What Our Patients Say
Lacy’s Story
Since the age of 16, I have always had problems with my cycles. I was diagnosed with endometriosis and ovarian cysts. My Dr. put me on birth control to control the severe cramping and regulate my periods. Several doctors told me it would be nearly impossible for me to conceive children due to all of my “problems”. At age 19 I had a cyst that had ruptured on my ovary. Once again, my Dr. told me I probably would never be able to have children. I stayed on birth control for nine years. As I learned about the effects of birth control and started living a more healthy lifestyle, I decided to get off the birth control. Shortly after, my body became very confused. I hadn’t had a cycle for nine months. My face started breaking out in cystic acne. I started growing facial hair. My stomach became severely bloated. I had bouts of PMS, but would never start my cycle. I was absolutely miserable. My self esteem was at an all time low, I didn’t even want to go out in public!
I started seeing Dr. Wards in hopes that she could get me back on track. We did a saliva test, and the results were shocking. My hormones were so high out of range, she said she was amazed that I was functioning and able to walk into her clinic!!!! We began a year and a half of treatment.
I came EVERY week and religiously took my supplements. I was determined to heal myself with Dr. Wards’ help and guidance. We had made a lot of headway, but I was starting to get discouraged. Dr. Wards assured me we would get through this. Shortly after, I had a regular cycle THREE months in a row. I was so happy! But then, the fourth month… nothing, the fifth month… nothing. I thought to myself, “Well, here we go again.” Dr. Wards asked, “Could you be pregnant?” I said, “Absolutely not, I can’t get pregnant.”
Dr. Wards did some muscle testing without telling me what she was testing for. She insisted that I go home and take a test! I was a little irritated since I KNEW I wasn’t. It happened to be my 11 year anniversary that night. I really just wanted to get home and have a lovely dinner with my partner. I stopped and got a test, as instructed. After my lovely dinner, I stomped upstairs to take the test. Instantly, the test read positive! I could not believe my eyes!
The next day I saw Dr. Wards, she told me that my muscle tested positive for being pregnant, that was why she was so insistent that I take a test.
So, as I am writing this, I am six months pregnant and thrilled about the miracle that is about to come into my life. All I have ever wanted is to have children and my whole life I have been told I would never get to. I feel truly blessed to be carrying this child.
I feel so much love and gratitude toward Dr. Wards. I feel this would never have been possible without her help. She never gave up on me, even when it seemed I was making no progress. She is so caring and compassionate. She truly cares about her patients and is dedicated to their wellness. She is not only our primary Dr., she is our friend”.
We love you Dr. Wards!

Cindi: From Bedridden to Band Mom
Before: Cindi was inflamed with undiagnosed and untreated hypothyroidism, fibromyalgia, Lyme Disease, and Autoimmune Thyroid (Hashimoto’s). She was on pharmaceuticals and having seizures, IBS, PCOS… & barely able to get out of bed.
She was prescribed opioids and benzodiazepines for insomnia & mood disorders, anticonvulsants for seizures, and wore a CPAP for sleep apnea. She was diagnosed and treated with pharmaceuticals for:
– IBS
– PCOS
– Mood Disorders/Depression
– Epilepsy (she having seizures)
– Fibromyalagia
– Chronic Fatigue (she was barely able to get out of bed.)
She was too tired to make it to her son’s games. She took so much time off of work, she lived in constant fear of losing her job as a paralegal.
After working with Infinity Wellness Center: Pharmaceutical-free, Hashimoto’s and Lyme in remission. She is now able to attend her son’s away games and stay up late enough to be a chaperone!
“Although I was diagnosed with Lyme, Hashimoto’s & EBV, I’m eating cleaner, instructing a fitness classes and exercising 4/5x a week, working, sleeping better, taking supplements, getting regular adjustments, acupuncture, massage therapy and seeing a therapist was crucial to achieving optimal health and recovery.
I had 9 cavities and gum disease. I was able to reverse insulin resistance, and the cavities. I still had to wear braces for 2.5 years and get skin grafting on the tops and bottoms of my gums but I think with all the pharmaceutical use, poor health took a beating on my gums and teeth.
