About Carson Valley Wellness: Your Partner in Holistic Health

Meet Susan Schafer: Your Trusted Naturopath in Northern Nevada

Welcome to Carson Valley Wellness! I’m Susan Schafer, a naturopath with a PhD in Naturopathic Medicine, dedicated to helping individuals and families in Northern Nevada achieve better health through natural, non-invasive solutions. For over seven years, I’ve had the privilege of serving the greater Reno area, providing personalized care to help my patients reach their wellness goals.

At Carson Valley Wellness, I offer Advanced Allergy Therapeutics (AAT), a precision-based, non-invasive therapy that helps alleviate symptoms associated with allergies and sensitivities. Rather than targeting the immune system, AAT works directly with the major organ systems involved in overreacting to harmless substances. This drug-free and painless approach retrains the body’s response to triggers like pollen, pet dander, food sensitivities, and environmental irritants, providing long-lasting symptom relief without the need for avoidance or medication.

As a practitioner, I bring compassion, expertise, and personalized care to every appointment. My training at Bastyr University and years of hands-on experience allow me to provide safe and effective treatments designed to meet the unique needs of each patient. Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, managing sensitivities, or looking for ways to improve your overall well-being, I’m here to guide you toward your health goals.
