Meet the Practitioner
Expert guidance grounded in science and structured methodology.
Ann L. Johnson developed the Nine Forces Framework through extensive deep research into recurring patterns of system breakdown in adults. Rather than treating symptoms individually, this approach focuses on source-cause analysis by examining how interdependent systems fail across mitochondrial, genetic, and microbiome function. A central component is deep patient history research, involving a comprehensive review of lifestyle, symptoms, lab data, and long-term patterns to identify hidden dysfunctions often missed in conventional approaches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find clear answers to common questions about our programs, process, and how we help restore long-term health and vitality.
When symptoms continue despite previous treatments, supplements, lifestyle changes, or other approaches, it can be difficult to know what to try next. WildHeart Wellness takes a broader, systems-oriented approach to understanding your individual situation. Your symptoms, health history, lifestyle, previous health information, and relevant testing can be considered together to help identify areas that may warrant further investigation and determine an appropriate path forward.
Normal test results do not always explain every symptom a person may be experiencing. If you continue to have concerns despite previous evaluations, WildHeart Wellness can take a broader look at your individual health history, symptoms, lifestyle, and available health information. Where appropriate, this may help identify areas that deserve further consideration and determine whether additional assessment or personalized support may be useful.
Ongoing fatigue can have many possible contributors, and healthy habits do not necessarily explain every situation. Sleep quality, stress, nutrition, activity, medications, medical conditions, metabolic factors, and other issues can all influence how a person feels. WildHeart Wellness looks at your individual history and patterns rather than assuming that the same solution will work for everyone.
WildHeart Wellness is designed around a deeper, systems-oriented assessment rather than starting with a generic protocol. The approach considers the individual’s history, symptoms, lifestyle, available health information, and relevant biological factors together. Depending on the situation, this may include functional assessments or specialized testing to help inform a personalized wellness strategy.
The best starting point depends on your symptoms, health history, goals, and the depth of assessment or support you need. WildHeart Wellness offers different levels of care, from The Body Whisperer as a focused entry-point assessment to The Molecular Detective for more advanced investigation and The Metabolic Rebuild Protocol for a more structured metabolic and energy-focused program. If you are unsure which option fits your situation, a consultation can help determine the most appropriate starting point.
Not everyone needs the same type or amount of testing. The appropriate testing depends on your individual concerns, health history, previous results, and the information needed to guide your care. WildHeart Wellness offers laboratory, gut-health, and DNA/genetic testing, but testing should be considered based on individual circumstances rather than automatically applied as part of every program.
Your first consultation is intended to establish a detailed understanding of your concerns, history, goals, and available information. From there, the appropriate next step may involve personalized wellness recommendations, further assessment, relevant testing, or enrollment in a more comprehensive program. The goal is to create a structured path based on your individual situation rather than immediately applying a predetermined protocol.
There is no single timeline that applies to everyone. The pace of progress can depend on the nature and duration of your concerns, your individual circumstances, the strategies being used, and how your situation changes over time. WildHeart Wellness emphasizes ongoing oversight and optimization, allowing your plan to be reviewed and adjusted as appropriate rather than treating the initial plan as a fixed solution.
WildHeart Wellness offers different levels of care depending on the depth of assessment and support required. Current programs include The Body Whisperer, The Molecular Detective, and The Metabolic Rebuild Protocol, each with a different scope and investment. Some services, such as specialized laboratory testing, may be separate from the program investment, so the exact inclusions should be reviewed before beginning care.
