Hi! I'm Dr. Nia Spicer-Thomas, a board-certified family nurse practitioner with over 10 years of health care experience. At the age of 16, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I was plagued by debilitating fatigue, pain, and inflammation. There were limited treatment options for this relatively new disease which led me to seek natural and alternative options. In addition to my fibromyalgia, in 2016 I began suffering from chronic Bacterial Vaginosis (BV), Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) and yeast infections. For 3 years, I was stuck in what seemed like an endless cycle. It was an extremely frustrating time that affected my confidence and caused depression and weight gain. I tried every remedy I could find, but when nothing worked, I decided to develop my own solutions. With my medical knowledge, clinical research skills and love for natural medicine I created products that actually work for myself and others. This journey has led to the inception of pHembiotics, our supplement brand and Olive Branch Total Wellness, an integrative medicine telehealth practice. My mission is to help others battling with similar issues to get to the root cause, heal and find peace. In my spare time, I enjoy being with my family, traveling, and advocating for women's reproductive rights.
