Tsur Restoration Wellness
Tsur: Hebrew root word for rock. (Matthew 7:25)
Restoration: The action of returning something to a former owner, place, or condition.
Wellness: The state of being healthy and the active pursuit of a healthy lifestyle, encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
Tsur Restoration Wellness was a revelation from God, birthed in the hardest season yet encountered by one of the owners. The season was challenging physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Many of us have experienced these difficult seasons, and often times with the pressing and crushing, it causes us to lean into our Solid Rock Jesus Christ. Through His death and resurrection, He restores us into a new man, through Himself only. Our mission is to restore individuals health, in the natural/ physical realm while helping restore them spiritually through the Solid Rock. The intention is to lead believers back to the original, intended state of health before the fall that can only be achieved when all 3 realms are addressed.
Health and Wellness were always God’s original intention for us, though due to the fall, we now sometimes suffer from “dis - ease.” As heirs of Christ, wellness is in our birthright although there is a faith component that we can not forget. He desires for all of us to live healthy and wholesome lives as a testament to Him and His Glory. Lives that are fulfilled according to His will in mind, body and Spirit.
This is our desire for you also!
Many common diseases and ailments are preventable through proper health, lifestyle, and nutrition. Our mission is to help you address the root causes of your health issues rather than just treating the symptoms. We take a holistic approach that encompasses all aspects of your health, including physical, emotional, and spiritual. We use a combination of lifestyle changes, nutrition approaches, supplements, diagnostic and lab testing as well as medications when necessary in your treatment plan.
We believe God created everything that we need, as every good and perfect gift is from above. We use the discernment of the Holy Spirit in combination with our medical training to help you achieve your optimal state of health. We hope you prayerfully consider Tsur Restoration Wellness on your health journey. We are excited to work with you!
MEET OUR TEAM
Chelsea Brown
MS, CRNP, Family Nurse Practitioner
Chelsea began her career in the healthcare field over 15 years ago. She completed her BSN at Towson University in 2014, and her Masters at Simmons University in 2020. After working in a variety of settings such as Palliative Care/ Hospice, Critical Care, Cardiology, Orthopedics, and Alternative Medicine to name a few, she found her ultimate love and passion for the Functional Medicine and Wellness space in 2018 after the birth of her third child.
Shortly after the birth of her youngest son she began to experience debilitating stomach pain, fatigue, brain fog, migraines, anxiety, rashes, and bloating with countless foods. While caring for a newborn, one year old, and three year old at the time, she pursued countless treatments that didn’t identify the root cause, or provide any relief. It wasn’t until much prayer, conducting her own research, a very lengthy elimination diet, and herbal supplements that her gut began to heal! From this experience, her passion for using food as medicine began.
The gift of holistic medicine continued to be a pillar to her life when she learned of her son's genetic mutation that caused his own health issues, and her father suffered from a nearly fatal stroke in 2022. By the grace of God not only did he survive, but is now working, driving, and living life like his medical team, who were absolutely phenomenal, never anticipated he would. It was during this season that God gave her the vision of Tsur Restoration Wellness!
Since then, she has taken several courses and certifications through organizations such as the Institute of Functional Medicine (IFM), National Academy of Sports Medicine, American College of Lifestyle Medicine to name a few. She wanted to learn about different ailments outside of what is taught in formal nursing/ medical education, as well as diagnostics, and treatments with nutrition, supplements, exercise, and lifestyle changes.
When she is not working on Tsur Restoration Wellness or her job in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit, Chelsea can often be found in the gym, homeschooling her three kids, or taking them to sports. She enjoys camping, spending time at the beach or the pool in the summer, cleaning, organizing, or coming up with a “house project” to do with her husband.
Ellen O’Connell
BSN-RN, Functional Health Nurse
Ellen’s passion for wellness was born out of a need to advocate for her father in his battle with COVID and cancer. It was during this pressing time of uncertainty, when no family or visitors were allowed at the bedside of dying patients, that she realized the degradation of medicine as a whole. It became very clear that the modern system of healthcare, insurance and pharmaceutical industries were all geared towards profiting off of sick people.
As a registered nurse working for years in a variety of settings such as pediatric, psychiatric, and urgent care medicine, she observed how simple recommendations such as vitamins and supplements were ignored by most physicians. Ellen quickly realized how our society has abandoned natural common sense health practices and replaced them with vaccines, prescription drug medications and inappropriate treatments. Many people are tired of depending on Big Pharma to solve all their problems only to be left with more medications and side effects. Ellen also personally struggled with gestational diabetes and diabetes type 2 after having her children, but was able to successfully address her insulin resistance using herbal supplements, nutrition, and exercise. It was here, where Ellen developed a passion for disease prevention and education from a functional medicine approach.
Ellen has received training in Functional Medicine at the Integrative Nurse Coach Academy. Her desire is to help others escape from a cycle of chronic disease and achieve wellness from a Biblical and holistic perspective. This means putting God first and seeking discernment on how to treat your body. She believes through early identification of health conditions and nutritional deficiencies, many diseases can be prevented.
Ellen is thrilled to be partnering with Chelsea to help others suffering from chronic health conditions. She believes together they can help you manage and possibly reverse your condition through diet, lifestyle changes, and appropriate nutrient supplementation. Natural, simple yet effective methods can have extraordinary results. Be encouraged to make a change today and restore your health with Tsur!
