Claudia Arregoytia is a functional & lifestyle medicine practitioner, writer, dancer, researcher, herbalist, speaker, yoga teacher, wellness & longevity advocate, lifelong learner, and lover of life who sees health differently than many medical providers.
During her family medicine residency, she was trained to prioritize hospital & clinic efficiency goals instead of guiding in developing wellness. It was encouraged to treat with pharmaceuticals because it's faster, easier, and cheaper to prescribe than address the underlying issue. She became disillusioned, overburdened, frustrated, and stressed, eventually becoming burned out. The rigors of residency caused Claudia to develop serious chronic illnesses that forced her to take a break from her training. Through her experience as a patient with complex illnesses, she had first-hand experience with the limitations of this medical system. She knew there had to be a better way.
After transforming her health, Claudia founded The Brilliant Health Institute, through which she pioneered a revolutionary approach to patient-centered health. Claudia guides her clients through her longevity programs so that they are empowered to achieve their best personal health. Claudia understands that "Vibrant Health Comes from Within" and believes in the power of the body to restore health and balance under a healing foundation.
Claudia is a seeker of light and a manifestor of love. Her superpower is her intuition, and finding the most effective health information for the best possible outcomes. She uses this gift to help transform the lives of her clients. She is committed to improving the healthcare system, activating internal healing, and supporting optimal health & longevity through functional and lifestyle medicine.
She has devoted her life to the betterment of health care for all. She stands for innovation, practicality & accountability, and against quick fixes and outdated information. Claudia leads by example and inspires others to take ownership of their health through education and self-love.
