With a personal cancer experience and a passionate interest in enhancing quality of life for all persons, Nancy left her executive management position to advance her career in wellness in 1995. Described as a pioneer by colleagues and friends, and following her diagnoses with breast cancer, she began to focus her work on serving persons living with cancer, pain and extreme stress.

Nancy is a well-seasoned massage therapist, energy worker and Life Touch by AVIANA practitioner who sold her spa to focus on her essential oils and teach her personal modality to wellness practitioners, spas and health care professionals throughout the country.

In retirement, Nancy continues to produce her pure essential oil line.

"Nancy Schmitt brings much more than skill to the healing art of touch. She is a calming presence who emanates peace and speaks with the authority of wisdom. She is a gifted, wise and wonderful woman, uniquely talented and qualified more than anyone I could imagine to train in oncologic touch. I recommend her with great enthusiasm." Donna Testa, M.D.

What radiates from you tickles my soul; thank you.”

“Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny–he has something to fulfill, some message has to be delivered, some work has to be completed. You are not here accidentally–you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you. The whole intends to do something through you”.

Osho

“Still, what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled— to cast aside the weight of facts and maybe even to float a little above this difficult world.”
