Welcome to Whole Story Wellness
Experience a Wholistic Approach to Health
Whole Story Wellness in Waco, Texas, takes a wholistic approach to health, combining functional medicine, alternative therapies, and spiritual counseling. At our integrative medicine clinic, we focus on treating root causes, not just symptoms, to provide personalized, comprehensive care.
Conditions We Treat
Wholistic, root-cause care that supports your body, mind, and spirit for lasting change.
Weight Loss, Metabolism & Hormone Health
We treat weight loss as a medical and wholistic issue—not a willpower problem. Our team looks at thyroid and hormone balance, insulin resistance, inflammation, gut health, sleep, and stress, along with emotional eating patterns, body image, and spiritual identity. Care may include functional medicine protocols, labs, Christian health and nutrition coaching, personal training, somatic and nervous system support, and biblical counseling so you can pursue a healthier body in a way that aligns with your faith and long-term wellbeing.
Trauma, Grief & Betrayal Wounds
Trauma and grief often show up as real physical symptoms—chronic pain, fatigue, gut issues, and sleep disruption—along with emotional distress, hypervigilance, or numbness. We combine trauma-informed biblical counseling, nervous system–based techniques (such as somatic exercise and bilateral stimulation), and supportive therapies to help the body release stored stress, the mind process safely, and the spirit rebuild trust and hope.
Gut Issues, Food Sensitivities & Autoimmunity
Digestive problems, bloating, skin flares, and autoimmune symptoms are often signs of immune dysregulation and gut imbalance. Our approach evaluates diet, microbiome health, allergies/sensitivities (including NAET and iMAET), and systemic inflammation, while also supporting the emotional and spiritual toll chronic illness can take. We integrate functional medicine, nutrition coaching, detox-supportive therapies, and faith-centered care to help calm the body and strengthen resilience.
Anxiety & Depression
We look at anxiety and depression through a wholistic lens—nervous system regulation, hormones, sleep, inflammation, and gut health, alongside your thought life, trauma history, and spiritual burdens. Your care may include functional medicine consults, mental health and somatic coaching, and biblical counseling to help calm the body, clear the mind, and restore hope.
Real People. Real Results
Before meeting Ginger, I had been trying on and off again to lose the 20 plus pounds I had put on in less than a year. I had tried intermittent fasting, low-carb diet and exercise. However, I was having a hard time being consistent with anything and very down on myself. I would just get more frustrated when I didn’t see the scale budge.
I visited with my Doctor’s office and they recommended meeting with Ginger. Originally I thought I was going in for a consultation about nutrition and I’d meet with her maybe once or twice. It turned out to be so much more.
I first met with Ginger a little over a year ago. Right off, I knew she was a good match for me. Her gentle approach and listening were exactly what I needed. I had not realized how the amount of stress I had been under had been affecting my health and in turn the weight I was trying to take off. She started off slowly with me which was perfect. I got back into enjoying walks with my dogs and friends. I was not willing to get on the scale those first few visits and she was totally okay with that.
Ginger continually gives me tips and tricks that help. A great example was getting sunlight first thing in the morning and realizing the importance of good sleep. All of these things really have helped improve my mood. I started to make small changes to my diet too.
As a result of a series of childhood traumas, and as a young adult, I have found myself toting around unwanted baggage that has had severe repercussions on the way I live every single day.
As a result of a series of childhood traumas, and as a young adult, I have found myself toting around unwanted baggage that has had severe repercussions on the way I live every single day. Consequently, I have spent precious time, money, and energy drifting around from counselor to counselor trying to find a measure of desperately needed rest.
Just as I was on the verge of accepting my lot in life, I was referred to Ginger Stanfield by a family friend. I can confidently say that Ginger is the only counselor that has had any type of positive impact on me. Not only has she improved my mental and physical health; she has improved my relationship with the Lord. Through her standard strategy of addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual health, Ginger leaves nothing to chance.
Many health professionals only focus on one of these facets of health without realizing all three are interconnected. Thus, patients still find themselves struggling. Patients who find themselves in Ginger’s care will find release from this struggle and find real results.
For the first time in a long time, I am seeing improvements in all areas of my life. I am at rest, and am finally becoming the man I want to be. Please do not pass on Ginger. You will not regret making her your health care professional, and will finally find the one thing people crave above all else in this fast-paced and hectic world–peace. –Paul B.
I came to Ginger about 6 weeks postpartum with PPD and anxiety. I had tried praying, a holistic Passion flower extract, progesterone, and coming to Ginger was my last chance to get help without having to take an antidepressant. I was hoping for some relief from these really scary thoughts and feelings that seemed relentless and to not spiral when I had them.
My first time seeing her, she was able to diffuse the power of some of these thoughts by explaining how they come about and giving me some practical ways to force my body into a relaxed state. It was so refreshing to be able to be open about my thoughts and feelings with someone who understands the way the body functions so well that she didn’t think I was crazy and her first resort was not medication.
She was diligent in finding me a plethora of resources and has gone above and beyond to not only help me get through the depression and anxiety, but also to help me grow in my relationship with Jesus, restore my marriage, and improve my communication skills.
She is also helping me to become physically healthier by helping me restore my gut health with diet and supplements, and exercise. I felt hopeless and consumed by fear that nothing would be able to help me, but I’m so glad I pushed through and tried one more thing- Whole Story Wellness. I am beyond thankful for Ginger and her giant heart and I would recommend anyone that feels like hope is lost to push through the fear that nothing will work for you and try Whole Story Wellness. –Caitlin B.
I’m an educator and very used to approaching teaching and learning with the “Whole” child in mind. When I was recommended to Ginger and her business, “Whole Story Wellness”, I immediately felt like this could be the place for me. I have tried many things in my journey to wellness from Atkins to Optivia. All programs worked. No program lasted. Through Ginger, I am finally addressing the parts of my life that need healing so that I am able to make permanent changes. I am growing spiritually and healing both mentally and physically. I have more to do and know that I am well on my way to being well. –Alice S.
