MEET KAREN RIDER
Karen Rider, NBC-HWC, has been in the health and wellness field for over twenty years. She is a National Board Certified Health Coach (NBC-HWC) as well as a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach and Certified Ayurveda Wellness Counselor. Additionally, she is an E-RYT® 500 Certified Yoga Instructor and Meditation Instructor. Her long-time passion has been to guide and help people discover their innate ability to heal and live a life of good health, well-being and joy through a holistic health approach.
Karen learned through her yoga and meditation teachings that there is no “one size fits all.” We are all uniquely different and need to have our health and wellbeing looked at on a more personal level, and for this reason she was drawn to Ayurveda and the principles of our unique constitutions. She learned how to customize her diet and lifestyle for her individual “Dosha” and it made a great impact on her digestion and energy. She also learned to utilize the tools of yoga, meditation and breath techniques to feel more grounded and centered. Ayurveda’s focus on prevention of disease was very impactful as well.
Karen furthered her studies by becoming certified in Functional Medicine Health Coaching. She is grateful to have had the opportunity to learn both Ayurvedic and Functional Medicine and share these practices that address the “whole” person to not only heal, but to sustain lasting change. She truly enjoys guiding people to feel empowered to make lifestyle changes and create an optimal life of vitality and wellness. She will be your guide and support you to discover your innate gifts to heal and live your best life!

TESTIMONIALS
Dr. V. is a warm and compassionate individual. She is well versed in several forms of medicine. That is why I like her because she can see things from different angles. She is very wise for her years.
I highly recommend Dr. Vazirani. It was so refreshing to spend so much time with a doctor. She recommended a number of tests for me, and spent a significant amount of time going through all the results with me to review our next steps. She’s so knowledgeable and friendly. Finally! A doctor who can help me feel healthier!
What a night! My sister and I found your educational event about functional foods super informative. Your upbeat personality and can-do spirit was inspiring. Thank you for being a part of our health journey and helping us navigate the benefits of functional foods.
I have known Dr Minal Vazirani for several years and would recommend her to my family and friends. She is an outstanding physician with profound knowledge of conventional and alternative medicine. She treated me for my chronic insomnia issues, using safe, natural and holistic approach with no side effects.
Thank You Dr Vazirani !
