Meet Megan

Quantum Health Concierge, Certified Yoga Instructor, WELL AP

Our bodies are untapped sources of renewable energy. Trained properly, the body and breath serve as steadfast conduits to an infinitely restorative resource. Yoga reshapes our brains and bodies to become a conditioned body-mind that moves through life on a path of ease. A regular movement practice such as yoga, promotes greater wellbeing, more restorative sleep, harmonious engagement, and effortless flow.

Relying on my daily yoga and meditation practice in order to sustain career and family life while managing chronic Lyme Disease was the genesis of yogaXdesign--a collection of practices to buoy wellbeing and enhance creativity. I became a certified yoga instructor in 2017 and began sharing these practices for daily creative renewal with deadline-driven professionals.

I studied under Suddha Weixler at Chicago Yoga Center, and over the years, I've broadened my knowledge of yoga through trainings with Manju Jois, Rod Stryker, Gabriel Halpern and Desiree Rumbaugh. I enjoy cello, watersports and exploring new healing modalities. I live in the Spirit Waters of Wauconda on Potawatomi Land with kids and pets who inspire me to do better every day.

Meet Hussen

Doctor of Chiropractic, Master of Science in Acupuncture

Hussen is a chiropractor and acupuncturist who graduated from National University of Health Sciences in 2023. Hussen comes from a family of acupuncturists and was exposed to the miracles of alternative medicine from a young age. Hussen’s grandfather was an acupuncturist and growing up Hussen played fullback and offensive lineman on the football team and would be subject to constant trauma from the physical game of football. He would receive constant acupuncture and cupping therapy from his grandfather after any painful game or injury that he received throughout his career, and that is where he fell in love with the power of acupuncture and its role in pain management and sports medicine. He initially studied at National to receive his acupuncture degree and while he was at the school, also fell in love with all the other programs, and received his chiropractic degree in order to receive the western medicine knowledge needed to help patients through the combination of eastern and western medicine. Hussen’s specialty is in pain management, but he has discovered the power of acupuncture in helping patients with all sorts of functional problems, such as sleep, digestion, fertility, and stress management. In his free time, Hussen also likes to cheer on his favorite football teams like the Chicago Bears and the Ohio State Buckeyes (his alma mater), play video games, and go on skiing trips in the winter.
