Heartwood – About Heartwood

Founded in Evanston, Illinois, in 1999, Heartwood Center opened its doors in downtown Evanston with a community of twelve healing professionals. Since then, our center has grown into a new location with more than twice the space and more than forty practitioners and teachers. We offer a wide array of therapies and classes to provide a truly integrative approach to health.

Heartwood was conceived by founder Nancy Floy as a membership organization where practitioners could work together in a collaborative environment as they grew their practices. Sharing resources and supporting one another to increase business for all exemplifies Heartwood’s vision of an interdependent network of health and wellness specialists.

Our Mission

Heartwood is a community-based center committed to providing exceptional holistic health services in Evanston and the greater Chicagoland area. We provide a supportive and peaceful place for practitioners and teachers to grow their businesses; they in turn foster balance and harmony in the patients, clients and students who walk through our doors. We believe in an integrative approach to health that encompasses mind, body and spirit.
