Our Mission
Willow Star Haven’s founder, Kimberly Kirschner, LDN, CNS (Licensed Clinical Nutritionist and Certified Nutrition Specialist), LMT (Licensed Massage Therapist) believes strongly that a healthy lifestyle can help prevent or manage illness. To this end, Willow Star Haven promotes programs that emphasize activity, a diet that is whole-food-plant-based, the limitation of toxins in our surrounding environment and proper stress management.
Willow Star Haven offers the following services and programs:
- Cancer coaching: In addition to offering health, nutrition and fitness coaching for cancer patients, we will assist with exploring evidence-based integrative therapy options. Radical Remission workshops are also offered, based on the best-selling book by Dr. Kelly Turner, Ph.D.: “Radical Remission: Surviving Cancer Against All Odds. The 9 Key Factors That Can Make A Real Difference.”
- Food for Life training, a direct service nutrition education program of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM). This research based program has been designed by physicians, nutrition experts, certified diabetes educators and registered dieticians and features 4 curricula detailed in the Nutrition tab.
- Health and Lifestyle coaching in group settings, corporate settings, Lunch and Learn Programs, or one on one.
- Fitness Coaching using Powerplate, Foundation Training and other fitness strategies.
- Pet Therapy in hospital settings and nursing homes.
- There is no fee for Health and Fitness Coaching, though donations to the Willow Star Haven Charitable Foundation are gratefully accepted. Food For Life programs can be scheduled with a minimum of 8 people or a minimum donation to cover food costs.
Our Goal
Beyond existing facilities and classes, Willow Star Haven plans to expand with the development of:
- An Integrative Wellness Center featuring nutrition and fitness services including a production/teaching kitchen, a fitness studio and conference rooms.
- A “Wellness Hotel” near a major cancer center, offering supportive services to patients and their families.
The Willow Star Haven Charitable Foundation is a 501(c) (3) not-for-profit charitable foundation. At this time we are actively seeking property in the Orlando area suitable for the development of our Wellness Center and Wellness Hotel. We are also researching funding sources and seeking corporate sponsors and development team members to assist with one or more components of the foundation project.
There is no fee for health and fitness coaching, though donations to the Willow Star Haven Charitable Foundation are gratefully accepted. Food For Life programs can be scheduled with a minimum of 8 people and a minimum donation to cover food costs.