I followed your recommended protocols, dietary restrictions, lab work, and was diligent about seeing you as scheduled to tweak my protocol as needed. I achieved success at maintaining health by keeping regular apts throughout the years, you listened to my concerns, challenges, and did your research and continued to communicate with me, always providing written literature, referrals to other specialists specific to my needs (hearing loss, therapy, books, hydrocolonics, infrared sauna), and invested your time in me.”
Lindsey’s Story
Lindsey came to us unable to stand up and walk to the bathroom without her heart rate increasing to the point of her falling over. She was too exhausted to care for her sons, hormonal Imbalances that left her in bed some days.
“Last year we came to Durango and went to Purgatory to tube with the boys. My body couldn’t handle the altitude and had my poor heart going at 230 bpm when all I did was stand up. I had to spend the entire time sitting at the bottom of the hill.
It’s really frustrating when your body doesn’t work and your kids don’t understand why you can’t walk up a hill.”
We found and corrected the underlying causes:
“This year we went to Durango and I made memories with my babies. I didn’t have to sit out. I wouldn’t be able to do any of it without my amazing doctor Tenesha. We are forever grateful for her guidance and thank God everyday that I was able to find her and for helping guide me through this Lyme life.”
I’ve been seeing Dr. Wards for almost two years now and it has been the best investment I’ve ever made in myself! I came in with numerous concerns – chronic neck pain, digestive issues, hormonal issues, trouble sleeping, headaches…it was a very long list. Over the course of my treatment, she uncovered and treated the root of my issues vs. treating my symptoms with medication. I haven’t felt this good, both physically and mentally, in close to 20 years. She listens, she asks questions, she cares. She knows that each patient is a unique case and can’t be treated like every other. She requires a thorough initial interview and follows up with a personalized treatment plan that may include chiropractic care, nutrition guidance, acupuncture, natural hormone treatments, supplements, etc. I received all of the these treatments and my experience has been nothing but positive. I would not feel this good if I had taken ‘traditional’ medical advice. I’m so thankful for my experience with Dr. T! My body, mind and soul are better because of her. Mahalo!
I am so grateful I was forced to see Dr. Tenesha by my mother in law. I say “forced” because I had 99% given up on attempting to fix my health problems because Dr after Dr would give me the typical “It’s all in your head”, “It’s allergies”, or “Change your diet” answer. And even worse, perform all kinds of expensive tests. Don’t get me wrong I have a lot of respect for Western Medicine but it just wasn’t for me in my particular issues. Dr. Tenesha listened to each one of my symptoms and with the 1% of faith left in me I started treatment. Only after one month I already feel like a completely new person and almost ALL of my many symptoms have disappeared! I feel like the old me again, energetic and full of life! (Not to mention I am loosing a few Lbs too) so if you are having any health issues I highly recommend you to visit Dr. Tenesha Wards… sooner rather than later.
Meet Dr. Lauryn
“Infinity Wellness Center guided me in healing my body. Within only a couple months, I was already feeling back to myself again and have since pursued functional medicine and nutrition myself–now working as a practitioner in the field. I highly recommend Dr. Ward’s practice for helping you get to the ROOT of your health dysfunctions–not band-aiding it.”
Dr. Wards is a healer pure and simple. She listens to me and works with me. She doesn’t talk down to me and makes use of my ideas if they make sense. She tells you what she can and can’t do. She recommends other health practitioners if needed. She only gives you the medicine you actually needs. She works on the most important issues and remembers the less important ones later on.
She works in concert with my other health practitioners. She is always studying and learning new things to help her patients. She is willing to see me at 9:30am on patient days and occasionally on Saturdays. She calls and follows up and takes the time to actually talk to me. She understands my health care is my responsibility and she helps me handle the responsibility in a very responsible way.
After being diagnosed with thyroid disease and adrenal fatigue, I thought I was just destined to be dog tired for the rest of my life. DOG TIRED. I needed a solution, and I didn’t think it could hurt to see what the folks at Infinity Wellness had to say. They took the time to talk with me about how I have been feeling, and about some recent tests I had run. On the first visit, they had me out the door with a plan. In the first month, I felt my energy starting to come back, my face completely cleared up, and I even noticed some weight loss! I just had my second appointment, and again… I left with a plan! It is a really good feeling to know there is light at the end of this exhausting tunnel. Cheers to the Infinity Wellness team!
