Meet Carla and Ronnie: 

Carla Brock-Smith is a registered nurse and board certified in holistic nursing.  She has also acquired certification in Guided Imagery and will be graduating with her Masters Degree in Nursing Education in December 2010.  Carla's personal and academic endeavors have always focused on the science of the mind-body connection. Her educational goals are to teach Holistic Nursing thus increase the quality of nursing care in traditional healthcare settings. Carla's primary role with Energy Concepts is to educate clients on basic biophysical and holistic (mind-body-spirit) truths about the body and how to apply natural approaches to achieve optimal health.

Ronnie Smith's clinical expertise is an ideal balance in this joint venture to help others achieve health. His personal experience overcoming chronic disease and obesity and his many hours of independent study have enabled Ronnie to understand an individual's unique biochemical deficiencies and metabolic needs. He has merged metabolic typing analysis, glucose tolerance, and digestive function testing to assess one's current state of health at the cell level.  His recommended enzyme/herb and dietary regimens as well as energy modalities are cornerstone to clients' overwhelming success in achieving optimal health and overcoming chronic conditions.

Carla and Ronnie’s personal interest in natural health and their shared desire to help others marked the beginning of Energy Concepts in 2003.  Providentially meeting Dr. Robert Preston in 2004 and experiencing his personal teaching provided the scientific and business foundation that launched this enterprise.  Energy Concepts started in Harrison, AR in a one room clinic until it was relocated to Springfield, MO in 2005.
