a little about me

I'm Alex — an Ayurvedic Practitioner based in Arden, NC seeing clients virtually all over the U.S. I specialize in completely personalized cleanses and deep metabolic resets. I studied with Dr. Vasant Lad at the Ayurvedic Institute and served at his side as the main practitioner of his panchakarma healing resort before building Lilananda Ayurveda.

What drew me to Ayurveda—and continues to—is how deeply it reflects the natural world and the same rhythms within each of us. Working with Ayurveda can feel like remembering something you’ve always known—a return to what is natural and easeful. It meets you where you are, honors the body, mind, and soul as a whole, and offers a way of living that supports lasting change and longevity.

"I feel very heard and held — not every health practitioner provides the level of care that you do."
