PRACTICE CLOSURE
1 May 2026
As a patient of Self Empowered Healing, you have given me the privilege and honor of contributing to your well-being. So it is with sadness that i let you know i will be retiring from Self Empowered Healing as of 31 July 2026. i look forward to creating a new personal lifestyle of well-being and the adventure of graceful aging.
i will be available to see you for a final consultation of 30 or 60 minutes on a limited schedule through the end of July. If you are already scheduled for a visit after that, please contact me if you would like to be moved up to my limited openings in July. If you wish to cancel a current appointment, please let me know as soon as possible so i can support those who still want care. If you have any medications you want refilled between now and 31 July 2026 please request them through the portal. If you have been seen in the last six months and labs are up to date, i can give you refills for another six months if appropriate so that you have time to find another physician. As an established patient, you will continue to be able to purchase high quality supplements at 15% discount through Fullscript. https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/jpizzino?preview=true
Your medical records will continue to be available to you through our Charm electronic health record portal https://phr2.charmtracker.com/login.sas until 31 December 2026. i strongly recommend you make digital or paper copies of any information in the portal, including laboratory reports, so that you can share these with your other healthcare providers. If you are still looking for more Functional Medicine care, i can highly recommend Keegan Ziemba, MD or Matthew Taylor, MD of Tegrity Health https://tegrityhealth.com and Subhashini Katumuluwa, MD of Before The Script https://www.beforethescript.com/ . i have worked with all these fine Functional Medicine physicians previously, and they are licensed in the states in which i have seen patients. To find other Functional Medicine physicians in North Carolina, i suggest you use the doctor finder at North Carolina Integrative Medicine Society. https://ncintegrative.org/directory.
It is with extreme appreciation that i thank you for sharing your health journey and your life with me. i continue to hold you dear in my memories of over 50 years as a healer. I close with a small prayer for you in the form of a question for yourself:
“What is the most loving thing I can do for myself, right now?”
Sincerely,
Joanne (“JP”) Pizzino, MD, MPH, FACOEM
WHAT IS BODY TUNING MENTORSHIP? click here for YouTube video
Mentorship is focused on guiding you to create a lifestyle of wellness and sustainability, rather than “fixing” a symptom or medical problem. It is particularly focused on creating a personal environment and mind-body-spirit wellbeing to support your journey through conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, or autoimmune disorders. It also supports “getting back on track” if you feel “off” or optimization if you are otherwise well.
HOW IS BODY TUNING MENTORSHIP DIFFERENT FROM A DOCTOR'S TREATMENT?
Committing to a Body Tuning Mentorship is not like a doctor’s visit, nor a series of treatments. It is a full encounter, no-holds barred engagement with your own personalized version of what it means to be fully alive. Instead of parts of your energy being drained off to deal with struggles for survival, productivity, approval and belonging, you are able to focus your vitality on creating your best life. Your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health are not separate from the rest of your life; they are intertwined in a grand blossoming of the Authentic You.
Here is an example of things you can learn in the mentorship.

REASONS TO SEEK MENTORSHIP
I want to look and feel my best, but I am not sure where to start.
I want proven health solutions from someone I can actually trust.
I am committed to optimizing my health, but I want evidence-based protocols.
How do I read and manage the signals my body gives for optimum vitality and prevention?
In an era of information overload, how do I determine what recommendations have adequate research backing? What supplements are worth taking? How do I interpret laboratory tests in the context of fitness rather than “lack of disease”?
What are the best ways to respond to my unique health needs and fully inhabit my greatest self?
I want to look and feel my best. I need guidance to manage and prevent conditions that run in my family.
I tend to start and stop healthy practices and need help with more consistency and reaching goals permanently
