Gloria Treister

Gloria Treister, a healthcare visionary, has worked in and studied about health and wellness for over 30 years. She recognized early on that it made better sense to take a proactive approach to one’s health rather than be reactive. She became a powerful advocate for wellness and risked her personal savings to bring about change.
 Gloria has been a pioneer in promoting wellness since the early 1980’s. As the Owner/CEO of Treister Physical Therapy (TPT), she began us-ing the knowledge of her physical and occupational therapists for edu-cating clients in prevention and self care. In 1997, Gloria sold TPT to NovaCare Rehabilitation and worked for them for 6 years. In 2003, after years of research, she founded Wellness Evolution and began creating unique models for delivering a patient centered, func-tional medicine approach to health, focusing on a person’s unique bio-chemical individuality and getting to the root cause of a problem, rather than treating symptoms. She has been empowering people ever since through unique services and comprehensive programs. She partners with HR professionals at companies, helping them decrease expense, reduce absenteeism and increase employee productivity and job satisfaction. Through her popu-lar Wellness 101 classes, she begins the empowerment process help-ing her students understand how to take charge of their own wellbeing.
