clinics in Chattanooga and have helped lead thousands of men, women, and kids back to optimal health.
I received my degree in Exercise Physiology from David Lipscomb University, where I also competed at a high level on the soccer team. I then graduated with my Doctor of Chiropractic from Life University in Marietta, GA.
